Ahhh July has come and gone already! That's one of my favourite months of the year come and gone already!
I managed to add around another 2000 Hive last month, to my Hive Power bringing me a total of 113 500 Hive Power.
It's now relatively easy to gain 1500 Hive a month, at least at current prices, and on that note sad to note a dip back down to $0.20 from $0.22 this time last month, and that was low enough!
It would seem that BITCOIN fluctuates, but Hive just keeps on going down!
But not to worry, we write in hope, and whatever the price of Hive this is only place that's going to pay me for my eclectic content and having fun.
This is why I have faith in the place..... Hive is the only place we are going to get paid $ something for our content, just on the basis of it being pure content... and where you can get paid for niche content that's not popular enough to hit the payment thresholds like on most mainstream social media sites.
July on Hive....
I haven't looked at my earnings in a while but they are not bad at all, even at these current prices...
- Author rewards = $361
- Curation rewards = $165
- HBD interest = $97.
- SL skimming = $80 (estimate)
- Pools/ tribes = $20 (estimate)
So that's around $700 from Hive in the last month....
Jesus man that's pretty good.
And you can see why I keep posting, the (quality of course) content is half of that total.
My posts this last month have been the usual slightly eclectic mix of finance, life, and splinterlands content.
Oh and some focus on the election early on. Seems like an age away now, but we've now had a Labour government for almost a whole month!
Splinterlands Proposal Drama....
Well it's currently NOT funded as some large Hive stakeholders are opposed to $2500 a day going towards Splinterlands....
I get this, I think it was @pharesim excuse spelling who made a point about privatising profits and socialising losses. It's a good way of putting it. Where are all those people who made a fortune cashing out during the good times, they should be chipping in, or not, it's their right maybe to take that profit, or more to the point why didn't the SL team make better provision during the good times...?
Then again I get the argument for funding the proposal, SL is still the biggest thing on Hive and the proposal is for a limited amount of time and money, albeit a lot.
Then again there is no specific break down of where the funds are going.
However compared to the Value Plan proposal I see little value coming from the later...
Basically the DHF seems to be a bit of a mess, but what do I know, very little.
Hive in steady decline....?
It was interesting to see a couple of old faces return, and I agree with one of them who after a two year break made the comparison from then to now and Hive is dead quiet, engagement is low, SL is struggling.
There just isn't that much interest ATM.
One thing I do find mostly encouraging is that the SL proposal drama seems to have ended civilly, politely at least.
But we keep on keeping on....
It's irrational, or maybe it's not, maybe it's just habit, but I just think head down, keep on posting, engage where you can, stake and stack slowly and steady, skim a little bit as you go, but less than you stack, and everything will probably be fine.
And on that note I am going for a run, in the early morning August heat!
