Buy The Dip - PolyCub Opportunities The Options Here we are again. Another great project is dipping in price. Another chance to either say "oh no I don't want to buy, the price is falling" or a chance to BUY THE DIP. By using capital letters, I have emphasized what the better choice is (NFA)... PolyCub has dipped down significantly over the last few days, though honestly that is to be expected with the nature of the token itself as it is still being airdropped and the supply…

Back At It: The State of The Hive Blockchain I had a few days offline this weekend and it was a great break for me, but now we are right back at it. PolyCub The first thing that I checked up on when I got back online was the value of Polycub and where the xPolyCub ratio was at. As expected, the value of PolyCub has continued to decrease as more PolyCub are mined. However, as the Polycub per block has now decreased to 1, it is certainly possible that the bottom is in or near…

You're Only As Good As Your Worst Day Image Source https://fs.blog/worst-day/ Here We Go Again Well just as soon as I got started with getting back in the swing of things this week, I got some bad news from an old friend and have to deal with a personal issue that has been plaguing me for months now. In the past, when things would go bad in my life, they would sort of have a domino effect where everything would spiral and make it worse overall. Event 1 would trigger me to do…

Active Trading: First Time In A Long Time Image Source https://medium.com/phoenix-finance/a-deep-dive-into-leverages-in-defi-borrowing-margin-trading-leveraged-tokens-perpetuals-ed9019bd6833 This week I will be taking a very small portion of my paycheck and seeing what I can do actively trading in the markets. I will not be taking 100x leverage positions and freaking out about it all day, but I may try my hand at something like 5x leverage and see what I am able to do. Once…

My First Leverage Play - BNB Just took my first leveraged position of my life! I took a 13x long position in BNB when it was at $433.5. I made it 13x because the peak of my risk tolerance for the position was 15x and 13x is supposed to be an unlucky number, but I no longer believe in luck... And........ It is currently going about as well as every other time I've gotten involved with anything related to money haha: I'm enjoying some wonderful 12% unrealized losses in my…

A Great Accumulation Period Image Source https://medium.datadriveninvestor.com/the-4-phases-of-a-crypto-market-cycle-6eb396097b9c Honestly, there has not been much craziness in the crypto markets as of late. Of course that is a relative term based on what types of assets you choose to invest in, because we have seen 5-10% swings in the markets, but I haven't quite seen the carnage or boom that we have become accustomed to in the cryptocurrency space. When it comes to assets…

Sticking To Stacking Image Source https://brickhunter.com/blog/how-to-build-a-brick-wall-a-step-by-step-guide Went Leveraged Long 13x Andddddddd we were liquidated haha. I learned a few valuable lessons from investing with leverage that have led me to conclude that it is not going to be for me. 1. The Market Doesn't Make Sense I think that one absolute myth is that there are people who think that they are able to predict the market based on price trends. I did some research…

The Value of Cross-Platform Engagement Well it's days like this that I struggle to find a topic to write about. The markets are in the dumps right now, everyone has written about PolyCub and Cub Finance to the point where there isn't much more to cover (because everyone seems to be a fan and has done some research already). I looked at Splinterlands markets and they are pretty steady minus a few legendary cards regaining some value (i.e. Kron the Undying up $65 in the last…

Hive-Backed Dollar - Insanity Without Volatility I am just absolutely shocked at seeing a stablecoin being as lucrative as the Hive-Backed Dollar is. With the most recent decisions by the top witnesses on the Hive blockchain, the APR for Hive-Backed Dollars stored in savings is now 20%... That number is astronomical. Of course it isn't the 10000% returns we see when a new protocol is launched, but 20% on a stablecoin that should hold steady around $1 is just unheard of.…

It's Still So Early For DeFi Image Source https://www.business2community.com/cybersecurity/decentralized-finance-defi-in-a-nutshell-02408290 Today I was showing a friend all about PolyCub, Cub Finance and ThorSwap as she was asking about what Decentralized Finance was and what it will end up being in the future. The fact that decentralized finance is still not a concept that the mass public understands is really intriguing to me. Of course it is not wildly unexpected as…

Age Of Gods - Cool Upcoming Play2Earn Game Yesterday I came across a Brave Ad for a new NFT game that is launching on the Binance Smart Chain network called Age of Gods. I did a little bit of research on it and decided to make a small investment in their in game token because it looked to be a promising new release. In reality, a lot of games that gather investments before they are launched end up flopping or not launching at all, so don't take this as financial advice as it…

Why You Need To Stake pHBD-USDC on PolyCub.com Over the last few days, there has been a ton going on in the Hive ecosystem relating to the Hive-Backed Dollar. First we saw the witnesses boost the interest on savings percentage to 20% and then we saw the @leofinance team drop a huge new farm on the Polycub.com site. https://leofinance.io/@leofinance I have just recently come to find out that the Hive-Backed dollar is the oldest algorithmic stablecoin in the cryptocurrency…

RUNE Will Be Explosive Image Source https://phemex.com/academy/what-is-thorchain-rune-crypto The Ecosystem It is no secret that I am a huge fan of RUNE and THORchain, as are many that use web 3.0 blogging sites such as @leofinance. https://leofinance.io/@leofinance The goal of their protocol is to create a cross-chain DEX that unites blockchains and creates passive income for users. They also seek to have strong decentralized governance protocol that could be used to build…

Splinterlands Vouchers - An Under The Radar Investment? Speculation If you play Splinterlands, it is very likely that you have a vested interest in seeing the value of the ecosystem increase as time goes on. Whether you have decided to purchase in game assets to play with or rent out, play2earn is an important factor in why we play the game. With the launch of the Waka Spiritblade summoner, we saw just how much money can get pumped through the ecosystem when people recognize…

My Best Splinterlands Pull - Play 2 Earn Potential Last night I got incredibly lucky when I made the decision to purchase four chaos legion packs from the store to get my total packs purchased up to 200. I was able to pull this bad boy out of pack number two: Gold-Foiled Baakjira valued at $118 It's still crazy to me how NFT's maintain such high levels of value, but in the case of Splinterlands there is some real utility behind that price tag. With this card specifically, I…

Does Hive Need Oracles? Image Source https://blockchainhub.net/blockchain-oracles/ One type of cryptocurrency that I have become very interested in investing in has been oracles.

Oracles make up approximately 1.3% of the cryptocurrency market. Here is the definition of oracles from the Chainlink…

When Buying Crypto, Make Sure You're Actually Buying Crypto A Misunderstanding One thing that seems to go right over a lot of people's heads (especially those new to the game) is that if you don't own the keys to your wallet, you actually don't own any cryptocurrency. One of the things that bothers me the most is when someone will come up to me and say that they bought Bitcoin. I will be really happy to hear that this person is exploring the cryptocurrency ecosystem and I'll…
