🚀 Saturday Savers Update – Week 39 🚀

Another week gone, another chance to look back and share some progress — even if it felt like pushing through quicksand at times.

💻 The Week in Dev & Bots

This was yet another Hive-Engine-challenged week. New rate limits required quick adjustments, so I rolled out the abuse-hardened tipping bot code across all my bots: 👉 Building Tipping Bots That Tip

On top of that, I started reworking the Alive Tribe payout scripts to hand out the new tokens after the LOLZ events. Early tests worked but still need fine-tuning to deal with the same rate limits.

Meanwhile, my Hive Earnings tool (https://hiveearnings.botlord.eu/) needs its own round of rate-limit adjustments. It’s currently offline, but that’s high on the to-do list once the payout scripts are stable.

🐝 Witness Update

Despite all the storms on Hive-Engine, all three @botlord witnesses –

…are humming along smoothly.

📈 Progress on Stacking

Even in a week that felt like triage, progress continued.

I hit 66% of my 2025 Hive Power goal, which is a morale booster.
HBD keeps growing steadily! With the monthly interest, I’m already past the 2025 HBD target and now eyeing 2,500 HBD as the next milestone.
Reshuffled delegations are really paying off, as seen in the improved curation rewards.
Other tokens mostly held steady, but goals are already reached, except for BXT and EDSI, which still need attention.

🥂 Reflections

Last week was a juggling act between work, Hive, and recovering from illness. I couldn’t post daily, and my walking routine also took a hit. Still, it’s about consistency over perfection, and that’s what keeps the stacks growing.

On the bright si de, delegation reshuffles and the steady witness performance show that the strategy is working even during slow weeks.

📊 Week 39 Highlights

Hive Power: up to 12,730 HP (66% of the 2025 goal!)
HBD: steady at 1,507 HBD, interest payout already banked
EDSI: slow but moving – now 188 EDSI
BXT: climbing to 393 BXT
LEO: steady at 544 LEO
Curation rewards: improving thanks to the delegation reshuffle

TL;DR:

Even in a week with rate-limit chaos, illness, and less posting, progress continued. 🐝 Strategy and consistency are the real heroes of long-term saving.
