My Publish0x Monthly Stats - June 2021 To be honest, this month I'm not very excited about my Publish0x monthly stats. The main reason is that I wasn't able to spend enough time writing articles and reading content on Publish0x. Another factor is that the earning opportunity on Publish0x has also reduced a bit compared to the previous months. I usually do this post on the last date of the month but this time for a change I'm posting it on the first of the next month. But I…
@bala41288 in July 2021
I just published a post on my Publish0x stats for the previous month. It was not a great month but it is indeed important to do an assessment. You can find more details in the post. Hope things should be good in the future. https://www.publish0x.com/bala/my-publish0x-monthly-stats-june-2021-xoolnze #Publish0X
Powered up 100 Hive today | My monthly Hive stats and earnings report I initially thought I will not write this post because my activity was not very great last month but then I thought I shouldn't miss the consistency. Hence sharing my previous month's stats. To start with, I have successfully powered up a minimum of 100 Hive today for the occasion of Hive power-up day. If you are hearing about Hive Power up day for the very first time, you can check out the below posts…
Rising Star - Crafted my first Instrument | Opened 6 packs to check my luck I have been playing the Rising star games for a very long time. I'm really glad about the different opportunities and features the game gives us. I have been exploring one feature after the other whenever I find some time. I know I'm a bit late to explore some of the features because it was launched long back. But never too late to try something new right? So, in the last two days, I got a chance to…
Creating a financial goal to save a minimum of 100$ in HBD savings Today I was reviewing my portfolio and I noticed that I don't have enough stable coin funds at all. I have been wanting to do some savings in stablecoin for a very long time. Every time I keep some reserved funds in the form of stable coins, there will be another opportunity to invest in. This time, I have planned to use HBD as a good stable coin investment platform. Source…
Are your collecting candies in CoinGecko? I have been using CoinGecko for a long time. I was initially using CoinMarketCap and then switched to using CoinGecko only last year. After the chain split happened between Hive and Steem I was looking for a good site and then ended up with CoinGecko. For some reason, CoinMarketCap did not work out well for me and I thought of not using it anymore. But CoinGecko was great that provided exactly the same things we needed and that's a…
Have you been collecting your candies on CoinGecko? I have been doing that for a while now and today I found that I have reached a decent value in Candies which I can use to buy some perks from CoinGecko. For now, I'm going to keep accumulating so that I can buy something awesome later. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/are-your-collecting-candies-in-coingecko #Leofinance
OurGlass is up by 156% in the last 14 days OurGlass was my first small coin investment ever. Only after that, I invested a little bit in Shiba tokens as well. I never knew that coins before launch have so much potential and could give you a great opportunity once launched. I have to thank @raymondspeaks for showing us light on this. Though he asked us to do our own research, I would like to thank him because if he had not told me this, I would have not done my research on…
I wouldn't advise anyone to invest straight away but this is something that definitely needs consideration. OurGlass is a project that is still in development mode and hasn't been launched yet. But it had a decent increase of about 156% in the last two weeks. Do your own research before investment but wouldn't hurt if we do a small investment. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/ourglass-is-up-by-156-in-the-last-14-days #Leofinance
Rising Star - Unlucky in finding band members | Opened 6 packs today I'm a bit sad that I have completed nearly 11 Band Auditions so far and I have not received even a single band member. I don't know why I'm so unlucky in this. @r1s2g3 unlocked all the band members in a row with huge luck and that was indeed great. https://leofinance.io/@r1s2g3 I started with this mission only after him and I was also expecting the same thing. I was initially thinking that I have the…
I opened 6 packs today and I still don't have any luck in finding a single band member. I have been trying continuously but it is still not happening. Hopefully, I need some more patience and soon I will see the first band member. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/rising-star-unlucky-in-finding-band-members-or-opened-6-packs-today #RisingStar
Automation is not a new concept, it was always there Today when I thinking about automation, a simple analogy came to my mind. I thought I will comprehend that thought in the form of an article. Automation is one of the hottest topics in today's world. In every field we go to, there is always automation. People always look forward to simplifying the way they do things and that innovates to a scope of automation. Source…
Reached 100$ worth of BCH through blogging I'm totally surprised by the number of opportunities we get in this crypto world. Blogging is one such opportunity where we can share our thoughts and earn an income from that. I'm glad to find a few blogging sites like that and do a regular contribution to see some good sources of income. It was definitely not an easy ride. After so many hurdles and roadblocks, I'm now consistent in writing articles every day. When talking about…
Thanks to all my supporters and the Read Cash team as well. Today I have crossed 100$ worth of BCH. All these came from blogging rewards on Read Cash and also through Noise cash. I'm glad that I was able to reach 100$ within a short span of time. I have shared my happiness in a full article. I'm hoping to reach my goal of 1 BCH soon. https://read.cash/@bala41288/reached-100-worth-of-bch-through-blogging-748dd8fa #NoiseCash
One Industry is having its good time even though it is COVID Many companies have reported loss due to the Covid situation across the world. Many small business were also closed in this tough situation. Companies are laying off their employees as part of cost cutting. Some employees get only 50 percent of their salary ever since COVID 19 started. These are some tough things this world is experiencing ever since COVID. I happened to meet a businessman two days back. He came…
In spite of the covid situation we have, there is still one industry that is having its good time. It is the Pharma industry. Some financial experts have been thinking about investing in the Pharma industry to book some long-term profits. https://stemgeeks.net/hive-163521/@bala41288/one-industry-is-having-its-good-time-even-though-it-is-covid #Leofinance
My Hive Goals for 2021 - First weekly status update I have been sharing my goals for a long time. But today I read a lot of articles where people were sharing their Hive goals with a weekly progress update. I thought it will be a good idea and why not start it from today. This is going to be such a post where I'm planning to share my Hive goals and my progress towards the goal every week. I'm already sharing my monthly stats from Hive as well as other platforms but I did not…
Finally, I have set my goals on Hive blockchain for 2021. I got inspiration from few of the friends who have been doing this every week. I always wanted to set a goal and work towards that. I guess going forward this will be one of my activities every week and it is going to be fun looking at the numbers and the way I progress towards reaching my goal. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/my-hive-goals-for-2021-first-weekly-status-update #CtpTalk
Is buying bitcoin now a wise idea? Today when I was checking my portfolio, I was a bit sad thinking that I don't have any Bitcoin in my portfolio. Only when I joined the crypto world, I invested in Bitcoin and double my investment in just 2 months. That was when I decided that I should give this crypto industry a try. I then search for making cryptocurrencies instead of purchasing and investing and that is when I ended up in ~~Steem~~ Hive. Source…
Today I was wondering if investing in Bitcoin at the current price would make sense or not. I also read a few articles online that discussed this topic. A few friends who are new to crypto also asked me the same question. I personally think that it definitely makes sense and I might do some investment in the coming months because I don't have any BTC holding right now. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/is-buying-bitcoin-now-a-wise-idea #Leofinance
Most of the coins are red today and Hive is having a jolly ride I have this habit of looking at the crypto market as soon as I wake up. Today when I woke up from my bed, I was just checking my Coingecko to see the watchlist and to my surprise, Hive had a great pump in the last few hours. The good thing about the pump is that it is not a short-term pump but the price is looking very stable. I was surprised by this because the other coins are having a bad day and declining in…
Today morning I woke up to see the crypto markets in red and to my surprise Hive pumped to 43 cents. I placed a sell order at 35 cents for a short-term trade and it was filled. This makes me realize that nothing is predictable in the crypto world. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/most-of-the-coins-are-red-today-and-hive-is-having-a-jolly-ride #Leofinance
Moved my DOT tokens from Cub Finance back to Binance After a long time, yesterday, I was checking my Cub Finance and how it was performing. It's been a long time and I had left it there to just accumulate passive income. I noticed that it's been more than 40 days and around 40 CUB was waiting for Harvest. I don't usually harvest frequently. One good thing about Kingdoms is that we don't have to harvest anything there. It keeps compounding. But I did not have all my funds in…
Today I moved my DOT from Cub Finance to Binance as CUB Finance is no longer giving staking rewards for DOT. I had to choose Binance because I couldn't find any other place that can be suitable and easy to use and also gives a little over 11% APR. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/moved-my-dot-tokens-from-cub-finance-back-to-binance #Leofinance
More than 12 percent APR after the new curation window changes post HF24 Hive has been one of the best blockchains out there compared to similar rewarding blogging platforms. I know there are also a few more rewarding platforms like Publish0x, Read Cash, etc., I would say that Hive is great because we have a facility to power up and have a stake and use that to reward other users. This is something that is exclusive to Hive and the good thing about this is that it gives more…
The new curation window is working really great on Hive. It has been over 15 days already since the Hard Fork and I noticed that the accounts are getting a little over 12% APR for curation. https://leofinance.io/@bala41288/more-than-12-percent-apr-after-the-new-curation-window-changes-post-hf24 #Leofinance
Doge is just a coin with a dog on it Today I read an interesting article where the doge coin creator calls crypto a scam. I have to say that it is an interesting article because it has lots of facts in it. He mentions that cryptocurrency was primarily created for the following three things such as tax avoidance, diminished regulatory oversight, and artificially enforced scarcity. There were also many other points specified in this context.…
I think Doge is just a over hyped coin with just a dog on it. My friends still ask me if it is wise to invest on Doge at the current price. I personally think that it is not worth it. What do you think? https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@bala41288/doge-is-just-a-coin-with-a-dog-on-it #Leofinance

5 General tips for a new crypto trader or investor Trading and investment are two different things and usually, people mix both concepts. It is a fact that not everyone can be a successful trader as soon as they start their trading journey. Some people learn by doing some mistakes due to greed and some people learn by watching others. I have done both. Source https://pixabay.com/illustrations/mutual-funds-fund-growth-equity-6406534/ In this article, I would like to share…
My Hive Goals - Weekly progress report This is the very first week after I set my goals last week. I'm very excited to share my progress in this post. I have been continuously trying to stay active on the chain to increase my rewarding possibilities. As always I write articles every day not mostly for the rewards but for the sake of keeping the consistency. The rewards from posts have reduced these days compared to the past but I still manage to write at least a minimum of…
DEC price had a sudden pump. I'm not sure if the reason was because of Hive price but usually, DEC is soft pegged to 1$ per 1000 coins, now it is way more than that soft peg. Maybe this is a good opportunity to sell and stabilize the price a bit. But this has been the case for a week already. I sold some of my holdings for this price. I will be buying them back when the price goes down again. #Splinterlands
Fitness tracking with MI Band 4 Today for a change I'm not going to be writing any finance-related article. But something related to fitness. I recently received a MI Band 4 as a gift for getting a special mention in a hackathon in my office. I did not expect there should be some significant gift from that but I'm glad that the gift was indeed very useful. If I remember it right, I used to have a fitness tracker over 5 years back when MI band was first launched. But at that…
I started using a fitness tracker in the last 2 days. I'm already enjoying it. It was given to me as a gift from my office. Check out the below post to know more details on the same.

Hive is falling down but how to make use of this bear market? Market going up and down is always good. It encourages people to do new investments and also to book profits. For the past few months, the market has been in the red especially there is no big movement in the price of BTC. I know BTC is not the only cryptocurrency out there for trading but as BTC is low right now, the other coins are also going down gradually. The price of Hive was also brought down to as low as…
More light on the gaming industry In the recent few months, the gaming industry is having a good time. Especially people in the blockchain world see the gaming industry as a great opportunity which is indeed a great thing. Many people who have an interest in playing games have now started thinking about launching their own games either individually or by joining hands with big gaming companies. I used to be a big fan of games and I used to play a lot of games a few years…
In the coming years, the gaming industry is going to change drastically. People who are in playforfun mode will slowly start switching towards play2earn model as many games have now started to offer play2earn features. https://read.cash/@bala41288/more-light-on-the-gaming-industry-da0e546d #Gaming

I heard some unusual sound in my backyard today and found this new bird species. This is not something that is very common around our habitat. This was the closest I could get to take the shot. The bird was continuously moving and I also had to zoom a little to get the shot. These are the moments I wish I had a DSLR camera so that I can take a HD picture of these wonderful birds.
I don't know how many of you guys are there in BitClout. But I signed up today and it appears to be a new concept and interesting. It is on a blockchain and it can be used as a Twitter alternative soon I believe. Below is the link to my profile. https://bitclout.com/u/bala #Leofinance
Looking for a Twitter alternative that pays you? Try BitClout We all know how centralized Twitter is but still, we know many people are using Twitter as their promotional platform. Some of the popular accounts also got censored and the censorship is always there because it is a centralized media platform. Now I think it is the ideal time to look for alternative decentralized options. We would have seen many Twitter-like platforms built on Blockchains but this BitClout is…
DEC is on the way to Moon. The price pumped hard today. If you would like to know what is DEC, you can read the below article that I wrote today. Do you think it is a good selling opportunity or a buying opportunity? leofinance.io/@bala41288/dec-is-on-the-way-to-moon-or-are-you-buying-or-selling #Splinterlands
DEC is on the way to Moon | Are you buying or selling? Splinterlands is one of the most interesting Blockchain games on Hive and it has a very huge market cap compared to other games on Hive and even on other blockchains if I'm not wrong. DEC is the utility token of splinterlands and is listed on Hive Engine. Today DEC had a huge pump going towards the moon. I don't know what made this pump but someone is going crazy about purchasing DEC big time. Those who have been holding…
Today I had a good chance to visit a nearby lake. It is currently a good habitat for lots of crows. I was able to capture few shots there. It was a strong nesting zone for the crows. I took these shots from a close distance. I'm planning to take some more neat shots when I visit next time. #Nature
I guess when there are enough things to eat crows and other birds nest in the lake regions and breed. These days it has become hard to see birds nesting and breeding near the residential areas. Happy to see many birds roaming and nesting around the lake region at least. Good morning from this part of the world. #Nature
My Hive Goals - Weekly progress report Every Sunday is getting really exciting for me to check my progress. This is the second week since I set the goals and started progressing. It has been exciting for two weeks already. I guess the progress last week was pretty decent but let's go and check the stats to make sure it was good. I don't know who came up with the idea of having a weekly update post but this is really motivating. In the last week, few days were a little…
I guess I'm opening my quest rewards from my desktop web page after a very long time. I regularly play the game only from my mobile interface. In the last two days especially after the DEC price went up, I guess it is now good not to keep the ECR at 100%. I believe this is a good pull today. #Splinterlands
Every Sunday I review the status of the goals that I have set on Hive Blockchain for 2021. Today is the day to review. Check out my post for more details. I guess I have made decent progress, what do you think? leofinance.io/@bala41288/my-hive-goals-weekly-progress-report-34fscr #Leofinance
Today when I went to the lake to view the beauty of the nature, I noticed a nest in the tree. The nest was pretty close so that I was able to take a picture and observe what was happening. A crow chick was sitting in the nest with its mouth wide open. Chicks are usually like that and parents go hunting looking for some food to feed the baby crow. It is really amazing to see the beauty of the nature and it's order. #Nature

For people who are hearing about Muterra for the very first time, I would recommend visiting Muterra site to know more about the game. This is going to be an interesting game with a big roadmap. We have already hit many milestones and the development is going smooth so far. I'm one of the developers of the game. It has been a very busy week and still going to be busy for another week I…

Are you enjoying the SPS rewards from Splinterlands? I have a good collection of splinterlands cards but I stopped playing the game a while ago. I did start playing the game again recently on my alt account but have not been very regular in playing the game. Today I was surprised to see everyone talking about the SPS token drop. I have not been following their posts and updates recently which now makes me think that I should stay updated. Every time Splinterlands comes up…
Found something that I wanted to share. I was replying to someone today and I thought of including my splinterlands referral link. But looks like it is blocked on Noise cash. I got a message saying not to spam. So guys are careful and don't share your affiliate link in Noise cash. Looks like it is considered spam and has a risk of account deletion. #Splinterlands
Now is the right time to convert Hive to HBD For people who have been waiting to invest on HBD to get a flat 10% interest for investment, I would say today is a good time to do it. The reason is because of the huge pump Hive had today. Today morning when I woke up, I noticed that Hive was almost 40 cents today. I immediately rushed to Binance to sell my Hive at 40 cents. I couldn't catch it at 40 cents so I sold it at 39 cents and I have very happy thinking that the price…
Hive is going crazy today. Over 50% pump in the last 24 hours and it is still looking good in spite of lots of selling happening. Now maybe it is the best time to invest in HBD via Hive. leofinance.io/@bala41288/now-is-the-right-time-to-convert-hive-to-hbd #Leofinance

I guess today is another lucky day. Pulled a Gold foil card and I guess the card is worth 20$. I don't have this card yet in my collection and I'm glad to have this added to my collection. In addition to that, I also received another Rare card. I guess it was a decent pull altogether. #Splinterlands
Wow, third consecutive lucky day. I was opening the season-end rewards. I did not expect this at all. I pulled a Gold Foil legendary card. The market says it is worth 14k $ lol. I guess my fortune is looking good in the last few days. I hope this continues. #Splinterlands
