My Hive Goals - Weekly Update 11 It is week 11 already and 7 days have passed since the last update. I have made 122 posts so far. I have been posting under the LeoFinance and WeAreAlive tribes as they are the areas that interest me the most. I have decided to try and simplify my goals for this week. I think I was a little too detailed previously and now it should be more clearer and interesting to follow. I had a 25,57% increase in Hive Power this week which brings me…

Sneak Peak: I will be releasing my Crypto Earnings report for March tomorrow. Will it be better than February?

@mypathtofire

My Crypto Earnings in March Another month is completed and as part of my journey towards 2ETH per month, I am tracking my monthly crypto earnings. This is a diary for me to record my progress, track everything and hopefully optimise the strategies. I hope also this will be useful for those also interested in creating a crypto income. This month I have been active in the following platforms and collected the cryptos: ****Blogging**** Publish0x (STA, AMPL) Hive (Hive, LEO,…

Protect Your Crypto Portfolio From NLP It is well known that the Controllers use NLP against us and that this can cause us to make irrational moves with our portfolio. NLP or Neurolinguistic Programming is according to the Collins dictionary a therapy designed to alter behaviour by reprogramming unconscious patterns of thought. NLP is very effective because we do not equip our children with the tools of discernment and instead allow them to be bewildered and teach them to…

After a very strong build-up, #Hive has been correcting hard today.

@mypathtofire

The Hive Position Of F*** You! The traditional position of F you as elaborated on by Jon Goodman in The Gambler states that you need to get up to $2.5M, buy a house with a 25-year mortgage and buy an indestructible Japanese economy car. You put the rest into the system paying 3-5% to pay your taxes and that's your base, that's your fortress of solitude. That puts you at a level for the rest of your life of F you! This would allow you to be free and not feel the need to do…

Hive seems to be weakening against BTC.. no signs of a trend reversal yet.

@mypathtofire

My Hive Goals - Weekly Update 12 It is week 12 and 7 days have passed since the last update. I have made 137 (+15) posts so far. I have been posting under the LeoFinance and WeAreAlive tribes as they are the areas that interest me the most. March is now passed and it's time to check how I am doing against my monthly and yearly goals. I am going to set quarterly goals going forward as monthly goals are too short. Quarterly and Yearly should be good lengths of time to use. I…

@mypathtofire

In the space of 3 days, #Hive has touched back towards $1 with an almost 9% fall overnight

@mypathtofire

Hi Noisers, After holding steady all week, #BitcoinCash moves down with the crypto market as a whole around -6%.. but is still up around +20% on the month. New BCH article coming soon.

@mypathtofire

BTC/Hive markets are pretty thin, this means there is a lot of volatility right now and the price is ready to move #hive #btc

@mypathtofire

Lots of #Hive liquidity about, the price is going to continue going down.

Ethereum Performance Review - Hodl Mode On With the upcoming merge to Ethereum 2.0, Ethereum is the crypto on everyone's mind right now. After totally smashing it, performance-wise last year, there are some big expectations for Ethereum this year. Once a month I like to take a look at one of the top boys in my portfolio and see how they are doing. So let's dive in. We can see that compared to last month where we were down -21% YTD, we've had a nice pullback but are still…

@mypathtofire

#Hive continues falling strongly below $1 level.. support on the exchanges seems weak right now. It could be an overreaction. Let's see

@mypathtofire

Another big move down in #hive in the last 24 hours. But it seems to have found some resistance now

@mypathtofire

Buying My First NFT On Hive Today I purchased my first NFT. I originally thought I would buy my first NFT on Opensea as they have a huge collection there and the Apes and Cyberpunks are really popular. But in the end, I opted for a HivePunk! As you can see, I've already updated my profile picture to the new NFT. His name is Ben Moody, but now it is mine, Steve Hodl. I was originally searching for a Hive Punk that smoked too (I know it's bad for you), but you cant get lung…

@mypathtofire

The HBD/HIVE ratio increases due to decreases in HIVE price. So in such a case, the virtual supply will be more, so that will make the blockchain print more new HIVE tokens.

@mypathtofire

Bitcoin Performance Review Another month has passed and it's time to review the performance of Bitcoin. There's a lot to get through, so let's get started. First of all, year to date we are still slightly down. As you can see in the chart, we have had a couple of big dips, but they have quickly recovered. As you can see from the table I created, it won't take anything for Bitcoin to recover from here and move into positive territory. In the trailing 30 days, we can see that…

@mypathtofire

After initially showing some resistance, #Hive now approaching the buy zone after a sharp fall in the last hour.

@mypathtofire

Is anyone invested in Chainlink #Link ? The 1-year chart with -50% doesn't look so great!

@mypathtofire

LEO - Time To Dive In With the news that the LeoFinance team are expanding their team and turning its focus to improving the LeoFinance community, is now the time to grab as much LEO as you can? The first move by the team is to reinvest ad revenue generated into the LEO token rewards. It was estimated at around $4k per month, so around $48k per year! That's a very nice demand created for the LEO token. Looking at the current price on LeoDex, are we going to see this low…

The Great Wall of Ontario Canada With the mainstream media going full tilt banging out war propaganda, going unnoticed are the developments in Canada and the EU. Canada has given up the pledge made by its leader to spread freedom and democracy around the world to now removing the freedoms of its own citizens. With the new Canadian regulations regarding holding crypto, many exchanges are now adding Ontario to their list of restricted jurisdictions. The ability to own crypto,…

With the move to 20% on HBD. Do you think the $1 peg will hold? #hive #hbd

@mypathtofire

With HBD paying 20%. This could cause scarcity of Hive Power pushing up prices. But to maintain the peg to $1, this could push the price down. Which way will it go? #hive #hbd

@mypathtofire

Just a small move up with the news of 20% interest on Hive. How much new money will chase those returns?

@mypathtofire

Hive or HBD **When you are earning Hive, you are often considering, what is the best thing to do with that Hive?** **Two of those choices are to power up your Hive or to buy HBD. But which one is better?** With Hive Power you get 2,84% APR increase plus any curation reward that you do. Let's say anything between 6-12% is possible, maybe more. You also power up faster and have more influence. With HBD you get ~~12%~~ 20% and don't need to do anything. As long as the peg…

@mypathtofire

#BCH has moved down twice the amount of #BTC. Does that mean it has more upside than BTC?

@mypathtofire

#Hive moves down with the whole market -9,6%. Just in time for those wanting to buy hive for #HBD

@mypathtofire

#Hive takes a further leg down to -24,7% for the week.

ListNerds - Starting My Mailing Campaign A week has gone by and I've been using ListNerds every day and wanted to share with you my experience and what I've learned. I should have waited, but the day after joining ListNerds, I sent an email campaign out right away! After checking a 100 or so other adverts users were using, I thought that I could do this. I only had gained around 120 Mail tokens and this probably isn't enough for a full campaign, but I didn't know this at the…

@mypathtofire

Abandoning Instagram - Hello Hive! I have been using Instagram to promote my articles and account on LeoFinance and but it has come to the point where I need to abandon the account. The reasons to give up Instagram are that it is full of scam accounts and also it doesn't reward you for using it the same as LeoFinance and Hive do. Not to mention also the centralised part of it and control from "Meta". I don't think it is worth me to put in the effort to link to my content…

Why You Should Invest in Blockchain If you listen to the mainstream media, they would not want you to invest in the future at all. The traditional options for investing have been to buy real estate, stocks and now index funds are very popular. The returns by investing in the stock market have been pretty good for the last 50 years and hopefully, this will continue into the future. We do know though that it is a totally rigged market, fully controlled by the criminal…

Avoiding The Crypto King With Hive After watching The Crypto King documentary, I was suddenly worried about my Crypto holdings. I wanted to know if I could lose my crypto holdings the same way as in the film. It is therefore a good time to reassess where to store my crypto. What are the risks? Most exchanges have no audit or proof of their reserves. If you have anything on The Kraken, you can check if your Crypto assets were found in their recent audit by checking here: The…

@mypathtofire

The Power of Higher Returns With Crypto you can often earn higher returns than with traditional investments. These returns often come with a much higher risk though and once you factor in losses, the returns can come out lower than a simple passive investment and you could have saved yourself all the work. Sometimes though it is about the journey and learning about managing risk, so the work is worth it with the investment being in yourself and developing your investing…

Using Chance To Increase Crypto Portfolio Returns In gambling, bank management (or preservation) is a key activity that each person involved in any type of betting activity is always keenly focused on. The reasons for this are to avoid a wipeout but also to help maximise returns. One of the ways to maximise your returns is to turn over your bank as often as possible in order to increase returns. If your "edge" was say 5%, then turning your bank of €10k over 20x instead of…

Chasing Alpha with pHBD-USDC In stock market investing, only the likes of Warren Buffet have managed to consistently achieve Alpha and outperform the S&P Index. Most active investors usually try to beat the returns by investing in a growth strategy, this is usually tech stocks or some company that could be the next big thing. Some examples are the Netflix's, Microsoft or Google's. Another popular active investor strategy is a dividend income strategy. These investors look…

Building Your 1ETH Per Month Crypto Portfolio It's all good talking the talk, but today we are looking at taking action. In previous articles, we've looked at returns and have set ourselves some targets. Luckily with crypto the bar is much lower than with traditional investments. The goal is to build a $180k portfolio, which will throw off passive income of 1ETH (~$3000) per month. How do we get there and how long will it take? As Warren Buffet is known for famously saying,…

The Perfect Crypto Investment We have all heard the stories of particular crypto coins with a certain use-case mooning. This would be our ideal crypto investment, find this token and invest hard. You can then be a god to your mates in the pub when you tell them why you quit your job. But how do you identify the perfect crypto investment? What does it look like? The ideal investment in any category is one with a limited downside (loss possibility) but with practically…

My Hive Goals - Update 13 It is update 13 and 15 days have passed since the last update. I have made 171 (+34) posts so far. I have been posting under the LeoFinance and WeAreAlive tribes as they are the areas that interest me the most. We are more than halfway through April and it's time to check how I am doing against my yearly goals. I powered up my Hive Power, so it was a nice jump there. Probably I will hit the 2000 HP goal very soon, so may need to think about…

Some strong resistance from Hive here, could be a trend reversal

A Millionaire Is Built 10 HBD At A Time The saying that a millionaire is built 10 bucks at a time was made famous by the frugal guru Mr Money Moustache. He famously said that 10 bucks is a lot of money. And the reason why is because of the power of thinking big. You need to respect each $10 as it is a brick in your financial retirement castle. This is very true, and now that you can buy 10 HBD giving a 20% return, those $10 are working even harder for you. When MMM was…

The Cost Of Influence With the recently leaked list of Influencer shilling costs on Twitter, Youtube and Instagram. We can now price-in how much it will cost to shill any token across the crypto-verse. Here we can see that to reach nearly 20 million people through 114 "Influencers", it would cost only $80k plus $40k for a retweet. We could possibly save some money and cut out Linday Lohan, although she does have a large following. Perhaps using just Twitter isn't enough on…

Hive has returned to its price from a week ago. But its price against Bitcoin remains very strong.

Despite market weakness, Hive strengthening against Bitcoin. Looks like a new upward trend. New article out tomorrow. #hive #bitcoin

Hodl or Hive - Let's deep dive! It has been bothering me for a while. The question of whether it makes sense to HODL Bitcoin or keep invested (powered up) in Hive. Therefore let's take a deep dive. I've taken the data for the last 2 years from CoinMarketCap.com for both Bitcoin and Hive (Hive data only goes back this far) and checked how they have progressed each month. All charts I have created myself. Here you can see the Bitcoin/Hive ratio for the last 2 years. This is…

Expanding vs. Contracting - The New Future I'm just sitting here eating my Kitkat bar and noticed that something feels odd about it. It feels thinner, more compact... much smaller even. Usually, after one packet I'm feeling satisfied, but now I need to eat 2 packets to get the same feeling. We've seen this with countless products in the supermarkets and it's not the firsts time that manufacturers use these tricks on consumers. Instead of raising the prices, they will either…

The Digital Euro In a recent speech, the ECB gave more details about their CBDC Social Credit Total Control system. As we recently learned, the EU wants all Blockchain transactions of any value traceable. With their Digital Euro, it goes a step further. They want all transactions monitored and approved directly with the central bank. This includes all online and offline transactions. This means every single transaction you make, no matter how large or small will need central…

Statera - Abandon Ship It has been a month since I last looked at Statera and things seem to be going from worse to worse. In my last report, we had a monthly fall of -38,1% and we were hoping for some sort of recovery. Unfortunately, that hasn't happened and the carnage has continued. I'm sure you have noticed in your Publish0x tipping wallet the value of your Statera has evaporated week after week. However, if we look at the first chart with the YTD data, we are in a…

My Hive Goals - Update 14 Welcome to update 14, it has been 9 days since my last update. I like to check my goals progress usually weekly, although +-a few days. This works as a great motivation for me and I get to track my progress. I have made 190 (+19) posts in total and usually post twice a day. We are near the end of April and it's a good time to check how I am doing against my yearly goals. What gets measured, gets done as they say. This week I smashed past my Hive…
