Coming tomorrow, Dane. It's complex. Still getting my head around a few things.

I had Dot for a while then I sold it but I think it has a lot of potential we will see the next few times.

I still have DOT. Not sure why but it is way up from where I invested so HODLing.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think you're doing well I'm in other investments now but I think Dot is a great coin and a good investment.

Hopefully. They need to step up a little in my humble opinion because I don't know many DApps building on it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, at the time I sell to bet on m or it's new, still with low values ​​but with a good project.

All good Fing. Just checking in ;)

Don't worry. I got this. 😎

Maybe next go-around we may want to take a look at PulseChain. Seems to be some buzz about it going on. Closely tied to the founder of $HEX, Richard Heart. I have been doing some research at @dagger212's urging.

I do have a very small amount of ETH and ERC-20 shit-coins so; taking a look at this new project .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Not sure what that is but I've been hearing stuff about it so it could be a good move indeed

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

HEX folksYes. It does seem that @dagger212 is very bullish on this project. are really big on their coin and it looks like it is paying off from the looks of the @coingecko chart I shared.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The ETH won't matter much but the ERC20s may get duplicated if they're in wallets for which you hold the keys, i.e. metamask.

HEX is basically CDs on the blockchain. Buy HEX, stake it for 1-5555 days, earn interest over that timeframe, and then when it comes due, end the stake and mint the HEX plus interest back into your account. The longer you stake, the higher the interest you are paid. 5555 (@15 yrs) pays around 40%. So if you staked 10,000 HEX, in 15 years you'd get roughly another 60,000 HEX when you ended your stake plus your principle. So 10k could turn into 70k. Meanwhile, the price of HEX could appreciate (and has) while you're locked up so by the time you come out, it could be worth substantially more than when you put in.

People who end their stakes early get penalized for going back on their word and much of the interest they've earned gets paid to the stakers who haven't gone back on their word. The idea is to build a ladder of different stake lengths so that you can always be cashing them out along the way. The interest you are paid for shorter stakes is obviously much less, but it's still waaay better than you can get at a bank. Like one year stakes can pay around 15%. And again, that doesn't include price appreciation which has been crazy to say the least and just keeps going.

The reason PulseChain is happening is because you have to pay gas fees to begin and end your stakes since HEX is an ERC20 token. Richard Heart got tired of watching people staking small amounts of HEX having to basically pay large percentages of their gains in gas fees, so he decided to do something about it.

He's forking the entire Ethereum chain, ERC20's and all, and creating pERC20's (Pulse ERC20s) on the new chain. He did a sacrifice phase where people sent literally millions of dollars of coins/tokens that they will never have access to again, including $27M+ to a charity doing research to cure aging. In doing this, those people will receive 10,000 PULSE for every dollar sacrificed. PULSE will be the gas on the PulseChain. There will literally be over 1 trillion of these tokens valued at zero when they are distributed. Price discovery will happen after that but, it's a POS network rather than POW so fees will literally be in pennies or even less.

Once it starts running, the ERC20s will be duplicated (including any HEX and/or HEX stakes you have) onto the new chain and then price discovery will happen from there. It's going to be very interesting since transacting on PULSE will be almost free compared to transacting on ETH. It will also be cheaper to build on the chain and there will be a built in fanatical base of users right out of the gate.

In my opinion, it was worth gambling on and still is. I just added three more stakes yesterday and plan on adding a few more over the coming weeks. At some point there will be a snapshot taken of the ETH chain and most of the ERC20's people have NOT ON CENTRALIZED EXCHANGES will be copied onto the PulseChain when it goes live. Some shit-coins will not be copied but most will. The big thing though is that your stakes will be copied. So, for instance, if you put $1000 into HEX and staked it for 5 years, when the new Pulsechain comes out, you'll have a $1000 5 year stake on pHEX as well. If Pulse ends up failing, which it could (although I don't think it will), you've lost nothing. But if it works....you just doubled your money PLUS the price appreciation. The numbers get pretty nuts.

I'd recommend listening to a few of Richard Heart's YouTube videos. The guy is a little arrogant but...he's been nothing but right for a long time.

Add another 1 comment onto my LMT total, please. lol

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hell, this comment would be a post! Copy and post and @hivewatchers be damned. 😂

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Something is definitely going on with this $HEX. Is it tied to the PulseChain project? Hype? Only speculators know for sure!

HEX Price Today Coingecko

Clicking the image above will take you to @coingecko's site

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's both. There will be a snapshot coming before the Pulsechain goes live and any HEX you own or have staked at the time will be duplicated on the new chain.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Interesting and it's worth a look for sure

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I can cover: Avalanche crypto (AVAX) pros and cons
but that would be tomorrow. Is that okay?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That would be great.

Looking forward to seeing your post :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

A little behind schedule, sorry! I'll try to get it done over the weekend!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

All good man, just checking in :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

And I have no freaking idea about Avalanche. Now I will. 😂

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Gas and BTC miners meet up. I don't know but they are talking about using stranded gas but I don't know too much about it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think this sums it up best.

Bitcoin miners care most about finding cheap sources of electricity, so Texas – with its crypto-friendly politicians, deregulated power grid, and crucially, abundance of inexpensive power sources – is a virtually perfect fit. The union becomes even more harmonious when miners connect their rigs to otherwise stranded energy, like natural gas going to waste on oil fields across Texas.

That is where the real key is: they are tapping into stranded reserves. Now turning it into something practical.

Imagine if Texas does take up most of the Chinese Bitcoin mining.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I think it's a smart idea but I am unsure what would be stranded or not.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Pretty sure that natural gas deposits on these oil fields go unused and undeveloped, and actually are completely wasted by the oil companies because there's not enough demand to justify the cost of pulling it out of the ground. Having the miners right there to use it would solve problems for both sides and could potentially be mega-profitable.

The only thing I see that could be negative is I would hate to have to worry about the Bitcoin price due to a hurricane shutting down miners for days. I wouldn't think they'd be as susceptible to that as oil rigs but...

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I thought of GAS as in GAS Fees. 😂

Anyway, I don't think this method would be pollution-free.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol it's something people worry about in crypto but it was more for the general public.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We all tend to become environmentalists when it comes to crypto. It's the trend. 😂

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's not pollution free, but these days it's cleaner than what it would have been even 10 years ago.

It's harder to go from 1% emissions to 0% emissions than it is to go from 100% emissions to 1% emissions. At that point, we encounter the law of diminishing returns; getting that final 1% is not worth the effort, time, or opportunity costs.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Excellent point. Most people ignore that but we're a lot better than before and it's still going to take a long time for us to be reduce the level of emissions we have right now

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's a valid point. We are producing far more value by using the resource so I guess it makes sense for them to explore this.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am very optimistic with Hive I believe that the growth of games and new applications to come can place it at $ 10 in the medium term. With Leo I am even more optimistic.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It was really good even if the hive reached 5 dollars it was a big leap I pray for that.

We need to get to a dollar, sustained, first.

Either way, I think it is a when, not if, for $5 hive.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

5$ is my take too in 2025 .

1$ is a great price to be honest .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

$1 then $5 then $10. Slowly and steadily Hive will win the race. The same goes with LEO. It's a never-ending race and nobody knows for sure what's going to happen 5 years down the line. If I look at the pace of development going on this blockchain, then we are doing so great and $10 will be a reality once a day. Games will definitely play a major role.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am optimistic long term on both of them. For me, I dont see a sustained run in Hive right now but the markets could act differently.

Since I am all in on the development pushing things higher, that is what I will stick with.

We need more development.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, I agree with you.

I think all the development that's been going on is really going to help drive the prices high.

I'm not sure if $10 is coming in the medium term, but then again, not really too worried about it because I'm in for the long run any ways

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The goal I want to see is the 5-5-5 club pushed by taskmaster. $5 HIVE, $5 LEO and $5.

Either way, there is a lot of potential with all three.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Indeed this is something that I am not surprised about because Hive has attracted a lot of attention to itself and this is something that people will be very comfortable with as long term hodlers

The development on Hive is really going well. We are seeing a lot of things coming.

It seems @dcrops is gaining some popularity at least on Hive. Hopefully they start attracting newer users.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes I am long term. I'm accumulating to see if the hive arrives in about 2 or 3 years and 5$dollars

Awesome . It pays to hodl for long just like what is happening with Solana. People bought it when the price was still in cents

Yes people bought. But I think solana its a good coin

I am going into HIVE for the long term. Overall I see HIVE higher in the future and I think many of the people taking profits are also planning on doing so on a short term basis.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's good , I too is planning on doing so and I believe I will be able to benefit from long term hodl in the end

3speak replied to this on Twitter and said it could integrate into what they are building.

Might be worth reading about.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Another angle from 3speak that I have no idea about...

I really hope that 3speak cleats up their messaging as we get closer to their full network launch.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Haha yea me too!

I think they could do a whole congress on it because it's such a huge and complex project!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah there isnt much of a message right now. It is more just a few hints of information here and there although some insight is given on Dan and Matt's new podcast.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Do you know when's the launch? Any date or approximate idea?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well it seems like they are focused on data streaming so it seems like something up their alley. I'll wait till I see the actual integration.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I saw that tweet but did not go down the rabbit hole. Maybe since you mention it, I will take a look. Might be important!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Could be. Not sure they would arbitrarily mention it but it is possible.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Built on IPFS, Ceramic is a decentralized, open source platform for creating, hosting, and sharing data.

Sounds really cool and appropriate for 3Speak. They are trying to integrate such a functionally inside their ecosystem anyway. Would be so happy to see such a collaboration happening.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Does this mean that Ceramic can be used as an alternative for DropBox and OneDrive? Or is Ceramic a supporting player for 3Speak?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hopefully September can remain kind to Hive and we maintain 70 cents.
By Monday across the world and Tuesday across the states
we will see where Hive is heading

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Prices are really unpredictable but I hope the pump in HIVE prices last as well.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Let's hope so! I think this 2nd semester is going to be very good for crypto as a whole and Hive should be no exception

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Are there predictions of hive reaching 10 dollars do you think possible in the short term?

I doubt that very much, but all things are possible. HIVE is a very different place than it was when I first joined. Innovations are happening daily.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I really feel like it will hold up around 70 cents and then hopefully start to grind upwards again like it was doing before this pump. With the other projects being delivered by years end (3Spk, HAF, and hopefully ProjectBlank) there really should be a lot of fuel to keep this thing moving. There are potentially a LOT of new users that will be getting exposure to HIVE, not to mention all the #Splinterlands players that have recently come on board.

With all the HIVE leaving the exchanges, it shouldn't take a large percentage of these people buying in to keep us moving in the right direction.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, let's see how it turns out, I don't know, I think Hive I've already had a bit of correction, but let's see if it hangs on at this level and then it explodes.

Yea, I agree. All the development taking place is eventually going to take us there but I think it's going to take a while

Slow but steady!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

With all the HIVE leaving the exchanges...

This could be a double-edged sword in a way from how I understand things. Sometimes speculators can be beneficial. I am sure there are those HIVE maximalists that would disagree.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Speculators can pump a price but they're really never beneficial to it's performance overall. All they do is add wild volatility. The only meaningful benefit is the possibility of them adding visibility to the underlying asset. If the speculation gets HIVE into the mainstream news, then, yes, I think that would be a positive. But just pumping the price over a dollar twice a year doesn't seem like much of a positive to me.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

On a completely different topic I did check out that PulseChain that you have been mentioning. I am not finished my research yet, but there is some buzz about it. Looks like it is closely connected to $HEX and its founder.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's completely connected. The reason for PulseChain is because of what the ETH fees are doing to HEX stakers and the ERC20 markets in general. As Richard constantly points out, crypto was not invented for the miners and exchanges to get rich. Which is exactly what is happening with these outrageous fees. It was created to get away from centralized exchanges and third-parties (i.e. middlemen). Ethereum is slowly selling out to the legacy system. Pulsechain fixes this.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah so but if he's so turned on what can we expect?

I'm looking forward to seeing these news.

It's possible, but I don't think it's going to happen in the short term

It's not even desired, in my opinion. I think we must grow on solid foundations and we're doing it but it will take some time

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

No in short term for sure. Maybe 5 years down the line. It could happen anytime if we keep the development going on. There are no reasons for Hive to fail in the short term or long term.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I hope so, everyone points to September as the month that many currencies will take a good leap

Hoping for the same @pouchon. 70 cents is a cool mark. Suddenly my author rewards have grown. I would like to keep it as it is for a month or two. 😁 And then $1. Amen!

Interesting take on the rights involved when purchasing an NFT:

When You Buy an NFT, You Don’t Completely Own It – Here’s Why

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

So it is all about owning the copyright? I need to look at my NFTs. I bought one on @nftshowroom and use it as my Twitter avatar and just received a free one yesterday on WAX. That puts my total NFTs (excluding my Splinterlands in-game assets) to a total of three (I have one of those golfers).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

They mention the UK in the article, so I don't know if it's particular to that region.

There's a firm that sells plots of land on Mars as an NFT. I almost picked one up until I found out they cost $400 in ETH each! :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

How can they sell plots of land on Mars? Who did they buy the land from, Marvin the Martian?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Someone already sold off Moon plots decades ago. Maybe it's the same person who sells certificates saying that so-and-so "owns" some star ot other celestial body.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, that star selling thing was around even before NFTs or blockchain... never really understood the point of that

Anyone can print a certificate and claim whatever star they feel like

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

never really understood the point of that

Why spend tens of thousands of dollars or reales on a diamond ring when for maybe 100 dollars or reales you can buy the love of your life an entire star?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

LOL it would be funny if someone who bought one of those NFTs goes up there in the future and tells Elon Musk to pack up his shit and get the fuck out of their property

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Now that would be really funny! Guess Mars would start out like homesteading? Just make a claim on the property.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The situation is the same if you buy a physical collectable. Owning a painting does not automatically give you the right to display it in public

Heh I had no idea about that... good thing I don't collect art

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I am glad I am not one of those collectors so it doesn't apply to me.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

As I expected, copyright laws definitely need to be updated. It's a huge mess since people can make anything into an NFT.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Question.
If we ignore the Justine Sun factor, what were the issues with the TRON that it did not took off?
Like it's price is even lower than DOGEcoin. I mean that's an insult to smart chain.
What could be the result of this coin and chain not performing?

Probably the fact it's a centralised chain, controlled by an unpredictable fraud who has ties to the Chinese government.

Avoid like the absolute plague.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

His reputation is trending down and has been that way for a long time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Tron is a piece of garbage that is all marketing and no fucking meat to gorge.

If Tron was a hive post, I would downvote it and I have never downvoted anyone I guess. 😂

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol I have only downvoted those phishers. Nobody else so far.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

If Tron was a hive post, I would downvote it and I have never downvoted anyone ...

(I would have used an LOL .gif, only I didn't have any handy.)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Haha. I get the vibe mate. :')

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

In my idea it's hard to predict this is all very volatile.

It's a centralized wasteland taken over by bots from what I hear.

No real value there if you ask me. In fact, I believe if sunny boi didn't have all that money it would have failed a long time ago

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I dont think you can ignore the Justin Sun factor. That is the main problem.

Outside of that, nothing can even begin to take off.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Too centralized and not enough development. We need more than just empty words.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The results from the Inaugural "SATURDAY SPLINTERLANDS/PLAY-TO-EARN DISCUSSION" are in! Not shabby for a half baked idea with less than 24 hour promotion.

But before we get to that, I would personally like to thank the participants in today's discussion: @tfranzizi; @jfang003; @dagger212; @leopuma; @magnacarta; and @finguru. You guys rocked it.

Now, on just the Official "SATURDAY SPLINTERLANDS/PLAY-TO-EARN DISCUSSION" thread we had 98 total comments from 7 different users (including myself). It is my belief that had I thought of this sooner and gotten the word out earlier, the comment total would have been much better. [Note though I am not counting several other posts with numerous comments concerning the Discussion that appeared outside the Official thread].

So yes, I'm going to give this a go for next week. I am thinking of moving the Discussion to Sunday, but do not want to interfere with people's family time. Anyone who would like to weigh in on this, please post up a comment. I plan on making a decision on this by Wednesday and commencing on Wednesday, will make daily posts reminding people of the upcoming Discussion.

And finally, congratulations to @leopuma, winner of the Discussions inaugural prize.

Next week's discussion topics: Splinterlands, dCity, and dCrops. A prize for the upcoming discussion will be announced Wednesday. So prepare some questions in advance and let's all look forward to a lively discussion on play-to-earn gaming next week.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Awesome Kevin. Congratulations @leopuma. Well deserved. I couldn't contribute much since I wasn't available. Gone too late for me. But I will surely join you guys next time. Looking forward to it. It was a fun experiment and really helped with the engagement on a generally slow weekend.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm glad to know it was a success, Kevin!

I think you could try it on a Sunday next week and see how that goes.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Sunday is just an idea I floated out there Tulio. No decision has been made on that.

I'm just not sure as to which day might attract the greater number of participants (and therefore the greater number of comments).

Need more time to think this one out.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You know what? That's an interesting question. Which day of the week does it start to get hopping around here. I think we can safely say it isn't the weekend. Just a guess only, I pick Tuesday as that matches the internet in general.

On Mondays, people are catching up on weekend work. Tuesday is the day they have a little free time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I agree with your theory on Tuesdays! But my intent is not to encourage more comments and engagement during the 'busy' times where it is already present.

I am looking to provide a vehicle to spawn engagement during the 'slow' times to boost LMT comment count. Both days of the weekend are very slow on LMT from a participation standpoint. My goal is to provide a reason for people to come to LMT when it is so slow and engage.

Anyone can post bullshit comments to increase both their individual comment count (as well as the count for LMT. We see that all the time (and I fear we will see more of it as there is now a significant financial incentive behind commenting). So I looked for an interesting and 'in the news' topic to spur meaningful discussion.

I think I have fulfilled the goal with respect to choosing topic, but, my query now is during which slow period will the gaming vehicle maximize meaningful comment production. Saturday or Sunday - Morning, afternoon or evening. And I'm not sure if I have the luxury of playing trial and error as yesterday was just basically a test run so I do not know if the traction is there for this to become a sustained run.

Sorry for the long response, I was thinking out loud (in written form).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I understood completely what you're trying to do, and was thinking out loud myself. But that's the issue isn't it? Saturday everyone is having the night out. Sunday, they're going to church and getting ready for work on Monday.

As far as time of day, I've found that if I comment after 4PM-ish, it usually gets lost as people tend to fade away until the new post goes up after 8PM. So my guess is it would be best between 8AM and 4PM. But which day is indeed the question.

If I were given 10 seconds to pick a slow weekend day, I'd choose Saturday 8AM-4PM.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Funny, that's exactly what I did...plus I split the difference and picked noon as a start time.

Right now I'm leaning toward leaving the day and time as is. I think the only way I'll change it, at least for next week, is if I get a big response from the community to the contrary.

You helped - a lot - and I thank you for it!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

B.S. comments happen at any time of the week; we can't help that.

Holding the SPT/P2E discussion on the weekend to drive engagement then is genius. Excellent idea.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think I had made a post about this way long ago .

I think I discovered that day doesn't matter ( weekday ) but timings is 19-21 UTC is most active .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

My problem with determining a time and weekend day is divergent inputs. On the one hand I'm seeking to address slow comment creation times (and improve production), but that is juxtaposed to the fact I need enough people to create the comments.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, I got it

Could be worth a try just to see how it goes. But it was a good first day so maybe Saturday ends up being the sweet spot

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't think so , Saturday is usually drink and relax day lol .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Haha yea thats true! But we had a busy day so I guess people were drinking while commenting :P

I know I was LOL

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Maybe Kevin should rotate and pick a different HIVE game each week.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

My initial thought was to do just that. But in thinking it through, let's face it, some games simply have more traction and appeal than others.

That is why I'm going to leave it be an open topic discussion - anything pay-to-earn, but this coming week I'm going to try and actively get a discussion going on dCrops.

I'm still feeling my way through this so I'll probably be trying new things for a few weeks to see how it evolves.

Thanks though for the suggestion. Any and all input is appreciated.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I like the idea of leaving it open. I think people will naturally gravitate to the games that draw more attention but they are also free to talk about others too.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I still didn't understand that games can explain it to me better?

Well each game is different...which one are you confused about?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thank you for the interesting topic. I am glad it had quite a few interesting topics and there were people who learned a few things as well.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Very happy to hear this .

I have been missing some good action by not being active .

Comments also help the articles to rank.

This is an underrated tip for SEO since we're usually focused on actual posts. That won't stop, but let's also use comments to backlink to older content.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I do that whenever I get the chance. Having more conversations going under the main post will increase the visit duration on the website. This can improve ranking!!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, Google ranks those articles higher that have better engagement. Even if sometimes the original article is shitty.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea but it might include a bit too much information. So it will take a while to see what you want to write about.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Right. I would see the titles of the articles written already and take ideas from there so that I can somehow backlink those later.

@ricestrela, you've been given LUV from @magnacarta.

Check the LUV in your H-E wallet. LUV changes soon. (1/1)

$PIZZA@ricestrela! I sent you a slice of on behalf of @magnacarta.

Did you know Pizzabot in Discord has a bunch of useful commands? (2/10)

How much Pizza you need to have before you can send it to others like that? I think I might get me some

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

To send PIZZA using the "!" you need to own 20.0 PIZZA. Each use of "!" send out 0.1 PIZZA, so it can take a while to accumulate it that way. If you just buy 20.0 PIZZA from the exchange, then you're all set.

Also, you're limited to sending PIZZA 10 times a day. The PIZZA web site has more details.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I think I probably have a few already so I'll check how many I need to have 20

According to information from the Reuters agency Recovery of offshore oil production in the US begins with ports and refineries, we will see if this will be the case, but to be advanced by the agency it should be.

The oil market is in all kinds of starts of upheaval right now. So we will have to see how it settles down and if the prices drop.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It could but I don't think it will go that well with the current US administration. I have a feeling the production will be cut further in the next few years.

It's about 11:15pm in New York. At this time HIVE is at 0.761 and LEO is at 0.321. For comparison, BAT is at 0.92 and DOGE is at 0.29. All quotes are in USD.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I must be one of the early birds. At 6:30AM on the east coast, Leo is down a bit, but HIVE is still holding the same level. Let's hope it keeps going up over the next week.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We wait impatiently to see but I believe

6:30 AM on a Sunday
You're a trooper! hehe

Watching the pricing from hour to hour can drive one to the nut house. LOL

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

i would rather let the market do what it does while I force on other things. This is why I cannot be a daytrader.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Same here. I don't think I could do that.

I prefer the HODL mindset

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well it's similar for me. I'd rather just set alerts and let it tell me when the price is a certain value to check the chart.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Watching prices every hour will drive people insane...I don't really feel like doing it either.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well let's hope so. I still think HIVE deserves to be priced higher due to the developments happening here.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

And it is now 10:!2 AM in the east, and all that changed somewhere. LOL

Prices will do what they do.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's about 8 PM in New Delhi. At this time HIVE is at 0.762 and LEO is at 0.299. For comparison, BAT is at 0.967 and DOGE is at 0.304. All quotes are in USD.

What you think about shiba some idea?

Not touching it, it's not for me

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'd avoid SHIBA. All meme coins tend to be avoided by me.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well I accept the opinion but who knows? Maybe in a while it disappears or maybe it makes a lot of people millionaires.

At this point in time, Dogecoin is the "self-made money" which moved to the old-money neighborhood. It's the Al Czervik of old-time cryptos joining the country club run by Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum.


Scene from CADDYSHACK(1980)
Guess which one represents Dogecoin
(Image Source: imdb.com)

However, the 140-plus Dogecoin imitators are essentially speculation vehicles and risky in relation to other major market cap leaders. Use lottery money on those (including Shiba Inu).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

So you don't believe in shiba?

It's not that I don't believe in Shiba Inu period. It's that I don't see it as a long-term asset to hold. With 140+ imitators of Dogecoin (Shiba Inu being one of them), nearly all exist just to capitalize of the popularity of Dogecoin. Among that 140+ group, though, Shiba Inu looks like a strong contender. There's even a Guide for it on the @crypto-guides page.

Would I put more than USD 1,000 into SHIB? I wouldn't do that. Would I buy USD 100 of SHIB? I can do that without a problem.

Dogecoin has crossed over from joke coin to "new money" which began as a joke coin. This is why I bought a couple hundred dollars' worth of DOGE some weeks ago. (The exchange I use also has few listings but DOGE is one of them.)

I'm OK with people buying SHIB if they do their own research. I'm OK with people buying SHIB if they do it as a short-term play to take profits quickly. I'm even OK with people buying SHIB to HODL. It's just not a crypto asset where I want my money (the little I have).

I'm not a fan, but I'm not a hater. I just have different preferences. In this world, it takes all kinds. If SHIB helps you buy that yacht from The Wolf of Wall Street, God bless you, you earned it!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thats somewhat what I believe as well.. I would throw more than 20 bucks maybe... but most of the times I just stay away completely

There are games like Splinterlands and Rising Star which use their own Layer 2 tokens. There are games like Hive Dice and Lucksacks Poker which accept and pay out in HIVE.

Does anyone know of any games (even if it's under construction or in development) which use existing Layer 2 tokens? For example, a game with prizes or purchases done with LEO, POB, NEOXAG, etc. !PIZZA and BEER would be the best bets to get such a game made.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well, you can use Pizza on Rising Star to buy packs of cards even though the game is not built around it.

In fact, you can use many tokens on Rising Star such as Vibes, DEC, LEN and they keep adding more from time to time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yup they have also removed tokens before as well. It was probably like half a year ago or so when they removed FARM from the list due the pegs not really holding quite well.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Really? I didn't know that. That's a really good idea. I've been looking for use-cases for some of those tokens and this sounds like a pretty good one.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea! They may change it in the future, but right now these are the ones you can use to buy card packs:

image.png

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Oh, and also, sometimes the game developer runs tests with a few other tokens that are not officially listed on the game site, but if you send him a DM on Discord he will hook you up.

I think he was doing some testing with MATIC the other day, but don't quote me on that

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well...I think MATIC might be on the list in the future but you also missed out buying packs on WAX or Paypal.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is smart on their part in my opinion. Glad to read that.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea they plan on integrating everything they can so anyone can spend if they wish.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

$PIZZA@leomarkettalk! I sent you a slice of on behalf of @magnacarta.

Did you know you can now buy Rising Star packs with $PIZZA? (1/10)

Rising Star is probably the best game that allow people to buy using many different tokens. It supports VIBES, LEN, HIVE, Starbits and there are probably a few other.

I also know that Dcity also allows people to buy and sell NFTs for various Hive Engine tokens through the use of https://nftm.art/buy.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I wish all other games on HIVE would provide support for other Hive-Engine tokens as well.

That could really help with the adoption.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well it tends to be more of an agreement between people so I think its between the token owners to figure out some type of deal.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah. That way we will be creating a HIVE Metaverse.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good question. It think developers who look to integrate other projects in their games are going to do well and extend their reach.

Plus it adds to the value of the entire ecosystem.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

100%. Should go for the mass adoption, at least within Hive community. It makes sense since almost everyone is using Hive-engine and have access to multiple layer 2 tokens. It would be a great use case for those tokens as well. More distributed circulation.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

PIZZA is the leader in this. I used to think it was just for engagement, but behind the scenes PIZZA is a major player in driving traffic and bringing in revenue. It's connection to blockchain gaming is a natural fit.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's true. They have a lot going on

I think there are even some farms where you can stake pizza... can't remember the name of the platform, but I'm pretty sure Ive seen something like that

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You can also use some of these LAYER-2 Tokens like PIZZA and BEER in DCity. Events can be created in the game by spending these tokens.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I think there is also the GAMER token from one of those gambling HIVE games.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Got it! Full list of tokens accepted by Dcity.

Today I got to know that you can buy Splinterlands credits with hundreds of crypto options like HIVE, LEO, BTC, ETH, WAX etc. Also, you can buy DEC directly with HIVE, BTC, ETH etc. but not LEO.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

But you can swap LEO to swap.hive and buy DEC with that. And since transactions are free....one extra step ain't gonna kill ya.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, that option is always there. It comes in handy when you don't have Hive but other cryptos.

Also, I can directly use my LEO to buy credits which is quite convenient.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ah I didn't know DEC buying wasn't allowed for LEO.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah. It should have been there. 😁

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

at the moment the hive is at 0.765 hope it holds it was very interesting to be able to stabilize at the 0.7 mark

Anything over 0.75$ is good according to me .

I hope it will hit and stabilize over 1$ by the end of the year .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes I hope hive more that 0.70 but I dream 1 hive=1 Dollar if happen its very good

I have a feeling we head into the 60s. That is something that I think worth watching.

If we hold the 60 cent mark, it was another leg up.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

True. I was hoping it would hold around 0.8, but even 0.6 is already a step forward.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

$1 by 2022? I think yes!

Even 0.765 is low for a coin like HIVE. It deserves at least $1.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Already, it was known that there had to be a correction in the price but I expect it to remain at 0.7 or above. It was a good brand to keep.

Yeah. For now it is above 0.7. I think it will come down a bit more. Around 0.6

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I hope only 0.7

I hope for a $1 but sadly it doesn't work that way. ☹

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

but we have to believe

Well the price is higher than where we were a few weeks ago so I think it's great. Then again we need to find out how much due to actual price increase or korean pumps.

Hey Guys, do you check these Hive Marketing Updates by @lordbutterfly. A ton of shit is happening on his side. Check out the previous updates to see the progress being made on the marketing end.

Hive got a few listings this summer:

https://hive.blog/hive/@hiveio/looking-back-at-our-hive-summer-listings

Not to worry, we are not only focused on HIVE pairs and are also working on increasing our HBD listings.

I was wondering about the same because I could not find HBD on many major exchanges. Also, I did not know about these new listings except StealthEX.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I generally don't really follow it as much. I do remember seeing him try to list HIVE but I don't really focus on it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I would like to know your opinion about the shiba cryptocurrency. Will he be able to match the doge. Or at least 0.01 will arrive in a few years?
untitled.gif

When we were creating our Shiba Inu guide, we weren't very bullish.

For me, nothing has changed.

Memecoins like this are scammy.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I know about the risk, I just think that there are coins where we believe a lot in the project and then they don't move forward and then some coins that some call shit coins that nobody believes in and then make a profit.

They seem pump and dump to me but I dont follow them closely.

Others here that I respect do not have a high opinion of them.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't really follow shiba because I don't have much interest in it. Sure, it could moon and I would have missed this opportunity but I think there are other projects with better odds so I'll just stick to them

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think shiba can get there. Who would have said 2 or 3 years ago that the doge arrived there and who believed this millionaire

It took DOGE 7 years to crack USD 0.01, then it achieved its ATH a few months ago near USD 0.75. So it took close to 8 years to reach its current ATH.

Shiba Inu may not achieve the popularity or respect of Dogecoin, but SHIB will reach USD 0.01 much faster than DOGE did.

When it comes to that neighborhood inhabited by Dogecoin and its 140+ imitators, I treat DOGE the same as ETH and BTC. I leave the 140+ imitators to experts in short-term market plays.

Among the 140+ Dogecoin imitators, Shiba Inu looks like a serious challenger. Compared to Bitcoin and the usual suspects, though, I wouldn't know how to compare it to them.

However, it's better to spend money on Shiba Inu than on SafeMoon.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Never take memecoins so seriously.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ok I understand you

I don't think Shiba will get there. Besides being donated to India, I don't think I have heard much more about their activity.

I remember posting about how celebrities, businessmen on hollywood shows are bad for crypto.

Take example of Kevin o'leary who think DeFi needs to be regulated, handled by VC teams.

Check this video on DeFi from Shark tank celebrities.

@taskmaster4450le

How does DeFi is DeFi if it has VC funding, teams in a company?
Isn't that going to be CeFi?

Yes, the big corporations are subverting many concepts such as DeFi and the Metaverse so they can retain control.

We need true decentralization and that's not going to happen if we keep relying on VCs. We must become our own VCs

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

@tranzini really hit it on the head. They are trying to hijack the entire concept. That is why we need to keep pushing things on Hive further out.

Spreading out the reward pool while having stronger hands if vital.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I don't really like the way they move it but the wealthy themselves are always trying to protect their own assets so we know that they will attempt whatever they can.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea Kevin O'Leary is one of the better financial guys since he is willing to change his mind given facts. He went into Tesla when he was given a second opinion and later revised BTC later.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

If people want to make their own DeFi platforms and centralize them as they suggest, let them. But then they should stop calling their platforms "DeFi" and called them what they really are. Also, they can all move to one side of the neighborhood and leave True DeFi alone for those people who truly want decentralized finance.

They saw they want to make DeFi better by regulating it in the ways everything else is regulated. What they really mean is they want to drive DeFi out of business so that they control what is left.

I don't care if they want to control their own platforms and call them "DeFi" platforms, but I want them to leave the Real DeFi platforms alone.

Lol, I would go underground too. USA is probably a bad place to be for her. Not very far from Venezuela. She should have gone to Malta or something.

The latest LBI weekly report is out. It looks like they are going to get involved with Splinterlands and SPS through the DEC/BUSD pool.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Seems like a good idea to me. Of course, I was the one who suggested it so I might be biased. lol

But seriously, it's a FREE AIRDROP for another 11 months. If #Splinterlands continues to blow up, it just seems like a no-brainer to be taking advantage of it. He's always looking for more outside income streams and this really has the opportunity to be just that; at least for the next year or so. After that, there should be a nice stack that can either be sold into LEO to support LeoFinance, or else used for other opportunities that present themselves.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, I agree!
I think all major projects on Hive Engine will end up adding Splinterlands stuff to their portfolio

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea it definitely is an amazing airdrop. I am looking forward to seeing how everything plays out.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

A very smart move on their part to be sure. @splinterlands for me is a long-term investment due to the ability to #playtoearn. Get out there and jump on those Splinterlands contests that give away cards!

Twitch broadcasts as does @MarcusWahl! Nothing tried nothing gained folks!@clove71 gives away cards and DEC on her

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I haven't watched them recently but maybe I should start doing so again.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The holders are being benefited from this price change and will obviously be benefited those who holds are great to get the higher price gain.

That is my goal as well. I got up in one of those spots once! It gives one a sense of accomplishment not to mention bragging rights. 😁😁

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm already resigned to the fact that I won't get close. My comments are just too long. lol Other than my echo chamber posts from the other day, I usually try to add new thoughts to the mix rather than just moving it along. That ends up taking a lot more time. And then I don't comment on things when I don't have anything to add so that leaves a lot of empty comments out of the mix for counting.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hey, you did pretty well yesterday, according to amr's report!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, I basically doubled and tripled word count and didn't even have the most comments. It's just not worth it to add inane remarks to me. Seems like a waste of time. It is what it is. That is the contest. Just not for me....

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

There has already been too much ENGAGE today.

Hive is presently pushing 90 cents. We will see which direction it chooses to go.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I guess I wrote that too soon. The price dropped to 80 cents.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

lol yeah I liked the price action yesterday of it moving kind of slowly up but there was always a negative pressure on it that kept trickling the price down which seemed a little odd on how it was doing that?

Anyways it just seems like it's in a nose dive now which is pretty much how Hive always plays out. Massive hard really and then an almost equal sell. Retrace back to $0.40- $0.50 levels? it's possible.

Wonder why we can't ever hold though too many very large accounts selling?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You would have to get with @penguinpablo and all the other collectors of stats on that topic.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think it's because people are probably taking profits. While I wasn't here when things started but I think some people didn't appreciate the fact that HIVE dropped down to 11 cents at one point.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, I also think that is the case...

There are some people powering down at the moment so they might have taken the opportunity to take profits

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's definitely going to be very volatile. I prefer to let prices go rather than trying to predict it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Now it is at 78 cents or there abouts. I am having a case of deja vu!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

On a side note, HBD seems more or less at $1.2 without much of an issue.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

i dont think it will be coming down anytime soon but I could be wrong. hive on the other hand might stabilize around 60cents

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Nice little bump to the LEO price as well. Hope things keep going up as I had to refresh when this run started to be sure I was seeing right.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Did not make too much of a difference for me. I do not keep large amounts of liquid HIVE. I power up as I go.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That can be good for your account, but it's also nice to have something salted away in case opportunities like Splinterlands or SEED present themselves.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I liked the SEED investment. It seems like we will be indirectly exposed to all of the different approaches.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, I also noticed that!

People didn't talk much about it but it did go up a little, which is always nice

CUB, on the other hand, fell a little

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hive's move this week has been a bit weird. Meteoric rise and rapid descent. What do you think will happen will it return to the original point or is it a turning point to go beyond $ 1 this week?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

This week I doubt it will go over $1 again but probably by the end of the year it should be close to $2

2$ is too high if you ask me . 1$ seems realistic .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think it will stabilize over 0.7$ .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

0.7 its a good price

I'm hoping it will find new support on a higher level than before. I was actually hoping that would be at 0.8 but I guess that ship has sailed

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is called a pump and dump. It was manipulation I believe.

We will see how it all settles out but I believe we see the 60s again.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

If this is the case, then who are the Pump-n-Dumpers? It's not these people, that I can tell you:


Cover image for "People in Crypto: Pump-and-Dumpers"

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

i am guessing we will see a $2 at some point in the year but we might steady at around 0.60 cents this week. Just my thoughts

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well we had a few pumps in the past. Most of the time, it was short lived but it may build a stronger base of support. So overall I think more people will be wanting some HIVE. As for past $1 this week, I don't think so.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Bitcoin shoots up for a bit, then loses 50% to 90% of those gains to slum it for a while before the cycle repeats. Each time Bitcoin achieved higher highs and even ATH.

I'm not saying Hive is anything like Bitcoin, but I'm expecting this pattern with Hive as well.

If my guess is right-- and it is just a guess-- then we will be laughing like hyenas for a while.

Oh nice

How long it took you to do it manually?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Not a lot of time actually .

All the calculations were automatic , only the getting the amount to send and sending it was manual which took 5 minutes but the problem was that I had to wake up at 2:30 AM to send it . Since 9 PM UTC here is 2:30 AM .

I decided to pull the trigger on dCrops. I only bought a couple of packs to start with and only got a single land plot out of them so there is not a lot for me to do right now but wait for my harvest.

I'm positively impressed with the UI though. It looks very nice!

I'll share more of my experience when I actually do something in the game lol

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

i dont know how you guys do it but I find it hard to play games these days. I dunno, maybe my life is getting bogged down by too many unnecessary activities.

I stumbled upon dCrops some months ago, even got a free pack, but I have not done much with it

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I know what you mean brother. That's why I play mostly games that require little to no attention such as LiteBringer, Rising Star and now dCrops.

I believe Splinterlands is the only one that I play that requires more time on a daily basis.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I feel you.

Life gets busy real fast haha.

But games like dCrops and dCity are essentially just DeFi platforms with a fun UI.

They don't take a lot of active 'playing' as such.

These are the types of games I'm loving.

Is it like Farmville? Sounds like it. Never checked the game, might do it. We do farming so might as well play a game and do it virtually 👻

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I never played Farmville, so I can't tell!
But the game looks to be pretty simple. You just need to have plots available and seeds to plant, then you wait until it's harvest time.

There is probably more to it, but I still haven't explored it much

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes it's exactly Farmville then. I used to play it like crazy. One of those trends that took over Facebook when it first came out. Social media gaming go hand in hand.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ahh okay, I see

Well, this is probably even better then, because it's not on stupid Facebook, so you actually own your stuff!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes bro. 100 times better. Here you play to earn. On Facebook, you play and they earn. 🙄

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ah Farmville. I quit after a while since you eventually get bored and no real benefits for playing.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's true! I quit gaming because it seemed a time waste to me and I am bad at streaming games. No way I could make my time worthwhile when I was playing until #P2E happened. ✌

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I considered pulling the trigger and buying some stuff. But I don't think I will. I do have a plot and some seeds but I don't think I will generate enough to see the returns without investing more HIVE into the game.

Their UI is epic.

Whoever is doing their artwork is extremely talented.

Yea, I even applied to be on the team. Didn't get selected this time so maybe next time.

But I know the guys that were picked and they are all great so I think it was a smart choice and I'm sure they will accomplish great things for LeoFinance

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good luck on being accepted.

Better luck next time bro. Yeah, I know one of them. Pretty sure they are the experts. Looking forward to the initiatives they come up with.

It's good for those using their phones. Unfortunately it doesn't include me and I don't think I have extra time to curate the entire Leo feed.

There is also a coin out of the football world at the beginning called kicksoccer coin is now Sports know?
It's still starting have you heard?
It has support from some South American clubs and well-known players as well as former players.

I don't really know it, but I know that a lot of South American teams are creating their own tokens so that could be a trend soon

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes I think football Tokens its a future in some coins

Well it's nice to know they support crypto but I don't think I have ever heard of them before.

Hello Splinterlands players, please help if you know how Peakmonsters work. I clicked on the Buy Button and it disappears.

When I hover my mouse on the question mark, it says this:

I am fulfilling all the requirements mentioned. Am I doing something wrong?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Click the blue cart (green box) then in the cart up top, open it up then pay in credits or DEC (blue box).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Got it thanks. But as you mentioned, going to use Monstermarket. :') It has cheaper prices and cashback.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Also I prefer monstermarket for buying cards because it pays you back some DEC for your purchase. Unless you are placing bids, I prefer to just buy it off monstermarket.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Oh thanks. I didn't know about it. Going to check it out.

Hive holding in the mid 70s. This could be bullish.

It might be getting a bit of help from Bitcoin which is starting to run a bit. Over $51K.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well it could. Is HIVE on the exchanges linked with BTC or is by USD?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We are officially above 333 with a little over an hour left. How far do you think we will go today?
