This week’s update comes with some nice milestones, feature builds, and exciting steps toward empowering both newcomers and veterans on Hive. Let’s roll 👇
🧼 TL;DR
Crossed the 10K Hive Power milestone! 💥 Was a guest on the Hive Humpday Hangout 🗣️ Added a currency toggle to Hive Earnings 💶⇄💵 Started building the Newcomer Tool 🛠️ Continued stacking in Pools, especially BXT & Workerbee 🐝 And powered up another 50HP on the 1st! 💪
🎉 What Did I Do This Week?
🎙️ I was invited as a guest in the Hive Humpday Hangout – great vibes and even greater conversations.
💪 I crossed the 10,000 HP milestone, a third of the way toward my year-end 15K goal!
That post is here:
@borniet/the-day-i-became-a🧮 I added a handy currency switch to the Hive Earnings tool, so now you can flip between HIVE, USD, and EUR to see what your efforts are worth in your local caffeine tokens ☕💸
🌱 Kicked off development of a Newcomer Onboarding Tool, born from the brainstorm led by
@godfish during HHH. More news on this soon™️.
🔋 Took part in Hive Power Up Day by stacking another 50 HP on June 1st:
📊 Progress This Week
Metric | This Week | Change |
|---|---|---|
Hive Power | 9987 → 10086 | 🔼 +99 HP |
EDSI | 80 → 82 | 🔼 +2 |
BBHO | 5739 → 6290 | 🔼 +551 |
BXT | 264 → 264 | ➖ (but +32 extra in Pool!) |
LEO | 527 → 528 | 🔼 +1 |
📍 Technically, I didn't hit the Hive Weekly Goal (just under at 99/1148), but I smashed other metrics — especially BBHO , BXT and EDSI, and that's worth celebrating!
🌊 Pool Strategy
Still deep in the pools strategy. Highlights:
Continuing to stack in:
DVS:DHEDGE,SWAP.HIVE:PWR,SWAP.HIVE:ATF,ATX:SWAP.HIVE, and now alsoBXT:SWAP.HIVE.Started building into the
BEE:WORKERBEEpool too. Layer 2 farming is slow but steady and it keeps the token flow active.
And yep, instead of staking directly, I’m funneling BXT into the pool where it generates more BXT, and I just added 32 extra to boost that strategy.
🛠️ Dev + Bots
The Hive Earnings tool saw its first UX improvement with currency toggle. Hive-Engine earnings integration is still… uhm… a “work in limbo” 😅
On the bot side, I continued polishing the weekly summary posts, which are now handled entirely by
@mmbbot. Daily posts are gone. Layout tweaks and future features are queued up. The weekly summary posts seem to be generally liked and appreciated, so that's a good thing! Now hoping that the downvoting stops! (if you read this@markymark or
@buildawhale - pretty please? We've been more than trying to comply! And still open to suggestions to improve as well!)
🔮 Looking Ahead
Crack the Hive-Engine token sync.
More dev on the newcomer tool (name suggestions are welcome!).
Continue optimizing pools.
Possibly release more open-source code for Hive tool devs (I see you, fellow nerds 👀, but can't promise it's for the coming weeks).
Enjoy the long Ascension weekend with the family 🌳 (Prio 1)

Onward, Savers! Let’s keep building that sweet compounding future 🔥
