I remember the time when I was doing these #MyHiveGoals posts every single week, and now, I'm a disaster... lol... The last "report" was over 2 months ago, back in mid-April, and it will be interesting to see how I did... I don't have any numbers to realize that I sucked the last 3-4 weeks, but that's a different story... 😃

Speaking of a different story, before going into #MyHiveGoals, I have decided to listen to the advice of my Hive friends regarding thumbnails for my posts... So, from now on (or better say yesterday), I will try to use ONLY my photos as a background for thumbnail images... For example, this photo was taken in Valencia, a few days ago, when I was strolling around the city with my family... You can see the Queen Sofia Palace of Arts in the background, and this metal guy standing in the water is a Neptune statue... Look a bit closer and you will see the real "king" on top of his head... 😂
Back to the #MyHiveGoals numbers... As I mentioned, the last report was two months ago! Somewhere I got closer to my goals, and somewhere I still have to catch up a lot... Let's see...

As every month, on this chart, you can notice one big bar, which represents my #HivePUD effort... In June, I powered up another 250 HIVE... Speaking of #HivePUD, don't forget to power up some HIVE in July, as we are very close to the beginning of the new month! I have prepared some funds and will participate as usual!
As I have already mentioned, the last report was 2 months ago, and the previous one (before that) was a month different compared to the previous one... All that means a lot easier comparison, so let's see...
Firstly, my HivePower grew from 110K to almost 114K, to be more exact, 3777 HP is a difference in 2 months... That means a growth of 1888 HivePower per month, which is almost 100 more than before! The curious data is that in the previous report, it was also 100 more than before... Nice linear growth!
Secondly, my best result was in my staked HBD goal as I did some "external" exchanges and added more money to the HIVE ecosystem... The APR on stablecoins went down a bit as the altcoin crypto markets "took a break", so I moved some to HBD... I will continue doing that, beyond my 2025 goal... I'm well over the monthly goal for HBD staking, and I'm pretty sure I will reach it!
My Hive Meetups goal has finally moved up! 🤣 We are exactly in the middle of the year, and I have done only 1 meetup till now! It was great to attend the @BuzzParty event in Graz and hang out with other Hivians, but I will have to push a bit more on these offline hangouts if I want to attend an additional 4 until the end of the year! Unfortunately (for me), HiveFest is this year very far away from me and I'm still uncertain if I will attend it or not... Also, bad altcoin performance doesn't allow me to do much space for spending "earnings" as for now, they are still "losses" (on paper, still have not sold my stash 😃)...
Regarding my "gaming goals", it's more and more certain that I will probably not meet my goal for Rising Star total cards... After big changes that happened in the game, I moved my focus to lowering EGO, which drains most of my earnings from the game... Because of that, I buy and open fewer packs per week, and do not buy random, cheap cards from the markets, but rather those that I need... Unfortunately, those are more expensive... To be honest, I don't stress too much about not reaching the goal, as the most important thing is that I'm making progress (or keeping the current rankings 🙂).
My GolemOverlord was the easiest one to reach, which was a pleasant surprise... I suppose that happened because some people stopped playing it, as it looks like there was no development in the last couple of months... As it's an idle game, I don't mind clicking a few times per day... I will continue playing it until the end of the year and will see how to proceed in the next one... For now, the goal has been reached, and I will try to keep that ranking!
Finally, these are my initial numbers and goals for 2025, created on January 5th, 2025...
