Although Bitcoin has hit new heights the $HIVE price has not changed much this week. It had a bit of a dip and is slowly recovering from that. I know some in the crypto world think that Trump will give it a boost, but I do not trust anything he says. That liar is all about his own ego and will say what it takes to make at least some people like him. I could be wrong on the crypto aspect, but it may depend on what people behind him want. I know he launched his own coin, but that was probably more about making him money like his bible and tacky shoes. I am not a fan as I think his divisive tactics are bad for America and the world. He sucks up to dictators and aspires to be one as well as enabling people who spread hate.

I saw a case this week of someone doing several short posts each day, some with just a few words. That sort of thing does not go down well on Hive. It is seen as low value any may still attract automatic votes. We now have several ways to post short content via comments (InLeo Threads, Ecency Waves, Peakd Snaps) that are better suited for this and may actually reach a wider audience. You are free to do what you want on Hive, but prepare to be judged on it. There are those who will vote you down if they see you as exploiting the platform whilst not adding value.
I do think that people should be given a chance to change their ways and I am against holding grudges. That tends to be unhealthy. Just remember that anything you put on this blockchain is there forever. Even if you edit the old versions are still there.
Here in the northern hemisphere we are heading into winter. Maybe I need to run a mining rig to generate some heat. I have noticed that my solar panels are generating less power now, but the battery can still save me money. I hope that Hive can help to keep your spirits up through the long nights. Find your community and keep the engagement going. Hive is about people and not just money. Some of your friends may want to get off corporate social media and so bring them here. If you need to create accounts for them then I may be able to help as I can claim lots of them.
Hive five!
