AI Stocks: Will The Early Birds Get The Worms Or Will The Late Bloomers Escape The Trap
Remember that Ad that is always playing on TV with the coolest catch phrase and a persuading message, like how Bitcoin was when it first hit the surface.
Like that Black Friday Sugar rush when everyone literally wants in on the same thing or the huge crowd of gamers outside a shop waiting to get their hands on the new Tom Clancy's Call of Duty game.
The AI wave is currently causing such exciting disruption right now and the potential seems limitless like Mustafa to Simba -- everything the light touches is our kingdom limitless.
No doubt the emergence of AI [Artificial Intelligence] has been dubbed as a groundbreaking ripple in the fabric of space and time continuum--life as you know it.
Generative AI text based applications making term papers, position papers, thesis and research materials much easier to accomplish...do people even use search engines anymore?!. Google used to be the friendly neighborhood superhero back in the days, but it feels like there are more preferred neighborhood superheros now, the most obvious being ChatGPT (Google Bard and Bing still playing catch up, with Meta's LLAMA and DALL-E somewhere in between).
Generative AI imaging applications simulating DSLR High Definition realistic photographs (not its finest hour -- talking about the few pixel displacement glitches, but close to perfection) and photo-realistic paintings. To an untrained eye it would be difficult to detect an original Van Gogh masterpiece with a prompt engineered Midjourney or Leonard Ai generated painting, that's probably too far into the past....let's just say it would probably be difficult to differentiate a Waveloop [Instagram Patreon Artist] original painting from a generative AI image.
I mean that's super cool right, ehh not so much as litigating wars may not be so far from it's castle draw bridge. This of which has registered countless causes of records through the internet of things.
This is just the surface, suppose we go a little forward -- infusion of Transcendental AI systems into Finance and HealthCare.
You got yourself a two sided mirror, suppose we are open minded -- self developed financial system making the already cashless policy even much more digital (no harm there right) and infusion of LLM (Large learning Model) applications to perform medical procedures and investigations (no harm there too right).
Cyber Security, infusion of Cosmic AI systems with CCTVs (am guessing no harm there too right)...can you feel the resistance building up.
Warfare; self driven jet fighters, Apache Helicopters, Cybernetic Drones and Genetic modified Special Ops infused with Cosmic AI systems...it's starting to feel like huge mushroom clouds going off now right?!
Don't know about you, but if you do think about it, it's going to be an uproar of chaos -- i mean the expert research writers, copywriters, content writers, photographers, artists and graph designers alike would be out in packs looking to make a hurting.
A drove of activists would cry privacy breach, corporate espionage would be much more fire blazing and less stealthy, wire transfers automating to Cayman Island accounts without traces, a huge buck of taxpayers money going into funding of advanced weapon research (like we need more Hiroshima) creating more divides than we already are. LLM applications running off the record biological repulsive diseases or viruses test trials.
All of these would build up to resistance giving birth to restrictions, like the whole SEC $NVDA ban of H200 Chips sales to China. It's going to be an entirely different red light district downtown when the bears go into hibernation, those bulls will give no care about the red cape Matador and his Mariachi taps.
Am a no tarot card reader or psyche but it is what it is, this envisaged monumental climb is going to have a lot of stiff cliffs.
But then again if we are to play Alice through the looking glass it's not all that bad...the opera would take a different turn.
Let's bunny rabbit hole into the idea of Transcendental AI systems infused into a Frontline healthcare clerking processes and positive patient experience management it could reduce long waiting hours, that's quite a carrot right!
A little more yellow brick road down the healthcare corridor -- improved advanced administration of medical procedures and investigation with an infant fed Cosmic AI system powered FAQ consultation looped to routed channels when personal application query unique interactions requiring uniquely acquired feedback
Mirroring the impacts of a Cosmic AI System infused into warfare is going to be more of a singing in the showers versus crying in the toilets, being that it would further stretch the borders of the survival of the fittest-a dog eat dog dogma. Living developing Countries in the dust and possible cameos of dictatorship in the tapestry.
At the end of the day it boils down to quick adaption to the enclosing triggers alignment with risk tolerance in ratio of greed to analytical insightfulness of the futuristic trend projection, which in this case plays out a scenario of a 100:1 probability chance of the predictions meeting up with the FY-infinite Years EPS call actuals.
So guess am just going to close with...What's your Pick Early Birds getting the worms or Late Bloomers escaping the trap, which would stand the taste of time.
P.S ~ have you read the AI disruptive playbook?!
Dumb Money
So yup it is the weekend, having time to myself and catching up on some movies, one of which is titled *dumb money*.
Guess y'all heard awhile back about the total onslaught of the $GME rise amidst the battle with Citadel Securities and Robinhood. This movie kind of like gave it a more deeper mural paint to wall depiction.
But that's not what really fascinating about this movie (well in my opinion), but before i talk about that...*let me just say well this movie would have be more apt if they didn't misappropriate the cryptocurrency culture and based of a traditional Wall Street Fiat Money Storyline.*
I mean there were like lots of cameo appearances suggesting the whole $DGE - Elon Musk Movement imprinted into the main character's (Keith Gill) storyline. If you did follow the Reddit upvotes back in the days, we all know he was a financial analyst (but i don't believe he was really huge into YouTube). A large space of his wardrobe fittings were literally rhinestone-d with a cat [$DGE's Dog Mascot].
The huge following thing well that's was ok, but all of that Diamond Fingers and HODL diction is (or was) originally built from the crypto-DeFi community.
Getting back to the fascinating thing about the movie tolls a lot towards my already resolve-resistance towards building a following around a (or any financial advisor) when it comes to stock investing or trading.
Think about it, if you following stocks you already know $GME (GameStop) in actual sense doesn't really rap a nice spreadsheet of a deeply impacting utility as it relates to ESG Factors (Economic, Social and Governance). I feel going all ironclad-battlecry horse riding the whole nine yards was just dumb, ass move and those who rained in the gains just had a donkey luck which was hugely built on the *esprit um* of clawing down wall streets to its kneels.
I don't know how you like to invest, but how i like to invest is never putting out more money that you can afford to lose (*which was apparently was thrown into the wind in the movie*). So not a big fan of following financial analysts (advisors) on every whimp, I don't do copy strategy trading patterns, that's how the hedge fundsters and crypto whales control the pump and dump motions of the market -- I mean i do read up a few snippets from the Motley Fool, MSN Money and Y! Finance to get a feel of the new promising penny stock on the block, bookmark to a watchlist and just see it's performance over a period of time.
Plus retail based stocks like Home Depot [$HD], Best Buy [$BBY], Costco and others are very volatile -- those CPIs (Consumer Price Index) and Inflation drive ripple effect is a pounding.
My favorite picks are more of Pharma Stocks, and currently pulling some watch listing on $TTWO (if you ever had one of those GTA Gaming Experiences and Red Dead Redemption, you would probably know why). And off course DeFi to the moon...
How do you like to grow your money?!
Happy Weekend, have a good one...Hope you see the movie too. Lots of lessions to be learned (I guess)
It's been an exasperating week, I believe i deserve some relaxing weekend to reboot. Guess it's gone be a marathon through some movies and series for me.
What you all planning for your weekend though...
Oh wait, anyone tried out work.cash it's supposedly a video PPA Ad network with a minimum PPV cycle of 24 ¢ a day. Seen from one of these Russian Ad networks so there's a high possibility payout would be hooked to Payeer and less of a Blockchain Token Coin...yet to have a deep peep into it though
My Day ~ How Is Yours
On every other weekday it would be the quiet of the night slowing merging into the chirping sounds of the honking traffic and foot stampedes of the early hour commutes.
Today's curtain opens steamed up smokes bottled for long hitting the train tracks, people so pissed off with the downturn of the sparring economy.
Invisible placards mirroring unspoke words of dissatisfaction with the state of things, a plague of rats in wheels mud racing in a pursuit of happiness stuck within 4 shifts of jobs, hoping to build a better six packed abdomen for when the the next bill jabs back.
The injustice in the tapestry like a gavel to a blind law system, enthronement now largely by selection, and the people's opinions are just ink to a sticky note of to dos that are never peeled off the notice boards along with a heat map of pending and ongoing projections.
Exchanges monopolized to feed the elites clearly living on cloud nine, while the nine to fivers getting beat down with the reality of it. Constantly getting gaslighted with hikes in pump prices, motorists making SMEs of every opportunity and E-commerce doubling the effects.
Sit-downs with the powers that be just a spitting battle brawl of weighted blank promises brewing back a cauldron of unequally scaled milestones completions. In another two cycles the episodes reels back to muffled banters and chants of displeasure.
Water gates of emotions electrified with pacifiers to the month, another tear drop into an ocean of unresolved chaos weaned into another cycle of same blank promises.
How is your day?!
All this talk about CashRain got me thinking about Noise.Cash...Whatever Happened to Noise.Cash?! And is it just me or does CashRain look more and more like EthRatio?! Anybody on here currently exploring EthRatio and if yes, care to share ... It's a labyrinth of misinformation over on X, can catch a hint of it's utility on there just a lot of promotion and not a lot of information
The Re-Entry or Something
Hello fellow readers old and new...it's been an aeon of years since i have been on this multiverse.
Was silverblading through the milky way (orbit) when i rediscovered this planet.
Life's been kicking, the playing parks less crowdy and the working cubicles buzzing more loudly than ever with keyboard clicks.
Would you still say Defi is the bedrock for personal finance?! Since it's taking quite a tumble down the hill and struggling to get back to it's all time high...all of these events kick-starting from when the FEDs clapped back on $XRP ain't never seen Bitcoin back on that $40k+ mount, and $ADA (Cardano) hitting a dollar earmark and falling back down to 39¢.
And with all of the generative AI modules popping from every corner of Silicon valley seems the traditional banking halls and stock markets are ringing in the wins again.
Well if you reading this, would like to know what you think?! What's your best pick for your personal finance, Defi or Traditional Banking (Stocks).
Bulk And Cut Or Just Bulk
Weight loss tends to be a very heated discussion transcending all times both past, present and definitely will still be echoing for generations to come. And on the other hand, weight gain is another anchor script to a non ending sit com.
They say money is the root of all evil, well if the devil had them bands stacked he probably would have bought himself a one-way trip off hell (🎶 bands would make her dance, bands would make her dance, all these cheeks popping aye🎶...if you know, you know laughs).
I feel it's the extreme love of money that plays devil's advocate to most of us, planting intoxicating emotions and intentions, leading to poor judgement and decisions. This tends to happen alot when it comes to finance.
When it comes to getting a perfectly sculpted body figure, we tend to ask ourselves do we bulk first then cut or bulk and cut instantaneously. It all boils down to the strategy that works best for you--that takes you faster to your body goals.
Would have said the same plays centre stage for your finance, but we all know the game of finance is always a constantly changing labyrinth. And if you not always on the look out you miss it completely.
So how does your scale weigh? Does it weigh sh!tcoins or does it weigh value backed with potential growth?
Bitcoin is in an 80/20 indication valued as a sh!tcoin.
Bitcoin is more or less like a celebrated talented athlete getting a tone of endorsement during his (or her) prime, being trolled by big pockets and institutions causing a pull and push effect to shoot start a climb by every shorts options put into action.
Ahoy ye pirates, it's a fools gold though none the less, i for one still trying to get more of what this treasure chest has to offer.
Ethereum is a whole other bank of its own, and definitely not a sh!tcoin, but i think of it more of the technological blue print that paved the way for other altcoins and hard forks. In as much as it was the goal of Ethereum to create an interoperative link between every blockchain in the crypto space and failed, it's still a coin with great value. But to what height that value stretches to, i can't clearly say. Being that Ethereum's Foster Kids Cardano and Polkadot already speeding through miles and exchanging batons to see the goals of Ethereum which is much theirs now achieved.
With new hard fork combinators and RC-ed 10 and RC-ed 20's tokens emerging every second, a tone load of sh!tcoins are making their own drops into the already densed saturated decentralized ecosystem.
The challenge now is, too much of these sh!tcoins are taking up most of the spaces, thus making it difficult for people to easily navigate their way to coins with value.
Even with such cluster, you had think that's all there is to it. But thanks to Elon Musk meme coins have become a thing now. If you thought for one tiny itty-bitty second sh!tcoins was bad, well get a loud of meme coins laughs.
Top of the memecoin pyramid, Dogecoin would definitely be taking the Neil Armstrong throttle shot to the moon on that one.
Meme coins are like weight loss goals, you shred a good amount of pounds and before you know it, you back at where you started or some extra pounds more. So i guess they will probably do more harm than good to the tweet-monitoring economic news analog analytic traders looking to get a quick win off a gamble of sheer luck and less control.
...that's risky, it's kind of like putting your funds into a diversified mutual funds handled by an accountant (where you have no control of whatsover to maximize your profit margins or minimize your losses) with a 50-50% guarantee of accruing an ROI of any sort.
So what's a bulk and what's a cut?
This is pretty much gym bud lingo, if you take creatine, whey protein shakes or renew your gym subscription on the regular you will probably have an idea of it.
But for the sake of this...i'm just going to toss the mats, dumbbells and treadmills to the back and just run on numbers.
Ok so let's get married...
In this context bulking and cutting instanteously mirrors financial traders and not investors. Every investor is a trader, but not every trader is an investor. Bulking and cutting is somewhat of a trader's strategy to a trade on a chart. Most usually rolling on the 4 hours chart and some just go intraday trading. Put a buy option into action hoping to call a short profit when it reaches a specific height, with reaching that height they exit the market and collect their initial cap including the profit margin and looks for the next trade.
It's a nice trade only if you are a seasoned old timer on the charts having more knowledge of both the technical indicators (Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, Bollingers, SMA or Parabolic SARs) and fundamental analysis.
But we all know when the non farm payroll season hits the market is on top speed and highly volatile, it can make or break you. And when the consumer index is high in ratio to high unexpected predictions of unemployment that's another volatile moment. And you also have the financial advisor (quack quack quack, but not all of them are ducks, their a few good ones who know their way around the charts) with huge follows tagging entry and exit points.
The aforementioned three scenarios affects the market, when technical indicators and fundamental analysis battle in this case, fundamental analysis gets the win. So no matter how good you are in retrospect to understanding the technical indicators you could run at a loss and a huge loss in a very volatile market.
Again that's more risk and no control, it pretty much looks like a big gamble to me. Buck buck buck, buck buck buck, buck buck buck, cutting your losses early doesn't make you a chicken, it makes your loss less heavy.
The early bird eats the worm. Success is when opportunity meets preparedness. Just bulking is going the whole nine yards, hodling you coins for the long run. The only difference between hodling and the diversify your funds into mutual funds, pray and wait strategy is that with hodling you have more control of your money. And the charts are more in your face as per back in the days were you relied more on your fund manager or accountant debrief you on the current market cap, stock gains, potential blue chip stocks and statement.
You could say bulking is not just about hodling, it's also putting your crypto coins into yield farming liquidity pools to harvest your returns, but if the promised APY % is too good to be true, then run off the carpet before your coins get rug pulled.
Collateralizing your crypto coins as credit score for a loan is also another way to bulking.
You could also say staking up a few coins for pool and minted block rewards is another way to add more abs to your vault.
I for one think just bulking is the best strategy, but if bulking and cutting is what works for you then you do that.
Uh, and don't forget to do your own research though and as a rule of thumbs always put in money you are comfortable with losing, in case loss happens you don't end up in some ER breathing off some oxygen machine.
So how do you spot the ocean and not the fish?
Forget about the total trading volumes, forget about the 24 hours circulating supply it's just bait, forget the position it holds on the chart, focus your net more on it's worth in terms of its value, can it's use case hold a 10 Pound whale, can you see it's utility as something with growing potential and mass adoption?
I leave you in the words of Robert Kiyosaki - Predicting the market is not the key to riches, being prepared for whichever direction it goes is.
Do You Work For Money Or Does Your Money work For you
Mind piercing right?...
Totally had the same expression when i came across this caption on my twitter timeline.
With the 50% income you get from a four wall-ed desk job or a corner office is it really much to go by--i mean there are a couple of people who do multiple jobs just to get by the month to afford a decent meal, and in some cases to fix their credit score as to be eligible for a loan. Can you see the visual cycle? It's kind of like a mouse (or hamster) looking to escape his cage, even with the wheel moving, the mouse is still stuck at the very beginning.
That's what Robert Kiyosaki terms as been stuck at a spot on the rat race...that's no fun, and you don't want to be stuck there.
There were times when people would say you can't make excuses, we got the same 24 hours. And i be so mad like, although true but everybody doesn't have the same opportunities.
But again that's another excuse, if opportunity doesn't come to you, make one. Probably easier said than done, but it is what it is.
A zoom into the economy, the frame is more fixed on people who work for money--even from the pulpit of the four walls of a classroom the reoccurring and overemphasized preach always revolve around get good grades, get a job and get good benefits. And on the other hand, there are no Kodak moments with parents or teachers when you give them a different picture, to be precise own your start up or business.
However, the notion surrounding the fight against been self-empowered (or self-reliant) is slowly eroding away. Still the idea feels strange to a lot of the Gen-Z embryos.
Don't get it twisted though, i'm not all in to the idea that working for someone is wrong--i mean i'm not completely saying working for someone is bad. But i'm just on the hammer nailing into the idea that working for someone shouldn't necessarily limit your passion to pursue your own dreams.
Working for someone should be the foundation and should not be your end game--working for someone should be the starting point upon which you save up or accrue your start up initial capital to lift your dreams from the ground.
...however, this view tends to be foreign to a lot of the Gen-Z population. Most are more comfortable with just sitting at a desk all day working the keyboards and putting finishing touches to paperworks.
Do you fall into this category of people? If you do, can you honestly say you happily look forward to the next morning rushing out of bed to work? Or would you rather prefer spending less time at work, more time freedom to yourself, and more bonding if a spouse and children are in the picture.
I want to believe you would rather want to have control of your finances, and thus using that control to improve your financial stability and security.
Having a 50% income could mirror the same impact of the bleeding charts that the crypto market experienced last week, as a result of the speculation of the MAN known more of as the US President Joe Bidden about his plans to tax capital gains.
However, it seems the tides have taken a softer squeeze, hence the whales are coming back into the oceans, rather than running from it--wish the same could be said for Turkey right now.
Having a 50% income is like having your financial advisor telling you owning a big house of residence is an asset that would give you more tax breaks. Even so it's not all gains, you still taking huge sums of Mullah from your pocket to fix up and renovate. That's like spending $1,000 for a fixer-up just to save $35 or there about. That's a whole other algebra on its own, OMG help me find {dy}/{dx}. It logically doesn't make much of a sense in this regard if you know what i mean.
On the other hand, if you had blocks of apartment homes leased out, that's your money truly working for you. It gets even more rosy, when you got a good credit score and already have a proof of having managed other blocks of apartment--loan application gets speedy approval like ASAP-real quick quill signed approval. That's using good debt to create cash flow and passive income, and wait for it...you end up spending no dime but you get all the rewards it comes with.
Savings is bronze, investment is Sapphire but cash flow and passive income is gold. If in the war room thinking up a strategy for battle, a better chance of winning is going with cash flow and passive income formation.
Portfolio income--Dow Jones, S&P 500 and NASDAQ index funds are good vehicles for portfolio incomes, but it seems cryptocurrencies are having more champagne pops at the finish lines. But the downside is that you don't have much handle on the steering wheels, as a result of the volatility as per passive income you have more handle of it.
...and for a closure.
Have you heard about buying tax lieu from auctions?
Does your money go out to recruit more money for you? Well if not, it's not too late. Like Martin Luther Jr would say...
Information Is Your Friend, Embrace It
Life is a constantly spinning orb with an unknown stop spot, and as such obsolete ideas and thoughts are being replaced with more modern information.
Hence the need to always stay informed with the trends and times. Catching up with the times gives you better leverage and advantage than your peers who are uninformed. Information keeps you one step ahead of the crowd.
Information is the most important asset you can bring to your personal finance. Same can be said for your business, career and investments (Fiats or Crypto).
When you are informed you have better chances of success in every area of your life--you have better mastery of your day to day activities as it relates to your business, career, profession, finances and investments.
Information gets you equipped with insights and leverage gives you better control of your personal finances.
It's easy to spot a big whale in the ocean, but it's difficult to spot those little blue chip piranhas that could likely bite through the resistance on the charts to a higher wave.
Oh my God, i wish i had better knowledge back then when Bitcoin just springed up, i would have had a tone load of 6 digit fiat profits. And i bet a lot of people still have similar thoughts as mine.
Well the good news is that with the expansion of the blockchain and new token ICO-ing everyday, it's inevitable for more cryptocurrency to follow in the same footsteps.
So how do you spot the next big whale?
Like me, i guess you're also looking for the next token that will go explosive on the charts?
That been said, i guess the next question is what are those important or key information we need to trigger our better choices of crypto to buy.
****Price Is Pivotal****
A crucial element to keep at heart when scanning for the next whale is the price of the token. For an average investor who doesn't have a great deal of money to put into the cryptocurrency eco-decentralized space, low-priced currencies may offer the best bang for your wallet.
Let's imagine you bought a tone load of a crypto token for less fiat currency, and on your exit it's fiat value had tripled it's initial face value. That will definitely be spot on good ROI right--let's suppose back then when $BCH was at a dollar per unit, you bought a thousand dollar worth of it; at today's prices that money could probably buy you an early retirement and a resort on some carribean island oceanfront holiday rental apartment. The ability to diversify with low-priced coins should not be overlooked.
The white paper of the cryptocurrency
Profit aside, does the cryptocurrency identify with a social problem, better still does it play well with a practical real life application and does it have the potential to solve a real life simulation revolving around a social cause.
Let's just forget for a second that Bitcoin, it's fork derivatives, altcoins and stable coins offer us a better investment (offen due to volatility) than our local traditional banks, what else do you believe your favorite green coins offer? Do they offer outstanding use cases or utility? Does it help in improving the blockchain technology, smart contracts scaling and blockchain operability?
If you look back as at when Bitcoin came around its purpose then was that it offered leverage to the early investors to hedge their funds, and it's still the same vehicle that sped it to the height it's currently at and is still heading to.
In my opinion (i stand to be corrected) was basically a kick back to create a wallstreet version probably based off from political struggle to stay in competition with its Asian partners. However, the most visible reason was probably to boost scaling, utility and operability flaws in the then blockchain development phrase. Which i think $DOT has a better reach to the finishing line at the moment and $ADA fast on its tail.
When investing in any cryptocurrency it is crucial to identify the core features of a project that differentiate it from every other coins.
Make sure the cryptocurrency or token has an actual use case. If it’s just as a store of value, Bitcoin, $TRX, $DOGE and $BCH tend to do that well and there are unlimited other coins (sh!t coins) that do the same thing. The more generic a token’s use case is, the less likely its going to stay relevant and succeed in the near future.
With that in mind...
Make sure the use case is logical. A coin can have unique use cases, but not everything has to be decentralized and be done on the blockchain. I do tend to feel like most of the third generation coins and newly established ICO-ed outfits have more of generic use cases rather than unique and pivotal use cases, a lot of such use social media and cloud mining as their fronts.
Trying to find blue chipped coins deemed worthy for mass adoption in the future requires digging deep and going through their white papers, profit index aside does the purpose excite you, does it speak to you, is it something that resonates with you? If it does none of the aforementioned purpose ditch it.
The difference between a gambler and an investor is that gamblers just want to renovate and flip (or just want to short a token for the gains and make entries again when it dips), while investors educate themselves about their coin of choice--they go in for the long ride, mind you this is not a case of diversifying your portfolio, pray and hold for the long term. Investors are in it more for the cash flow and passive income.
When push comes to shove or when sh!t hits the fan and the bulls refuse to dance with you, can you sit with the bears? Bearing in mind the crypto coin of your choice, would you have the patience to ride out the storm with it?
Does it have a road map outlining key development phrases.
Another key element you should most definitely take a look into is, does the coin have a well structured road map designed with its development phrases. And has the coin been able to fully achieve it's previous stages as stated?
****Supply is a factor****
Most cryptocurrencies have a pre-determined maximum supply. When that maximum is reached, typically through mining efforts, no new tokens will be produced.
If interest maintains while the supply is fixed, the price could go up. Be sure to consider the total supply and the current circulation of any cryptocurrency before you invest.
****Price and volume****
Up-to-date and real time information about cryptocurrency trading is easily available online. Cryptocurrencies with constantly increasing volumes and price gains have better prospects for massive adoption. Of course, there is no guarantee that this momentum will maintain, but it is nonetheless a useful way of seeing which cryptocurrencies have the most investor's interest for the time being.
However, take to mind that investing in cryptocurrencies is risky, and you have to do your own thorough research before picking your piranha (laughs) i mean your blue chip coin. And above all, only invest money you can afford to lose.
There are also better ways to use your information as leverage, these could be in the tune of generating more passive income and cash flow through mining, however mining (proof of work) is gradually becoming obsolete and been replaced with proof of stake
Staking seems to have gained more adoption as it presents easier understanding of its working mechanics and doesn't require the use of heavy machines and it evades the problems of computer overheating.
I believe the concept of staking is pretty much explanatory, well for the case of those who have little or no idea about staking let me expand on it. As traditional banking offers fixed deposits where investors are rewarded interest as per a specified period like for example 30 days, 180 days or 364 days, same is experienced with crypto staking. But the underlining difference is that it provides higher APY % returns and has more flexibility with the safe lock period. And another awesome feature about staking is that even with your coins locked into a specified period you can still withdraw and it won't affect you getting the minted block rewards--the only downside is that the volume of the rewards will be reduced.
However when it comes to higher APY % return offers, yield farming takes the cake. Yield farming has a lot of similarities with staking but has its distinctive features.
Have you traded forex, ETFs or stocks before? Yield farming sorta have the same features with the above mentioned. With yield farming you invest a cryptocurrency pair, for the course of this illustration let's assume you invest $BCH/$BNB for a safe lock period you accrue price gain for one cryptocurrency over the other when you liquidate your pool.
Keep educating yourself, keep learning and keep improving your leverage.
New Mistakes Are The Best Mistakes
Everyday life continues to throw lessons at you till you get the point, but most times the already imprinted fear of making mistakes draws the curtain to an opportunity to learn something new and in most cases valuable.
Change they say is constant, and with change comes new challenges and without embracing it, you can't feel the joy with which it brings.
Mistakes often redirect you to beautiful destinations and totally redirects your focus on how things are rather than how things out to be.
We are bound to make mistakes everyday, so he who is scared of making mistakes is just content with existing, and that my friend is no life.
A life without an adventure is no fun, great things never came from being too comfortable.
It's easy to choose the safe and comfortable option, filled with less emotional reaction to loss of money or the feel of shame. In as much as it looks sweet in disguise, that won't mask the truth and the reality of things--your bills, expenses, obligations, dreams, goals and aspirations doesn't afford you such luxury of comfort.
Schools teaches you that mistakes makes you a failure, but life is a whole different ball game entirely. You can't apply school rules to life, that's a different question mark entirely which is always demanding you put your best foot forward at all times.
A new direction in life requires change, and a redirection requires having a positive attitude towards the way you react to making mistakes.
****Change the way you react to your fear of making mistakes****
Often times when we make mistakes we tend to want to give up and leave the idea behind us. Rather than do that, channel your mistakes into something positive, see it as an opportunity to learn something new. You are bound to have a better handle of things when you encounter such situations again.
****Enjoy the process****
Success is a long path filled with hurdles and difficulties which come in different forms. Every stage of your life demands the David in you to arise, however success is a slow process and it's not a smooth ride either. Love yourself enough to understand that you can't be successful without making mistakes, don't be hard on yourself.
****Celebrate the small victories****
Often times we never see and appreciate the small victories that we achieve because our focus is on something bigger and probably more visible as a totem to remember. The chances that give emphatic celebration to every single struggle and failure you face are slim to none, we tend to only (or mostly) celebrate the big wins. Most of us tend to focus too much on the big wins, always remember that every small victory is a step leading to your goals.
Celebrating your small victories will motivate and inspire you to keep going.
Many of us do that. Remember, every small victory is a step leading to your big goals. Break your large goal(s) into smaller chunks so that they’re less overwhelming. Every time you accomplish one of those small goals, act as if you just achieved your big goal.
****Understand why you’re afraid****
Fear tends to develop from the negative things that accompany failure
We already determined that your fear actually comes from the negative things that accompany failure. It could be fear of losing a secure job, getting embarrassed or losing money. All of these are all real and understandable fears.
Whenever faced with a new opportunity, ask yourself what’s the worst that could happen and also ask yourself what’s the BEST thing that could happen. How will you feel once that goal is reached? Do the benefits of going after your dreams outweigh the negatives? Once you understand why you’re afraid, you can work around that fear and come up with a solution. Know your FEAR and understand your WHY, let your why be bigger than fear, success isn't the absence of failure but it's the presence of the courage and excitement to keep going.
****Face your fears head on****
Build a positive attitude to say yes to the opportunities that frighten you most, challenges often times bring out the hidden gems inside of you. Take chances and break out of your comfort zone. Facing your challenges heads on will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses, and thus making you improve on your weak spots.
Feel more comfortable about making changes in your life, care less about what others think of you, grow as a person, and learn more than you ever possibly could in a book. Just start doing things! Remember that the more you fail, the more you succeed.
Failure will happen no matter what but how you react to it says a lot about you as a person and where you’re headed in life. You basically have two options: The fear can either hold you back from even trying to do those scary things or it can propel you forward. We hope you choose to embrace fear, let it ignite your fire, and empower you to make changes in your life. Honestly, what’s scarier? Taking a risk or staying where you’re at forever? Brave soldiers have a better chance to victory when the own their mistakes and learn from them.
****Use emotional agility skills****
Emotional agility keeps you from indecisiveness when the mind is in turmoil. First, label your feelings. Then, confess them out loud to help diffuse them. Finally, accept reality and act on your values.
Identify your five most important values related to decision-making in a crisis. Then ask yourself how each of those is relevant to the important choices you face.
****Fear of imperfection****
Perfection is a myth the sooner you understand this fact the easier it will be to move on. Never be ashamed of making mistakes, it all part of life's process. Kill your fears of imperfection and activate your personal growth and improvement. Embrace your imperfection, it often leads to something beautiful and mind blowing discovery of yourself.
Life will keep throwing darts at you, you could either stand still and continue to bleed or learn from it and grow.
BitClout ~ The New Kid On The Block
New technologies often don't unveil its full potentials when they first emerge. This very much could be the reflection BitClout mirrors at a first glance.
Bitclout from a vantage point of view reels in imitations of a social media platform, not just your regular old social media but one which is owned collectively by its audience and its creators.
However, on a closer glance it takes on a different look, as it attempts to redefine a new category of product—the creator coin.
You could say BitClout is a way better social network or not, but one of its attractive features is it's novelty relationship in bringing together blockchain technology and token economics.
And as such has attracted the passionate attention of creators, artists, investors and technologists, who have contributed and are still contributing to its current success.
But the fast and widespread attention it is garnering as the future of social networking may well be obscuring the staying power of something far more significant.
Hmm, i wonder?
Could it be creativity with content? Or could it just be a case of originality, Or dare i say it a case of plagiarism?
It has a creator coin, and the creator coin could someday become one of the most important use cases of blockchain technology.
Being the most important use cases as of blockchain technology? Hmm, that has a lot of hovering clouds of uncertainty around it, but hey if it can, then more grease to your elbows.
In as much as we could be seeing the emergence of the creator coin economy we could probably also be witnessing the birth of the Social Economy.
Say what now, nah i beg to differ, Uhive already have a head start on that...
How does it work?
On its surface BitClout looks and operates like a variant of Twitter: with user accounts, user posts, likes, sharing, and even reposts.
But there is one major addition that makes BitClout an entirely different kind of network: for the first time, it is not the social network or media companies that profit from user generated content.
Well you know that's totally out of proof, i could literally mention a ton load of social networking sites who are already operational with such services i will limit it to noise.cash, memo.cash and uhive.
And just like the above mentioned already existing social media platform with earning opportunities and tipping services, it rewards it's active users and audiences for their content and activity on the platform.
But one very clear and distinctive features of BitClout is that each creator (user profile) has its own unique creator coin. For example, Kim Kardashian has Kimkardashian coins; Elon Musk has Elonmusk coins; and Coca Cola has Cocacola coins.
Anyone can make a user profile and have their own creator coin. Similarly, anyone can buy, sell, or hold these coins based on their expectations or affinity for the user profile behind the coin.
The coins have a built-in appreciating price auction.
The first profile coin sold is less than $1. But each subsequent coin minted and then sold has a pre-determined step up in value from the coin minted and sold before it.
So, by the time the 1000th coin is minted for a given profile, it is approximately $500,000 — a cost that is substantially higher.
Despite this, the platform remains accessible: it is possible to buy partial coins as well.
This increasing price of each subsequent coin creates an economic incentive and alignment for the creator and his or her coin holders.
The early birds get the worm--early users are rewarded as more people buy a creator’s coin.
As a result, the early backers have an incentive to help share and propel the popularity of the profile they are supporting.
In practice this is already working—there is a cooperative spirit on the platform that is evident.
Coin holders are not only sharing their favorite creators to a broader audience, but they are giving advice to those same creators to help them build an audience for their content and a user base for their coins.
Be they celebrities, influencers, brands, or causes people want to align with, creators benefit from what is known as “founder rewards.”
Each time someone purchases a creator’s coin (say an Elonmusk coin) with BitClout, a new Elonmusk coin is minted and delivered to the buyer.
In addition, the creator (e.g., Elon Musk) receives a fraction of those coins.
Elon Musk has the dual opportunity to benefit: First, as more users buy his coins, the price of his coin rises.
And second, he earns more tokens from each additional purchase by one of his followers. The combined result can be a very significant. About a month after the launch of the platform, Elon Musk has already earned $2.85 million in his own coins.
And note this economic opportunity is not limited to creators. Participants—fans, followers, the audience—can engage too.
Buying the coin of another individual, a brand, or a cause is not merely an indication of support, it is an opportunity to share in the value creation.
This is clearly a fundamental inversion of the way social networks have worked till now.
The model we all know is one where Facebook, Twitter, and the rest ingest content, creativity, and the lion’s share of profit from creators and participants.
While thin slices of influencers and creators have been able to get paid for promoting brands and businesses, the vast majority of content and participation is essentially “donated” to the social networks, which in turn monetize it on a massive scale.
BitClout is not just another social network with a twist. It is a much bigger idea dressed as a social network.
And over time, its underlying concept could represent a profound shift from a social network to a social economy.
While it's still in its infancy, and there is no guarantee of their success, creator coins may well turn out to be engine of the Social Economy. But a big change would be required.
Today, these coins are only accessible on BitClout.
For more adoption, the creator coins would need to be accessible anywhere. I expect that will happen seamlessly as the community extends the platform and extracts features from it. If this happens, these coins will end up with a much broader use than the BitClout social network.
This could perhaps build into an NFT merch support platform for a musician in a small venue early in her career. Your purchase of her coin may support her ability to broaden her marketing, to hone her craft, or simply to support herself. You might be more likely to share how much you liked her on your social media.
And the beauty of it is that you are not only helping to encourage the growth of the musician's early career to stardom, you will also get rewarded for supporting you upcoming musical act.
Thus in a possibly close future musicians, artists and other creatives may someday soon incentivize this behavior by giving their coin holders VIP entry to virtual or in-person events, or access to limited availability content or merchandise. Special pricing. Early access. And so on.
BitClout looks and gives a feel of an investing model that allows people to buy into their passions and beliefs. To invest in ideas and talents they enjoy and engage with in the ordinary course of the day.
And it tends to align incentives by encouraging people to promote the people, products, content, and causes that they are invested in emotionally and economically.
One apparent, even glaring, limitation within the BitClout system is that right now you can only buy BitClout. There is currently no way to sell BitClout. But the business was designed with this in mind.
As envisioned, selling is becoming a reality off BitClout. There is already an emerging market for selling the tokens on OTC desks. And both Coinbase and the founders of Gemini—two key exchanges—are amongst the many early investors of BitClout. It is not unreasonable to expect markets to emerge on these as well as other exchanges and OTC desks.
Expectations of the challenge of converting BitClout back into dollars could begin to abate over the coming months as liquid markets emerge.
Like they say, there are no guarantees with start-ups. And BitClout is no exception. But it does seem to have captured the attention and enthusiasm of many. In its first few weeks, the site was so overwhelmed with traffic it had to be taken down on several occasions.
In conclusion, if it could transit from it's dream stage into the realm of reality, it thus would be something that would garner massive embrace. But from where i'm standing right now, sounds like a lot of sales of hollow dreams and bullsh!t.
All things been equal, i still believe when it comes to social media, twitter and Instagram still takes the cake. But hey that's just me, What you think...An unrealistic dream with Shitty coins about to tank before it even takes its turn on the steering wheels? The next bluechip ETF about to exit the S&P 500 index? Give a shout on the comment boxes below.
Crypto Talk ~ April 2021 x How Did The Start Of The Second Quarter Meet You...
In the greens or in the reds?
...hopefully in the green. Getting stucked for hours in a heavily congested commute ain't fun, the busy easter feastivities has been all action packed with less thrill sequels in the wall streets. Stock indices been between the devil and the red blue sea, hopefully a stretch of the next 4 hours EMA would path the way for clear waters from it's parabolic Bermuda triangle wave beats into an upriver sail.
They say if her lips big and thick, then her lyric drip game is dead-on 6 feet deep lethal, the $TRX crystal nail drip getting some really nice green face mask and cucumber sliced eye blinds pedicure right now. It feels like it was only yesterday that $TRX being getting ping pong-ed from whatever high it was back to the constant $0.03 mark it's been housing for years. But the blinds tend to unveil something new to the backdrop this time around. Seems $TRX is taking a new shine to an ATH as of current $0.13 per unit, hopefully it creates a great lead on there and spring even higher above the next resistance line.
Bitcoin Cash on the other hand has been getting regulated down to division 3 since how long...like forever. Umm, can't really say what's the deal but hopeful this second quarter would send it back sitting on the table of the big league players soon. Can we see $BCH hit $700+ in this new quarter? And maybe the new hovering around net stand be somewhere around $600-$550 till the next rocket shot for the moon.
The dip of $BCH on the charts could possibly be owing to the fact that there really isn't any real valued platform to foster real world use case functionality or high value utility operability as at of this moment. I would like to think Read.Cash as of now is still the only real world applicable platform for Bitcoin Cash, however rusty still might need some tweaking and chip upgrade to be more spider-sensitive to underlining CSS debris as far as algorithm crawling goes.
Noise.cash would have been dope, but it does really suck often times that most of the notifications you get are spored from new and suspiciously spammy accounts, like you'd just look through a page and you had see a series of random-totally meaningless arrays of alphabets with no significance of whatsoever getting tipped. I guess that's one of the many reasons why noise.cash saw it fit to roll out a new metric of distributing free tips to users based on the quality of the content. Good redirection, but i feel like the picture post with one line caption being deemed low quality is just a bit out of frame, wouldn't you say? I mean the picture on its own already have a thousand words to say, seriously though, in as much as the one line caption gets some serious brain it shouldn't been knocked off as unworthy of free tips consideration.
While other cryptocurriences are baton changing lanes to reach for the moon, $ADA seems to be spiralling around a space station refueling for it's next orbit slingshot for the moon. Since Cardano 360 the February edition to Cardano 360 the March edition it's been a futsball move seeing it rally to $1.68 back to $1.22. In more recent times it's been a merry go-round refresh tossle back and forth between $1.22 to $1.18 for a couple of weeks consecutively.
I guess the new Mary Hard Fork look is still slowly getting wardrobe picks as people are yet to get a fashion sense of the scalability and coin printing issues it addresses. April 1st, marked a new milestone for Cardano, as of now Cardano is fully decentralized and as such this is great news for stake pool operators and $ADA hodlers alike.
What could this mean for stake pools? Hmm could probably mean minting more blocks per epoch thus meaning more staking rewards for each pool delegator.
If you new to staking $ADA or looking for a unsaturated pool to farm and harvest your $ADA rewards, join me on Husky Pools. http://t.me/huskypoolestonia
Bitcoin has been so namastay and been playing the doji star for since i can remember, i mean since some date night in March. Can Bitcoin match the $100,000 touch down yard this new quarter?
Whatever happened to those $1400 price tagged stimulus checks? We was hoping a chunk load of it would be flooding into Bitcoin and other altcoins. Well i guess with summer and spring break activities that spotlight could be hitting a different stage.
Has the new quarter been kind to you so far? You can let it rip at the comment boxes below.

Binance Smart Chain has been sort of a massive market changer in the Nigerian cryptospace since the ban of Nigerian banks granting access to cryptocurrency exchange operatives in it's vicinities. But still the issues of little or no knowledge about spots trading, unavailability of adequate access to market indicators to support better trading pair experience and stressful vertification phrases...would it be right to say Bundle Wallet is the next best solution to mirror transparency and accountability for peer to peer crypto transactions?
The Future Of TipB.CH ~ Yeah Or Nah
From the developers of noise.cash and read.cash comes a new platform to the game arena tipB.CH.
Will this be a game changer? Hmm...
Probably not, in a more futuristic binary streaming euphoric nebula, this would've been a rush, but the world still needs a bit of nudging and push to navigate through the big black cloud of ignorance surrounding Bitcoin's supremacy and question marks still looming around the cryptospace.
If we have to go in the periscope of value investing and behavioral finance, tipB.CH doesn't really scream much excitement. Most of the world is yet to catch up with the excitement of the unbanked-decentralized-non governance nature of the blockchain ecosystem as of current, let alone even begin to understand the importance of use cases, utilities, scalability and what-not.
...TipB.CH as seen is somewhat of a url link shortener for DNS account holdings of personalized designated Bitcoin Cash Wallet addresses. There's no further difference between it, PayPal dot Me customized links, or CashApp $tag tickers.
And if you do have to compare usage of those mega P2P giants to tipB.CH the room for a 100% scalability to the top of the success ladder is zilch, nada, zero. In a distant future, it may not be so, probably. A positive result would more than likely require a whole lot of Bitcoin Cash parade and mass adoption.
But again it would fare on how well tipB.CH is car pooled through twitter in it's beginning phrase. How not to get locked out of your twitter account? With the announcement of the beta testing phrase of the tipB.CH platform a plethora of tweets hashtagged with Bitcoin Cash and embedded outbound links to tipB.CH unique url pages have been chipping nothing but just that.
This was the start and fall of CPAleads third party links getting residence on twitter and this is how new pre-ICO coin airdrops get zero visibility on twitter. It sooner than later turns into an overload of the same tweet again, and again and again. Yeap that's a fast lane to borabora, z-town.
News in it's first take is a pain to sit through, imagine having to watch a rerun with no extra spicyness on top, that's going to be a total bore and complete waste of time you can't get back...so like always it just skimmed through and there is no CTR action leading to tip conversion.
I know it's nails in a haystack trying to crumble up some creativity and brain magic into 140 characters, but it still doesn't give off the fact that you can make that hollow cloud of nothing look more colorful.
I guess in essence, it all boils down to Bitcoin Cash Awareness and message. Rather than just sell the idea of making money by buzzing up the ambience on Noise.cash and publishing to get rewarded on Read.cash (well that's definitely a fast track to get more onboarders) what else can Bitcoin Cash apply to a real world module.
Low transaction fees? Well duh that's true, but guess you also heard that Tron native token TRX transacts at zero fees right?
Fast speed transaction, well it's first but guess what TRX is probably light speed-usain bolt faster.
Less FIAT to aquire more units of crypto? Bitcoin Cash is not exactly in the league...so guess what, you probably guessed right--it doesn't scream buy more of me, as it would do TRX or Dogecoin.
I could literally go in more into possibly a million and one ways why tipB.CH may fall flat on its butt before it even crawled but will just throw a diaper around only this few doodles now.
It would have more chance of uplift it mirrored more of the Publish0x in blurb mechanics or noise tiny tantrums inspired by BCH free tip drops for on page conversions and usage.
Well this is just the tails, there is likely more head to this. But i see more of this coin toss in the distant future.
Got a different opinion? No pressure, shoot me your views on the comment boxes below.
Cardano Rallies It's Way Back To The Third Spot ~ But Can It Hold It's Spot
Since the last days of February opening into the new beginnings of March, Cardano saw itself on the third spot. But like they say getting to the top is easy but staying on there is a whole new challenge on its own.
A few contributing factors that might have seen it reach a new peak as at then might have likely boiled into the combination of the following factors.
One being the $300,000 buy of $ADA by the legendary Gene Simmons, KISS bass guitarist, two being grayscale investment initiating a Cardano listing on their hedge fund options or three the launch of the Mary hard fork.
Of all the possibilities, the launch of the Mary hard fork was pretty much the most anticipated news and supposedly the new vehicle to take cardano into a new and remarkable milestone.
However so as it seems, that great lift has yet to leave the landing strip or tarmac. This could likely owe to the fact that the end of the first quarter of the year is gradually closing it's curtains, to give way for a new act.
Well i guess it's too early to say she (Mary) has underperformed as it's just a couple of days old, not even up to a month yet. The element of ultimate surprise is still an open window, and besides Alonso is soon to follow.
In the early hours of the day Cardano was seen to be at the third spot, but as at the time of writing Binance Smart Chain is beating Cardano to the third spot with just a few market cap $ difference. Seems BSC is aiming to get more Master degree rise up it's chains.
On an opposing universe though BSC powered yield farming DeFis such as Pancake Swap and Cream Finance have been having a not so red carpet event lately. The pull rug clamp down on ApeSwap should have given off a notice, well hoping the hijacks on Pancake Swap and Cream Finance gets a fix soon though.
A lot is riding on Pancake Swap and Cream Finance getting back control as it could invariably determine the future of yield farming.
Could this also have a negative pull on Binance having it's top performance on the third spot. Polka faced and fingers crossed looking to see how it rides out.
Well all things are looking green on the Cardano ecosystem and the hopes of bearing more fruits is already driving up some traction.
With the speculation of 100 new protocols onboarding on Cardano, listing on Bloomberg and coinbase pro will likely have ADA shoot through the barrier, skyrocketing the charts to a new high of $1.50 or $2 breaking the resistance pivot point that have been bouncing back the value gain back to $1.07 to $1.10 range for 3 weeks now.
Do you think Cardano can get back to the third spot and retain it?
The Pandemic, Normalcy And The Future
*Is life slowly returning back to normalcy and gearing towards a post covid-19 society? Or is it still a dream in pursuit of?*
The memories of warmth and hugs seems to be like a dream from a distant past, however the feeling of anxiety which came with social distancing has fast tracked into a manageable coping environment for most adults and kids alike. But nothing beats the feeling of warmth rushing through hugging bodies and the smile that erupts afterwards.
Having lived in a covid-19 nebula for this long, been able to show close affections, hugs and exchange of kisses is certainly something of high demand if a fort worth promise puts forth itself to the table.
Last Thursday night (Mar. 11, 2021) The US President Joe Biden addressed the nation in a voice of hope, stating that the goal to return to normalcy will soon be a reality.
Urging all Americans to play their part, stated that if all goes well they would be able to celebrate the fourth of July Independence day in a much more warm and friendlier atmosphere-normal settings.
Videos of grandparents certified vaccinated reacting to hugging their grandkids for the first time after a long while has recently been making waves on the net. And has been getting a lot of emotional traction and a nostalgic feeling.
And as such inspired more grandparents to share their own experiences. Evelyn Shaw a vaccinated grandmother who received her you can now hug your granddaughter medical prescription for the first time after the corona pandemic has described the embrace as an out-of-body experience.
The all teary eyed sobbing New York grandmother also went further to say that it was blissful, it was wonderful and it will be something she never forgets.
Following Joe Biden's address to the nation, do you reckon the same blissful and wonderful teary eyed experiences will make a replay of itself before or during the fourth of July fireworks?
Probably not likely says Dr. Amesh A, Alalja, a senior scholar at the John Hopkins centre for health security believes that the May 1 add on speech by US president Joe Biden for the opening of more vaccination facilities doesn't necessarily gives off the possibility but only guarantees a scheduled down appointment.
He also states that while you may be able to schedule an appointment, it could be weeks after the May 1 deadline that you could get vaccinated. There has been a lot of chatter that some states like Alaska and Michigan are already moving forward with lifting the eligibility requirements.
Alaska has made the vaccine eligible for individuals of age 16 and above.
However, in regards to when the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine being available for children. Dr. Alalja says that it's a little less clear. He adds that clinical trials are currently ongoing for older children. And that the date it will be authorized for use is still yet to be determined.
In the quest to speed up the vaccination process and fast coverage over a wide blank, The Joe Biden's administration has requested that more people in the likes of dentists, veterinarians, emergency medical technicians, midwives, optometrists will be allowed to administer the vaccination.
And in regards to fourth of July and the possibility of having a normal setting and friendlier atmosphere. Dr. Alalja says it's in the realm of possibilities to celebrate as normal which is highly depended on the majority of people gathered that has been vaccinated.
Well this does go with the whole mumble jumble conspiracy theories, always been on the fence with these thesis though. I mean what do you all think, would you say thumbs up to the whole end of days-mark of the beast patenting theory or the genetic manipulation under the microscope hypotheses or just go with the flow like it's normal.
That outside, it's a fact that getting cooked up in house, getting all biohazard masked up and struggling with hug withdrawals is just overwhelming and getting back to the old days is just all most of us wants. And everyone is much looking forward to it.
In the meantime, i guess it is what it is. Well cheers to the old days of full on daylight activities in close quarters unmasked.

As i go to sleep, Lord i pray my soul to keep. And if i should die before i wake, accept me through the pearly gates. Bullet shells thunder clapping on the floor, hard hitting tears drum rolling, on the slippery floors! On the slippery floors. Tire marks and trailing smokes, wheels turning and ERs. Jews and the wailing walls, sunset east ends to the floor. When it rains it pours, when it rains it pours, when it rains it pours.
EKGs go flat lining, resuscitating next in line. Lobbies of holding hands, rosaries and folding hands. Prayers up for the struggling soul, cheers to all the hopeful, may answers not redirect, cause of recorded fouls. Escaping tears quake the earth, reminiscences and flash backs, duffle bags or last breathe.
Too many in-turned, role models in brown bottles. Royal blues and greys, blood reds and carton browns. It's all rainbows but no colours, white noise and silver barks.All black, everything. It's all black, everything. All black, everything.
Eulogies and roses, headstones and gardens. Apologies and liquor drops, sand toss and vandana drops. Dice throws and street corners, wig splitters and hair dressers. Needles and clinicals, needles and crystal meth. Crying moms rocking empty cradles. Grieving paps on stallions, down the saddle to waterworks. Fireworks and fireworks, leads to a dragon cycle of fallen soldiers. Medal of honour for the lost. Where's the valour in it except emptiness and high cost.
The streets and the fast lane, the rat race and caged cheese. Depressions and impressions, facials in the denial. Grace find or find grace, Single moms creating spaces to make aces, daylight nursing to nocturnal masseuse. Awards and rewards become tears swollen make up concealed eyebags. Massacre and messed up mascara.
As i lay me to sleep, Lord i pray my soul to keep. And if i should die before i wake, accept me through the pearly gates. Protect and serve, shoot first and ask questions later. Pressure rises to shifty trigger fingers, misfires and blood stained food stamps. Too late body already on the floor, body drops and tear drops. Flyers to shielded five 0s, water sprays and chaos. Match up parades to Cinco de Mayos, black life matters to all life matters. Take a stand or take a kneel, peace and war or war and war. How far does the rubicle goes.
Tears drop for the lost souls, salutes for the heros. Flashbacks to Cheetos, a bowl full of liquid memories.

Was listening to this when the above spilled ink into creation.
A Working Title ~ Bronx The City That Never Sleeps
It's five O'clock in the morning, the silence of the night is broken by the sound of the alarm clock. Eyes still sleepy, body slowly drags itself out of bed. Thoughts of taking a cold shower sends chills down the spine before the turn on of the shower. Few trinkles of droplets later thoughts dashes between what to eat, slowly the tick of the clock reminds. Short is time, busy is the commute.
Stepping out into the dim lit streets, the beast slowly awakens from it's misty dreams. Blinding bokeh of head lights flashing through the thin air. The honking of cars gradually tearing through the air like a roar.
A clandestine pull off the veil, light breaks through the silk fabric revealing tiny little stumping feets, racing through the cross roads towards a stampede of abrasively brushing shoulders. Engulfed in a labyrinth of poignant fragrances, a rhythm of tapping shoes are heard a far through the descent down the subway.
With the hiss of smoke the train sets a run down the tunnel till the next terminal stop. A few hops the stairs reveal a fully awakened beast, the mechanical synth leads of man-hole drills reeks through the air. The yellow zebra stripes zip lining through the busy streets, the slight jingles of open door bells chime through the air.
Sound buzzing off to a clock in log through, a stern stir slowly rides into view. Words not said, but a message conveyed. Pushing through the glass door awaits a stack of Friday left over paper work. A quick dial on the teleprompter, demands a rough tossle of papers to find.
Staggering through the door, slowly finding footing through the puzzles of 4x4 cubic box spaces. A wave down the hall signaling urgency, bumping into a coffee tray, carrier slowly turns and mimes a Colombia neck tie. The thundering of files on the desk swipes the view back to an awaiting eager face.
Hands hanging in the balance awaiting the drop of paper work, eye catches the coffee stain, slowly expressions foams into question marks. Phew comes a sigh, a swing of the head and palm to head. A gaping lagoon takes shape but is quickly swallowed in a shark jaw. Get back to your office rents the air, feets dragging against the floor meets a familiar roll back chair.
Slamming into the chair triggers a click on the HP Keys, an eagerly anxious beep meets a blink clearly stating you have 1050 unread emails is stamped on the screen. Eyeballs orbiting through its milky way, the nebulla ice cream truck WTF jingles echoes down every line of thought. A two round trip spins of the chair initiates an arrival back to reality. A caress of the orb spores up excitement, a scroll down the list of emails sets the day in motion.
A few click throughs meet nothing actually interesting except for an e-vite to the Mary Dubois Gala night. Ctrl + L puts the screen to sleep, the rustling sounds of paper rents the air. A few scribbles of ink and a call out to the assistant takes the scene. Door bust opens, a dash through the door meets a tall 6'0 silhouette with goldy locks hair.
Struggles to get out of the intoxicating bliss suddenly faced with becomes even harder. Eyes falling straight at the middle of her bossoms, oh my God she must have seen the cherry blossoms go off on my cheeks. As she suddenly tilts her hair to the sides and plasters a breathtaking smile to her lips. The repeated echos of Sir slowly gains recognition, is every thing ok sir is mumbled through a sing song ballad.
A few shifts on the chair gradually puts perspective back in check, are there any appointments today sir she sings a quick verse awaiting a duet. Trying to mumble up a rap but dabba dabba dabba mouths off this baby. Stuttering words form and it's followed with a quick lullaby. No, i jes wantin fi chek wehn is deh time fi di ting tank prujekt sit dong suddenly echoes out. A string in a(n) chord her metallic guit rifts ballads i will find out. Back turned hands drawn to focus, suspense slow motion plays a stretching hand drifting to meet the departing hands.
A quick twist forward head down to ear, whispers of yuh di hye light af mi day breezes through her ears. With a soft smile, lips lay on lips, pressed against each other even harder. With a slow yet intense lock lips and tunnel looping tongues seconds slips away. And she mutters you just a tease, see you at home honey.
Silhouette image slowly straightens into a height, dabs at her shirt to brush off the ruffle squeeze and takes a flight off the door way with a slowly escaping sound of "te amo" trailing along her. Rustling after rustling the ticking clock reminds its lunch time. A buffett of all you can eat aura marinates the air, a quick carousel spin slowly drifts to a stop of choice, protein bars and shakes.
Pager beeps chimes in a reminder for the think tank project meeting, a rubbing of arms and a few soft flips of hands over face, comes crumbling down beard out food residues.
One sheep, two sheep, three sheep time slowly fades to 17h00. Buzzer going off to clipping sound of signing off stamp duty. Charter of zip lining car pools gaining volume every step further the path, eloping whistling of hikers trying to catch a lift takes tune. Soon the stampede is closed in, bruising shoulders hits target from every corner with every stride to the subway. A card swipe down the slot brings to view the fare, train door opens to a crowd of fully leased out seats. No cutsees, it's a stand ride all the way down the tunnel.
Flights up the stairs elopes into a sunsetting sky line, busy commute slowly unwinding into a few trodden footings. The night is young, a stroll down the paths elates strobing street lights, young loves clicking spoons to dinner wares. Slow soft music serenading the air, a few dispatch charter disrupts the silence. Arising noises come from the alleys, a couple of cats on a tag you it shenanigans.
Few zooms down the path a pack of dogs playing catch tails, triads down the block pushing keys. Bounce off lights slowly accentuating leathery cute mannequins on stilletos trying to get some night sting. The barber down the streets rolling down the shutters ready to lock, soft mourns and metallic buzzing sound rifts off the neighboring tattoo parlour.
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, a familiar door opens to a recurring smiling 6'0 tall silhouette with goldy locks hair waving a come in sign. Door closes to a tight hug, followed with intense kisses on the lips, clothes tossles and footings later, bed crickling and crickling and crickling. A light escapes through the door way, some trinkling water droplets later, footings find their way back to the bed.
A quick soft brushing of hands through hair, and a few kisses, she closes her eyes and mutters "dulce sueños". Scene slowing fading into a black out as eyelids get heavy, no sooner does the 5 o' clock alarm buzzer go off again.
Welcome to the Bronx the city that never sleeps, the cycle continues.
$GMG Vs $PWR ~ The Pump And Correction
There is always a first time for everything and the fear of the unknown often draws up anxiety which builds up stress. The news of welcoming a new infant into the family and the general world comes with mixed feelings especially for new moms. This tends to build up the stress level of the intending mom causing an estrogen imbalance.
On a regular day estrogen imbalance causes weight gain in the hips and waist. With pregnancy, estrogen causes weight gains which demands more than the normal water intake which tends to act as a support for the growing embryo, fetus and placenta. It's very important to properly hydrate your body as fluids are required to kayak roll the vitamins and essential nutrients in your body to the fetus to grow healthy. But most times, the required amount of needed glasses of water is overspent and causes the body mass to expand and results to bloating.
Bloating opens the body to gestational weight gain. **Gestational weight gain is a normal body change and weight gain that occurs during the period of conception and birth of an infant, it is also a natural response to accommodate the growing fetus.**
And as the fetus keeps growing the body mass stretches a few tapes requiring more body fluids, the body gains extra weights and love handles, also leading to swollen-tender breast, swollen pregnancy bumps, swollen arms, feets and thighs. This tends to inteprete to the mind fatigue, tiredness and the demand for more rest comes into the forefront.
And with rest those used to be-perfectly sculpted abs loses its thickness even further all the way to months after the birth.
Often times the extra weight gained during pregnancy still remains after birth, this tends to cause postpartum stress as the new mom desires to get her perfect body back. This tends to lead to mood swings and depression thus leading to an eating binge season. And with no right education and knowledge of the required food and nutritional supplements, the postpartum weight retention stays even longer.
Love your postpartum body, take things slowly and have a realistic weight loss plan and calendar.
**You probably thinking breastfeeding would use up a lot of calories right? Well you not far from the truth, but a close neighbor is the prolactin hormone which stimulates appetite causing a craving to consume even more food**. And as such there is an imposing careless abandon that rents the space in regards to cart shopping for the essential grocery and nutritional needs, thus promoting the already existing postpartum weight retention.
**Studies suggest that women in their 30s or 40s are more likely to experience more postpartum weight retention than women in their 20s. And that women in their 30s are more likely to get back to their pre-pregnancy body in 18 months**.
However, even at such instance the shredding Lbs tend not to come as fast as it maybe desired. And with the drive to make a U-turn to size zero and a perfect cup size, impatience builds up, and the high and low parabolic estrogen ying-yang recycle starts again thus receding the postpartum weight retention even further.
This thus call for a healthy correction of the charts before it goes into a completely unhealthy all time high, leading to obesity which makes the body prune to high body sugar including non-cancerous growth in the breast.
The first call option at this point is to create a relaxing atmosphere to speed down your constantly thought pressurized stress and anxiety. You had think sitting in a spot doing nothing will literally drift you into a lotus of calmness, it doesn't. ***Did you know that drinking just plain hot tea tends to stimulate the brain into grinding slowly to a break thus opening up the body to acquire stillness of mind***.
Did you also know that you can perfect this calmness of mind by meditating? Your body is constantly swirling around with thoughts and energy. Meditation is a way of opening your chakra gates, probably known as specific nerve endings to release the negative thoughts and energy out, thus bringing your body and mind to a state of calmness.
Reaching a state of Nirvana is a peaceful climax for the soul, it helps to keep you in a constant bubble of healthy-positive thoughts. Less negativity and less stress induces faster recovery to losing those extra post pregnancy baby fat.
Choosing to follow up with yoga exercises and stretches is pretty much very important at this point in time. It may not seem like it, but yoga stretches and exercises are good faucets to burn fats and calories. Well it may not necessarily dice down your Lbs quickly but it definitely shreds down a few pounds every stretch.
One of the good things about yoga exercises is that it fits your body into a perfect riddim ushering in a mood swing fix as it creates room to comfortably breathe in between stretches and exercises. You need not go shopping for some pricey synth-stretched spandex accentuated sports bra and yoga pants, a simple comfy lyrca pants and cotton fabric embellished top will do just about fine.
Yoga mats will be a bare essential of course to help keep you in good standing against friction of falling flat on your face and tummy. At this stage can't really tell if the use of tummy tuckers, waist trainers (cinchers) or tummy resistance utility belts would be a much welcoming addition. But definitely a welcome guest further paths down the road to being sculpted into the perfect hour glass figure.
To get our yoga on, would probably require starting with the **Prana flow (Pranayama),** this is a yoga posture that involves you sitting in a lotus position of crossed legs and both hands half way stretched up till your lower arms come into an eased down arc at both elbows. This posture allows you to tilt your movements from left to right without putting too much movement into your middle back. You can also decide to modify the position into just one hand at a time, half stretched upward to arc downwards to the opposite side of the body and opposite hand folding into a downwards 90° to support the stomach, arching upward hands should be in sync with the direction you tilt your body to for perfect riddim.
Prana flow tightens your entire core including your pelvic floor, back and hips. Other than it's breathing moderation helping to release stress, it also helps to tighten your abs, strengthen the lower back, improve stamina and strength.
You can follow up the Prana flow closely with **Plank Vinyasa**. Plank Vinyasa positions you into an all four doggy position which slowly builds into a stretched out left feet parallel to a triangle forming arched knee press to your elbows allowing your spine to be in direct line of sight with your shoulders so as to accommodate the incoming stomach contraction to build stronger stamina and strength.
Next in line is the **Locust Pose (Salabhasana)**, the locust pose takes a pose of lying body straight flat to the mat, which slowly builds into a lift of chest, face and legs off the mat with hands stretched backwards. This position contracts the stomach and thus helps to build deep back core strengths and relieves the lower back and upper body strain.
Following closely would be the **Pelvic Tilt**, this probably one of the most relaxing yoga positions. Pelvic tilt positions you to lying flat down on your mat with your back to the floor, which slowly builds into an uneven triangle posture demanding your legs arched into a 45° peak to accommodate for a push of the body upwards. For a better result, lay your hands down straight synced in direct line with your falcrum positioned feets while you tilt your waist upwards. This helps to strengthen the upper back, the lower back, hips and legs including the pelvic floor.
The pelvic tilt opens way to the **Legs Wide Pose**, it starts off with your back flat against the mat, both legs kicked into the air to form an L shape fairly spread apart, one hand stretched in between both legs and the other to the back of the neck to easily accommodate the push of the upper back upwards. This upward squeeze of the upper body to the stomach allows for a tummy contraction and helps to strengthen the deep abdominal muscles and stretches the hamstring.
Pushing forward you can transform into the **Scissors Pose**, the basic is still the same, that is positioning your back flat against the floor with both legs and arms upwards. Then you pick either the left side of your body or right side and as such sync the movements of your body to going in the same riddim pattern tilting to the same direction slightly downwards. For the scissors pose to get an effective result, it's important that the neck and shoulders are slightly and comfortably lifted off the mat. This helps to improve the hips and spine flexibility and at the same time strength the deep abdominals of the core.

And always remember to have a good repeat pattern of every yoga stretch from the Pranayama Asana to the scissors pose between 5 to 10 reps each, and remember to have a good in between-stretch breathing distribution and exchange of inhales and exhales to get the best results.
Burning calories without also balancing it off with a perfect dietary nutriance intake is a recipe for prolonged goal crushing gratification.
*Studies suggest that in order to maximize your yoga stretches and road to recovery it's vital that you lean towards low fat meals such as low fat dairy products, protein rich meals such as poultry, fibre rich meals such as fruits, vegetables and whole grain meals. Including a reduction in red meat consumption and little or no consumption of oil oversaturated meals.*
Thanks for reading, and remember to always find time to create a peaceful-calming environment for yourself. Plus putting in a good workout, relaxation and meditation combo for self.
The road to recovery begins with your mind, have a good start there and the rest will take care of itself.
The Grey Block At The Red Light District
**Passion puts more colour into a relationship, always find more energy in every kiss, every tender touch, every hand hold and even the littlest thing and let it build into an artful masterpiece.**
It's always fun at the early stages of marriage when the passion is still young and hungry. And every little detail feels like a drag of euphoria, every sensation and touch completely felt and embraced. We often do wish these memories last a long time, but sadly it's not always so.
As the days continue to expand into months, kids come into the picture, and the frame often tends to shift into a new focus. Often times at the earlier years of welcoming an infant into a new home, parenting kicks into full gear and everything else literally takes the back seat.
With a baby in the picture it is often impossible to juggle the task of parenting with other things. At this stage there is likely little or no room for romance, with the baby being the centre of attention and all.
The days become so demanding as having to keep constant watch over the baby becomes the number one priority, and foreclosed nights of sleep deprivations to care for the baby takes left, right, front and center for the young mother. With so much VIP attention needed by the baby, and constant duty stamps of baby food pukes over clothes.
Women tend to struggle with waking up from a perfectly toned body to the reality of the weight gains (and love handles) that comes during and after the first pregnancy.
The expectation to bounce back into physical attractiveness becomes even higher when a stroll for grocery shopping takes them through a parkway of magazine covers stamped with slim, thick, athletic fit girls. This tends to open up windows for negative body self image and depression.
You need to reassure her that she's still the amazing woman you fell in love with and married. Women always want to be reassured that your feelings and love hasn't changed over time, more especially now than ever.
Words are sweet but actions are much more in demand. An occasional show of emotional support, tender touches, soft kisses on the lips and forehead, holding hands or a hug goes a long way to improving her predisposition on her negative body self image.
If it needs getting a personal instructor, getting a gym subscription or creating a personal workout plan to get her self confidence back, then you should lend an ear and cheer her all the way through the process.
A positive body image of self helps to build back self confidence, and with self confidence the desire to play dress up brings the sexy back. As women are to expressive feelings, men are to visuals and touch.
Wardrobe malfunctions do sets back passion in relationships and as well in marriages.Often times, women tend to just settle into the thought that his got me now, i don't have to do too much to catch his attention. And other times, with respect to the fully charged schedule of juggling between household chores, parenting, puke stained fittings and laundry rounds eats through the time to go fashion crazy.
However, looking sexy plays an important role in keeping the passion alive in a relationship. It doesn't just boost your body self image, it also keeps your man attracted to you.
What's your favorite pair of lingerie that catches his attention? Does he like lacy panties or silk ones. Take him through a series of adventures of different lingerie sets, spice it up with pair of corsets, watch his reaction, how he responds and play to his interest. Work up a series of cosplay roles and see if he responds to any.
A lot could go into a simple one piece lingerie fishnet set or a nylon-spandex nurse cosplay get up. The key is to find what captures his interest, and play hotspots to those ends.
Communication used effectively drives up the passion in a relationship. In order to capture his interest, you should be able to ask questions and also be able to communicate your needs to your partner in return. Both partners should be able to communicate their positive needs rather than what they don't need, this portrays a medium of communication that identifies each partner's need without complaints or blame. This helps to strengthen the bond including intimacy and romance in relationships.
Rather than getting defensive and demanding or offensive and withdrawing or letting the power play do more harm to your relationship, have a good sit down discussion and touch up on your positive wants and try to find a compromise.
Creating date nights and a couples time alone moments are also very much in the play to get the sexy back into relationships and marriages. With a time schedule super charged with desktop paperworks, household chores and parenting, time should be taking to plan out relaxing alone with your partner. An atmosphere where more attention and communication is themed towards having fun and activities that helps to bounce passion back to your relationship.
When was the last time you surprised your partner with something out of the blue. Surprise your man with a trail of rose petals and a set of mind blowing lingerie, treat your lady to a candle lit, champagne in hand, bubble bath and awake some of that lost passion back.
Plus it doesn't hurt to once in a while skip the after work hang out with the guys to spend more time with her, or take your turn with the chores so she can be relaxed and be able to find the energy to work up your passion in the bedroom.
Love is two people discovering their flaws and still choosing to be together, let love lead the way.
Road Signs ~ A Trip To Intimacy x 108 Boulevard
Oh my God that feeling you get when you just start dating it's super crazy exciting ain't it, the script always tend to be perfectly rehearsed with opening scenes capturing dinner dates, hand squeezed together-nose rubbing-lips kissing cinema roomcoms, and picnicking at hotspots.
And often times sequels upon sequels of happy endings roll into the box office, and other times it turns into a complete horror movie or occasional drama soaps.
The thrills at the start is always head over heels-hair blowing in the wind magical, but often times the knots of expectations in need of instant gratification begins to run split ends and tends to break the balance throwing it into a thick frizz.
These frizz come in form of less outings and less communication. When you paint the town red you tend to run out of new fun places to explore.
Let things happen naturally, don't speed your way through the first week of the relationship only to turn out a bore. Often times the overwhelming exciting rush to serenade your way into your intended partner's heart makes you quickly burn out of fun ideas to keep the magic going.
At this pit stop you tend to want to out do the grand experience of the previous date meet up, and miss out on actually enjoying the experience. Slow your roll driver or you may get a ticket and miss the green light.
On the rear end view though, you also want to mirror to your intended that you can also turn the key and toggle up the boost once awhile, you don't want your riding shotgun going all my Gran'Ma can drive faster than you, step it up.
It's suppose to be a fun ride, so relax turn on the radio, let the music permeate the atmosphere and just go with the riddim, you however need to chime in once awhile with some conversation.
The pursuit for perfection is probably a HillyBilly's dream for a pony in a rainbow land. Again don't put too much expectations in, or you will just listen and reply back with a yes or no black box crusher.
It can't always be a smooth sailing conversation 24 hours, 7 days, 365 days a year; there is bound to be awkward moments. Even well seasoned actors get all bloopy to dialogue scripts at the BTS takes. And that's VFX matte paint tapestri-ed, so you can't expect no different from reality.
Relationships are suppose to be real and not perfect, but hey if you trying to get that, it's totally cool. But don't drive too much energy into it, you might send the entire relationship into a toxic explosion.
Relationship strives on knowing each other, and the vehicle to push that is communication. A good road map of communication steers the relationship on the right track.
Bringing an open mind to the table of discussion helps to ease down the facts you take in, getting to know someone new, you will probably have to pass through the good, the bad and the ugly. And if you actually in it for the finish line be ready for some grease stains and trophies.
However, often times there are pit stops, it's probably inevitable.
Have you ever thought about these though? Introverts get easily bored and do more of listening to speaking. And extroverts do more talking rather than actually listening. Weird right?
Throw me an ambivert (laughs) just kidding.
Introverts are most of the time silent and rather just sit and watch you talk, so if you get more of yes and no throw backs it's A-okay, again let it flow naturally don't force things. And most if not all the time, they actually get you and once a while give some really good comebacks.
The sideline though is that, you probably have to really throw in some funny jokes once awhile or really keep the conversation going or it's just going to turn into a scrolling through the phone contest.
Extroverts on the other hand, got all the jokes and handles but most times just want to hear theirselves talk. Rude much probably, nah just kidding, depends on how it reflects on the other side of the mirror. They tend to be super hyperactive to respond and often don't see beyond the surface meaning and in between the lines of the conversation coming at them.
So if the communication goes sideways before tossing the coin to the waiter, take a tip at this...can you see him or her in your future? What side of the coin is your intended?
And now to the dessert, Creme Brulee anyone.
Good communication is a biology of its own, dissert it right and your chemistry will bloom even more. Communication helps to build bonds, it slowly cracks down the high walls and brings down the castle draw bridges.
Once the Rapunzel is out of the castle, it's a barbie tea cup party-comfort food kinda thing. In such comfort comes the soft romantic touches on your shoulders, knees or middle back, a soft squeeze of hands, soft teasing giggles, flirty airy sultry pitched voice, occasional teasing body bumps, craftily planned lean in set up for a kiss and intense eye contact stirs.
And with more constant trips to this part of town, jiggling of keys at the door, the soft toss of the hair to the sides, the teasing stroke hand play through the hair, intense gazes and lean in paves the way for kissing, cuddling and intimacy.
In as much as it's a general debate that girls prefer the man initiate the moves, it's also debatable to state that some girls will often times than none lead the flow. Best you know, if you driving or riding shotgun in time so you get up to speed.
Did you know that besides kissing building intimacy in a relationship it also boosts your happy hormones?
Happy hormones naturally elevates your mood and makes you more relaxed and thus helps to relief stress. Can kissing everyday make you feel and look young everyday? It's possible, did you know that swapping of split helps to boost immunity? Perfectly functioning healthy cells keeps the body fresh and young.
Did you know that kissing can act as a natural botox to repel wrinkles and as lipo redux for your facelift?
Kissing releases oxytocin hormones (love hormones) that helps to strengthen bonds and satisfaction. Happy hormones reduces cortisol (stress) levels in the body and improves self worth and esteem.
Did you know that kissing reduces blood pressure? Did you also know that kissing can relief your headache?
Cuddles and hugs on the other hand not only helps to improve bond between love birds, it also helps as an anti-coolant body temperature regulator.
Did you know that the cuddling and spooning position creates a sense of calmess and protection, thus creating a safe space to sleep well...
Too many relationships take a blow to the head and never recover because along the way expectations rode in on high horses, fun took a vacation from the circus and ruccus took forefront and center.
Tough situations don't last, tough people do. When it all comes crumbling down, go back to the drawing boards, make it a priority to do what you did from the very start that lit the flame in the first place.
A rose petals candle lit day to you.
KYP ~ Know Your Partner, It's Not A Trap
Probably cheeky but the banks don't play with these information when it comes to building a relationship with their customers.
In a funny way, same rules apply to relationships. The question is why is it important though?
I was scrolling through facebook a couple of days back and i stumbled on this status update "*the trick is to not let people know how weird you are until it's too late for them to back out*".
**Ain't trying to get all loud and spliffy but that right there is the reason why most relationships end quickly, marriages end up with litigation battles over child custody, asset-property settlement suits and divorce**.
An arguable debate could be that most people are scared of being judged by their flaws.
Another plausible debate could be ****they haven't developed enough trust to be comfortable being theirself around the significant other.****
Whichever debate that falls into the discussion, *it still remains true that you can't have an amazing relationship without being honest with each other.*
**I mean i've seen real world situations where a guy rolls up a cigar daily and literally does a dolphin flip in glasses of Whiskey everyday, without the girl knowing and when they get married, he feels like his trapped cause he no longer has the privileges and tends to sneak around to do his regular. Same can be said of a lady, well not all the way, but same scene different stage props.**
**Bad habit? probably, but imagine just how it would of been easy if he had just been himself and went with the flow...he wouldn't be feeling trapped in the marriage cause she would have already witnessed it and accepted the fact**.
Or on the other hand, will feel completely disgusted and had find a way to fix it, worse case scene she would of left.
***Either way you wouldn't have to feel trapped in a personality you are forced to puppet play to every waking day after the walk down the isle.***
Being yourself and having a close to perfect knowledge of your partner makes the verbal fights and exchanges less experienced, as you are already aware of what makes the other tick and the pleasure spots as well.
"When she gets mad, kiss her, when she cries hug her and when his mad, just hug him-but make sure your concerns are heard first, unless it will be pointless"
Here is the thing though, arguments could most of the time be healthy as it tends to paint a dent that is now known and can easily be airbrushed over at the next coating of the paints.
But most people are too scared to be theirselves cause of the fear of being judged, if (s)he can't love you with your flaws then (s)he just a sojourner through your path and isn't meant to make a tent in your life. So you not meant to play rent to his (or her) opinion about you.
*The past isn't a castle to reside, it's a place to visit and pick one or two lessons to improve upon*. Lot of people dwell too much in the past and never take a step forward into a new relationship without overthinking stuff.
**Assumptions have killed more relationships than infidelity ever did, just because of the pride to communicate your fears with your significant other**.
Communicate, communicate, communicate...
It's funny how this very vital component goes missing in relationships.There is no such thing as too much communication. And it's funny when people complain about receiving good morning text everyday, a late night tell me how your day went conversation is exhausting, always on about how the "how you doing" conversation gets boring and assuming the person is too needy for attention.
And on the other spectrum, there is the **hey, i dropped a hint, you should automatically understand what i mean individuals**. **We're not nano bot chipped computers with blueprints of the streams of your thoughts**. Congrats to those couples who have reached that level of mastery though, but if you haven't, don't compare you and yours truly with theirs.
Rome wasn't built in a day, they made room to harness communicating to each other daily to get to that point where they literally finish each others sentences, or just waved they hand and the significant other just knows what follows, and just went on ahead and did it without a word uttered.
If you don't gat it, you don't gat it, rather than fence up, use your words to guide your partner to what you are trying to communicate, and they will love you for it.
Communicating your thoughts with your partner builds trust. But at the same time making her laugh and smiling from ear to ear definitely throws in the cushion to build comfort.
****With comfort comes a new level of surrender where you partner no long feels the need to mask their true reality anymore****.
And it literally gets to the point where they can let some fart noise run lose when you around, go completely nuts and be whatever.
And from here upwards it's pretty much good vibes and checking off lists on your relationship goals. And often times you get the scar torn smile Joker or Daddy's lil monster Harleys, whom will most definitely spawn up some crazy conversations, steamy hot blockbuster nights and early morning re-runs. It doesn't get any bipolar than that.(Laughs)
At this stage, if you up for the ride, then like Beyonce would say if you like it, you should put a ring on, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh 🎶
But you definitely have to be sure you at that level first, **you don't want to be breaking Banks to fix up smashed broken car lights, redo your car paint job, replace your TV or furniture now**. Do you?
And with that i tip my hat, take a bow and leave you with the words of Robert Kiyosaki--*Pick your partners wisely. While it's true, don't forget to be a good partner yourself*.
Possibilities ~ A Light At The End Of The Tunnel
It seems a little bit of florals are beginning to plant vines back to the Nigerian social fabric and crypto space.
It was only a couple of days ago when the so not heart warming love letter rip a hole through the hearts of the crypto community in Nigeria, rolling out a memo through its Apex financial arm, the Central Bank of Nigeria restricting Crypto-USD pegged exchange organisations and individuals alike from depositing into and withdrawing Fiat money from crypto trading.
The world has gone big on cryptocurrency adoption and even multi-facet financial institutions are biting into the dip, with major e-commerce and peer to peer payment merchants like PayPal, MasterCard and Visa currently biting into the steak. It will be unwise to be blind to the huge potentials it holds for the government in outsourcing for foreign investments and developments.
Besides the Asian market, Africa happens to be the next largest demographic to gain a lot from the utility and use cases of the blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.
There is no doubt that the poverty rate in Africa with Nigeria inclusive have been so high and mooning since the last millennium and doubled with the presence of the covid-19 outbreak and lockdowns.
Invariably adding to one of the reasons why there are reduced foreign investment activities, it is of no doubt that in the past a lot of foreign firms who looked into Nigeria as an investment Haven ran scared of the incessant limited supply of electro-power, kidnaps of foreign expatriates and the inflating price tag on it's alternative source of electro-power supply, PETROL. It would be really bad to get a second chance at it, and completely just wave it off.
And i believe these are some salient points that has led to the Nigerian government in taking a pause on the regulation of the cryptocurrency market in it's residing economy.
In a recent report, the Nigerian Security And Exchange Commission has come to the realization that they can not afford to ignore the $1.74 Trillion cryptomarket. And stated that it has been part of their desires to provide a regulatory framework to address the existing and rising challenges. And they see crypto as a vehicle to drive in foreign direct investment.
If all of these isn't just pillow talk of sweet nothings and more of a foreplay to stare up interest for foreign direct investment and all round development then there is a lot of blissful mornings to wake up to.
Bitcoin has already had a lot of mural paints on cathedral windows in Africa depicting epistles of testimonies kissed by God's grace, turning stories into success excel powerpoint slides.
And it's no doubt that it's hard fork token Bitcoin Cash has been following religiously in it's crusade. If you a citizen of noise.cash and read.cash you can already attest to such uplifts.
And with IOHK and Emurgo's SMART Africa initiative to be powered by Cardano, there is definitely a lot to look forward to.
In the hearts of Ethiopia, inspiration from Cardano's Atala PRISM has helped to birth a more advanced facial and ID recognition biometric system for the Ethiopian government. And as we await the start of Mary, Cardano's hard fork combinator and the goguen era both slated for a March release, a recent AMA session with Charles Hoskinson reveals that the IOHK company behind Cardano foundation has signed a memorandum to create a utility backed token for the Ethiopian government to allow for easier payment gateways for electricity bills and other utilities.
I do hope that the Nigerian government along with its SEC and Central Bank can see the possibilities that lie in wait for them if they can adopt an healthy use of cryptocurrency.
One of its very visible potentials in the nearest future is enjoying the Emurgo x Cardano ATALA PRISM framework identity recognition systems, along with the other perks to come with SMART Africa of which Nigeria is a candidate.
And it seems Binance Smart Chain, one of the most acclaimed crypto exchange and spot trading platform isn't trying to catch in late on this move. Binance Nigeria recently rolled out options to trade cryptocurrency against it's local currency Naira and access to make withdrawal directly to a Naira denominated bank account. But can't really say if it will stand the test of time as it might likely mirror a refraining image from the current Central Bank Of Nigeria rulings on cryptocurrency.
With DeFi platforms offering more farm yields to harvest in contrast to the low yield ROI(s) banks are offering, it would probably be a brain dead idea to sleep on it.
What are your thoughts on these though?.
Hmm, haven't got the slightest most current clue on the climate in India regarding cryptocurrency regulation. Last time i checked, there were talks on taking a review on it, hopefully it's in a good direction. And in view of the above, hopefully less restrain will be drawn from the crypto regulation in Nigeria.
We are already in the digital age, cryptocurrency and digital assets are inevitable to ignore, invariably the whole world is gonna have to bend the knee.
May Favour Find Us At The Right Bus Stop And May Grace Lift Us To Unimaginable Adventures
Everyday brings a livestream of experiences, which become happy-unforgettable memories or sad (would-gladly-forget-if-i-could) memories.
Every ticking seconds is a cricking foot step (against the odds) to unfolding a future of unimaginable possibilities. But often times than not, we standing in front of different mirrors with pathways to different realities.
And a lot of times it takes more than luck or wishful split second decisions to get you through the mirror to the other side.
Being an adult comes with its own labyrinth of responsibilities, worries and duty calls. It's easy to get completely overwhelmed when faced with life's twist and turns, which often makes us let loose all of our fears and worries to crash through our thoughts.
Thus inviting our minds eye to play cradle roll to balance the dinky uncontrollable darts of ball swipes between the what-if rhetoricals and why-me watermarks.
And undoubtly welcoming the anger games control over our joysticks, trapping our pyro phoenix-mocking jay synergy into surrender.
Rendering us into a defensive offensive action thriller pack-egy, that we forget the Walt Disney magic inside of us, to animate our own very colorful world of possibilities.
Imaginations create new realities, a cloud nine of happy thoughts untrapped in a bubble afloats myths through a rainstorm to a different realm of thinking.
A different thinking piston-starts an engine into working up new mechanics to rocket sling positive-i can possibilities into reality.
In a race of time, negative thoughts travel faster than beams of light rays and can easily be trapped in the dark for an eternity. Let your thoughts be arm strong, you are the pilot of your own reality, take the driver seat of your thoughts.
Control, control, control...
Shut your mind blank and explore nebulas of levels of mastery. A sip of tea to slightly barricade the sea of thoughts, a gentle anchor nudge to the crown of your head.
A kiss of a mehdi paint dart to the third eye, a zip line to the chest, navel and waist requiem-ed with mantras and echoed along with Tibbotian bell chimes.
And in the blankness of space, the screams become calm, and the battle field of thoughts become an organised mob of positive happy thoughts, cast molding swords to cut through realms of endless possibilities.
A smile travels a thousand miles, sends warmth down the minds and chills up the brains. A smile creates an open mind, that charters a course through a misty sea of endless waves of negativity. A smile cracks open a doorway to sparks of curiosity compassing possibilities into reality.
May our hearts always be open to new possibilities and lead us through maps of countless realities of adventures to tell.
And a happy Sunday to all who read here...
Eternals ~ The Battle For Olympus
It's no doubt that the two Aesir lords of the decentralized ecosystem is Bitcoin and Ethereum, with Bitcoin leading the pack.
As Bitcoin is revelled to NASDAQ so is Ethereum to silicon valley. It's no doubt that since 2017 Ethereum has been onboarding a lot of new nodes for creating portals to new in-play mechanics to easter egg unveil new cryptocurriences.
With the birth of these new vanir coins taking their seats in the hall of valhalla, there would likely be a long line of red tapes as nano delegations are billed to the task, to mint new blocks on the bifrost.
And like every myth comes archilles' heels of different sizes emanating from numerous heights. One of such leaking pumps is the issue of high gas fees burning deep into its use cases.
With such tides came the rise of Bitcoin tridents in the likes of Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin to ease up the bifrost link between valkries and dwalves, reducing the ferry man's fare.
And also came the spills of other chain technology faults such as scalability and interoperability, giving birth to the rise of the Jötunn $DOT and the giantess $ADA.
With this two, the journey to Ragnarok had long started since 2017 as both Titans have been scribbling a lot of Germanic scroll scripts to improve on the faults of Ethereum.
Both titans have always been outperforming theirselves in the Olympics, but it seems $DOT has always been earning more lightening bolt torches as to the laps tallied in by $ADA.
$DOT Manor has evidently given birth to more Vanir coins like Kusama and others and has arch-strated a lot of decentralized financial basilica like polkaswap.
$ADA on the other hand is a decentralized eco-pire designed non-governance consensus with very promising utility and use cases, with the lunch of it's Shelley feature it has sped up $ADA to the highest staking on-demand Deniro on Vegas strip, Circa 2021. And with the current catalyst fund 1, fund 2 and fund 3 phases to the Grand breaking Gladiatorial debut of the giantess Goguen headlining.
Bifrost will be beemed to Silicon Valley and other tech developers to build decentralized apps (dApps) around the Cardano communities of blockchains.
As in comparison to it's opposing running mate, $ADA is setting the stage to mint up new stable coins.
But here is one unique feature for $DOT is that it gives governance consensus to it's delegators to vote and validate the auction slot for its price, probably one of the reasons why it just light-speed raced through the $10 tarmack to its current baton exchange mark of $30 at as the time of this article.
And something promising about $ADA is that it's currently in a working phrase to lunch a protocol to invariably repair its self from any attacks. And come March the giantess $ADA will be debuting it's hard folk combinator birth-named Mary.
I would say to the Victor it's spoils...but the $ADA vs $DOT debut is no were near it's Ragnarok grand entry. And like they say it's either Victory or Valhalla.
In the meantime, the Viking Fashioned Rock Star Gene Simmons, the legendary KISS bass guitarist is plucking some harp strings to the $ADA Lovelace musical with $300,000.
And with the proof of Africa initiative already on-going, the $ADA network would likely rocket climb to the stars.
Who you think will beat it's successor to Ethereum 3.0? $ADA or $DOT...
Just this week, while this two gladiators where quaking through the arena, Binance Coin $BNB just shot straight pass them, beating $USDT to the third spot.
I guess those beefy finance derivatives are so Helen of Troy right now, with Vault powered proof of stakes and cropped up high farm yield harvest in return.
The saga continues, who you betting on, $ADA, $DOT or $ETH?
The papyrus paper below happily welcomes your ink and quill for answers if you would dare (laughs).

The Other Side Of The Coin ~ Heads Or Tails
Hmmm...
I don't know which day is the worst Happy Father's day or Happy Valentine's day. Ironically turns out to be a so-not-happy-day for most of the lots, a day where babymamas get reminded of the fact that the swimsuit donor ain't around? Or the day where single moms get the bitter-sweet memories of they divorce? Or a day where the heartbroken, once-upon-a-time helpless romantics are constantly reminded of the love lost.
The days are far sped off behind, but still the black eyes and mascara stained cheeks drifts to a forever reflection of the present.
Hollow hearts housing resentments, vacant of love. Where darkness puts the do not disturb sign, chasing off excitement and creativity.
Where the pen says to paper, within lies so many thoughts but i can't find ink to put in the right words. Where the heart screams for inspiration but the brain is just about ready to retire.
Have you ever felt uninspired to write? But yet you know you have to, because a part of your dream's marathon lies along your race track to accomplishing your goals.
Been looking around this beautiful beautiful creative community and i tend to think a lot of people are not as overly pumped as usual with that creative juice to draw up a mindblowing or brain shattering piece.
There are numerous reasons why this could be...could it be that you still trying to recover from the grief memory of this great month of love (as it is so eloquently put)?
Well if you in that showboat, you probably not paddling alone. But here is a quick way to get back to the harbour.
Find the passion that got you to write in the first place. I'm not trying to call the kettle black, but let's face it, majority of the reason why we want to write in this platform in the first place, was to be able to round up some bit of earnings on the side to assist with our day jobs, to get by the day or just as a source to create passive income for ourselves.
Those are just summed up surface meanings undercovering the real WHY(s) which have a whole lot of sentimental values to ourselves. It could be a college student trying to get extra money to take care of his or her college prerequisites, a single mom trying to put food on the table and a smile on a kid's face, a father trying to get the stage props to play his role or just someone trying to get financial freedom.
Let your WHY ignite a spark and rekindle the fire within you to find the passion you need to get that boost again. Like a fat kid loves cake, fall back in love with your passion.
If it's your passion to write, the words will definitely walk down the isle, jump the broom stick and come back to you, but if writing wasn't your passion in the first place and was just in only for the potential possibility of earning money, then you need a rehab.
I say rehab in the sense of, you may need to go back into the foetus and be reborn, you need to go on a self finding journey to learn to redirect your passion to writing.
You need to be passionate about writing first in other to get through to the bag. Or you might as well had already put a gag in it before even starting.
What are the chances that you overpressuring yourself?
Do you give yourself a deadline and a to-do list of atleast 2-3 posts a day? If you do, then the chances that you overpressuring yourself is yes.
I know what it's like to set a deadline to complete a task. You get all pressured up to conjur out of the blue new ideas every ticking seconds, with every tick sounding like a countdown to a you-are-fired time bomb.
Setting a goal to write one or two articles a day it's totally amazing, but it doesn't come without pressure. It's definitely a very demanding task which will demand a lot of creativity from you. The brain is a-okay but damn it can't be smart all the time without a few shotdowns.
Such actions will lead to overthinking everything and clogging your brains with too much information. Too much information is brain cells going kabloom, and all of that implosion leads to stress. Stress and creativity don't go together, and nothing astounding will come from it.
Take sometime off, watch a movie, listen to music, jog a lap, take a walk and let your mind breathe.
Meditate, clear your mind...easier said than done, but with practice it's possible.
Ever heard of the saying, a good writer does more reading than writing?
Do a few light reading and some brilliance might just struck.
Still having difficulty?
Do you have sorta little short lived memoirs of brilliance? What if i told you, you could put all of those beautiful thoughts into a finished master print.
Write down every little bit of wonky, plain stupid or good idea into a journal. And after awhile (probably at night or the next day), skim through and you might be able to scrabble up some sense out of the rubic cube.
Often times than most, the topic makes the first form but still the body of the content is still opaque and unknown (probably every writer's nightmare). Build a structure of linking ideas into paragraphs themed with specific purposes and you got a finished piece.
Let's suppose you intend on writing a how to post, you do have to think of a catchy topic phrase, arraign an arch-structure of a content rich summary of the DIY problem in question, identify the problem (or perceived problem) in question, apply some real life applications to the problem in question and you recommend a possible list of solutions. And boom you have an article.
Another joy kill to getting your passion back to writing is when you too much in pursuit for an SEO rich-google page ranking-keyword densed content, it takes out the fun and just leaves the shell of a mechanical bot in it's place. knocking out the fun, creativity and the excitement begins to crawl off little by little. And before you know it, you lose all sense of passion.
The key is to remember your WHY, and to bring your A-game determination and commitment to the table. Don't be the barbeque grill chef who tolls all day for the perfect thanksgiving turkey and ends up missing out on the dinner.
Remember to have fun.
Thanks for reading, see you in my next post.

Crypto Love ~ The Chips Are Down, Hold The Line x Do Not Sell
*Troopers fall into formation, hold the line! hold the line!!, shields! shields up!! hoooooold!!!, hold the line, do not break formation*.
**...Is it just me or has this been one of the most celebrated Valentine's day ever?**
This February 14, 2021 has most undoubtedly been the most celebrated one yet. It goes beyond just the celebration of love, but the sustained and lasting affection that was able to survive the Corona virus outbreak.
This is definitely a huge memorabilia for married couples, spouses in relationships and even families. Correct me if i'm wrong but this tends to be kind of like a one year anniversary of staying perfectly healthy and together with your spouse, family and friends right?
I'm no biologist but i can tell you such memories evoke a lot of expressive emotions and hormonal-sentimental feelings craving for an outburst. Even the crypto market is feeling the vibe, you can see it constantly giving the red light signals in the districts.
Hence the retail hive, on other days i would of said control your emotions and get a handle of your impulse buying but not this time. A wise man once said it's in the midst of grief that's when we find unity and love, even with the social distancing, people haven't been more closer than ever in this trying times.
*There is this saying that you shouldn't have to wait for this one day of the year to show love. Everyday is a celebration of love if you in the right relationship, but hey, you definitely earned this one day off this time around*.
This Febrero, isn't just a celebration of love, it's also a celebration of life and the appreciation for the love that we got.
Though grief might have taken lease in your heart one way or the other, love definitely opened a window. **Love isn't just about the exchange of affections by spouses or couples it's the celebration of the little things you invariably love and cherish**.
**So it's okay if the market is currently in the reds**. With the recently celebrated Chinese lunar new year celebration closely confetti-followed by the Valentines day, *it's logical for the market to go through a slight correction or healthy retraction*.
Before getting all emotional on your blockfolio, you should know that as a result of the exchange of love there also had to be some exchange of crypto into fiat currencies.
With such events, there is always a significant hike in retail activities and in turn the crypto market takes a little blow to the cheek. **So don't chicken out**, *by playing your weak hands and selling off all your aces.*
Brace yourselves, embrace the little monumental retraction, pull the brakes on your sell options. Things are about to get all green.
So to all the BCHian Army, Bitcoineers and Cardanian militias out there in the field hold those lines.
Special thanks to all of the BCH enthusiasts like `@Eirolfeam2` and others on both read.cash and noise.cash that are constantly spreading the awareness of Bitcoin Cash, Just know you doing a great job and the BCH community loves and appreciate all that you do.
And a very warm heart felt applauds to `@leejhen` and `@bmjc98` for their show of love through the **Give A Smile To A Kid Project** and the **BCH Charity Box**.
Just read through @Rosellie's (the second beneficiary of The BCH Charity Box) Goal reached post and seeing the reaction of @Gerl for being the first beneficiary for The Give A Smile To A Kid makes me love and appreciate both read.cash and noise.cash platform even a lot more. https://read.cash/@rosellie/goal-reached-714aeb98 https://read.cash/@gerl/leejhens-bch-project-i-have-chosen-and-im-grateful-b4459205

Build Your A$$et Column ~ Microfine$$e Your Way To Your Dream Goal
*The quickest way to double your money is to fold it over and put it back in your pocket -- Will Roger*
So i was reading through `@eommaZel's` post 'It is not how much we earn that counts but how much we can save' and this idea you reading struck... https://read.cash/@eommaZel/it-is-not-how-much-we-earn-that-counts-but-what-we-can-save-ebb9f088
**Is there a difference between savings and investment?**
People tend to use these two words relatively but both words have entirely distinctive meanings.
I like to think that saving is just something you put aside as against any emergency. While investment, is an upshot of savings, investment is putting your money to work for you.
It's not just putting money aside as an insurance cover against emergencies, it's using your money as a platform to earn more money. *It's like employing every dollar bill you got and sending it out to recruit more Ty-dolla $igns for you*.
**Money doesn't make you rich, your financial intelligence does -- Robert Kiyosaki.**
*The rich invest their money and spend what is left and the poor spend their money and save what is left.*
Often times there really isn't much to save after your salaried income has been slashed to 50% after tax, then the utility bills and credit card debt repayments follow, and you left with nothing to save.
The key is to pay yourself first.
And how do you achieve this? **It's by investing, investing and investing, if i had all the time in the world, i would keep re-writing investing just to amplify the relevance of it.**
But before going further i think it would be great to quickly talk about asset and liabilities.
This is more or less inspired by `@MarcDeMesel`'s 1x Tesla Model 3 car now cheaper than 1 BTC, What do you prefer to get as a gift though? post on noise.cash. https://noise.cash/post/lzwq2jmv
Was reading through the comments and it kind of got me thinking.
**Would i really want to go for a car? Or would i rather opt for 1 BTC (Bitcoin) instead**.
And like that boom, the word assets and liabilities mirrored into my mind.
**Simply put asset is something that puts money in your pocket and liability is something that takes money out of your pocket.**
And with that vision clear in mind, i'm resolving to go with 1 BTC, it's so obvious right?
Well if it's still stains on the mirror for you, then look at it this way...
Getting the car comes with uninvited expenses, the party pupper, the ones who come unannounced and crash the party -- i'm talking repairs and if i'm not mistaken it would definitely add some fraction to your tax, and thus classifies it as liability.
On the other hand 1 BTC doesn't just add more to your pocket as liquidated price appreciation, it also creates a platform for you to double your money through investment- *that's cashflow, letting your money work for you*.
And with all things equal, need i mention that you on a platform that earns you Bitcoin Cash and helps everyday people with everyday problems.
I want to believe that `@bmjc98`'s argument that you can't really spread BCH Awareness and onboard more users to adopt BCH without educating them about the earning potentials on read.cash is logically very sound. https://read.cash/@bmjc98/spread-bch-spread-love-spread-kindness-to-everyone-e2c17039
I mean people are more drawn to opportunities that will give them earning privileges.
So there is really no point of limiting the use case abilities of BCH's whitepaper potentials.
Ok, before i totally got off track...
If you have been using read.cash or noise.cash for awhile now you can attest to the tips and earnings right?
I'm just a month young on read.cash and i can tell you how many testimonials i have read, well i can't really count, they are numerous.
And i must applaud `@Leejhen`'s Give A Smile To A Kid program and `@bmjc98`'s BCH Charity Box --**these are already ways that are literally impacting lifes.** https://read.cash/@leejhen/bitcoin-cash-on-the-movegive-a-smile-to-a-kid-7df95f95 https://read.cash/@bmjc98/the-bch-charity-box-4th-week-2a30d762
You may not be a beneficiary of these awesome charity initiatives but you could also gift yourself the same opportunity.
How?
Simple by turning every microbits of Satoshi (hopefully i'm right, i mean can't really tell if it has the same substrate derivative as Bitcoin) or cents you earn from good ole rusty (you may know him, her or it as `@theRandomRewarder`) into a four wall desk earning recruiter for more $$$.
By...
Hodling, **It's like picking a penny stock option and riding it out till it becomes a blue chip stock. Like when Bitcoin flagged off not everyone ever believed it would be performing better than any S & P 500 stock index right?**
***But today look where it's at. And with MasterCard about to roll out an option of transacting directly with crypto, the sky may not even have enough room to contain it's growth potential.***
And besides just hodling Bitcoin Cash for it's price appreciation, did you know you could even go proof of work protocol on it, i mean you can mine it.
I'm currently running a test run with Bitcoin Cash mining on BCHJolly, i'm sorta waiting to see how it goes though. https://bchjolly.com/?affiliate=d50eb35de0262c000ab0d1274d773e3b
And did you also know that you can autocompound your Bitcoin Cash into daily interest on Nexo?

Net Worth ~ Health, Passive Income And A Flexible Lifestyle
**Your job isn't to make money, it's to find a problem that needs solving--Robert Kiyosaki.**
*Love what you do and it will never look like a job*. What if you could convert your passion into a platform for helping people and at the same time creating a pathway to a future of sunny holidays at an oceanfront condo with a beach side view.
Feets on the beach, capri pants, glass of exotic cocktail, a bikini clad perfectly tanned girlfriend, and a relaxing afternoon.
Too cheesy? Probably not.
So, i was reading up `@realkimmy's` post stop inviting people to earn money. Probably ironic right? https://read.cash/@realkimmy/stop-inviting-people-to-earn-money-b01c2b47
But hold that thought, will come back to that...
Though ironic, but it's the base of her argument that got me thinking.
She is of the opinion that *rather than just see read.cash and noise.cash as a money making platform, it should be seen as a community to promote Bitcoin Cash awareness and redirect the energy towards encouraging more adoption of Bitcoin Cash*.
Ok so where i'm are going with this?
I will answer by asking a question...
**Have you ever thought about owning your own business?**
*If i could get you some information about a home-based business that was really working and you could really succeed at it, would it be in your best interest to learn more?*
If your answer is yes, then you will want to read this all through to the end.
This brings me to my next question.
**Are you familiar with the term network marketing?**
Network marketing or multi-level marketing is a business model adopted by a company to encourage existing distributors to recruit more distributors to earn as much as their efforts can carry.
And NEOLife international is one of such companies. NEOLife international is a multi-level company that cuts around health and wellness products (especially nutritional supplements), beauty and skin care products, and house cleaning products.
It doesn't just create a platform to arm people with health information, retail people to beauty-care and health solutions, but also gives people an opportunity to earn an income.
...can't remember if it was Steve Forbes, Steve Jobs or Warren Buffett that said--*if you want to have your own business, you need to have big dream(s), $10 million, a product or service and a problem to solve*.
Well do you have $10 million right now in your pocket, i'm guessing that's a NO.
But do you have a dream, i'm going to just guess that the answer is YES.
But what if you can buy your way into a franchise, get the products, sell them, earn a profit, recruit a team and earn even more with your team.
Kind of sounds cool, right?
So, how does it work?
Let's suppose Jimmy got invited to the network by Ortiz, and Jimmy becomes a member (a starting distributors) and he invites Kimmy, Manny, Alexa Mae and Julian. And they all have 100 PV (point value) each, Jimmy inclusive--that in turn boosts the entire group point value (QPV). Jimmy becomes a manager.
And Kimmy goes on ahead to invite Benny, Sarah, Franklin and Giselle; Manny invites Mary, Cynthia, Peter and Jay; Alexa Mae invites Lana, Arianna, Donna and Jack; and Julian invites Frankie, Julie, Sally and Oleg.
Again all new invites with 100 PV each, this totals the QPV bounce up to...ok let's simmer down the math into little fractions first.
Ok so Jimmy invites Kimmy, Manny, Alexa Mae and Julian that totals up to 400 QPV and with Jimmy's 100 PV it becomes 500 QPV.
And Kimmy's invites totals 400 QPV, Manny's invites totals 400 QPV, Alexa Mae's invites totals 400 QPV and Julian's invites totals 400 QPV.
So Kimmy's group point becomes 500 QPV, Manny's group point becomes 500 QPV, Alexa Mae's group point becomes 500 QPV and Julian's group point becomes 500 QPV--that makes it 2000 plus Jimmy's 100 PPV (personal point value), it becomes 2100 QPV.
This bounces Jimmy from Manager to senior manager; Kimmy, Manny, Alexa Mae and Julian all become Managers.
And the cycle continues and all of Kimmy's, Manny's, Alexa Mae's and Julian's downlines invites a couple of more people in the multiples of 4s that bounces the total to 4200 QPV.
This bounces Jimmy to Director, and in turn bounces Kimmy, Manny, Alexa Mae and Julian to Senior Managers and their immediate downlines to Managers.
The ladder of success goes on further to Emerald Director, Sapphire Director, 5 Ruby Directors all the way to the 5 diamond directors.
Statutorily, to be a manager all you need is 250 QPV, senior manager 500 QPV and director 1000 QPV with each having a 0 to let's say for the purpose of this presentation $1500.
So just imagine if instead of 500 QPV you get 750 QPV you earn more, and instead of 1000 QPV you get 1200 QPV you earn more extra.
It isn't all that alone, it also comes with additional perks and benefits like higher salaries at every level of your ascend up the success ladder.
It also comes with all expense paid local and international travels.
But here is the thing though, even if you upgrade past the starting distributor to manager level and then on to the other levels, to earn income monthly you have to tally in a minimum of 100 PPV every month.
The cool side of it is whenever you step up you have the opportunity to earn more and there isn't a thing about a descend down the ladder.
So it all boils back to using the product, sharing the product, and sharing the opportunity.
Do you know this opportunity is available in 42+ countries.
**United States, South Africa, Mexico, France, Italy, Philippines, Tanzanian, Nigeria, Canada, Sweden, Ghana, Togo, Japan, Uganda, Kenya, Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, Cameroon, Côte D'Ivorie, Estonia, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Ireland, United Kingdom, Austria, Germany, Hungary, Romania, Spain, Switzerland, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Slovenia, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore**.

Umbrella Corp X Resident Evil
Why do apex or central banks chart down ROI yields on investments then get all mad about an asset class that offers something different.
Isn't it messed up that the unemployment rate is always reaching for a new all time high every second, and Govs trying to slam down alternative and proven earning opportunities.
Isn't it funny that the so-called elites of the society are trying to shot down crime but are literally project-commissioning-ribbon-cutting pathways to increase crime.
On January 6, 2021 the hammer came down hard on the UK cryptocurrency trading and exchange trading notes community.
And in suit, dear old Nigeria it's defunct colony joined in, throwing a not so cupid arrow through the hearts of it's crypto loving community.
Just a couple of days ago, the Central Bank of Nigeria rolled out a memo to all financial institutions and individuals alike inciting a ban on cryptocurrency trading and threats to close up any account holdings associated with cryptocurrency trading and it's derivatives.
With a country still slowly trying to recover from the lockdown effects that literally wheeled to haunt the already dying economy, this will definitely be another blow to the chest.
It's probably going to be a cold out-bleeding heart valentine this year especially for those hodling till death do us apart crypto-bitcoin loving fans out there...
This is more of a monkey see monkey do situation...which begs the question, why copy and paste an administrative move with already working good social welfare blueprint structures in place, and yours is no where close to par.
How do you compare the distribution of stimulus checks valued at $1,400 to that of a distribution of palliative with a face value of 5,000 NGN. With an inversely proportional USD overturn of the exchange pair equating right around $10.
...how could one survive with that?
Even with food stamps and coupons, that won't cut through one day's grocery cart away trip.
And with inflation always in the fabric of things, you can almost tell the ugly details in the designs.
With constantly growing embellished patterns for a crave for over the border food produce as compared to local produce, dilapidated oil refineries forcing a deficit on budgets to house the financing of transportation of barrels of oil over borders for refining and back. And the house of senates and representatives having misplaced priorities, the dreams of the future is slowly receding back to the dark side of the moon.
It's funny how these people can't see passed their pockets and hidden away starched escrow accounts.
How do you argue with a good idea like crypto? You can't.
You could try but at the end you had see what's been in your face all the time.
How do you turn a blind eye to a problem solving solution that can tune down unemployment, juvenile deliciency, fraud and crime.
How can you alleviate poverty when you can't elevate policies and opportunities to drive home the self-empowerment dream you preach.
Will all of that always be a speech to a dream that you will never push to reality just cause you can't relate to the nightmares of the below the $1 poverty line stricken citizens.
How do you dress the glamorizing of e-fraudsters as the new normal. Is that even moral to begin with.
These days, a whole lot of youths are indulging hugely on defrauding innocent people online, offline on phone line, and this same people are been idolized as role models.
The apple does fall far from the tree, with corrupt statutory bodies in position of power carting away with money, you probably can't expect less.
Cryptocurrency is an escape from such lifestyle for youths, it has helped to create a source of income earning opportunity for well meaning minded Nigerians and still will from generations and generations to come if digital assets still tarries.
A year off school while waiting for school heads to come up with proper safety precaution guidelines to curb off the covid-19 virus has seen youths ride out into entreprenuering ventures, not leaving cryptocurrency out.
How can you shot down an earning opportunity to such demography? Knowing fully well that even when a handful of them graduate they might likely not get a desk job in a year range of 5-10 years...and that's a fact.
The already working class ain't ready to get laid off, will lie they ass off in respect to their age if they have to just so they can crunch up more digits for their retirement savings, 401Ks and pension financing.
The drive for other alternatives for earning income have never been more important than now, the Corona virus impact definitely made sure of that.
Take away the chance to better their lifes with crypto and you might just as well handed them a loaded gun to go on about robbing, kidnapping and wrecking terror on the society.
Hopefully that's not where the road leads as we await finer prints of the memo.
...this news couldn't have come in a more bad time as this, when even more adoption of cryptocurrency in Africa has began to onboard more members into it's fold.
With Bitcoin and Ethereum high on mining and gas fees, more eyes are shifting to other altcoins like Litecoin (LTC), Bitcoin cash (BCH), Tron (TRX), Cardano (ADA) and Polkadot (DOT).
However with thanks to decentralized financing options gifting staked token holders rewards increased the adoption of TRX in these corner of the world.
And off course you can't forget Bitcoin Cash giving the opportunity to earn tokenized tips from writing articles on sites like read.cash and it's social media compadre noise.cash. http://read.cash http://noise.cash
So why shot down something good? If all you giving back is close to zero percent yields of interest on returns from Treasury Bills, Certificates of Deposits, ETFs, mutual funds and bonds. With such rates commercial banks MoM APR % savings returns look even more desirable.

Reflections ~ The Law Of Attraction x Mirror Neurons
Looking beautiful isn't something that is entirely dependent on your physical appearance it begins from your mental state of mind.
How do you see yourself? Do you see yourself as beautiful? Or do you see yourself as below average?
*How you see yourself matters alot, your self reflection becomes the perception your mind interprets. It's this interpretation your appearance acts on and displays to the world around you.*
Can you walk into a room and literally just steal the spotlight? Or will you just be completely invisible like a wall flower?
That's probably too attention seeking or self validation from people trolling.
Do you look yourself up in the mirror and just totally adore yourself? Or do you look at the mirror and just talk down about yourself?.
**No one can tell you how to feel, only you can tell yourself how to feel. Seeking gratification from tones of people is a plus but not necessarily a measure to use to value yourself.**
Many people let the perfectly photoshopped grimey media lifes of top knotch celebs and influencers dictate how they perceive their self image.
If self image was all about like counts, then a whole lot of us would probably be living fake lives and constantly breaking the bank to buy hearts and like credits.
Love yourself for who you are and everything will be alright with the world around you.
There is power in the tongue and within lies the power of self love and self destruction.
Do you use positive words? Or do you use negative words?
I know the world can't always be pretty all the time, but learn to cultivate the habit of seeing positivity in everything. The mind is very receptive and adopts quickly, feed it with positive imagery and it will portrait the same picture.
Say cheese!!!...
Like every photographer desiring to create happy feelings from the in-front-of-the-camera subject, so does your subconscious mind craves for mind blowing imagery to carousel to the world around you.
Self love begins with a positive self image of yourself and positive thinking.
It's probably a highly toxic wine to swallow especially when you feel low or depressed, having issues either from your finance or your fiancee.
...i feel like those are the two most powerful derivatives that can question your self image, esteem and confidence.
And then there is society and standards, it's funny that a lot of standard is placed on beauty and elegance...well honestly speaking it's more on beauty, elegance is pretty much on privilege.
But this quote by Victoria Beckham which says--"*I read once that elegance is a privilege of age. I thought, that's so true. You get more comfortable with yourself as you get older*" have me pretty much rethinking my stand a little bit.
So for the sake of less debate let's just summate beauty and elegance to looking pretty beautiful.
Feeling and looking beautiful is a state of mind, it begins from your mental frame of how you see yourself. How do you picture yourself? How do you perceive your outlook? What culminates happiness to you?
Do you see yourself in a positive light? Do you feel happy about your self image? Are you confident about your looks?
No one can answer this for you, except you. Answering alone is half the job, you also have to believe it in order to truly manifest your glorious and beautiful self.
You are your own chaffeur, you have the power to control your thoughts. The road to a happy life is taking a ride on the positive attitude of thinking.
Gratitude and appreciation are important elements to brighten your emotions, and emotions power up the mind. You are entirely in control of everything that happens to you.
Appreciate the little things and everything about yourself.
**You attract what you reflect...mirror self confidence and the world will love you for it, mirror low self image and the world will walk pass you like you just invisible**.
Beauty begins from the mind before it reflects on the physical body.
Perfection is as immortality, the drive to attain it is more of a day-dream but not necessarily a lost course.
Feeling beautiful can always be improved on if you choose to. I'm not talking surface defining moments like easy fix of palettes of colours, manis and pedis or mask treatments.
I mean weight management or weight reduction plans. Theoretically speaking, our joys and depressions hang unevenly on our weight.
And this boils down to how scalable our body weights.
Do you feel the need or challenge to improve on your body to feel more confident about yourself? Are you a little bit or all the way unhappy about your weight?
Here is a recommendation for you...but before i go into it. It is important that you know this, a good weight management plan begins with a system flush and proper body metabolic response.
I wrote a piece on metabolic body reaction in a previous entry, if you had like to read on that, visit this link. https://read.cash/@danireid/3000-miles-to-graceland-population-372-trillion-healthy-cells-6c093e8c
A proper body metabolic response helps to promote good weight management or reduction.
Ok, let's get back to my recommendation...
Have you tried NEOLife NutriShake?
NEOLife NutriShake is a NEOLife international nutritional supplement shake packed with whey protein powder containing all 22 amino acids, fibre, soya, oat and guar, vitamins, minerals, plant-derived enzymes and whole-food antioxidants.
**...how well do you know your biology?**
Study suggests that supplementing amino acids with weight loss helps to accelerate fat burns, boost work out performance and supports muscle development. And with whey protein it also promotes development of lean muscle mass and it reduces cholesterol.
According to a study in Nutrition and metabolism people with body fat were seen to lose more significant amount of body fat and showed great preservation of lean muscles. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2289832/
Ok enough Biology 101 (laughs)...
NEOLife NutriShake comes in 3 different flavored varieties; chocolate, strawberry and vanilla.
And it promotes a metabolic balance of ideal protein, carbohydrate to fat ratio, plus has a controlled glycaemic response (*it minimises fat storage and promotes fat burning*).
**Serving Recommendation...**
Two scoops of NEOLife NutriShake between a workout and a meal, it could be before a workout then meal or after a workout then meal. But in my own opinion i think it will be more effective as a post workout meal plan. And it should be within a 30 minutes break timeframe.
But if you feeling adventurous, you might want to combine it with NEOLife Tea as a replacement for breakfast...you might likely not feel the urge to eat till lunch but if you do, an in between healthy snack could be your dessert option.
I do however, highly doubt you may be requesting for that in between meal dessert snack cause both nutritional supplements gives you a feature of the exact measure of carbohydrate and protein which helps to stop the crave for overeating.
If you want to get any of the mentioned nutritional supplements, be it NEOLife NutriShake or NEOLife tea you can find it here. http://shopneolife.com/danireid
Following through on that link will send you to a NEOLife customized web storefront landing page, and you may or may not see the desired products in the landing page. Quick fix to that is hit the search bar and type in the search string of your choice 'NEOLife NutriShake' or 'NEOLife Tea' but before this you will be required to sign up.
*Mental exercises, positive affirmations and nutritional supplements alone with not do the trick you might want to aid this beautiful transformational shift with some work out exercises*.
Mind you it doesn't have to be resistance-conditioning-push the NFL dummy the whole nine yard standard, it can just be a breeze.
Breeze like running a lap on the treadmill, stretching it out with kettlebells or backstroking through a pool.
Reflect positive mirror neurons and attract the energy you seek.
Feel better, look better and live better.
