Hello read.cash people. My October report has been waiting to be written for a good few days now. Between Axie Infinity, dancing salsa and caring for Alfie I had not much time to write again. Last night I played axie in the evening and since the reset time for energy is midnight, I decided to do 2 'shifts' in 1 evening/night, so I can have some time for other things today.
Let me start with a bit of gratitude for having amazing friends. These beautiful roses I received from my friend, Helen when she last visited me. I thought they need a special mention here, since I used a picture of them as my lead image. Aren't they gorgeous? I feel so blessed for having friends, who know what I love.
October in noise.cash
Now let me dive into my actual earnings for this month. My noise.cash earnings for October turned out to be very similar to the month before. I accumulated $79.57 (comparing to $77.58 in September). Although with the current price of BCH this month which is much higher than last month, the equivalent of this in BCH it 0.135 as opposed to 0.152 last month. The amount is also similar to the month before, so I guess I developed a steady average for my noise.cash account.
I know most people celebrate when BCH goes high and worry when price goes down, but for me it's quite the opposite. I like it when BCH is low, because I earn more BCH then. I guess if others are withdrawing their earnings as they go it is different for them. I myself still haven't withdrew any of my crypto to FIAT. I like to hoard it and do some SmartBCH trading.
Last month in read.cash
If you read my September summary article you will know I kinda gave up on monetary goals for read.cash and just take each months earnings as they come. In October I wrote only 8 articles with a total of $54.17. Average per article as well as total amount earned here is dropping every month, but if I am being honest, I am nowhere near as active here as I used to be, so it's understandable. Needless to say that my read.cash jewellery is also gone. Last time I checked I was number 88.
Sad thing happening is that I noticed that someone is downvoting my articles regularly. I have my suspicion of who's bruised ego it is, but I am not planning to lower myself to such a petty level and do the same back to them. Just sad to see that.
October brings more BCH!
New source of income in October is of course my AxieBCH scholarship. I wrote all about the first payment (0.125BCH)and also explained how I play Axie Infinity here. I can say the second payment is already higher than the first one, but I will of course include it in my November report.
In AxieBCH guild we get paid every 2 weeks, so double the above amount and I have a nice extra BCH amount to play with every month. I am very happy and grateful for this amazing opportunity. Great news is that SLP price is going up these days, since new bridge has opened, which is a great news for all of us who play Axie Infinity and earn SLP.
My portfolio is expanding
I amassed quite a huge amount of different tokens in my MM wallet. At first I used to write down all BCH I transferred to MM to keep track of my investments, but I later I wasn't keeping track of it so well, so I had no idea just how much money do I actually have there.
Earlier this month I decided to create spreadsheets for all my crypto holdings. I wish Metamask would show a total amount in $ of all the tokens I hold there with the current prices, which would make my life easier, but for the time being spreadsheets will have to do.
I was surprised to see that my portfolio is already worth 1.96 BCH, although my actual BCH makes up for only around quarter of it. It is always interesting for me to see the graphic representation of my assets.
I still hold (and farm) a lot of EBEN. It was my first SmartBCH investment and I didn't learn to take profit yet, so majority of it is still in tact. I did some trading in between and I can say for sure that my dogs made me some handsome $, but I'm unsure just how much to be honest.
Another new addition in October
As I wrap up this article, I realised I have one more asset which I haven't added to my portfolio above. I have minted 3 LawPunks!
Minting price of these was 0.01BCH if I remember well. As I looked on their market place, the lowest price for these is currently 0.08BCH. We have been advised not to sell these for about a year though, as expected floor price for these would reach 0.2BCH per common LawPunk. This turned out to be quite great investment too. I wish I minted more of these, as I could stand a higher chance of minting more rare Punks, which go for even 6BCH! Oh well, we live and learn, don't we?
At the current price that's another 0.24BCH, which brings my portfolio to a round 2.20BCH.
Not bad at all for a noob like me in my first half a year in crypto world!
October total
All in all I can say that October has been a good month for me. A total of what I earned last month from noise.cash, read.cash and Axie Infinity comes to around 0.36BCH, which I am well happy with. I most likely earned more also from trading, but I will not include this in my total. Total BCH from these 3 sources will be easy enough for me to compare my earnings from month to month, so I will continue with this format.
That's it for today. Now it's time to see my friend Nunzia and salsa later on!
Until next time 💙
This can be an inspiration for me going forward, a very interesting discussion. I think people like this should be exemplified in a very concrete way bch can develop and become capital. Many people can get good results from their work, but it is very rare to publish this very good friend. inspiration for many. good job, thank you👍
