Hello to all who might read this.
I've been away from hive for about a year now, I see that my last post was at the end of October of last year. I decided to check out the platform today, possibly out of boredom on a cold rainy day, and perhaps out of not wanting to look at the news on election day. (I live in the U.S.)
This election cycle has caused me a lot of anxiety and depression...I knew that people can be hateful and cruel, but it's really been on display by the magat movement in this country for the past few months. My overly sensitive and empathic mind is greatly affected by all this horrible treatment of people by other people, and it exacerbates my tendency toward depression. Anyway, that's not what I came here to write about, but that was on my mind .
I see that the value of Hive still sucks, but I'm not really surprised by that. It obviously did not ride the coattails of bitcoin into greater value. It's a shame really, but it is what it is. Still, Hive is a fairly unique platform, so it does have that going for it. I might start writing posts here again, mostly for something to do to keep me occupied a bit through the winter. I still have a few things I can talk about, and I have some model kit review videos that have not been posted on Hive yet.
I guess that's about all I have to say for now, here's a cat picture just because I can. This is Shitaki the cat.
Thanks for checking out my post!
What the people make of it.
Honestly, Hive is technically a revolutionary platform, but currently most people are not grown up to it.
This platform is doomed by most of its users by their selfish and greedy behavior.
Many people stop using Hive, when the price of the Hive become low.
And many people, who are still active on this platform, focus on their own posts.
The result is the general lack of real content consumers.
Most Hive posts are ignored/overlooked because of this.
If people would actually care about the content on this platform too (like on any properly working social network), then the things (probably including the price of the Hive too) would be better.
I still believe in this platform and in its users.
That the people can make the Hive a better platform.
I bought (and I powered up) more than 500 Hive in this month (in 2024 November) so far, and I continue buying (and powering up) Hive at least in this month.
Now would certainly be a good time to be buying hive if you're trying to accumulate it.
I bought Hive multiple times in this month (even today (on 2024.11.12), and I am planning to continue buying it at least in this month.
I bought and I will continue buying Hive Dollars (HBD) too.
Nowadays I am rebuilding my Hive Dollars (HBD) savings.
Currently I have $51.85 HBD in savings.
Once I had more than $1000 HBD in savings, and I earned more than $20 HBD interest per month.
This was when the Hive Dollars (HBD) interest rate was 20% APR.
Currently it is 15% APR.
Gonna still take it a while to catch on and folks to educate themselves or be educated of it's value over the other options out there. Still hodling.
I hope you start writing again. I've missed your posts!
Glad to see you're still on this side of the sod!
Thanks, I appreciate that!
