Some of That PIMP Shit
Sup, it's Witty here. before we got too deep into this shit, I just wanted to make it clear that what I do personally with my investments, are not what PIMPs do. Decisions are made collectively in our meetings each week and we move in the direction we all feel is best for all of us. Sure, it's my token, but I created it with a specific goal in mind. So we all make fukn money. I didn't airdrop myself ANY PIMP, as I have been buying and earning it from posts the same as you. Scraping drips from the LPs, slapping people on chain, all the things. Hell, I've even sold some! Beauty of a thing.
Moving forward.
So what sets PIMP apart from other tokens? @ecoinstant and a handful of people are still trying to put their fingers on why we have been (and continue to be) so successful when almost all of the other 'tribal' tokens have pretty much failed or fizzled into obscurity. He is even trying to rescue a few, like #archon (and #oneup?). No lies, there are a few still lingering and hanging around, like #neoxian and #weed, that have been there since the dawn of Steem-Engine and, in all reality, seem stagnant. But, what is it, that we, as PIMPs, do so differently?
I like that word.
See, I'm not gonna bitch and throw a fit if you power down and dump all your tokens. That's kind of why Hive is here and as long as I'm around, people that put in enough effort, will make money as PIMPs.
PROFIT.
When was the last time you heard someone say, "I can't wait to lose money?"
Probably never.
You'll often come across hypocritical assholes here that say they are here for the development - but turn around and are top witnesses, some asking for proposal moneys or run big vote circle curation rings and virtually all of them run funds quietly out the back door. Don't be fooled. HIVE is money. PERIOD.
So, we keep a weathered eye on both HIVE and layer 2 token movement so we can watch each others' backs out here in this bitch. Feel free to read up on our dealings last year.
We don't just talk about tokens on Hive in our unrehearsed and live meetings every week. In fact, we talk rather extensively about #bitcoin. Our resident #cryptologist, @jim-crypto, loves to analyze the markets and we all get into some lively debate about which way things will go and why.
Some days, we drool over some shiny ass silver or gold and make it a point to assess the value of holding physical assets. Sometimes, our diamond hands shine because we put paper in our pockets and don't wear disposable rhinestone gloves bitches.
THE DIAMOND HANDS.
#Silver
We stack this shit. With the help and grace of our vault keeper - @silverd510 - we have consistently added to our stack, making PIMP, the only token on Hive (or any chain that I am aware of) backed by and stakkin' silver bullion. If you're a stakker on Hive and not supporting the PIMPs? The fuck is wrong with you. 😝 We are currently sitting on 80 75 Troy ounces of this precious metal and will continue to buy more.
#Bitcoin
We stack this shit too. Our #cryptologist, @jim-crypto (founder of @thgaming), has a good time watching and analyzing the charts, especially for #HIVE and #BITCOIN. I mean, #BTC is what got all of us to the point where we are today. With so many other chains in the lineage of cryptocurrency, it was an obvious choice to add it to our portfolio and seasoned BTC hodlr @summertooth was elected as our devoted custodian. Thank you Satoshi. We just bought another 'bit' of this 'coin' and will keep on adding to the stash.
#HIVE
This is the main thing we are after here on this blockchain. HBD is all fine and dandy, but it's the HIVE that makes the real difference. You can't do governance voting with HBD in your savings. You can't vote on people's posts with it either. So, to support all the District's denizens, we are aggressively stuffing more of this shit in our coffers this year. We've almost doubled our stake since 2025 started.
ASSETS
By hodling hard on this holy trinity of badassery, we feel the stability of our token will stay strong for its lifespan. Maybe it'll outgrow Hive altogether, and need its own place to call home? Who knows. What we do know, is that if HIVE ever goes to shit and all the tokens become worthless - PIMP will still be worth something and if agreed upon, we can sell our assets off and mitigate the losses for our diamond hand hodlrz.
(v4.2)
After some 'discussions' with various other curators across the platform like @acidyo, @josephsavage and @pharesim, we felt it was necessary to modify a few things in our District. Primarily, the way we vote. We used to just have the community account vote on whoever delegated to it as it has several other tribes attached along with it. But now:
A Bigger Slap
We gonna let these PIMPs out here backhand bitches and vote along with the tips! No longer is it "Just the tip", no, we going balls deep on ya. That chart below still maintains the PIMP tip procurement. However, we have recoded it to allow any person, with enough #PIMP staked, to also hand out a vote with their tip. It looks like this:
What that basically says, is the tiers and the vote weights for each of them. If a person has, let's say 50,000 PIMP staked to their account, then naturally, they would get three slaps each 24 hour period. The 1st gives out 1 PIMP, the 2nd 5 and the 3rd 10. With the new and improved version of our PIMP slapper code, along with their generous tipping of our sexy ass token, they will also be voting on the comments and posts!
For the 1st slap, a person will receive a 10-20% vote given to their material. The second slap will come with a 30-40% vote and the third (if they have 50k staked) will drop a 50-60% hit on them.
The percentages are dictated primarily by the amount of MANA left in the account. We have it currently set to not vote if it falls below 80% and it will be put in a queue for the next interval of votes that go out. It checks every five minutes allowing some rebuilding for the MANA in between rounds. It will also not vote on anything older than 72 hours to mildly maximize our curative efforts.
What does that mean? It means that now,
You Are the CURATORS!
All you hustlers and players and ballaz and PIMPs out here, have control of the votes that we send out. We feel that the parameters set for this innovative approach will (hopefully) increase the interaction on chain and incentivize engagement in an unprecedented fashion. You're welcome.
What the Fuck?
Ok, maybe you came across this fuckin' post and are bewildered by what I'm even on about. So, for those clueless as to what what a PIMP even is, let me tell you.
A PIMP is all about money and making theirs. The definition has changed over the years, despite what some may argue it is. I grew up in the trenches using words and doing things many of you have only seen in the movies or heard about in songs. Here on Hive, we PIMPs focus on gettin' money in several different ways. I mean, why else are you here? Really.
PIMP itself, is a token and assuming you have enough PIMP staked to breech the dividend sharing percentages, we share our daily earnings with you (95% of our daily proceeds). We are still on the top 20 of over two dozen rich lists in holdings. We hide nothing, there is no 'behind the scenes' sus bullshit going on. I tell it like it is and keep anyone informed that wants to take the time to hear it. I'll even tell you what the fuck we're doing so you can be a PIMP on your own time. But, I don't do financial advice. I just get money. You can too. Why?
MOAR
Because I'm a muthafukn P.I.M.P. and the more I make, the more you make and the more you make, the more I make and the moar all of us PIMPs make. 😎 So, let me tell you how this PIMP shit works and about the 'top 200' and how you can start stakkin'. Since the last upadate, we have made a few changes here and there. Let it be known, we aren't a private circle jerk and I invite anyone and everyone now, that wants to learn ways to be a P.I.M.P., to join us in The PIMP District where we have meetings every Wednesday at 8 am CST and can answer any questions and address any concerns you may have.
What's that?
You want to be a PIMP?
How can you get some tokens to stake?
Ways To Acquire PIMP
- Post on Pimp Media (new version to be released soon)
- Post in the P.I.M.P. community threads
- Use the tag: #pimp (and hope a P.I.M.P. sees it)
- Buy it on Hive-Engine or Tribaldex (be sure to stake it!)
- Add liquidity to one of the PIMPed out LPs (liquidity pools) pools on Tribaldex or Bee Swap
- Qualify for rewards in a discord server from @cryptoshots.nft's sweet Karina Yana chat bot
- Present a post on PYPT in Dreemport hosted by @shadowspub on Thursdays
- A P.I.M.P. uses our tipping mechanism on your post or comment
- Hope someone just randomly sends you some
if you already have PIMP and want more -
- All of the above
- Delegate HP to @tokenpimp for a PIMPed out vote (vote based on size of delegation)
- Use the PIMP slapper on a post or comment (must have 1000 PIMP staked)
- Curate other PIMPs and support the District's citizens
PIMP Slapper?
Yes. You saw the modifications earlier in the post, and this section shows you the chart that has the tiers for staking in it. You have to have at least 1000 PIMP staked (which also gets you the PIMP badge on #peakd) to make 1 call per day to tip someone 1 PIMP. To make 2 calls and tip 5 PIMP, you need to have 10,000 staked and so on and so forth. This also slaps the same amount to your own stash of tokens. See the following chart:
Current Tokens on our (purposeful) HODL List:
- #BBH (watching with fingers crossed)
- #BXT (backbone of BeeSwap)
- #DUO (great expectations engaged)
- #PAKX (NEW and hopeful)
- #PIMP (stash for promotional use)
We discuss every week, whether or not to add any or remove any tokens from that list. If you do not see your token on here, come ask us why. If you have a token you would like added and are a PIMP, hop in the chat with us and plead your case.
Still Clueless?
The stake distribution is set to the top 200 highest staked balances (after any outgoing delegations). Incoming delegations do not count towards totals for distribution. Outgoing delegations do not count toward your staked balance as you are not using it to curate any other PIMPs but letting others do it for you. And, since they are using it on your behalf without it being staked, it will not count for them either.
Some of you may notice that it doesn't reach 200 accounts yet (currrently spread to the top 120 staykrz). That's because early adopters like @nathanmars and @biglove (appreciate that immensely by the way you two) have been staking them since it was created. They had a much higher percentage in the total amount of staked PIMP than even myself! Gift of the HODL. As more people acquire and stake PIMP, and our distribution center continues its pursuit of domination, it will persist in spreading the wealth on to deeper levels until it hits 200. At that point, we will discuss whether or not to extend the numbers.
WINNING
Straight up, the purpose of PIMP is to get money. Yes, I love the community here, but you have to understand the realm in which you are living just by reading this. You're not on a WordPress blog. You're not on Tumblr. Or Fakebook. Or even The New York Times absorbing the media you desire - no - you're here. Here where some people use this blockchain to feed their families or fund their causes or build their dreams! So, all the profits being made by sales of PIMP from the center of operations and any other token trades, sales, swaps and earnings - are going right back into it compounding everything we can to better give back to all of you.
I often say we because I couldn't do any of this without any of you - the community. So, here, in this space, money and your network go hand in hand like a happily married couple fresh off to their honeymoon. The only difference between PIMP and others is - we ain't hiding our intentions, we here to WIN. Will we? It is yet to be proven otherwise and I'm not one to give up very easily.
PIMP Shittin'
In closing, I just wanna say (again) that I don't really give a shit if you are or become a PIMP or not. We're steady makin' moves and already smashing out in 2025, with or without you. Just is what it is. Some will see it right off the bat and be staking all they can. Some will see the potential, the numbers involved and put it on their 'when I have the time' list. Some will just ignore us. Anyone that knows me, knows I make things happen.
And that's one of the keys. There are three kinds of people in this world. Ones that make things happen, ones that watch things happen and ones that wonder what the fuck just happened. While you decide which one you are, REMEMBER TO BE YOU! I always am and you already know - ery day I'm hustlin'.
