Another landmark
I first joined the Steem blockchain on August 1st of 2017. It seems like a century ago. The beginning was... weird and hard. I had great expectations, saw myself getting 300 USD rewards on posts in my dreams... But, of course I was wrong. The beginning is just a struggle you have to get through. Rewards of 0.07 USD per post, it is just part of growing on here, right. Nobody gets the jackpot after the first dime, I guess. But, I stuck with it, kept on posting, and kept on searching for my style, my signature. And eventually I grew an audience, and that audience is getting bigger and bigger, every single day. For which I am very thankful. I appreciate every single vote, even the smallest of them. As my saying is, every little bit counts!
Profited from opportunities
When Hive split from the Steem blockchain, I decided to go all in on Hive, and some were hesitant at that point, because at some point 1 Steem was worth 4 Hive, but I saw the value in that, and started the power down of Steem, and got an amazing opportunity to grow my Hive account 4 times faster at that time. Even when Hive was at 0.08 USD, I didn't hesitate. And for that, I am even more grateful right now. Because nobody will take away those cheap Hive from me, anymore. They are in my account, because I took a very good decision. I also powered down all Blurt that was airdropped to me, before the real downfall of Blurt, and exchanged it for Hive. All decisions that turned out to be moneymakers in the long run.
It's a long game
For me, there is no short game in Hive, it is a long game, and I will keep on posting, curating and staking them Hive as long as I can, and feel comfortable with it. In my opinion, the short game is never a good idea when it comes to crypto. So remember people why you're here, you are in it for the long game, just like in life!
Sincerely,
Pele23

Gratz on your milestone and I do I wish I can keep up like you cuz that's one of the biggest thing pulling me back IMO.
Of course you can, just be consistent
Consistency is the bane of my life 🤣 But I will try for sure!
Congratulations bro,it's really a long journey,so much love the risk you took in selling your steem,you could actually see the bigger picture ahead.i hope to match you stand one day,ride on bro and more wins

That is a high milestone reached and glad to see people getting more power on the Hive blockchain. This shows interest, passion, and also trust in the future from here and the vision to shape it through witness voting.

Congratulations! Lol, you reminded me that I missed my fourth birthday at STEEM - HIVE, the damned war hid this holiday from me.
Congratulations, you bet on the winning horse! But most of all, congratulations on your determination. I was late to this platform but I still could have made a 6X. Too bad I didn't arrive when it was only worth 0.08.

Inspiring growth. Hope you continue growing like this..
I too joined on 2017 but missed the bus to stake HIVE due to inactivity .. Hopefully I am not too late and we will see $10HIVE just like we did on Steem :)
Congratulations! That's a great mile stone achieved!

Many congratulations my mate :') That's an amazing feat to achieve. Many more such milestones to come. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the support you have been giving me. It means a lot. I just completed my first 2K HP. Let's see if I can make it past 5k by the end of this year. As you said, I am in it for the long game. 🦁

Compound interest is the eight wonder of the world
The best decision you could have made, the change from steem to hive.
I hope you keep reaching for more and more.

Really did a smart job and has now benefited from the fact that over time Hive's price has increased many times over. I hope you will benefit more in the future.
Congratulations. It pays off to focus on Hive and I wasn't here during the Steem days.
