HPUD - Powered up 4000 Hive today Today is a fresh start to another new month. I'm very happy to be a Hive member and I'm happy that I was able to participate in yet another Hive Power Up Day event. On the first of every month, we show our gratitude towards Hive by powering up Hive to our account. Hive is full of opportunities and in the last two months, the price of Hive is also pretty stable. We are all working hard here to create a high demand for Hive and increase the…
Splinterlands - Moving all my assets and preparing my account Splinterlands is one of the rewarding games on Hive. Even though there are so many other games popping up every now and then, Splinterlands is still solid and they come up with some concrete strategies to reward the players and investors. I have been a fan of Splinterlands for several years now. My splinterlands wallet was a bit unorganized. I was using two accounts to manage my tokens and assets. Today I decided…
My Publish0x July Statistics Publish0x is a blogging platform similar to Hive. We are able to make some crypto with the help of writing blogs on the Publish0x platform. Most of the articles published on Publish0x are all crypto-related articles and people like reading crypto-related articles and finance-related articles. I'm very glad to be writing there too. I had been regularly contributing to Hive, Publish0x, and Read Cash platforms. Not every platform is as rewarding as…
Can microblogging be the next big thing for Hive? Blogging was the initial feature on Hive and it is still one of the core features of Hive. Apart from Blogging, people are also exploring other opportunities Hive provides. Gaming is one of the biggest things on Hive ever since Hive became a platform with several capabilities. People have started building a lot of games on Hive and many investors are also willing to invest in such games and would like to make it fun and…
Trust issues with Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general Today I had a chance to talk to one of my friends about Blockchain and cryptocurrency. Onboarding friends into the crypto world is a very hard thing but it is definitely a possible one. I was successful in onboarding a few of my friends to the crypto world. The only problem is to make them understand this ecosystem and make them not leave. Some friends trust me so much and they let me take off their funds. Some…
Mole Miner - New and exciting updates making it more profitable and fun to play Mole Miner is a brand new game on Hive that was launched about a week back. Many people have started playing the game. We were keeping the rewards low for a week to do a pilot run and see if everything was going well. Now that the game code is getting more stabilized and the tokenomics is also doing good, we have increased the rewards for the players. The rewards have been increased by 50 times…
Playing Splinterlands after a long time In the last two days, I have started playing Splinterlands. The gameplay looks very different for someone who is playing after almost 2 years. I was keeping my account idle and mostly using the rental markets. The rewards from the rental markets were not very great and I thought I should start playing again. Apart from that I also thought it should be good to stay in touch with the game if I'm going to stay invested for a long time.…
Financial planning through portfolio management Portfolio management is one of the key features of financial planning. For investors and traders, the portfolio is their key thing and they have to keep the portfolio up to date. There are both good and bad practices in portfolio management. Our income and growth also depend on proper portfolio management. In order to achive financial objectives, one has to be very clear on what should be in the portfolio. Sometimes there can…
Frustrating when wrong crypto terminologies are used I have seen this in several places where people refer to Cryptocurrencies in general as Bitcoin. Today I came across one such experience and it was very painful to see that. I'm not sure if it is only me or even others who have observed this but when we have conversations with our friends or other non-crypto individuals, they usually refer to cryptocurrencies in general as Bitcoin. I used to think that it just takes a…
Newbies understanding NFTs The NFT concept is not something that is new. Only after we have Blockchain getting popular the concept of NFT is also getting popular. It can sometimes be hard for a newbie to understand the concept of NFTs. There are so many opportunities with NFTs and the easiest use case is to have Game assets as NFTs. There are innovative ideas brought to us by many project owners trying to make us invest. When people onboard someone new to the crypto world,…
Crypto trading over Stock market trading Many real-world traders have started focusing on doing crypto trading more than stock market trading. One of the biggest advantages that Crypto trading gives is that the market is available all the time and there are no official open hours for the market. But crypto trading also has lots of disadvantages too. The technical analysis people do for investing in a stock is a little different in the crypto world. People cannot implement…
Have you checked monetization on Twitter? I was wondering what great things Twitter can bring us. With the new name change and brand change, they should definitely have something in mind. Ads are one of the biggest revenue for many websites. Many sites rely on ads for their revenue and operations. Twitter is also dependent on Ad revenue. Today I came to know about the Monetization program that Twitter was offering. I also learned that it was introduced back in April 2023…
Dividend giving stocks About 5 years back I was very regular in doing stock market trading. I used to do daily trades and it was a great experience. I was doing this with my friend. He used to do a lot of research work and most of the time we were lucky to bag a decent profit. Later I lost touch with the friend and I was also very busy doing research work. I did hold some stocks but stopped doing regular trading. I should even say that I kept my demat account idle and did…
Participating in Leo Power Up day On the 15th of every month, it is the Leo Power Up day. This is the day in which people who support the Leofinance project power up their Leo tokens and show their support. I have been keeping this as a practice to accumulate my LEO tokens every month and wait for the 15th of every month to power up my account. All my Leo power stays on the `bala-leo` account which is my account dedicated to Leo token-related activities. I currently have a…
Right time to quit a 9 to 5 job There would be multiple instances for people to think about when would be the right time to quit their 9 to 5 job. People who have an Entrepreneur mindset will always think about quitting their job and doing something that would generate income for them. 9 to 5 job is a regular thing and almost 90 percent of people want a safe earning zone and would pick a 9 to 5 job which would be the best fit for them. Only some percentage of people think…
Environmental issues due to Bitcoin mining Mining is one of the most inevitable features of Bitcoin. Only after mining was introduced in Bitcoin, many other cryptocurrencies were introduced with a similar concept. Some cryptocurrencies are operating without a mining algorithm instead of with a fixed inflation or supply. Some cryptocurrencies have adopted the concept of Bitcoin and have been providing incentives to people who are mining with the help of powerful GPUs and CPUs…
Jailer - Another nice movie from Thalaivar Indian movies are mostly fun-filled movies and the story usually revolves around the Hero. Rajinikanth is one of the biggest Heros in the Indian film industry. Even though he is close to 70 years old, his movies are still very good and he adds a lot of effort in all his movies. Jailer is directed by Nelson and it is expected to be a Thriller and a Dark comedy movie. Most of Nelson's movies are similar where he will be focusing more…
Cryptocurrencies play an important role in our financial future The world is slowly getting digitalized. A few days back, I got a chance to travel to one of the most beautiful places in India and an important city in India. The town was in a very bad condition about 3 years back and now the city looks very good. Digitalization is also playing an important role in the City. One of the biggest changes in digitalization is the adoption. People from remote places already…
Bitcoin will not be down forever The last few months, it is not a very good time for Bitcoin. The entire crypto market is controlled by Bitcoin and it is not going to keep going down. Most of the time the market movement happens based on good and bad news around Bitcoin. If there is good news, the price goes up and if there is bad news the price goes down but unlikely the market had been more volatile than earlier. The price of Bitcoin would see an upward movement only if…
Loan helps in efficient use of time There are two types of people. One type would like to avoid loans and buy everything with only the money they own and the other type is the set of people who go for a loan to buy most of their assets. One of the biggest questions that can come to our mind is which one is the best approach. The perspective can differ from one person to another and there are both advantages as well as disadvantages in both the approach. In this article,…
Faster payments with cryptocurrencies In the last few days, I have been moving some of my funds in the real world for some needs. You can say a real-world investment. To do the real-world investment, I also had to move some cryptocurrencies as well. The most interesting thing for me was the faster payment option we get with cryptocurrencies. There are lots of procedures involved when we deal with FIAT but if we are dealing with cryptocurrencies it is quite possible to do…
Potential change in the APR of HBD good or bad? The hive ecosystem is full of so many opportunities. We have Hive and HBD as the native tokens and apart from that there are also several other tokens on Hive with the possibility of Hive Engine. With the help of these tokens, many opportunities are being explored and new games and applications are coming into existence. People looked at Hive and HBD as the most important asset in this ecosystem and especially HBD was better…
The 5 different cryptocurrencies in the crypto world When we talk about the crypto concepts there are so many things for people to explore and understand. Just the term cryptocurrency itself has so many things to learn. We all think that all cryptocurrencies are the same but there are some differences and there are different types of cryptocurrencies used by people. This article is going to explain some of the types of cryptocurrencies we have in the crypto world. There is…
Making blockchain concepts easier for everyone We talk a lot about crypto adoption. In order to increase crypto adoption or blockchain adoption, I personally think that the concepts should be easier for people to understand. I have read so many comments on Hive saying that many people found it hard to understand the blockchain concepts and only after years they are able to understand most of the concepts. Their focus is only on the earning part here. The technology not only…
Key Highlights on HBD in savings HBD is one of the most amazing things that the Hive ecosystem is currently having. During the early days, the value of HBD was not properly pegged to the value of USD, later measures were taken and HBD became a good stablecoin. In the last few bear markets, I have seen the value being very stable compared to other stablecoins. In this article, I would like to highlight some of the best features of HBD inside the Hive Ecosystem. **20% APR**…
Sinks for tokens should come from the outside When we are introducing a token in the market, most of the time we think of creating a use case or utility for the token. This is a very good thing. But at the same time, it is also important to create a sink for the token. Most people think that it is sufficient to create more use cases for the token for the tokenomics to sustain very well. But only if we keep increasing adoption and increasing the userbase, we will be able to…
Things to keep in mind while borrowing money from a friend There will be occasions when we might have to borrow money from others. I have had personal experiences in both lending money as well as borrowing money. I usually refrain from both activities after having a few bitter experiences. It requires an immense amount of discipline to manage the financial situation when we are both lending as well as borrowing money. I would personally recommend against borrowing money from…
My Publish0x August stats In the last two months, I have again started keeping track of my publish0x stats. I like this platform and I have been contributing to this platform for a few years now. Every time I write an article on Hive, I cross-post the same article to Publish0x for the readers on Publish0x to read it. Hive is an amazing platform to earn crypto by writing articles and playing games. Similarly, Publish0x is another platform that pays people crypto for writing…
