One such thing is the DEC burning event which is going to burn a lot of DEC. Many people have already started participating in that and I believe this is…
Bahanaga train accident - 260 dead and more than 1000 injured Today morning I woke up to see this very sad news. After I turned on the news, I was able to understand that this was something that could have been avoided completely. I don't think this is the first time such train accidents happen in India. I know it is unexpected but it is definitely possible to avoid such accidents. Especially with the help of modern technology, there are so many ways in which this can be…

Basic things to keep our discord accounts and servers safe Discord is one of the most used chatting platforms for Hive users. There are so many other gaming communities and projects that are dependent on Discord. One of the biggest problems we have with Discord is that there are several bad actors who can hack the system and do some stupid things. A few days back Leofinance discord server had a similar incident where one of the admin accounts was hacked and the hacker pushed…
Golden opportunity again for the investors The entire crypto market is not having a good trend right now. One of the biggest reason is the SEC issue with the Binance exchange. Even though Binance had clearly said that they would legally take this forward whatever the consequence, people panic about this situation and that is one of the biggest reasons for the fall in the price of some of the cryptocurrencies. As Binance is one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchange and as it…
Chat GPT as an alternative for google search Many people have already started moving in this direction where they have started using GPT tools as their alternative to standard Google search. In the last few decades, we have seen so many technological advancements and even Google search had competitors during the early days and I remember using Yahoo too during the early days. Only later Google became very popular because of their algorithm. GPT-4 is believed to be more…
How much is for emergency fund Every individual who is making some financial planning should also be thinking about having emergency funds. In countries like India which is a developing nation, having an emergency fund is mandatory because there will always be expenses that government cannot support. At least there are a few countries where government supports free education and free medicine. India is still developing to reach that state. Many people today understand the…

Crypto Market - Catching the falling knife or an opportunity for DCA The crypto market is making me feel that I'm just catching a falling knife. During the previous bull run the price of Hive was over 1.5 $ for a very long time. That was when I really wanted to invest but the price of Hive was very high to invest. I did invest around 2000 $ back then on SPS and received only 2000 SPS but today I have close to 100k SPS and my SPS value is not even 1600 dollars. This article…
Staying safe with Binance and other exchanges I'm not sure how many people have been following the Binance Vs SEC news. I only read about the initial things and later I couldn't keep myself updated. But this incident is a big eye-opener for sure. I had many tokens on Binance and most of the tokens were locked for giving me some passive income. There were no other platforms that gave me any returns on some of the coins. I decided to keep my coins on Binance. After the recent…
Movie Review - Avatar: The Way of Water I know I might be a little late to write this review but just a few minutes back we completed watching Avatar : The Way of Water. I watched the first part about 13 or 14 years back with friends. I don't remember the exact story of the movie. I did not even try to understand what the movie was all about. I did not have the maturity to understand the story. In order to watch the second part, I watched the first part again to get a hang…
Banks will be replaced by exchanges in the coming years Cryptocurrency is going to be the future of payments and It is high time we start thinking about having more cryptocurrency exchanges than banks. I understand that we have serious sentiments about Banks but there is a high possibility that in the coming years slowly the crypto exchanges would start taking over banks and maybe we might as well reach a point where banks would be completely replaced by crypto exchanges.…

They might think that they don't have to take this income to their real-world unless there is a dire need which in most cases can be true. The main income that they get from their primary job can mostly take care of their real-world income needs. In such cases, people might think that having emergency funds on…

Making use of this bear market It is very common to see less activity during the bear market. Many communities would lose their members and even many Play2Earn games would see less number of players staying active during the bear market. This is very common. I have seen this several times in the last few years. There will be a time again when everything suddenly starts pumping and every other coin will reach a great value. That is when we usually think that we should have…

The email said that the RBI is doing a Pilot of CBDC with the help of ICICI Bank. I was so curious to go and explore more about this. I still have not created my wallet and explored this. I personally thought that this was a great step towards digitalization and accepting blockchain technology. I think this is very good news but there…
Prepare your tomorrow with today's cash and not tomorrow's cash Financial planning is very important. We cannot keep spending all the money we earn and dream to have a beautiful life in the future. Some countries don't believe in the concept of savings and they spend the money then and there. But we have to have some financial discipline to be able to cover the expenses of both us as well as the family. If we have kids our financial needs are also unpredictable. All the…
Time for Dollar Cost Averaging Dollar Cost Averaging is a very common term among investors and long-term traders. A bear market is the right time to do DCA but clever investors don't wait for the peak bear market to hit and they keep buying a coin whenever they have the opportunity. This way the coin would be bought both during the good times as well as bad times and the purchase would end up fruitful when the market is really good. A slight increase in the price would make…
Hard to have real money being traded in games Some of the popular games on Steam and other gaming platform have restricted people from trading in-game items with real money. They allow people to purchase assets with real money but they don't allow people to purchase anything from other players or sell something to other players. There used to be a time when someone can purchase on behalf of another player and send the assets to the other players. I have seen players doing it…
Personal AI assistant for every individual A few days back I remembered this movie called Bicentennial Man. This movie used to be something amazing for me during my childhood. When I was watching movies at a young age, this movie did disturb me a lot. I used to wonder that we might move towards something like this in the future. I did not expect Robots to do our daily work too soon. It can take a few more decades but I was thinking in a different perspective. We have machine…
Balancing income and expenses Recently I have been thinking a lot about this topic. I personally think that growing our financial status is based on how we handle our income and expenses and especially it is based on how we balance it out. There is a high chance that we might end up spending a lot more than what we earn and there is also a possibility that we end up becoming stingy and not spending enough. One wise person told me that we should keep a balance between income…
BCH is on a powerful surge Not less than a week ago the price of BCH was close to 100$ per coin but today the price has hit over 300$ per coin which is a huge surge. I was checking my portfolio and discovered that the BCH holdings increased by 3 times already. I always wanted to hold close to 5 BCH. Initially, my goal was to hold 1 full BCH but then it increased from 1 to 5 now. I guess having 5 BCH is a pretty decent one. When Noise Cash and Read Cash were at its peak, I…
