Hello all! Another week and it’s time again to do another #myhivegoals post, a series idea started by started by @jongolson. This also doubles as my weekly progress report for #saturdaysavers, which is a fun little group that tries to motivate everyone to save and reach their goals. I’m going to look at the progress I’ve made on my Hive goals, as well as give a few tokens I’m looking at right now. If you are here for the comment SBI giveaway, well, we’ll get to that too.
Let’s start with my Hive goals.
Hive & HBD
My goal for this year was 35k Hive Power. And I made it! Now my stretch goal is 40k. SO how am I doing towards that…
Last week I made and bought (mostly bought) 688.12 HIVE, bringing me to 38,532.570 total Hive Power. That’s 96.3% of my stretch goal!
Math time. 40k - 38,532.570 gives us 1467.43. Divided out by the days till the first of next year, we get 28.8 Hive needed per day to reach 35k by that point. Woohoo! That is actually almost almost to the point where I can reach it completely organically, simply from post earnings. I think I will still help out the progress with some buys, but I may start redirecting outside money into other Hive Engine projects, like PIMP.
Speaking of which…!
Second Layer Tokens
| Token | Last week total | Goal | Needed | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| — | 2000 | 0 | Goal Met | |
| BRO | 2.743 | 1000 | 382.9603 | 61.7% of the way there! |
| PIMP | 361.98 | 100k | 6908.49 | 93.1% of the way there! |
| CINE | 274.471 | — | — |
I did pick up a few BRO. Not many, but every little bit helps, eh? PIMP earnings were normal and CINE earnings were nice, but bonus. At current CINE value, that 274.471, though impressive to look at, is only 7 cents. But yknow, CINE is my long play. If it goes anywhere, awesome, but if not…. oh well.
Others… my RUG dividend last week was an awesome 25.557 DBOND, roughly $5. Instead of cashing out, though, I just sold it and bought more RUG. I don’t have any particular goal here yet, I just am enjoying this investment.
Silver
The silver chart for last week:
Not great, but not bad. While the crypto market is going nuts from the Trump win, silver seems indifferent to it. Looking forward, Trump promises a return to tax cuts for the rich with the hope it trickles down. Reaganomics, back in style. 40 years of hard data shows us this doesn’t really work very well, unless the goal is transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich. I wonder how silver and gold will do when this starts back up. At any rate, it’s always a good time to buy some silver. With BTC shooting past 80k, might want to take some of those profits and put them in silver and gold.
Speaking of which—(how’s that for a segue?)—here is a good looking coin that I came across today:
Isn’t that cool? It would go really well with my other Pac-Man silver oz. Get it here.
