Today I want to talk a bit about #Hive.

The recent deep drop across the entire crypto market made me stop and think.
Is there really a future for cryptocurrencies? Am I still on the right path?

Iโ€™ve been buying Hive over different years, at very different prices. And, as you can probably guess, I never bought it at $0.06272 (according to #CoinGecko, just one day ago). I honestly never imagined we would end up here. Naturally, my investments are deep in the red right now.

Still, I used what remained of my funds to buy more coins, roughly around $0.07.
I could have spent that money on myself, on family trips, or simply put it into one of the top-10 coins. Instead, I chose to stick with Hive.

Not because itโ€™s fashionable.
Not because itโ€™s profitable right now.
But because I still believe in this network.

What I donโ€™t see here is panic. And that matters.
Those who remain are people who understand why they came in the first place โ€” and who believe in slow, steady, and resilient development rather than quick hype.

Yes, there are problems.
Yes, there are open questions.
But Iโ€™m convinced that the right path will eventually be found.

From time to time, I reread a set of rules I came across many years ago. Iโ€™m not even sure if they originally existed in English โ€” I only had them in Russian. Below is my translation, as close to the original meaning as possible.


Rules I Keep Coming Back To

Every coin is a soldier of your freedom. Donโ€™t drain your army on nonsense.

IMG_4658.jpg

First, pay yourself โ€” then everyone else.

IMG_4659.jpg

Those who get rich are not the ones who earn a lot, but the ones who manage their money properly.

IMG_4660.jpg

Money must work, not lie idle.

IMG_4661.jpg

Greed is stupidity. But generosity without wisdom is even worse.

IMG_4662.jpg

Want gold? Learn patience and discipline.

IMG_4663.jpg

True wealth is built in crisis, not in comfort.

IMG_4660.jpg

A financial cushion is not a luxury โ€” it is a necessity.

IMG_4665.jpg

Check every investment โ€” even if itโ€™s your best friend.


Maybe this will help someone make a clearer decision.
Or at least pause and think twice.


I write my texts myself, correct mistakes and translate via ChatGPT (which is not a violation on Hive)!
All photos were taken by me personally - I am a beginner photographer, so I ask professionals not to judge strictly.


Thank you for sharing these moments with me! Until new stories and new holidays! โœŒ๏ธ.
