I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
With the recent wave of layer-2 projects failing and teetering on the edge, I've had to strongly reassess certain of my investments in layer 2, which I've been mentioning in recent posts. As of today I've recalled all layer-1 and layer-2 delegations from the DHEDGE project, which appears to be defunct. I'm keeping an eye on @pgm-curator, as both the tipping command and delegation payouts stopped two weeks ago, though the account is still curating. The Alive Tribe is a bit shaky with Erik gone for so long, and the last delegation payouts being a month ago at this point. The CTP project is still in question, with word of a change in leadership. The DUNK token and community are apparently dead. This sort of thing seems pretty common at the moment, and as much as I love layer-2 and its multitudinous projects, in terms of investing, especially over time, it's pretty undependable and unreliable, which makes me much, much, much more picky about projects to which I allocate assets.
Since layer-2 projects are more unstable at the moment, I'm giving much more focus to my layer-1 investments, namely Hive Power and HBD in Savings. Both are growing at a reasonably good pace with me just doing what I'm doing now. The one area where layer-2 investing is much more dependable and reliable presently, with huge potential to grow assets, is in layer-2 trading on Hive Engine. Presently I have 19.3 LTC, grown from the original 18.2 LTC, that I'm now waiting to sell. With intelligent and patient trading, I can clearly see that I have an strong potential of growing my assets there immensely, which of course would make it possible to then pour ever-larger amounts of profit into my Hive Power and HBD in Savings.
Consistent giant leaps in HP and HBD in Savings is the idea, and one that I believe that I'll be able to implement fairly soon, based on how I'm leveraging assets that I presently have available now. This opens the door to reaching orca level in the not-too-distant future. The door to whale level is even beginning to creak open a bit.
I will, of course, still be investing in layer-2, but I'll be doing do so in demonstratably consistent, dependable, and reliable projects. Only one individual running a project is no longer a viable investment option for me, because if s/he disappears, the project abruptly ends, and I've been tasting the bitterness of that for too many months now. If I ever start a project on Hive, I intend to make absolutely certain that I have a team of passionate, dedicated, and committed Hivers/Hivians to help me, because I want it to be done with excellence, and to last, which would benefit and help stabilize the whole Blockchain.
It was cloudy and rainy all day yesterday, Thursday, so I didn't get any work outside done, unfortunately. I did clean in the Landing for a while, though, after straining out kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, to at least get something useful done. After cleaning in the Landing, I shared conversation and food with Sapir, which was nice. After my time with Sapir, I returned to the Flow House, to get to my evening round of Hive tasks and catching up on notifications. Since I worked on catching up on my norifications in the afternoon for a bit, and because I started a little early, I was able to get fully caught up on my notifications by just before 10:30PM. After some token management and scanning my X feed, I went to bed a little after 12:15AM, sleeping well thankfully, waking up around 7:30AM, doing more token management, and then getting out of bed just after 8:30AM to go make my superfood fire coffee.
It's just before 1:15PM now, so it's a marvelous time to end this post, so that I can get to a few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first strain out and blend kefir, take photos for tomorrow's iteration of this post, and then land work. I deeply appreciate you all so very much! Until tomorrow! Forward, onward, and upward, joyfully together! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
