🐝 Saturday Savers Update – Week 41 🐝

“Keep Jivin’ and Hivin’ dear #saturdaysavers!” 🎶

Another week down, another step forward! And a pretty nice one at that!

🚀 Growth Overview

This week showed solid progress, mainly thanks to buying a bit of the dip, which paid off beautifully in both Hive Power and token growth. It would've been even better, but due to all the Hive Engine issues, apparently 50 of my ordered HIVE.SWAP got stuck at Beeswap. Hope to see them again soon! The HP chart keeps climbing, and I'm now standing strong at 13,395 HP, getting ever closer to that 15K goal.

Metric	Last Week	This Week	Change
Hive Power	13,076 HP	13,395 HP	🔼 +319 HP
HBD	1,515	1,535	🔼 +20
EDSI	193	197	🔼 +4
BBHO	11,030	11,202	🔼 +172
BXT	402	403	🔼 +1
LEO	544	545	🔼 +1

💥 3 out of 6 yearly goals achieved, and the others are clearly within reach.

🧠 This Week in Hive (and Chaos)

This week wasn’t all sunshine and curation rewards, it was another “keeping the ship afloat” kind of week. Yes. Again.
Hive-Engine continued throwing tantrums (also yes, again), and one of the payout scripts decided to join the rebellion. The culprit? A rate-limit bug paired with a massive payout load(lots of people love Alive it seems!). Still, most systems ran smooth, and the few hiccups were quickly fixed (I hope).

On the human side of things…

The overall busy life period continues, pulling time away from daily Hive posting and engagement.
Replying to comments, sadly, still lagging behind. I see them all, I appreciate every one of them, and I’ll get back when life gives me some breathing room.
Walking: also took a backseat (those daily kilometers aren’t walking themselves, apparently).

But hey, even when things get hectic, the witnesses stayed online, the bots kept tipping, and the stack kept growing.

🛠️ Dev & Witness Corner

Botlord Network: all witnesses humming along nicely again — including the Hive-Engine node, despite all its drama.
Payout scripts: under review to better handle large batch limits; it’s like training a toddler to share toys, slow progress, but we’ll get there.
Future plans: preparing some code updates and optimizations for smoother delegation payouts and better resource management.

If you haven’t already, remember you can support the work by voting for @botlord on Ecency's Witness Page or PeakD’s Witness Page. Every vote helps keep this ecosystem strong. 💪

🌧️ Real Life Update

Between work pressure, Hive-Engine storms, and life being... life, this week tested the limits of multitasking. But I'm still standing. Still coding. Still stacking. And as always, still believing in the long game Hive offers: slow, steady, and beautifully decentralized.

Here’s to better weeks ahead, less chaos, and more curation!

Some weeks are about growth.
Some weeks are about survival.
This week? It was a bit of both.

The progress is real, the systems are holding, and the goals are still within sight.
As always: keep jivin’, keep hivin’, and keep stackin’! 🧡
