My Splinterlands Earnings Report Splinterlands is still one of the best games on Hive. This is from both a fun perspective as well as an investment I suppose. This is one of the games in the entire blockchain space with a decent player base. People use this as an investment platform or a gaming platform. That is the beauty of the game. Those who don't have time to play the game regularly can invest in this game by purchasing cards and renting them out in the market for the…
Fixed deposit investments alone will not make us rich It has been a practice to invest in Fixed deposits if we want a safe investment. I have also done that. Today I wanted to close one of my fixed deposits and open a new one later as the interest rates are getting better in India. People see Fixed deposits as safe investments. I would say this is the case because there are no complications and we don't have to spend time understanding about the investment strategies. A…
Roof top solar should be a mandatory thing for new homes Real estate is having good demand near my area. I don't know if that is the case in other places and other countries as well. But people are either renovating their own house or purchasing a new flat. This has been the case everywhere. I see this as a good opportunity to enter the real estate market. A few years back this was not the case and people struggled to sell their flats and people also stayed away from real…
Banks are watching our transactions We have to be very careful with our transactions. A few days back I shared an article on why we have to be very careful with the P2P transactions we do. Yesterday I noticed that Banks are very keen on what is happening in our account and they get immediately triggered when something big is happening in our account. I recently had an experience similar to this and I wanted to share the information in this article. When we keep our funds in…
Grab the right opportunity on Hive with patience Hive Blockchain provides enormous opportunities to earn and grow your account. There are several ways in which you can contribute to the ecosystem or earn from the ecosystem. But for everything to happen, we need a lot of patience. With good patience, we should be able to find our niche and grow in the blockchain and start earning some decent passive income from the chain. Blogging is also not the only source of income on…
Fun or Money - What to expect from Blockchain Games Blockchain games are going to be the future of gaming. Every game out there might start introducing a Play2Earn feature and start getting into Blockchain. We are able to see so many games already adding blockchain elements to the game to make it interesting for the players. The in-game assets used to be a collectible thing and now with the help of NFTs and Blockchain, people are given the freedom to trade those in-game…
Hive is going down - Good time to buy It is not just Hive that is going down but the entire crypto market is going down and the value is looking red. I don't know the real reason behind this. But this is definitely a great buying opportunity I would say and we can even expect the market to stay like this for a few days. The actual push happens only if the price of BTC starts going up again. Hive has always been my playground for trading both during good times as well as bad…

We are able to see so many advancements in this field and that has improved a lot in the last few years. Most of the recent hard disks are Solid State Devices that are highly efficient compared to regular HDD devices.…
My thoughts on exploring different blockchain platforms Hive is the only blockchain where I'm very active. I have explored the WAX blockchain while working on functionality for Muterra. Sometimes I used to wonder if I should be spending time exploring and understanding the concepts of other blockchains. If I have to create smart contracts on Hive and WAX, with my knowledge I should be able to do it. Other than these two, I don't have any knowledge of any of the other…

It was a great expectation when there were talks about the movie. Now that both parts are over, I should say that the efforts were…
What are the different earning opportunities in Metaverse games? Metaverse is still one of the hottest topics for discussion in the crypto world. Many expert blockchain leads are trying to create metaverse and I would say Metaverse games are the best fit to start with. With the help of Blockchain, the gaming development might be a bit slow when it comes to player interaction but from the security perspective and from the fact that people are able to earn money from playing…
My first Play2Earn experience I personally believe that Play2Earn is not a newly trending concept and I have seen this as a thing over the last 10 years. When I started exploring games for fun about 12 years back, there were already play2earn games available. People can compete with players online and earn a reward if they win the game. Counter-strike was very popular back then. These days with the help of web3, gaming is taking a new dimension and people are able to earn…
Using more than one credit card Credit cards have become one of the biggest needs in today's world. The way people see credit cards in other countries is a little different from how it is being seen in India. Most people might think that credit cards are for buying something with credit and paying them later. Even though that is true, there is also one more reason for using credit cards which is offers. People have multiple credit cards because offers are given on a timely…
Participating in Leo Power up day Leofinance is one of the most active communities on Hive and has been constantly experimenting with something or the other and have been building heavily on Hive. I have to also say that apart from Hive, Leofinance also brought some opportunities and people from other blockchain platforms as well. Every month 15th is celebrated as Leo Power Up Day. In order to be a part of it, people power up their LEO and show their support. Last month I…
Reasons why people continue to work after retirement Retirement is not the age to quit working. At least this is not the case for everyone. Some people decide to quit working after attaining a certain age and relax at home. But many people would like to do whatever is possible. People do some lightweight jobs. I have seen some people who are in the education sector become an advisor after they reach their retirement age. This is an honorable position and they only do guest…
Muterra as a metaverse game There are so many games emerging on the Hive blockchain. One of the biggest games on Hive is Splinterlands and it is a browser-based game. The genre of the games on Hive is slowly tilting and new opportunities are getting created on Hive. For the past year, we have been spending a lot of time and effort in building the Muterra game. Someone recently asked me if Muterra is a metaverse game or not. The answer is yes it is a metaverse game. Metaverse…
Safety in booking profits and making real world investments When more people are entering the crypto space, there are also people who keep saying that crypto investments are very bad and one should be very careful with that. I stand in the middle of these two ideologies. The reason is that there can be risks on both sides. I personally think that it is also not good to try something out because we know that there is a risk is also again a risk. With our money, we can never…
Scientists are soon planning to turn plastics to vanilla ice cream Today morning when I was viewing some videos on Youtube, I came across an interesting video that talked about worms that are capable of producing enzymes that can be used to decompose plastics. We all know how big is the plastic problem. We have been continuously creating plastics in the last few decades and it is a big problem because they don't decompose easily and they are not good for the environment.…
Do not panic if you lose money in trading Trading is a very common thing these days and many people either trade in crypto or trade in the regular stock market. The idea of trading is usually buying low and selling high or selling high and buying low. Trading is like a game and not all people grasp the concepts. Sometimes even though we are an expert, we miss and lose our money. We should always be ready for the bad times and if we end up losing the money, we shouldn't…
Splinterlands - 100k SPS stake reached I'm very happy and glad to share that I have successfully reached a stake value of 100k SPS in total. This has been a very long time due and I was continuously powering up all the SPS I received from the rewards. I have to say that this wasn't an easy journey for me because I was not playing the game regularly. I stopped playing the game long back and my staking rewards and buying SPS from the market was my only source. I did get a few…
Ways to get passive crypto income from Hive Passive income is the most expected thing everywhere. People who think about financial independence keep looking for passive income opportunities. Hive is a great platform where there are so many passive income opportunities available not just directly on the chain but also available on the earning opportunities in the sidechain as well. On the core layer of the blockchain, there are several earning opportunities available, and…
What is stopping us from being productive? There are several factors that usually can prevent us from being productive. I personally think that I'm productive enough but on days when I'm not productive enough, I have a low feeling and that is when I give it a thought to understand how I can increase my productivity. I have been listening to Atomic Habits audiobook for the second time. The author talks about Habits and that too-small habits can create wonders. When I read the…

There are many income streams available in the crypto world but they are also affected by many parameters. We will not be able to get…
Microblogging on Hive Microblogging is the next big thing on Hive. Today I wanted to take some time and write on this topic. I'm very excited to see many micro-blogging platforms emerging on Hive. Today Ecency has introduced its micro-blogging platform called Ecency Waves. I'm sure this is going to be the next trend and people who like microblogging platforms like Twitter in the web2 world would start liking these platforms in web3. This is a great start. Source…
Chat GPT becomes a burden for corporate companies Many companies have started exploring how they can improve their productivity with the help of GPT tools. There have been companies that have started using this as a positive tool and they promote using these tools by the employees of their company. But on the other hand, there are also companies that think this tool is a burden and they ban these tools in their office network. I recently received an email in my office…
Hive Engine nodes were attacked We all know that there are a bunch of idiots everywhere. When something is going well, there would always be some negative energy from different sides. From incidents like these, there are always frustrations and learning. For the past few days, the Hive Engine public nodes have been suffering from multiple attacks. I thought it would be better if I give an update on what is happening. Some of my friends asked me what was going on with Hive…
Need for an emergency fund Recently I had to think a lot about this topic. Whenever we plan our financials, we have to make sure that we have enough funds set aside as emergency funds. I was looking for some considerations to keep in mind if I quit my job. One of the biggest considerations was to try and understand if I had enough money as an emergency fund. This is very important because anything can happen in the future. Not only for us but also for our family members. In…
One more bull run for attaining financial freedom I was talking to some of my crypto friends who have been investing heavily in the current bear trend. I was very happy to tell them that I have been a part of both bull run as well as bear trends in the last 5 years and I was sharing my personal experiences with them. But after continuing the conversation with them, I came to know that they are way more experienced and all they need is just one more bull run to attain…
Learning from the Eagles Eagles are one of the most interesting species that live on this planet. We can learn so many motivational lessons from the Eagles. I recently happened to watch one of the videos that covered some motivation lesson from Eagles. In this article, I would like to share some of the things I learned from the motivation video. We might all think that Eagles are dangerous and even though it is true, we have so many things to learn from the other co-existing…
My GLX investment is slowly increasing I recently completed my goal of reaching 100k SPS. This was a long time due and I slowly and gradually reached this goal. The next target for me is GLX tokens. I would like to hold a decent stake in GLX before the game is launched. There are still 164 more days for the staking rewards. I did not follow what would happen after that but my wild guess is that the token circulation might get reduced increasing the value of GLX. I have been…
