Time for another progress report for my Hive goals.
As a regular reminder on my progress reports, my Hive goals for 2022 are:
- 25000 Hive (Power)
- 5000 HBD
broken down into 1029 Hive and 406 HBD monthly. I have weekly guidelines too, but what is important are the monthly and yearly goals.
This week was pretty interesting. The new, improved version of HiveStats.io was released, and I obviously checked it out and reviewed it.
The two minor bugs I remarked were promptly fixed because I don't see them any more.
As I looked through the stats that interested me, I remarked that a chart for HBD balance evolution in time would be nice as well, now that HBD became more appreciated on our blockchain.
Here's the account growth chart for my main staking account, over the last 30 days:
A nice uptrend here, consistent with my focus to achieve the Hive Power yearly target.
Another element that influenced the way I acted this week towards achieving the goals was the announcement (during the Town Hall) of the imminent release of Waka Spiritblade promo card by the Splinterlands team. I wrote a post with my thoughts about that a few days ago.
Basically I haven't decided what I'm going to do. On one side I want the promo card, one the other side that interferes with my main Hive goals, of which I write about weekly in these posts. That even interferes with my goals for Splinterlands.
At the moment, I lean more towards not pursuing this distraction of buying the promo card (which is indeed powerful, thus enticing to buy). But that would cause too many plans to go sideways or be pushed back, and I can't have that.
But I am still in stand by for more details, so I haven't invested a lot in Hive or HBD this week, which reflects in a poor week compared to my general guidelines.
What I purchased was mostly HIVE, because it dropped a bit in price and because my HIVE target suffers much more than the HBD one.
Let take a look at the spreadsheet:
I missed both guidelines for the week by far and things don't look very promising at half of the month for February with 23.91% on the monthly HIVE goal and 29.56% on the monthly HBD goal.
There are circumstances - which I explained above - and if I decide NOT to attempt to buy Waka (quite likely!), more significant purchases will follow to improve these numbers.
