Hive Power Up day and My Monthly Hive Report The first date of every month is celebrated as Hive power-up day. Today again is Hive power-up day and I'm glad to participate again in this. I know I'm not eligible for any contest or anything but I want to participate for the fun aspect of it and to show my support for the growth of this blockchain. I'm happy in doing this because my personal account is also growing because of this. This Hive Power Up day is also additionally…
My DEC earnings from Splinterlands I have been checking and documenting my DEC earnings from the game for the past few months. I have a lot of splinterlands assets that give me some passive income when I rent them out. The rewards are in the form of DEC tokens. The rewards for the liquidity pool were also given in DEC but looks like last month they changed it and started giving it out as SPS. So the rewards this month from Liquidity pools are going to be half DEC and half…
My Honeygain Stats for last month As many people would already know that I have been using Honeygain for more than a year now. It has been a long time since I checked my stats there. Today I was curious to check how the stats were looking. I'm guessing it would be nice to do this activity once a month to check how Honeygain is doing. I would like to leave my referral below so that anyone interested in joining this for a decent passive income can try it.…
My Hive Goals - Weekly progress report Today I'm very happy and glad to share that I have successfully completed one of my goals of reaching 50k Hive power. This is one of the top goals I had for this year. I was expecting it to naturally get completed before the year but fortunately, it was completed sooner than expected which is a very good thing. I'm sure my consistent push towards completing the goal was one of the biggest reasons and another biggest reason was the price…
My earnings from dCity game The first week of every month I usually share lots of earnings reports and stats from my account. Most of the earnings are from the Hive ecosystem and each one is different. Some are very small earnings and some are bigger earnings but at the end of the day, they mean a lot to me. This article is going to have details on my dCity game earnings report. I'm not very active on this game but I do have a decent amount of assets in this game and have…
I wrote a tutorial on how to combine disks on a dedicated server issued by Hetzner. This is a step-by-step guide to run through the process. https://hive.blog/@balaz/step-by-step-guide-to-merge-disks-in-linux-on-hetzner-dedicated-server
Earning JMPT through Honeygain I recently wrote an article explaining how I have been earning some passive income from Honeygain. I thought it would make a lot more sense if I share the JMPT earnings too along with my Honeygain report. The most attractive thing about JMPT tokens is the price of the tokens is pretty decent and was not affected by the bear market. It has been showing decent progress and growth. I don't know how they are maintaining the price of the tokens but…
My Rising Star earnings report Rising star is one of my favorite games on Hive and I have been playing this game for a very long time. People find this game interesting because it is old school and is also simple and easy to play. There are also challenges in the game that goes in line with the game mechanics and sometimes people will have to think a lot to do proper investments to progress in the game. There are still people continuing to invest in the game looking for a…
Love Today - Tamil movie review I realized that it has been a while since I wrote a movie review. I wanted to write one today. These days it looks like younger generation movies are now a thing and most of the recent movies are targeted toward the younger generation. The trend keeps changing and a while back there were a lot of thriller movies and horror movies. That season slowly ended and this is the first film in the genre done by a young director who himself acted as the…
Investment during the holiday season It is said that the December season is the Holiday season and most companies don't plan any big things during this season. The investments are also very minimal during this season as people save up a lot of money and wait for the bright season. Due to holiday expenses and festival expenses, people will run short of money. I have heard that some companies also help their employees by doing a double payroll during the month of December to…
Crypto companies will need a sustainable income flow Recently splinterlands reduced their staff count and not just splinterlands and I have been hearing about this from several companies. When the bear market starts or when cryptocurrencies start losing their value, many companies have to take tough decisions like these to reduce their headcount to manage their expenses. The same happens in the real world as well when there is a recession. In the company where I work, there…
Can Bitcoin change our life? The simple answer to this question is YES. But I would like to elaborate a little on my answer. Bitcoin is one of the most important digital assets in the world and in the coming years it will gain more popularity and people who ignored the importance of Bitcoin would start coming back. There are so many celebrities already owning a decent amount of Bitcoin and some of the biggest companies have also started having Bitcoin as their important…
BTC Vibes similar to what we had before 4 years Yesterday I met my friend after a very long time. He is in a very good position right now with respect to crypto. We used to do a lot of share market trading together and later he switched to crypto and now he is in a very good position and earning a decent passive income from his investment to lead a good retirement life. The important thing to note here is that he is still in his early 30s and he is already financially…
Be careful with stable coins Sometimes we think that stablecoins are the best investment in the crypto world. Not all stablecoins are as good as Hive and offer 20% APR for your investments. But I would say we shouldn't rely too much on the stable coin as well. It is not easy to predict what can happen to a coin. Even USDT and other popular stable coins have lost their stability in the past and have performed very badly during a market crash. It takes a lot of time to get the…
Blockchain tech gain popularity in crypto winter season When we usually have bear markets, we call it the winter season for crypto. Not because it is winter everywhere but because most of the cryptocurrencies don't perform very great and they wait for the good season to come back. One good thing about the crypto winter is that many cryptocurrencies and blockchain projects continue to work and do more developments. When the bull market is back, they reap the profits.…
Not all games are successful in the blockchain world Blockchain games are gaining more popularity these days mostly because of the tokenization features and NFT features blockchain provides. Any normal game can be converted to a blockchain game and extra perks can be added where people can trade assets with each other. That's one of the key features of any blockchain game because it gives an earning opportunity for the players. All the good old games are really good and…
5 years on Hive Blockchain - Happy Hive Birthday to me As of yesterday, I have completed 5 years on Hive. I'm very happy and glad to share this. I actually forgot and only when I was about to hit the bed I realized that yesterday was my Hive birthday. I then thought I should write an article and share my happiness today. I have so many memories to share and Hive means a lot to me now. I have made many friends here and this has also been a great learning platform and a…
My Hive Goals - Weekly progress report It has been two weeks since I wrote my weekly progress report on my Hive Goals. One of the reasons was that I completed one of the major goals I had for the year and another reason is that I was traveling last week and I couldn't sit and work out my weekly stats and write on the same. I'm usually very happy to review my account stats every week and write a post on the same. I think the progress is still going very well. I now have to…
CBI 5 The Brain - Malayalam movie review I'm a huge fan of crime thriller movies and TV series. While surfing through Netflix we found this movie. It appears that this movie is one of the recent movies and was recommended to me by Netflix. I wanted to give it a try and we watched some scenes in the movie and the trailer we liked the movie and started watching it. I should say that it was a great movie and the acting was excellent. I mostly watch all the regional movies in…
People cashing out during Christmas For the past few days, I have been noticing a massive fall in the price of Hive and even though I'm not worried too much about this, I'm glad that it is at least giving us enough opportunity to purchase cheap. In the crypto world, something like this is ubiquitous. Mostly during the end of every year, people cash out for multiple reasons and Christmas is one of the biggest reasons. There are also people who buy crypto during their festival…
5 reasons why Bitcoin cannot be used to create games There is a common misconception that blockchain concepts are common and it fits all the blockchain requirements. It is not true. Not all blockchains can be used for NFTs or even for creating a token and side chain. Maybe some blockchains abide by some of the blockchain rules but Bitcoin is one such selective chain that has lots of limitations and cannot be used for a few things. One such thing is game creation. In this…
Do not be afraid of bad market trend Some people panic when the price of the coin on their watch list goes down. It is not a bad thing to have a bear market. In fact, the price of the coin going up and down is a good thing as it creates lots of opportunities for the traders and also introduces more people to trading. There is a small difference between the bear market in the stock market and the crypto markets. In the crypto markets, there is a high possibility that a coin…
Interesting video showing how plants breathe I recently read an interesting article describing how plants use their Stomata for breathing. There was also a video published on the Science X youtube channel showing this breathing process. Stomata open and close as the plants take in carbon dioxide and water and release oxygen. It was an interesting read. https://phys.org/news/2022-12-scientists-mechanism-mouths.html Stomata are small openings found on the surface of plant…
Hive had a sudden pump today giving a great opportunity for swing trades Did you make use of the Hive pump we had today? I'm happy and glad that I was able to make use of this pump. Last week when the price of Hive went below 30 cents, I bought some Hive for 28 cents. Today when I saw the price spiking to 33 cents, I sold some of my Hive for 33 cents and make a quick profit. Buying them for 28 cents and selling them for 33 cents is a great deal I guess. I have talked about…
My Hive Goals - Weekly progress report After I completed my major goal to reach 50k Hive power, I felt as if I have completed all my goals. But I still have one more active goal to be completed before the end of the year. There are only 5 more days before the year ends. In these 5 days, I have to reach 100k SPS in total. I was thinking if it was a possibility or not but it appears to be a challenging task unless I purchase some SPS from the market and stake it. This is also…
Can blockchain make tax collection easier and better I was wondering if we would be able to make our tax system better by any means. Maybe blockchain technology can be used to make things easier with tax collection. Along with tax collection, there can also be visibility created for the taxpayers. Even if we go 100% digital, the government will always be with us and we cannot fully mitigate taxes. As a citizen of a country, we all will have to end up paying our taxes. One of…
Top 10 coins to decorate my Portfolio in 2023 We are at the end of the year and approaching a new year. 2023 is expected to bring lots of opportunities to the crypto folks. At least that is what we all believe. Things have been very slow in this crypto winter. People are silently doing their investments and hopefully, they would be ready for the bull run to book their profits. Today I was checking my portfolio and was wondering what I should be focusing on for the upcoming…
Funds can suddenly disappear from Exchanges When it comes to investments, exchanges and centralized wallets are the first risky place to keep our assets. 90 percent of the time it may not be a problem to hold the assets on Exchanges but there is a high chance that things can go wrong and we might end up falling under the 10% category. It is always safe to keep the funds in wallets instead of exchanges. Funds get stolen now and then from exchange wallets. There have been such…
Top 10 tokens inside Hive to decorate my Portfolio in 2023 A few days back when I wrote about my top 10 picks for 2023, there were a few people asking me about the second-layer tokens on Hive. I thought I should write an exclusive post on that and that's one of the reasons why I did not include them in my previous post. I'm definitely all in for the second layer tokens and I'm sure some of these tokens are going to be there in my portfolio in the year 2023. I used to have a…
My 2022 Hive Stats and a small recap Tomorrow is going to be the last date of the year and I wanted to check my 2022 Hive Stats and also share a post on that. I have a portal that can be used by anyone to check their 2022 Hive Stats. They had data only for the year 2021 so far. Today I got a chance to update it to show data from 2022. Below is the website and people can check their own stats. https://hivedata.live/totals There were so many ups and downs this year. The year…
My Publish0x stats - Monthly report As I always say, stats are very important and are also highly motivating. I used to share my Publish0x stats every month. I stopped doing that for a while and I thought it would be good to start doing that once again and started sharing my stats for the last two months. Today is the last date of the year and I'm hoping the new year should bring us lots of opportunities and prosperity. My Publish0x stats look great this month and especially…
