HIVE Is For Life

This month has been a very good month for my HIVE account growth and it helps having a few regular power ups. Growth is not something we can ever take for granted and why you need to remain consistent being part of the community by adding value.

Growth does speed up the longer you remain active and this months growth would have taken me a good 7-8 months if I was starting out and I have never forgotten how tough that part is. Those days right in the beginning were tough and they lasted as long as 2 years doing an 8 hour shift on HIVE trying to catch up those in the community who had started a year or longer before me. When you turn HIVE into game mode it becomes a personal challenge and you do not realise the dollar value you are creating.

I guess most join HIVE to make some money and in my case I had no idea what I was getting into and the idea of creating dollar value was not even a thought. HIVE is so far out there as a concept for making money it sounds ridiculous, but here we all are printing dollars daily. I think because it is so far out of any normal peoples way of thinking it will take slightly longer for mass adoption to happen and when people realise what HIVE is we will become a very busy blockchain.

My stake may have grown, but the vote value has gone slightly backwards but this is normal and when you look again it would have jumped up to the next level. Not long ago my vote value was on 7.3 HIVE and within the next month it will magically turn into 7.4 HIVE and why this is a growth process that takes many years to unlock the true values.

Not forgetting the APR is sitting at around 2.96% which is close to the 3% bench mark which in my case adds an extra 12.8 HIVE daily. This is passive income growth that guarantees daily account growth even when you do nothing and this is reassuring knowing the stake creates more stake.

The temptation has never been there to power down and dilute my HIVE Power and I guess I am lucky I have never needed the funds. For myself I know I would struggle just with the idea of powering down as that is the opposite of growth and something I have focused on for over 7 years.

HIVE is very different to every other crypto investment as this is more personal due to the hands on activity HIVE requires. Every token you earn represents an action you have performed and why the account represents you more than any other crypto investment you might have. Possibly this is why HIVE is so much fun and is the best adult game/hobby around because you have to use your brain.

When you sign up and join HIVE there is no ways you are thinking this is a lifetime gig as you have no idea what is involved. The first 6 months -18 months HIVE can be challenging and a struggle but once through that early phase there is no looking back and you are here for life and may not even realise that until it hits you. Crazy to think like that, but we all know that this is true for the majority of us.
