Everything about 1Hive, Honey/HNY, and xDAI in one place
So you heard about xDAI, HNY and 1Hive and are looking to get into the Hive.
1) Welcome to 1Hive.
2) The Hive is really, really, new, expect to encounter issues and bugs.
- Discorse 1Hive Help/Support Thread - 1Hive Help/Support Thread
- Discord 1Hive #help - https://discord.gg/cMemuJ
3) DO NOT move money in here that you can’t afford to lose. This is a standard warning that should be on every crypto site. You can lose everything due to smart contract bugs, accidents, hacks, you name it. DO NOT consider your funds in cryptoland to be safe, secure or insured. THEY AREN’T if you lose everything no-one is responsible and you won’t get any compensation.
4) Finally I am a person learning this like you. While it is my personal goal to make this page accurate and up to date there may be errors, inaccuracies, changes to things I have not kept up on. I am not responsible if things don’t work, this is a guide not a manual. It is my view of 1Hive for reference puroposes only not a defnitive work. This document should not be construed as financial advice, by using this guide you hearby absolve me and 1Hive, xDAI, etc. personally of any responsibility both criminal or financial if you lose funds.
Now that is out of the way lets get to the basics.
Introduction to xDAI:
1Hive is a DAO that lives on xDAI network, it issues and distributes Honey the 1Hive token. There isn’t any direct relationship, but both 1Hive and xDAI benefit when more stuff happens on xDAI.
xDAI is a Proof of Stake network where transactions are validated using a POS model. I am still learning this. Just keep in mind while 1Hive has a stake in and will help with xDAI issues they are not xDAI just as xDAI may help with 1Hive issues but they are not 1Hive there are two distinct development teams working in loose cooperation.
To learn about xDAI

xDAI faucet for xDAI - in case you need an xDAI fee. People who want to contribute to this just top up the address with .5-1xDAI when people say it has run out and watch for abuse.
@luigy put up a new xDAI faucet in case like me you forgot to keep any xDAI in your wallet for transactions and just need some xDAI.
xDAI - 0.01 xDAI faucet for people
We talked about donations for this but given the lack of security figured it was better to keep the amount there low and everyone who was going to donate just top it up with .1-.5 xDAI when people complain the faucet is empty.
To top up the faucet send xDAI to 0xfee00f40bFCf78B664063319912f82BE11ea32Ad - but don’t send more than .5-1xDAI at any time.
FYI: Regarding gwei settings for xDAI tx’s these can be as low as .001, .000001, even .0000000000000001 you don’t need 1gwei to get a xDAI tx to be validated at least ‘not yet’. Enjoy the amazingly low fees and snappy transaction times while they last!
Introduction to 1HIVE
Taken from current FAQ at https://hackmd.io/FV5l6ZH1Spib8msTYHCIzw. 1Hive is an open community, you don’t need to ask permission to join or become a member. If you see something you think should be improved, you can make a proposal to get honey to make it happen, or you can make it happen and get Pollen from doing it (which will convert to Honey via sourceCred see below).

How to buy Honey tokens with xDAI on Honeyswap
Tuitorial - https://medium.com/@whitecolidon/honey-token-how-to-buy-it-c48802e2e881
Covering the following important steps:
- Mainnet L1 side wallet setup to have ETH and DAI (one of a number of prerequisites)
- Using and Mainnet L1 transaction to convert DAI on Mainnet to xDAI on xDAI net side of network (Step 2).
- Using POA Bridge https://xdai-omnibridge.web.app/
- Using POA Bridge if UI is NOSYM or down - Transferring without the bridge UI: https://www.xdaichain.com/for-users/converting-xdai-via-bridge/transfer-sai-dai-without-the-ui-using-web3-or-mobile-wallet#transfer-dai-from-the-ethereum-mainnet-to-the-xdai-chain
- ?? other
- RPC change to connect wallet (Step 1)
- RPC URL: https//xdai.1hive.org(should be faster) or xdai.poanetwork.dev (can be slower)
- ChainID: 100
- Symbol: xDAI
- Block Explorer URL: https://blockscout.com/poa/xdai
- Buying HNY with xDAI on Honeyswap a port of uniswap v2.
- Swap - https://honeyswap.org/#/swap - Swap interface to exchange one token for another.
- Pool - https://honeyswap.org/#/pool - Pool interface to become a Honeyswap liquidity provider.
NOTE: I add a few important points in conjunction with the above:
- Keep ETH/ETH+DAI in ETH L1 wallet side to power mainnet tx’s in/out of xDAI bridge.
- Keep xDAI/xDAI+HNY in xDAI L2 wallet side to power xDAI tx’s on xDAI network.
- Gas price estimation can be wrong - you should never need to use anything over 1gwei on the xDAI network so far. Transactions will validate even with .001 or less gwei which means very low cost transactions.
- Many wallets will show the tx cost in “Eth” which is “xDAI” on the xDAI network
HoneyComb - 1Hive Liquidity Farming Status Update
- An issue came up with conviction voting that has delayed 1Hive Honeycomb until somewhere around 20201010-12. Read about it here: https://about.1hive.org/blog/honey-land/
- Also developers of HoneyComb have asked people to pull their honeyswap stakes out of hny.farm until HoneyComb is complete.

1Hive Honey faucet - first way to get Honey!
https://faucet.1hive.org - Place where once you can receive HNY every two days just for proving you are a person (See BrightID below) and clicking.
-
How to get BrightID verified.
- https://www.brightid.org/ - install BrightID application on your desktop or phone.
- https://brightid.gitbook.io/brightid/ - User tutorial.
- https://brightid.org/meet - participate in a BrightID meetup is the best way to get enough connections and groups to get verified. NOTE: This step took me up to 8hrs after I did my first meet before being verified. I am told the network adds people faster now. DO NOT spam your brightID connects to people and only verify people who you have seen and talked to via video/audio to your connections. Our job as the verifiers is to make sure people are people and not just a link on a screen. You can do more than 1 meet and your score is a 0-100 which I am told is a percent chance you are human. Goal in a meet is to get like 20 or more connections and joined to 5 or more groups. Once you do this you can connect the BrightID QR code on the faucet to your verified ID and you will then be verified to use the faucet. If you scan the QR code first before verifying you will see a message that says “waiting to be BrightID verified” or something like this.
- Once you are verified you then can click on the faucet but you will only be registered. Then you have to wait until up to 2 days pass and then you will be able to click on the faucet to receive free Honey. You must do this every period or re-register. Consider this button one that assures you are around to collect your Honey every two days or it resets and you have to re-register and wait up to 2 days again before being able to receive Honey.

How to connect our accounts to get pollen.
In discord onboarding https://discord.gg/ymwsHE use the following to signal to @sandpiper or the bot to add you to the pollen list as follows:
- Example !join
*!join
Discord: RogueTwo#6155
discourse: Eth_Man
github: 1HiveMan
wallet: 0xccb78FE2dAc3349CA4415815A74e960FDae53355
The above will be picked up and added to the sourceCred pollen weekly Honey distributions based on the amount of grain/pollen you earned for the week. This is being worked on.
More about sourceCred generally.

How do people get colored nicknames in discord?
Once you are BrightID verified you can then connect the discord application under your username to BrightID. You do this by sending a !verify message in #onboarding and if you have allowed messages the BrightID_Bot should send you a message back with a BrightID link. Add this BrightID link (like you would a BrightID user) and if you are brightID verified you should in a few minutes show ‘verified’ under your now “orange” username.
How do I get a green nickname in discord and the “Honey” Role?
Finally people have green names and this is because collab.land adds you and you will get a Honey badge I think if you have 1HNY or more in the above wallet. This part I am still a little confused on because the collab.land bot has not been working well. I or someone else will add info here.

About Honey/$HNY distributions from beginning to current.
-
Initial distribution transferred from ruinkeby test net to main net -
https://rinkeby.etherscan.io/token/0x4a7683282053ff1e2381cc1663fb04fbbcd18350#balances - -
As the community developed on Eth the distribution changed a bit. This was the final distribution once they switched to xdai chain - https://client.aragon.org/#/beehive/0x40740b2b63d835119acc417309c59bde9e5c43e3/
-
Finally after the faucet and different Dao distribution we reach this point -https://blockscout.com/poa/xdai/tokens/0x71850b7e9ee3f13ab46d67167341e4bdc905eef9/token-holders?address_hash=0x2f5170deea823099d75f200ae0524b30c3701881&value=3000000000000000000
In conclusion.
The above is pretty much everything I have on 1Hive. If people see things that are inaccurate or need to be changed please post them below and by helping me you help us make this FAQ better. Eventually if we get something good going here it might make its way to the FAQ proper.
My goal was simply to have one place where people could find just about anything they wanted regarding xDAI, 1Hive, Honey, BrightID, sourceCred, etc.
Welcome to the Hive everyone and if you want more Honey than the faucet can provide - get to work in the fields (discord, discourse, github after doing the !join in discord #onboarding) bringing home the nectar. Be patient on being added as so far this is being done manually by @sandpiper.
