You know those days where you're pouring your morning coffee and you're completely distracted but at the same time, really lucky? Yep, it is one those days... 😁 Have a great week everyone!

Daily wildlife photography: the crab-eating macaque, Macaca fascicularis. Also called long-tailed macaque, this is one of the most widespread monkey species in southeast Asia. They coexhist with human in several locations... and they can be quite fast with their hands! Just ask some of the tourists that get too close, or get distracted when they're near! ;) #Photography
@Pardinus
Life is better at the beach! Can't wait for Summer to arrive and escape to hidden gems like this. Photos taken in a secluded beach in the SW Portugal; apart from really great surfing conditions... you can finish your surfing session with this show! #Photography
@Pardinus
It's out!! It´s out!! https://leofinance.io/@leofinance/new-leofi-products-snapshot-announcement-cub-tokens-and-bep20-leo The news we've been waiting for are here. Snapshot details, more announcement of announcements, but overall, a certainty that LEO's ecossystem future is looking bright! My only regret is not being able to gather a decent amount of LEO until tomorrow, the day the snapshot will happen. How bullish on LEO are you after reading that post?? #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the Sri Lankan elephant, Elephas maximus maximus. It's a subspecies of the asian elephant, and although asian elephants are smallers than their african cousins... it's still amazing to be able to stand near an animal this big in the wild! These photos were taken during a safari in Udawalawe National park, Sri Lanka. #Photography
@Pardinus
S, have you staked all the LEO you could get your hands on? Or prefered to keep some liquid to join in on BSC? I've checked Hive-Engine yesterday, took a good look at my buying and selling orders, and it suddenly hit me: I never imagined I would be on the crypto space selling... weed! Anyone else feeling like a criminal? :))))) Good morning everyone! #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the eurasian magpie, Pica pica. This magpie is very easy to identify, with its long tai, white chest, and black head. It's a common finding in urban parks, and it's considered a highly intelligent species... you can even find them keeping an eye on cattle! ;) Photos taken in Algarve, Portugal. #Photography
@Pardinus
Sooo wanting to go down these paths again and enjoy my country's nature! Anyone fed up with lockdowns? ;) Good morning everyone! #Photography
@Pardinus
Wow. I noticed the mail today, and realised that I just passed 0.05 BCH! Thank you all for your support, so glad I found this platform; I wouldn't guess I would actually enjoy microblogging!
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the greater flamingo, Phoenicopterus roseus. These elegant birds can be seen easily in Portugal, mainly in wetlands in the centre/south. Did you knew their pink colour comes from their food? That's why the intensity of pink in the plummage can vary. Photos taken in Algarve, Portugal. #Photography
@Pardinus
Could we have a head and shoulders forming on AVA? I love the project, and they recently lowered the minimum coin amount to get on their program. I am already halfway to my goal... and a dip would come soooo in handy! ;) Good morning everyone! #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Decided to take a look today at common saving solutions from my traditional bank. And the only think that comes to my mind is a big f**k off! Interests for a savings deposit of 181 or 365 days... 0.015%, with interests paid at 181 or365, respectively. Comparing with a platform like Celsius, for instance: interests for a stable coin, 10,5%, with interest paid weekly! So, putting 1000 euros in each one of these solutions, and checking the result after one year, you'll have:…
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the mute swan, Cygnus olor. Swans are monogamic species, and mate for life. This couple was photographed swimming at the golden hour in a lake near Tihany, Hungary. #Photography
@Pardinus
Today the will of travelling hit a little stronger; seeing the photos taken during pasts travels doesn't help, but sure does bring good memories! Remembering how I started 2018: with a balloon ride in Capadocia, Turkey. #Travel
@Pardinus
More often than not, opening a Splinterlands pack gives you those 4 commons and one rare. Today, the pack opening was different: it's been ages since I was this lucky! It's not the golden Yodin I'm still waiting... but can't complain: 3 epics in the same pack! :) Good morning noisers! #Hive
@Pardinus
This one has been standing in my living room way too long. But with so little time to be on top of all things crypto related, it will probably take a while to see it finished. Anyone else enjoys puzzles? 🙂
@Pardinus
I love how technology can help you get fit nowadays! I got a Tomtom watch to keep track of my outdoor sports, and the geek in me loves all the stats that it gathers. It's very useful to monitor our progress! And judging by my stats... definitely need to improve my pace. 😁
@Pardinus
Guess today was my lucky Splinterlands day! In the morning, opening a pack with three epics inside. And now... realising I've finished 4th in a tournament, and 1000 DEC flew to my account. I rarely enter tournaments nowadays, but I'm glad I did it today! BTW, have you heard last AMA? If not, @nateaguila made a pretty awesome post about it (I don't know if he is here, but I'm sure he doesn't mind I share the info!):…
@Pardinus
Crazy work days! Seems nowadays it's almost impossible to leave work on time. But feels great being able to help these little critters. 🙂
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the northern Jacana, Jacana spinosa. These cute birds have long legs and feet, adapted to walking among the vegetation in shallow waters, their normal habitat. They can be found in central America. Photo taken during a canoe ride in Parque Nacional Tortuguero, in Costa Rica. #Photography
@Pardinus
I could post this on Leofinance chamber... but prefer to write it out in the open. Why? Because 99,9% of the users in that chamber already know what's going on. This is for eveyone else! Leofinance is a project that started 2 years ago in Hive blockchain, and just launched a major project involving Binance Smart Chain. Defi is evolving like crazy, and you either try and keep up, or risk jumping in way later than you should. This is the website you should be studying right…
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the javan munia, Lonchura leucogastroides. These small birds are normally found in big groups, and they are seed eaters. Several species from the same genus exist. Photographies taken in Ubud, Bali, among the rice fields. #Photography
@Pardinus
So... am I the only one that keeps regularly refreshing Hive-Engine, waiting to see a certain token magically appear? :) Good morning everyone! #Leofinance
@Pardinus
There are wild animals with amazing colour patterns... and domestic animals as well! Bengal cats originated from crossing domestic cats with asian leopard cats. The result? A docile animal, but with a colour pattern resembling their feral cousins! #Photography
@Pardinus
Annnnnd it's done: airdrop arrived, only received 1,2 Cub... but hope to multiply it soon. I lost a little time trying not to mess up and learning how to stake tokens, but I can finally say : first experience in Cubfinance, check!! Already staked mine in the Cub den, and now it's time to watch them grow. Have you staked your airdrop? #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the Iberian grey Shrike, Lanius meridionalis. This bird is a subspecies of the grey shrike, only found in the Iberian Peninsule. Cute as he is... but did you knew one of his characteristics is the ability to impale its prey, in barb wire or spines?? Photographies taken in Alentejo, Portugal. #Photography
@Pardinus
I can think of two funcionalities that would improve the experience in the platform: - The ability of uploading more than 1 photo at the same time (edit: I meant the actual upload process; you can have more than one photo in the post, but you have to repeat the upload process for each one) - A bookmark section What do you say, noise.cash? And good morning everyone!
@Pardinus
What's better than receiving a booster pack in your daily quest reward? It's receiving two of them! This was a first time for me. Investment wise, Splinterlands was probably the best one I've made. And the good thing is, investing your time alone will probably bring you a decent amount of finantial return, and that's not including all the fun playing the game! #Hive
@Pardinus
I've been using Celsius as my "savings" bank, and according to their last email, I'm not alone. The amount of assets in the platform is skyrocketing, and they're close to reaching half a million users. With a very solid team, great communication with their users, and new functionalities coming, I feel it's one of the most trustworthy platforms in their segment. In app swap is coming, and that will be a game changer for me. Are you using Celsius too? #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the changeable hawk-eagle, Nisaetus cirrhatus. This beautiful animal has two different colorations, this is the darker one. It's rare to be able to be this close to a bird of prey, but she didn't seem to mind the Jeep. Photos taken during a small safari in Udawalawe National park, Sri Lanka. #Photography
@Pardinus
Crazy day today! Got home and realised the 10th untamed airdrop from Splinterlands is live! Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky enough to receive one. With those stats, I'm imagining the new dragon summoner is going to be tough to beat in the battlefield! Where you lucky on the airdrop? #Hive
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the pied avocet, Recurvirostra avosetta. The black and white from its plummage and the upward facing beak make him almost impossible to be mistaken with any other species. It's a common sighting in portuguese wetlands. #Photography
@Pardinus
I would perfectly see myself lounging in one of these chairs... but off to reality and to a morning of work! Enjoy your weekend everyone! Photo taken in Gili Air, Indonesia #Travel
@Pardinus
Finally, work is done. Time to enjoy the weekend! And now to test your eyes... anyone willing to guess which species is this? 😉
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the asian water monitor, Varanus salvator. This is one of the most common monitor lizards in Asia, and adults can reach almost 2meters in lenght! It's amazing how close to populations we can find them, especially when I think about the little lizards I find in the urban areas in my country; I took these photos in a city park in Kandy, Sri Lanka. #Photography
@Pardinus
Manual curation is definitely my preferred method and the one I use for most of my votes, but having an auto voter to reward consistent good authors you know is a good way of not letting you VP going to waste. And let's face it, most of us will hardly have the time to curate manually 100%. There are two services that are very helpfull in that subject: - Hive.vote - rewarding.app My problem nowadays... I can't get any of these to work with keychain, and Hivesigner doesn't…
@Pardinus
With the restrictions to normal life lowering in Portugal, urban parks are finally open again. Time for some walking and breathing fresh air!
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: tha asian water buffalo, Bubalus bubalis. Although he is originally from Asia (as the name implies), nowadays the species is almost widespread, due to domestication, and several wild populations exist outside of Asia. These photos were taken in Udawalawe National Park, Sri Lanka. #Photography
@Pardinus
Another Splinterlands season ended... and a whole bunch of crap rewards again! :)) With the added bonus this time that an error occurred so I couldn't even see the chests opening! Oh well, the fun is still there, and off for another season! To the ones starting to play: if you encounter an error while opening your season or daily rewards, you can still see what you won in Peakmonsters website: it has an explorer option, and all you actions will be there, including those…
@Pardinus
Remembering places to visit again. The colours of the water could suggest a location somewhere in the caribbean.... but no, it's just a little bit off continental Portugal! Porto Santo, a small island near Madeira, Portugal. Warm water, a huuuuuge beach, and a great place for a getaway! #Travel
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the white stork, Ciconia ciconia. The white stork is widespread nowadays, thanks to one of the most successfull conservation programs adopted in the country. You can't confuse it with any other species. And no... they don't bring babies! :) Photos taken in Alentejo, Portugal. #Photography
@Pardinus
Get a dwarf. The exploding kind. Place him in an equalizer ruleset. Get him a couple buffs more from your team. What do you get? A killing machine!!! One of the best tanks in Splinterlands, in these conditions: huge attack, high speed, blast, retaliate, trample... there's nothing not to like! ;) #Hive
@Pardinus
Coinmarketcap has a small section where you can earn free crypto, by watching videos and answering to quizzes. It might not be much, but it's free crypto! You need an account in Coinmarketcap and having done KYC at Binance, since your Binance ID is also needed. I only found out about it today, and I see a lot of projects still have the videos available, but no more chance to earn free crypto. Only one still active, about the Nervos Network. Probably worth a look! #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the european goldfinch, Carduelis carduelis. It's a very common finch, being easily found in urban areas as well. They're often in groups, so if you see one, chances are you'll see a few more. With a face with red, white and black, and with the yellow patch on the wings, it's easy to recognize! Photos taken in Mourão, Portugal. Good morning everyone! #Photography
@Pardinus
Read in a wall somewhere in Sintra, Portugal. And it is a pertinent question. Translates to "Today, are you living... or surviving? "
@Pardinus
So many opportunities to earn free crypto! Coinbase earn lets you win some tokens in exchange for gaining a little bit of knowledge about the projects: it's a win-win situation! Been a while since I went there, but visited today and joined Nucypher, Numeraid and Graphene to my portfolio. Are you taking advantage of these litte giveaways? #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the mantled howler monkey, Alouatta palliata. Howler monkeys are one of the 4 primate species you can find in Costa Rica, where these photos were taken. The howling of the males can be heard miles away! And it's kind of hard to sleep when they're howling next to you hotel room... speaking from personal experience! :) Still, the joy of being able to see wildlife in their natural habitat compensates the lack of sleep. #Photography
@Pardinus
How dumb are you, if you have a golden opportunity, and even worse than not enjoying it, you simply decide to ruin it? Platforms like this are still not even close from mainstream; and you are lucky to be here right now, with free money being handed to you, and instead of trying to improve the experience and add some value, you just spam and ask for subs. Why do people still waste time on this crap? My answer to the last one was a constructive one, but next trash will go…
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the common stonechat, Saxicola torquata. This one is a female; there's a clear difference between plumamge of both sexes, willl try to get the photos of a male here one of these days.Stonechats are easy to see, they normally perch at the top of something, be it a pole or a bush! Photos taken in Alentejo, Portugal. #Photography
@Pardinus
Betfury is a crypto gambling platform, and has small faucets of btc and bnb, that basically allow you to gamble some for free! Until 25th of March there are some bigger bonuses to be won, so if having some fun playing dice or cards is your thing, this could be a good time to try your luck! #Leofinance
@Pardinus
To whoever dumped Index this way, all I can say is... thank you!! :)) I had a few orders way below, and all got filled. Selling this token with a great team behind it and with daily dividens, this cheap? All in!! ;) #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the green and black poison dart frog, Dendrobates auratus. It is believed that the toxicity of these frogs comes from their diet, since they lose its toxicity in captivity. Nevertheless, in the wild, the poison in this tiny frog is enough to kill an adult men! Photos taken in Cahuita, Costa Rica. #Photography
@Pardinus
Been playing around and experimenting strategies with Betfury, and I just reached my first 10 BFG! Why is this good? Because after having a minimum of 10 of these tokens, that you can only obtain by playing the games, you start earning daily rewards! Of course, 10 tokens give you basically zero daily income... but as is often heard, it's a marathon, not a sprint! ;) #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the black kite, Milvus migrans. This is one of the most common birds of prey in Portugal, roughly the same size as the common buzzard. One of the rare times I was able to capture a half-decent photo in flight! Photographed near Alqueva dam, in Alentejo, Portugal. #Photography
@Pardinus
I've been noticing that in some of my posts, seconds after I post I'll already have a spammy comment, normally emojis. Could we have bots here... or just lightning fast-fingers spammers? :))
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the sooty-headed bulbul, Pycnonotus aurigaster. This cute small songbird with a tiny crest can be found in south east Asia, and was a common visitor in our hostel in Lembongan, Bali. #Photography
@Pardinus
Betfury had some sort of a password reset today, but up until recently most users were having trouble in resetting their passwords, since the email Betfury should send to continue the process wasn't arriving. If you were one of those users, situation seems to be fixed now: you can reset your password, and gamble all that crypto again! :)
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the Great Spotted Cuckoo, Clamator glandarius. This was only the second time in my life that I spotted one! As other members of the cuckoos family, it's a parasite species: they lay their eggs in other species nests, and let them do all the parenting work! Photos taken in Alqueva, Portugal. #Photography
@Pardinus
Markets seem to be taking a beating today. But in the sea of red, what do we see? Hive on green!! Now trading around 0,65 cents, but reached 0.76! Will we see a new ATH soon? :) #Hive
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the montezuma oropendola, Psarocolius montezuma. These cute birds can be found in central America. Males are bigger than females, but both sexes have similar colours. And they can be noisy: it was the sound that made me found this tree full of nests! Photos taken in Tortuguero, Costa Rica. #Photography
@Pardinus
Do you use any apps to help you improve your productivity? I'm using Notion, but feel it a bit not so simple as it should be. I want a clean interface, with easy to set to-do lists, the ability to add quick notes, and schedules daily/weekly/any time frame goals and tasks. Anyone advice, or any app experience sharing, is welcome!
@Pardinus
How cool is it to start the working day with a bicycle ride near the sea? Yep, I do take a lot longer coming to work than if I were driving... but the planet and my health say thank you! 😁
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the great bustard, Otis tarda. The males of this species are the heaviest birds alive that are still capable of flight: they can reach 16 kg! Photos taken in a breeding facility in Spain; this one is the male, in a nuptial display. #Photography
@Pardinus
What a great way to start the day! Thank you all for being on this journey with me. And now... off to the next 200! Goooood morning everyone! 🙂
@Pardinus
One of the great things about Celsius: the communication with the community! Still wasn't able to hear the A.M.A.... but crossing my fingers for some news about in-app coin swapping! #Leofinance
@Pardinus
More good news... yesterday I woke up to realise I had passed the 200 subscribers mark. And today I realise I have 75% of my initial goal achieved as well! 0,1BCH, here I go! Are you achieving your noise.cash goals? #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Seems more and more you have ways to gather free crypto: just found out there's a FPS game that lets you stack satoshis! The game is Bitcoin Bounty Hunt, and seems to be in very early stages, but who knows? Might be worth it to keep an eye on it, for the gamers out there. For what I've seen, as soon you can gather 5k satoshis you can start withdrawals. If you want to check it out, go to https://bitcoinbountyhunt.com/ Have a great weekend! #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Serilously, Hive? 60% in one hour??? Crazy pump! Would prefer to see sustained growth until the 0,8$ mark, since after a pump, normally a dump comes along; but even so, how cool is it to see Hive almost touching its ATH? :) #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the common crane, Grus grus. A few more photos of this big bird that chooses to visit Portugal for the winter. They're gregarious, so if you're lucky enought to see one... you'll probably see a lot more! Photos taken in Mourão, Portugal. #Portugal
@Pardinus
Index keeps being dumped... and I keep buying it! Totally understand that people want to take advantage of Hive's pump; but on the long term, how much will these tokens that provide daily dividends and have a solid team behind it will be worth? Ps. please continue, I'm only 30 Index away from my yearly goal! :)) #Leofinance
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the ring-necked parakeet, Psittacula krameri. This species is considered an invasive species in Portugal, since captive birds escaped and created wild populations; it's fairly easy to see them near Lisboa. This photos, however, were taken in their natural habitat! Photos from Tangalle, Sri Lanka. #Photography
@Pardinus
I would have thought that with all the warnings, we would at least see a slow down of spam. But no; some people still prefer to make shitty comments/ have bots do them, or simply ask for follows instead of wasting that same time producing anything useful. I remember reading a post from noise.cash not that long ago, where the numbers shown a HUGE difference between the number of existing accounts and the accounts receiving free tips... and more and more I can understand why!…
@Pardinus
Finally, last item needed to improve my mining operations dropped: welcome, infused extractor! Still all commons, but do notice TLM mined each time seems steadier, if not higher. Now, let's see if the game can actually live to its expectations, or if we're doomed to just endless mining... :) #AlienWorlds
@Pardinus
Just another very hard day at the office... let's just say our resident cat wasn't in the mood for any kind of nap interruption! 😁 #Photography
@Pardinus
Another Splinterlands season is ending! Are you battling like a madman or patiently waiting and hoping to get lucky with the season rewards? Hope mine are better than last season. Well... it would be impossible to do worse, so I'm sure I'm not going to be disappointed! :)) Good luck, fellow Splintermaniacs! #Hive
@Pardinus
Daily wildlife photography: the red squirrel, Sciurus vulgaris. These cute guys can be found throughout europe, and not only in the forests; it's easy to see them in city parks as well. The hard part is getting them to stand still to take a photo, since they can be lightning fast! Photos taken in Budapest, Hungary. #Photography
@Pardinus
Another Splinterlands season has ended!My main account was the normal disgrace... but can't complain on my alt account, thow: the first two chests I opened had 1 legendary and 1 rare gold! The game would be fun to play even without these rewards, but it's always great to received good cards. Any luck on those season rewards? #Hive
