Ownership(@ownershipfm):HiveBits founder Nemanja explains what actually gets tokenized and how it works "When we started the whole idea, the first thing was how we can be transparent, and how we can let the community participate, be part of this whole process. I believe other agriculture branches who want to do similar things need to solve that issue." "In the beekeeping industry people already use different kinds of hardware to measure how much honey they will produce, hive health, all of this. So we decided this is a good start, and we used some existing concepts and upgraded them a bit on our side. We moved it to the next generation." "People always ask what we're tokenizing. Practically we tokenize the whole operation, but in general what we're tokenizing is the beehive, one by one. And why is that interesting? Because a beehive is alive, and it produces every year. Honey, propolis, even bee venom. It also produces other bees, and there's a market for that, where you can catch the swarm and sell it to other beekeepers." "All of these details, how much honey we're going to produce, is the harvest going well or not, we can get through this information. The main goal for us is to optimize the current work we have, because approximately one full-time beekeeper can manage 300 beehives, and with this hardware we can go up to 500."

Ownership Report #17#: HiveBits (@hivebits_io) HiveBits is tokenizing beehives, and we got founder Nemanja (@0xbeesmart) on right after their @futarddotio ICO and a roadshow win. Every hive is a node: real bees on top, an IoT device underneath streaming honey yield, hive health and harvest conditions. That hardware takes one beekeeper from 300 hives to 500, and the same data feeds researchers working on colony collapse disorder. The revenue is not just honey either, there is propolis, swarms sold to other beekeepers, and bee venom feeding an $80 billion natural cosmetics market. Plus three pivots, 50 hives presold in Belgrade, and why @MetaDAOProject was the structure that finally fit. Full breakdown below: 0:00 Welcome and what HiveBits is building 1:59 Why beekeeping is usually in your DNA 2:44 From software engineering to hive as a node 3:45 What it actually takes to tokenize a beehive 6:11 Taking one beekeeper from 300 hives to 500 6:45 Bee venom, the king of all bee products 8:29 Three pivots, and the first 50 hives sold in Belgrade 10:31 The farm in Bosnia and the apitherapy center in Serbia 12:41 Colony collapse disorder and 30 percent fewer bees 14:46 Bad seasons, five year averages and data driven beekeeping 16:36 Scaling horizontally, vertically, and through other beekeepers 18:08 Why Western Europe, honey prices and fake honey 19:24 Why MetaDAO and why futarchy 21:50 How the ICO actually went 23:05 Is futarchy founder unfriendly 25:56 What he is most looking forward to Hosted by @8bitpenis Produced by @BlockformerLLC Powered by @MetaDAOProject & @UmbraPrivacy
