I started tallying my coins at the end of the month in August 2021. The chart below shows total account growth during this period. My account has grown from $2,216 to $2,646 in that period.
Isn't that spiffy.
NOTE: I borrowed several hundred dollars to buy HIVE which I must repay. The grey line shows the reported value of the account. The blue line shows the value minus the loan. The plue line will cross the grey line when I repay the loan.
I joined SteemIt 76 moons ago with the hopes of developing some community based web sites for the ecosystem.
I am really glad I didn't as I would have lost my shirt and been left living on the street.
I created the accounts @vagabondspirit , @irivers and @idoodle for different parts of the projects I wanted to created. I decided to use the accounts to curate HIVE tribes. @irivers curates STEM posts, @vagabondspirit curates #FOODIE posts and @idoodle curates CCC posts.
Liquidating My HBD
I decided to sell my HBD and pick up some #HIVE-Engine coins during the end of the year sell off.
I noticed HIVE Whales were punching the coins for the cookie cutter tribes.
I wonder if the whales are planning a strategic destruction of HIVE Engine?
Personally, I think that HIVE made a huge mistake when the powers that be decided to make HBD to the primary focus of the platform. The 20% interest on HBD failed to attract new users.
Monthly active user table by @arcange shows that users on the platform have declined steadily since the raise of the interest rate.
The tokens on HE crashed and I really don't see legions of users developing programs to interface with HIVE.
I am hoping that this year will be the year when the whales realized they made a mistake with the 20% interest rate. I don't know if reversing the decision will bring back the users and developers that HIVE lost in the last few years.
Here Is the Data
The data shows that my account increased from 1,358,056 coins in the last report to 1,533,45 coins.
The reported account value grew from $2,509.81 to $2,646.49. Wow, that is a $137.
Of course part of this is because I did strategic buys on HE which artificially raised the price of HBD and VYB just before I tabulated the figures.

This might be the last report that I publish on HIVE. The reports get few votes and they make me feel bad. I will give the proceeds to my primary account @yintercept .
