Took some profits today from a coin I had invested a long time ago, felt like powering some hive with them.
Dunno, probably an idiotic move as this place feels more and more hopeless these days, largely due to whales throwing money to non sensical stuff through the dhf. All that money wasted and not even one decent exchange listing to show for all these years.
Heck, we even have a witness in the top-20 dumping every last hive for years now and diverting those money to eth. And he fucking advertises it lol.
And our market cap position keeps going down. I wonder why
Having said that, this place has been a blessing for me in countless ways and I did dump a few thousands hbd this year and I wanted to come even, more or less.
I placed 2k in the pwr/hive pool by @empoderat. Great project, great Apr, great liquidity. Check it out, it's probably the best place to park your hive for a juicy 20 Apr % and you essentially stay liquid 24/7.
I also powered up 8k hive. Nothing crazy but a decent amount I guess for a pleb like me. And I also kept some liquid in case we get a crazy pump or whatever.
Ok, that's it for today friends.
Hive on!
Lol.

Nice powerup. I think there is a lot of discussion over how the funds in the DHF are distributed and people are blaming it there for the market cap of Hive. I do think Hive is a great place and that is a lot of hive you powered up.
I hope I'm not voting for that witness. Admittedly, many of my witness votes are blind votes.
I am referring to the realwolf. Don't vote witnesses blindly. Although thats something I am guilty of as well
thanks for pointing it out, removed my vote as well!

Those reasons stated about hive show exactly why it's a very centralized blockchain no matter how much a few people want to preach that it's decentralized. There's not a thing decentralized about it lol
8k HIVE power up is a great Christmas gift for your account. congrats!
It's ok I guess ๐

Now is the time to Power Up, against the trend. There's nothing rational, Hive pumps later than everything else... I have a feeling at some point on the way down from the Bull market people will start to look for yield coins, Hive is one of those, just a theory. It's all just monkey money and shitx and giggles ATD anyways!
Maybe you are right. Or just wishful thinking ๐ฉ๐
!pimp
glad to hear you finally took profits from $gaytoken!
๐คซ
And you didn't even wait for Hive Power Up day.
!PIMP
Every day is hive power up day ๐๐
Itโs definitely frustrating to see funds being used on projects that donโt seem to benefit the community, especially with declining market cap. Itโs tough when thereโs a lack of focus on exchange listings and sustainability. Hoping for positive changes soon.
It is what it is.
And what it is is why funds are leaving at a wild level.

That's a huge power-up. 8k hive is a lot for me ๐
!pimp
Powering up always feels so nice, hopefully we can get this Blockchain run by people who care more about HIVE.

Dhf is of little importance. All power lies with the whales on Upbit unfortunately
Dhf plays a huge role. The bleeding is ridiculous and there is almost nothing tangible to show of. Sure, Korean whales are important but we would be much better if millions and millions of hive hadnt be dumped for no reason. It's simple math
DHF is printing our market cap a year. Itโs huge importance.
How to power up Hive???
From your wallet ๐
8k nothing crazy? ๐
i reckon the witness you talking about start name with G
I can do better. The thing is...I don't want to cause this place feels hopeless
Make Hive Great Again!
!PIMP
Lol
I've gone through articles people complaining about DHF funding and it's surprising that whales are not talking about it.
You mean active witness has been dumping hive? If so then it's really bad because they're supposed to set-up an example so that others follow them. I will try to go through the project you mentioned and figure out more about it.
Last but not the least, congratulations for your power up of 8k hive and I also did some power up but not big like you. ๐
Like you mentioned, I have also converted some coins to hive and planning to do even more with hope that hive will do better.
Many whales do complain but there's always a bigger fish in the ocean ๐
moar power can be good. Understand your other thoughts as well. Hive on, or gif on if you like man.
!bbh
I honestly think a huge factor is that we just didnโt pick a unique name or spelling, making it hard to find, and weโve done crap for marketing.
Then when we lost the attention after the initial fork, people blamed the lack of price action as the cause of the issue, rather than the result of our collective inaction, or ineffective action.
Personally I think we also need to find ways to get the good layer 2 Hive tokens to get listed on more exchanges, just like all the eth alt coins and every other chain has.
Imagine Leo getting a major listing!
Pretty much impossible cause hive engine is poop lol
Nice power up! I agree that all that money is being wasted in DHF, and not one exchange listing. It wrong. Thanks for the tip on @empoderat !
!duo
Power Ventures is a great project to park some liquid hive
You just got DUO from @trumpman.
They have 1/1 DUO calls left.
Learn all about DUO here.
Twenty percent is too bad at all! When I pick up some more Hive I'll park some there. Have to wait until the price stops dropping though...
!PIMP
Which witness are you talking about? I did go remove votes from a lot of approved witnesses with less than one hundred k HP.. gotta have some skin in the game
The boy that screamed wolf lel
Yeah I saw. Thanks though..

Feels really good to power up. If I could make it just to 1k Hive Power, I'll really be happy
racias por el consejo, lo tendrรฉ en
I think that as more and more of us become orcas we'll be able to counter these idiotic DHF leaks. In fact, I bet we can fund a proposal to burn DHF funds and cut down on mindless spending, we can vote out shitty witnesses, etc.
Hey @trumpman,
Congrats on your powerup! Based on @sm-silva's comment and your downvotes, Iโm guessing youโre referring to me. Itโs okay if you donโt like me, but Iโd like to clear up some misconceptions since what youโve shared isnโt entirely accurate.
First off, itโs true that Iโm selling Hive โ but not for the reasons youโre suggesting. The reality is simple: I need to provide for my family, keep a roof over our heads, and continue working on projects that matter to me and other. If I could afford to keep all my Hive staked, I absolutely would. Thatโs just not my situation right now, and I wonโt sugarcoat it. If this is a dealbreaker for your vote, I understand and respect that.
Regarding the claim that Iโm diverting funds to ETH โ thatโs not true. I started using EVM smart contracts for my game because it was the best technical choice for creating a fully onchain game without having to rely on Hive Engine, which quite frankly has it's own flaws, or building my own validator system from the ground up. Iโve been keeping a close eye on the work Blocktrades and his team are doing, as well as developments with VSC, but neither was production-ready when I had to make the decision months ago.
Hive has always been important to me. Over the years, Iโve seen over and over again Hiveโs greatest strength: its community. Itโs ironic that many memecoins rely almost entirely on their communities, though assembled by greed, yet Hive has so much more to offer and still sits at a fraction of some of their market caps.
After 7 years on Hive, Iโve learned a lot. My vision is to help bring Hive out of its bubble, but that wonโt happen if we stay in an echo chamber or keep doing the same things. Iโve tried focusing exclusively on Hive before, but that just didn't work out. This time, I'm learning into Hive's strength and combining them with innovations & strengths from other platforms where they make sense. I believe this approach can bring more people to Hive, especially with the lite accounts being developed by Blocktrades and his team, than me just focusing on Hive-exclusive projects.
That said, I understand your frustration with the price and how, without full context, my actions might be interpreted differently. I hope this explanation helps clarify the situation and shows that my commitment to Hive remains strong.
Wishing you all the best,
Wolf
You are a dev, you can get a real job easily with good $$ to feed your family.
