Paying It Forward With Pizza Today I became a Pizza holder. Tipping tokens are all the rage on Hive at the moment and some offer some pretty decent sized tips that can add up after a while. Inspired by my dear friend @Namelessname who I met through ListNerds with his inspiring post really inspired me to also pay it forward. I have decided to also become a Pizza holder. https://peakd.com/@namelessname…

My Crypto Earnings in May **May was a crazy long month with much action in the crypto space with stable coin holders getting rekt, Altcoins getting rekt and Bitcoin still firmly in the driving seat.** All the while I was working towards my 2ETH per month goal and I now get to have a look at the numbers and put some words behind them to review what happened and compare this to my strategy. A new entry this month is Dreemport. Here you can earn DREEM tokens for curation and…

Adding a new Passive Income Stream with DLease.io Always on the lookout to add new passive income streams and boost my sack. Today I stumbled upon DLease.io. Here you are able to lend out your Hive Power to other users for a fixed return. What I like about it is that it works through delegation in your Hive wallet so that the risk of losing your loaned Hive Power is very low. DLease also takes the interest costs from the borrow upfront, so your return is guaranteed almost.…

Saturday Savers Club - Week 23 - MyHiveGoals Welcome to my latest Hive Goals review, it has been 7 days since my last update. There doesn't seem to have been any changes in the crypto market, but Hive is apparently up around 10% from last week. In the meantime, I keep stacking each week and reviewing my strategy. It is the start of a new month and summertime is usually a quiet time. I don't usually have too much spare cash due to saving for the summer holidays and the costs…

Cine TV contest - Favourite actor - Leonardo Dicaprio aka Bighead **The** **@stickupboys** **may have this one with their selection of Tom Cruise, as he has a formidable record and amazing on-screen presence. They didn't highlight one of my favourite roles of Tommy boy in Eyes Wide Shut which was a great performance by Tom and his (ex)-wife Nicole.** https://peakd.com/@stickupboys Anyhow, we aren't here to talk about Tom as the stickupboys have covered it well. Another big…

The Dream US Roadtrip I have never been to the US but it was always my dream to do a road trip across the US and as a baseline for travelling, I always thought that route 66 would be the one to do. This was before I was married and had a family. Back then I had envisioned a lads road trip "The Hangover" style with some of my friends. This would involve hiring a humvee like Arnold Schwarzenegger had and rolling across the US in style. A few years later in my 30s and a large…

Has Hive decoupled from BTC? Despite a sharp drop in BTC, Hive continues to stay strong!!! #hive #hiveprice #chart

Become A Whale For A Day Using Ecency Boost We have all seen those memes on Hive, when you go to your latest post and you have a lot of votes but they are dust votes and none of the whales has visited or the big curation accounts. Well, I've been using the Ecency frontend quite a bit for some of my posts and one of the great features that was pointed out to me was the "Ecency Points". This is like the token for using the Ecency Dapp. However, it isn't tradable on Hive Engine…

Rising Star - Day 1 - First Impressions Today I signed up for the RisingStar play2earn game. It is the first game that I have signed up for on Hive as I'm not really sure how all these games are working. So the first things I did were to put on Rising Star radio. Could the game be like GTA with the radio function? So I have no idea about anything and just clicked start mission "illegal busking". I'm not sure if busking is actually illegal? A timer popped up and started…

The Hive Big BRO A passive income token that I discovered early on was the BRO token. Being a man, one of the first places I headed to was the Mancave on Hive. Once I entered, I expected a testosterone-filled place with man talk similar to that of my earlier days of reading Loaded magazine. A place where men could hang out and enjoy themselves without the pressures of women being around the place. In I went with 20 Bensons and a 50 Euro note with my best Peaky Blinder garb…

Where is the LUV? You may be forgiven for thinking this was a post about the Black Eyed Peas. And it is in a way. I am going to answer the question posed in the song, once and for all. But first, hit play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpYeekQkAdc https://www.youtube.com/embed/WpYeekQkAdc Another great tipping token that I have discovered is the $LUV token. This is a token that is traded on the Hive Engine and according to their post, you can tip as follows:…

Coffee is for closers only Anybody who has ever been in sales will know the coffee is for closers scene in Glengarry Glen Ross. Probably one of the best movies of all time. Alec Baldwin was elevated to legend status with his performance in this role. "I'm here from downtown, I'm on a mission of mercy". I love sales and love selling. Let me tell you why. There is of course the buzz of earning a commission and hitting some targets. Marking up another sell on the board. Man, I…

Saturday Savers Club - Week 24 - MyHiveGoals Welcome to my latest Hive Goals review, it has been 7 days since my last update. The run up in Hive seems to have reversed course from reaching $0,60 this week to being back under $0,50. With the negative sentiment about inflation, this seems to be holding crypto back. In the meantime, I keep stacking each week and reviewing my strategy. I hope to be able to stack more Hive at under $0,50, but it depends on having any spare cash.…

Weekend Engagement : Live Again I think this is a very current topic because so many people are afraid to die. I have often pondered whether if I had the chance, would I live my life the way I did, or would I do things differently. Therefore, getting a chance to start over again would give you some more options for sure! The difficulty for me would be, that all the decisions, failures, and triumphs that have brought me to where I am today, have shaped who I am now. I needed…

Actifit - Checking out Proof of Activity I have seen all the excitement in the area of Move2Earn and have been keen to add it to my portfolio of crypto income sources or the marketing guys may call it a funnel? I have been a keen user of Runkeeper for a number of years and then moved to MiFit when I tried to use one of those activity tracker watch-type things. It didn't work out so I stuck with my phone and moved back to Runkeeper. Runkeeper have been bought by Asics a while…

Searching for Altcoin Gems With Bitcoin collapsing hard and currently -67,2% down from its ATH only 7 months ago, many of the altcoins have been pummelled and are suffering far higher lows. The safe bet in this environment is to stack up on Bitcoin and ride the bull back up again. The degenerate gambler in me however looks for something that could provide greater gains. **Cardano** My first thought is towards Cardano. Ranked 7 in the top cryptos by market cap, Cardano is…

Splinterlands - Day 1 After watching many Splinterlands live streams and reading many great newbie posts from my friend @namelessnameless, I decided to sign up and start playing Splinterlands. So far my experience with crypto games is just with Rising Star where I have been playing for a week so far. I have earned some crypto there but spent more than I have earned so far. As a new season of Splinterlands is starting, I thought I better try and get in on the action. I saw…

The Big Picture - Market Talk The markets are bleeding red at the moment and except for some of the OGs, most people are looking at some pretty scary numbers on their portfolios. We have had some pretty big events rock the crypto market. First the collapse of Luna and the UST stable coin. The death spiral took a life of its own. Some say it was badly managed others more an attack by institutions on a private stable coin. Whatever the story was, Luna is no more. We now have…

Have we reached a bottom with Hive? With each leg down in Bitcoin, it has pulled all the altcoins with it. However, I have noticed that with Hive it was not staying down. It started testing the trading ranges straight away and seems to be looking for any excuse to go back up. We can actually see in the last few days with Bitcoin weakness, Hive has actually been strengthening against Bitcoin. So although Hive is still a bit cheaper, it seems there is lots of price resistance…

Saturday Savers Club - Week 25 - MyHiveGoals Welcome to week 25 of my latest Hive Goals review, it has been 7 days since my last update. Hive has dropped further from $0,48 to $0,36. The negative sentiment is widespread in all asset classes and Bitcoin even broke below $19k. It doesn't seem that it will be long before Bitcoin reaches $15k. In the meantime, I keep stacking each week and reviewing my strategy and adjusting as needed. The main thing is to keep turning up and…

Gain Required - Caveat Emptor **With Bitcoin and Ethereum dropping to new lows, Altcoins are getting smashed even further. Many are getting excited and ready to buy the dip. This could be the buying opportunity of a lifetime or a failed purchase. Let me explain why.** Back on March 15th when Bitcoin was 40,9% down from its all-time high, I produced the following chart in excel: This chart shows you what gain is required to recover from a loss. As you can see, once you pass…

Splinterlands - Day 2 I managed to get my Summoners Spellbook today and started my first battles. I was playing blind mostly, not understanding the different Summoners and Monsters and I kept losing. It was not a good feeling. In my first game, I played this green summoner that I rented from the market. I rented a few cards but couldn't see some of them for some reason. I unfortunately lost. However, in my second game, I had a stroke of luck and my opponent surrender to…

ListNerds - The Top 50 Movers and Shakers **We have a new week and 8 days have passed since I last made a check on the ListNerds Top 50. We had a couple of days of downtime at the weekend, but ListNerds is running at top speed again and it's time to look at the Top 50 Movers and Shakers again.** This week I have also added the % of a validated email each person's vote is worth. The top 10 have great voting power and show the value of holding staked ListNerds tokens. This is…

Using Polyphasic Sleep to Maximise Earnings on Rising Star **It has been 2 weeks since I signed up for Rising Star and what a journey it has been. Thank you to everyone who gave me some tips on my post. I wanted to actually update my progress earlier, but some things kept getting in the way.** Since then I have played every day. My journey got off to a rocky start with me trying to figure out what has been going on and what to do. I wasn't getting anywhere very quickly, so…

Positivity Boost - Bitcoin, Hive and Tribe Trends **We are seeing all around us high inflation with higher prices for fuel, food and nearly everything is going up like a rocket! It's times like this that we go into survival mode and cut out the trips to McDonald's and live on rice and beans.** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhzmNRtIp8k&feature=emb_title Before I got into crypto, I would pay attention to the news and worry and be concerned about what something costs or how…

Saturday Savers Club - Week 26 - MyHiveGoals Welcome to week 26 of my latest Hive Goals review, it has been 7 days since my last update. Hive has increased from its low to now $0,41. It is surprisingly up against Bitcoin by over 20% on a monthly basis which is impressive. We are approaching the end of June and next week will be my half year report. Lets get down to the numbers and look at the table this week: There was no power up from from outside Hive this week, so no…

Week 1 Completed - Going Mobile Hello Splinterfans! My first week on Splinterlands is completed and I feel I am making some progress. I have to admit, my first thought when I saw Splinterlands was, what is this? What is going on with these cards and how can it be fun? I caught a few live streams to see how to play the game and still was more confused than ever! After reading many blog posts, it was still confusing and I came to the point where I need to take action and start…

Splinterlands - The First Battles **Hi Splinterfans!** **I am getting stuck into Splinterlands and my PlayStation controller is getting dusty. I even had an email today from Steam telling me a classic game that I loved was on special offer. I wanted to tell them to get on the blockchain! I don't have time for web2 gaming right now.** I am now ready to go on Splinterlands. Mobile App installed: check. Cards bought and rented: check. Mindset: Crush Mode. Check. It's time to go…

Rising Star - Buying The Dip **With the change in rules for the millionaire card here, we have seen again some sharp action in the Starbits market on Hive Engine. I am still on my journey to build a star in the game and have been taking a look at what's happening.** We experienced a sharp dip in the market when the news was first announced and then it seem to slightly recover. However, now there has been some sharp selling action driving the price down hard. source…

ListNerds - Top 50 Movers and Shakers **Another week has passed by very quickly onCHAIN and we are approaching the pivotal halfway mark for the year. The ListNerds platform continues to grow and we are seeing plenty of action within the Top50 staked ListNerds holders.** This week I have added how much each holder has in % of the Top 50 ListNerds tokens. I hope this might be interesting. This is the data up until the evening CET on 28.06.22. **This week's biggest gainers…

Splinterlands - A Winning Streak Hi Splinterfans, After my very rocky start with many losses, I managed to turn things around and get on a winning streak and start earning some DEC tokens. My first goal is to try and earn a chest. I'm not sure what that means but I think possibly it could earn some more crypto. Here I keep the focus on my earth splinter and hope my tank can hold out long enough so that my 2 ranged monsters can do some serious damage to them. I think they…
