I have been on a bit of an "involuntary hiatus" for a couple of weeks, mostly related to the fact that actual work has been eating most of my available time off the clock.
Whereas I love Hive, this is definitely not my job and my efforts here are entirely something I give when I have a few minutes available to do so.
I imagine I am definitely not the only one on Hive in this predicament!
I have also not felt super inspired, thanks to the lackluster Cryptosphere, and lackluster Hive, in particular. We can talk about the fact that the Hive token "should" be priced much higher... but the reality is that it isn't... and that's what we have to work with.
I am just trying to be patient here. And I am cautiously hopeful that 2025 might be a good year... seems crypto has historically done pretty well the year following a US Presidential election.
Maybe that pattern will hold true for 2025, as well!
Small Goals; Small Progress
I have tended to set very modest goals for myself primarily because I do know that I won't have the time to pursue something more ambitious.
But I am also really grateful for the fact that Hive allows us to build something in tiny little increments. That's a benefit you won't find, in a great many places.
Anyway, I'm slowly plugging away at the goals I set for Saturday Savers, even though I might end up falling a mile short.
Regardless, it's a good habit to keep up with where we are.
Latest update as of 10/10/24
BBH and The BBH Project
One of the Hive initiatives I became a little more interested in this year is @bradleyarrow's BBH Project.
BBH holds itself forth to:
"Make BBH the most profitable income token on Hive for its holders"
What I like about it is that it has been around for a while now, and it's originator remains highly active and involved.
Recently, the project started its own front end in the form of a Hive-Engine outpost site, and there is now also a BBH Witness, which I would encourage you to throw a vote at, if you have one free!
All in all, I'd rather support something that's actively going than the many half dead ideas that litter the Hive-Engine second layer realm!
Fall Weather and Indoor Activities
I'd like to think that I will have a little more time for this blog as we move into fall, the days get shorter and the weather encourages more indoor activities.
We're not exactly on the North Pole here, but the cold rains and winds of the Pacific Northwest don't exactly make for gardening weather!
Of course, it's nice to say such things, but quite another to follow through on them. And I must admit that I tend to be a bit "scattered" and often interested in "too many" things, the cost of which is that I tend to lack focus.
So, time will tell..
Till the next one... Feel free to leave a comment — this IS "social" media, after all!
