Targeting Dolphin Status
My 2025 goal is to reach Dolphin status by end of year. To achieve Dolphin status you must have 10,000,000 Vests.
I currently have 6,080,300 from 6,068,071 Vests in week 4. This is an increase of 12,229 Vests so still like 3,919,700 Vests. Activity on the Hive blockchain while earning Hive translates into Vests. I am not very knowledgeable about how the back blockchain calculations regarding Hive Power or Vests work but only know that I need to target 10,000,000 Vests points to advance to the Dolphin status.
Progress is slow but I want to make sure I post each week to ensure that progress continues. The eighth full week of tracking my Hive Accumulation progress in 2025 has ended and it is now time to discover what progress was made.
I was able to accumulate 9.412 Hive and 0.742 HBD to my account resulting in a value of $3.45 USD this period (details below). This is progress during the last week however it could have been better.
Hive and HBD Accumulation
Below is a summary of the beginning and ending amounts for this week from which I calculated my Hive accumulation.
| Description | Beginning | Ending | Progress | Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Liquid Hive | 1.509 | 1.600 | 0.091 | $0.025 |
| Staked Hive | 3599.714 | 3609.035 | 9.321 | $2.619 |
| Liquid HBD | 20.639 | 21.072 | 0.433 | $0.449 |
| Staked HBD | 103.421 | 103.421 | 0.000 | $0.000 |
| Unclaimed HBD Interest | 0.035 | 0.344 | 0.309 | $0.357 |
| Total Progress | $3.45 |

Below are the details of the beginning and ending balances with associated screen shots to document the amount for future reference if needed.

I think tracking my ranking will also be of value when measuring my progress. I am currently ranked 2883 holder of Hive Power. By tracking this metric, I am hoping to move up in the ranking each and every week.
Alive Target
I have been able to grow my Alive and AliveM balances over the past three weeks.
Alive:
This period's balance - 23,004.2949
Last week's balance - 22,967.8497
Balanced increased - 36.4452
Actual increase: 36.4452 @ $0.00085 = $0.030
The Alive tokens increase was a lot less than I had hoped for from my online activity. I will need to work on my curation in the Alive community.
I am hoping to increase both my Alive and AliveM balance each week. However this week, I did not add to my balance.
AliveM:
Last week's balance - 11.628
This week's balance - 11.628
Balanced increased - 0.000
This week's balance:
Last period's balance:
Alive price mor than doubled which I found unexpected but happy that it happened. However the AliveM price did not trend in the same direction.
