RE: Up 20% and looking ahead

in LeoFinance4 years ago

Wow, 120k puts you in the top 150 stakeholders, that's no small amount! I'm targeting baby Orca (full Orca/ "Mother Forca") by the end of the year but this is inspiring me to potentially open up the purse strings a little bit.

I'm also crap at curation so I've delegated/leased out the majority of my HP to guilds who know what to do with it (curie, OCD, curangel) and leave enough for me to use the platform as a casual/social/part time user (how I envisaged using Hive/Steem in the first place as an eccentric creative bloke).

I joined in March 2018 so was seeing the beginning of the downward momentum in price but decided to buy up when the bottom had been reached around Aug 2019-Jan 2020, then all hell broke loose, went up to $1, I was like say whaaaaaaaat, then things seemed to have gone catastrophically bad on Steem so looking for a chance to get out and in 3 weeks, will have finished the conversion to Hive.

Like you, I have no liquid but nae bother, I haven't spent more than I can afford to lose and having fun with it, which is the most important thing 😃

Sort:  

The end of the year doesn't feel that far away at the speed that this year has moved :) Top 150 sounds alright, I think this is the highest I have been.

Steem isn't looking pretty, except for the 20-30 accounts raping it - oh, they are the witnesses....

I haven't spent more than I can afford to lose and having fun with it,

The no more than can afford to lose is important - some can't afford to lose anything, some won't ever risk a loss, even if they could.

That's true, it's somehow flown by despite spending half of it mostly confined to 4 walls in the patented Havey's Man Cave! I think you'll continue to rise a bit more as powerdowns on Steem and some powering down on Hive finished up. Really can't believe the behaviour over there...

I'd also like to say that having fun is probably just as important, if not more important than to focus on the money side. Was speaking to Galen about this actually that I never (intentionally) mention the money aspect of Hive and try to keep it as the fun social media it is with some added perks you wouldn't get by having a facebook page (from a music producer's point of view). It's slowly but surely working and just nursing a few new musicians over here 🙂
