I’m firmly in the buy and hold camp. Trading can be exciting, sure, but I think investing in crypto works best when it’s simple, pick a solid project, build a position over time, and let compounding plus cycles do the heavy lifting for the next 5–10 years. Look at the Satoshi era Bitcoin holders, many of them won because they were patient, not because they nailed every top and bottom. That’s the mindset I’m choosing to keep.
I’m applying the same principle to my Hive journey. My plan is straightforward, keep building Hive Power and grow it steadily for the long term. Why overcomplicate it with constant pivots when the platform itself rewards consistency? Post, curate, reinvest. Rinse, repeat. If I show up with quality and discipline, my stake should keep working a little harder for me each week. That’s a flywheel I can understand.
Will there be drawdowns? Absolutely. Sentiment will swing, alts will rotate, and some seasons will test patience. But I’d rather be the investor who survives the chop than the trader who gets chopped up. The edge I’m leaning on isn’t timing, it’s time in, paired with routines, a publishing cadence I can keep, curation that compounds relationships, and periodic power ups that set a baseline for growth. Measured optimism beats hopium every time.
So here’s my simple playbook,
If you’re reading this and feeling behind, you’re not. The market always offers another cycle to the prepared. My focus now is building an engine, not chasing a moment, an engine that turns effort into stake, stake into influence, and influence into opportunity. I’ll keep showing up, stacking Hive Power, and letting time and consistency do their quiet work. See you on the next HPUD, with a little more skin in the game and the same long term lens.
I love taking photos of anything and then share them in my blog. However, I also want to share about my investing journey here in the Hive Blockchain and share my thoughts about crypto & finance.
