Pullbacks in price tend to lead to people not being as active. We see that each time the price of $HIVE drops.

As was stated just keep active and growing your wallet. When the bull returns, so were the people.

Pullbacks in price tend to lead to people not being as active.

If they were smart however, they would do the opposite.

Remember that you receive a higher number of tokens for your rewards when prices are lower.

So they should be taking the opportunity to earn more tokens for being active while prices are down.

Then stop posting and sell what they've earned when prices rise and the number of tokens you receive for rewards drop.

It's always this way. People get excited and motivated when things are going up, and lazy and depressed when things are going down.

That's why we need to disassociate ourselves from focusing on price, and focus instead on number of tokens in our bags. The price we can't do anything about. How many tokens we have in our bags when the price returns to higher levels is almost completely within our control. Stick with what you can control. Your future self will thank you.

Amazing how many people's emotional state depends upon the market. It is pure foolishness to allow the insane to dictate how you feel. Yet that is what they do with the bi-polar being called the market.

I agree about just keep filling the bags. Every token of a quality project that goes in is going to pay off that much greater in the future.

"How many tokens are in our bags" I like that. Keeping that number in mind, while building and engaging with the community is the way forward.

Has anyone written a long-form post based on this topic or explanation? I think it would help the light bulb turn on over people's heads when they understand what's happening.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Alright, it's now on my to-do list ;)

If they were smart however, they would do the opposite.

Isnt that the practice of most people. Do they not sell in the markets when they should be buying and vice versa?

I agree they should do the opposite: get busy when markets are down. Alas, for years we saw the resistance so it is not likely to change anytime soon.

Ironic that each time they come back they do an announcement post like we were waiting for them. Many talk about how they missed out by being away yet repeat the same behavior.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You know what? I know I shouldn't let it bother me, but it pisses me off. As with the last HIVE price run over $3 in 2021.

One unnamed dude published a well-rewarded "I'm back!" post after a friend alerted him that Hive was pumping. He'd fled last time when the price was down, and now returned to a hero's welcome once he heard the price was up. Wash, rinse, repeat.

If you have a good reason to be gone, that's fine. But it's the same people time and time again.

Let the HIVE price drop, and they scatter like cockroaches when the light comes on.

(deep breaths EverNoticeThat... Think of Unicorns and sandy beaches...)

We need to keep the people top of mind who hang around through the good times and the bad, and keep building Hive.

That is true, this is the best time to even work harder and do
More

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is what I found. When things slow down, time to increase the activity.

Strive for larger goals in terms of what you are doing on here. In fact, double whatever you are doing, especially in terms of comments if possible.

That is how we can take advantage of the situation.

@taskmaster4450le That is just strange to me. Like the others say… they should remain active. As you can buy more Hive now. But noticeable… there is a lot less engagement lately.

But… I’m just doing what I’m doing. Continue building… growing. FOR ALL! 😎

As stated above, it is the opposite of what people should do yet that does not stop them. We are the ones who benefit since we can stand out more and less "competition" in the reward pool.

Keep doing what you are and growing your account. In 6 months, you will be in much better shape. The last week has been a great start for you.

How may LEO did you accumulate over the last 7 days? Are you monitoring that?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I will @taskmaster4450le looking forward to it. The next 6 months. 😎

I just started receiving LEO in the last 7 days. So can track it. I have right now 7.12 Leo staked and the coming 7 days… pending are 29.15 LEO. If the stats of hivestats are correct. Most of the time it still shows 000000 everywhere. But I keep track of it.
This is all earnings, as I’m not buying anything.
Small beginnings 😊 still proud of it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Once again, when we look at the percentages, you are looking at a huge jump.

Starting with 7 and getting 29 over the next 7 days, that will give you a 5X in a week.

Nothing like 400% growth.

Keep it up. Your influence on Leofinance, as well as Hive, is growing.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, a big jump… 😎 will do my best. I do know the longer you are here the harder those jumps will be.

I remember when I first started on LeoMarketTalk, and after awhile noticed all of these LEO tokens coming seemingly out of nowhere.

I thought it must be a bug or something, and I'd have to pay it all back! :) The guys here were happy to tell me that it was all from upvotes related to my comments.

I had no idea, and was just enjoying the interactions with the community.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is funny 😉 yes… earning and at the same time having so much fun interacting. A great combo 😎

I'm working on a couple of posts, and when I do that my engagement drops. I'm still trying to figure out how to keep both posting and engagement high. Sooner or later I'll figure it out, but it won't be today.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I work on one post at a time. Engage in the morning and evening a little. Not sure if I can continue this rhythm but for now it works for me. Everybody needs to find what works for them. It will be all different for different people.

My preference is to work on one post at a time and do comments here and there. Unfortunately for me, when I work on a post I end up in a rabbit hole or a block hole, so commenting takes a hit. If I have to make images for a post beyond the cover image, that's my day right there. As a result, I end up publishing 1 post a week, maybe 2; some weeks go with 0 posts, and that's not good for me.

Recently I started experimenting with working on a massive post which I can break up into chunks which can get posted one time each day. I'm also experimenting with meta-posts: the post I want to publish, plus a "behind the scenes" post explaining tools and processes I used to make the original post. Both take me a while and I may be missing for a bit, but after they're done I can publish them 1 a day for maybe a week or longer.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I understand @magnacarta that takes time.
Sounds like you are on to something. Yes, publish them in bits. It will give you more posts. I was thinking about that. If I would have posts with over 50 photos… breaking it up. Part 1, 2 etc.

My daily posts… on a weekly basis, 3 of them are contest posts and the others are my own blogs… photography and artworks with progress steps. So I mix it all up.

I luckily have folders from my photos, tons of them. Organised them over the years. Haven’t publish them on-line though…. Some are in my printshop.
So easy access to my photography now.
My art… I finished over the last 10 years. I already shared most steps /how to progresses on-line. Some are even published in magazines. ( which I will share soon )
So again I have it ready to include in a post. I now just add steps or leave a few out.

The only thing for me that is really hard…. Writing the blog around it. The written part. Never done that to this degree. Blogging… I mean. So learning as I go.
Also my English… still learning English since 2011.

Hope it works out for you and you find what is best… time wise and how much to post. 😊

You've been busy-- really busy!! I should be learning from you!!

Some topics are better for frequent posting than others, and some topics are excellent for short posts such as modeling or general photography. I need a topic like that; I don't want to do 3,000 words about some selfie where I look blurry in it.

I'll see what's out there to see what people are doing which I can apply to my own situation and interests. What I want to do is more posts in less time. I'm not there yet.

PUD you say,what is PuD.

Really wished I get to know more about this, pretty new and just getting used to things on leofinace

You power up some HIVE and you get a little badge in Hive.buzz. Plus, depending upon how much you have, you are entered into drawings for prizes that usually include HivePower delegations. Like 500 HP or something. They're fun and give people a reason to build their accounts. The key to this place is building enough power that you can keep increasing how much your votes are worth. You get half of your upvotes returned to you in HP after all. So the more your votes are worth, the more you get back.

Hive PUD is Hive Power Up Day.

On the first day of every month, the community is encouraged to power up their HIVE.

All a bit of fun :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

What's the difference between Power Up Day and powering up HIVE whwnever, especially if every day is Power Up Day for some people?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

No difference.

The whole PUD thing is just a bit of fun and to get the community educated and engaged.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You get a badge from @hivebuzz for Powering Up at least 10 HIVE on Hive Power Up Day (which is held during the first day of each month) and get listed among those who participated on the PUD. Other than that, there are no benefits.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Before November, I wouldn't have been able to participate in HPUD even if I wanted to. Now that I have the HIVE to do so, I'm still not feeling it. Someday I may participate in an HPUD, but for now I'll just let the HP accumulate as it had been.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's totally up to you if you want to participate in #HiveBuzz challenges (and how you will participate in case you decide to join).

Have some !ALIVE.

@magnacarta! You Are Alive so I just staked 0.1 $ALIVE to your account on behalf of @savvyplayer. (8/10)

The tip has been paid for by the We Are Alive Tribe through the earnings on @alive.chat, feel free to swing by our daily chat any time you want.

This is a good time to consolidate and accumulate, so we can punch through when things recover. I feel good about what's coming up in 2022.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Without a doubt. It is really not a tough concept. When things are down, add to your bags. Then when the bull returns, in USD terms, you will be that much further ahead.

I am not sure why this is not noticed by most people.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Every little bit counts. Just take your time and you can always save it for next month if you can't get enough.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Managed it well @jfang003 when I saw a post (January and now February) from @traciyork about it. I will have a little over 10HP to power up. Still 2 conversions today and tomorrow. 😉 so just in time.

Are we going to see some LEO powered up alongside your HIVE? ;)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Every day is Leo Power Up Day in my opinion.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well there will definitely be some LEO powered up along with my HIVE when the 1st rolls around for me.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We will definitely power up some Leo, I still consider Leo as a good buy
