Steem was co-founded in January 2016 by Ned Scott and Dan Larimer. By March, the Steem blockchain was launched, and the whitepaper was published. The platform issued its first rewards in July 2016, which led to a significant price surge. Over the years, it faced challenges, including financial difficulties during the cryptocurrency crash in 2018 and staff layoffs. In 2020, Steem underwent a successful fork, resulting in the creation of the HIVE blockchain, which introduced new features and improvements to the original Steem blockchain.
