August 1st, 2021
The first one, and primary reason for doing them, is that it allows me to see where I have been, where I am going, and where I am falling short in my personal goals.
The second purpose they serve is to let people, new accounts and old, see an honest representation of an account built from scratch and not really knowing anything at all about cryptocurrency.
Next months report will just be the lower half of the table, I felt that only having one month data visible was not that valuable. HF 25 happened, there was a slight glitch for curation, but still I am very happy with seeing almost 100 HP earned from curation.
The other thing I am really pleased with is almost 155 HP total earned, I did manage to get a few more post out, but I feel a lot of it is because of comment votes, both directions. I have voted more comments and it seems I have received more votes on my comments.
As my account has grown and as the value of Hive has grown, I have been able to vote more on comments with out them be relegated to the dust vote pool. HF 25 has helped a lot in this respect, and I hope the new vote system stays in place for at least a year so we can get some real meaningful data from the change.
I imagine that curation will be a large part of my earnings going forward. A real life result of compounding interest, in this case compounding Hive Earnings by powering them up.
Unless something severe and drastic happens I am 90% sure I will be reaching my year end goal of 10,000 HP. I may have to at the end of the year sell a little of my Hive-Engine Holdings, and I will if needed.
Speaking of Hive-Engine Holdings:
These are what I see as Investment Holdings, those tokens that provide a dividend or small drips of other tokens. At the beginning of the year along with my 10,000 HP goal I set a goal of finally getting to 100 SPI. That was my goal when I first purchased them last year, it took a while to acquire them. There were other things coming on the scene like ArchonM, then LBI, and as I got to my 100 SPI along came CL (CubLife).
Since CL, EDS and its miner caught my eye, and not depicted on the chart Dhedgefund. (Dhedge will be added once I am able to get the information added to my speadsheets). INDEX was another that caught my eye as an income type fund, and then the newest member on my radar was BRO.
All of these provide drips or dividends. Goal wise I want to get to 10 ArchonM and 10 EDS Miners. My SPI, and LBI, will grow on their own without further investment for now. BRO coin will be my next focus as I would like to gradually get it up to 100 tokens also, that may be a multi year operation, but I will get there. CL has been doing so well I want to continue to invest while the investment cost are not that extreme.
Not as active as I have been in commenting, but even though down a little bit compared to the beginning of the year not a bad place. I do hope to arrest the commenting fall this month, but it is summer and coming to an end pretty soon in Alaska.
I did do better in the posting department this month and I hope to sustain that and possible add to it a little bit this month, We just have to see where time, effort and mood take me.
Pretty self explanitory, this is how many comments I made for the month. as you can see there were a few days of not much activity. While the month started out okay it quickly fizzled out.
On a weekly basis I am back in the moving up trend, hopefully it will stay that way. I would be real nice if it stabilized at the 100 comments a week line but I will be happy just to keep above the 70 comments a week line.
What can I say, at least I have not fallen off the chart like back in January. I would however like to get back to in the 20-35 rank area, but as long as I don't fall off the world mid point is better than no point.
I missed the first month of collecting a bee badge, after the first month they made it much easier to get a badge. I have all bee level badges except one and that is the 1000 Hive powered up one. It will take me awhile to get there.
There are a lot of things I want to spend some of my Hive on internally. I have my delegation account that needed some funds, I have my recurring buy CL, and there is the every now and then transfer to Ionomy or to Hive-Engine to play with.
Helping others build and grow socially on Hive is an important part of being an active Hive Supporter. I know it is not easy to find new people, when you do a slight boost on HUPD to an individual would be nice, this month I was unable but have in the past.
If you are not really a content creator but love looking at, reading and interacting with post, you may want to take a look at his idea also. It is still a work in progress, but a worthy one, so take a look.
I am looking forward to the end of August and a careful evaluation of HF 25 and its' effects on curation. My voting stays pretty consistent, will the curation rewards in August be close to those in July? Pre hard fork I would average about 2.0 Hive a day for curation, this week it was pretty steady at 3.5 Hive a day, so I hope that is the number that holds.
That is pretty much it for this months review, I hope you all had a good HUPD and a banner earning month also.
