I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #451 - Some Nice Boosts This Week, and BTC Spot ETF Approval - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Saturday, October 21, 2023

I live barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i. I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

In less than an hour I will blast past 2,800 HP, as last Sunday's iteration of this post goes to its quite nice payout (around 20 HP) . That's a pretty sweet gift on this lovely sunny, warm, and breezy jungle Sunday.

Another even larger boost will come on Friday, as I received the most votes in last week's #SaturdaySavers Club #TopAuthors poll, so I'll receive 60% of the payout from that post this Friday, which my portion is presently 41+ HIVE, that I believe will be split 50/50 between HP and HBD. So I'll very likely get another marvelous boost to my HP, and also a good boost to my HBD in Savings. The week after that, on November 1st, I'll also do a powerup of 13-15 HIVE for #HPUD. Yep, I'd say that my HP is growing at a very nice pace indeed!

My intense focus on growing my account as much and as quickly as I'm able is an expression of my absolute commitment, dedication, trust, and faith in our beloved and exceptional Hive Blockchain Ecosystem. It's also me doing my best to be ready for when Hive, and the whole crypto market explodes, which it will most certainly do, especially as fiat currencies begin to fail.

As many of you might have heard, as there's quite a lot of talk about it at the moment, it is expected that the SEC will approve the BTC spot ETF quite soon, likely within the next few months, possibly as early as January. If this happens, it is expected that about one trillion dollars will be added to the crypto market cap. Bitcoin will likely jump quite dramatically in value, to $50,000, or more. If this does happen, the entire crypto market is going to go waaayyy up, and you can bet that we'll see the effect of that here on Hive as well.

One thing I feel that I do need to say is that Blackrock, which applied for the BTC spot ETF, is bloody evil, so I don't trust anything that they do, of course. The SEC is also nothing to be trusted, so this BTC spot ETF application and approval likely has another very non-beneficial agenda behind it. Even with that being the case in all probability, I will still do my best to take advantage of the massive surge that's very likely going to be passing through the cryptosphere. Any gains that I make will go back into Hive, as that (and the handful of other sovereignty-driven blockchains such as Qortal, Koinos, Holochain, and Bastyon), is the best possible investment, both for me individually, and for humanity as a whole. Are you ready, or are you preparing, for this crypto tsunami? I know I am!

The amount of catch-up and tasks that I have to do on Hive each day and each week comes in very notable waves. Some days and weeks are easy-peasy, with me finishing everything early, while there are other weeks and days where I feel quite buried and behind. Yesterday was one of those more buried-and-behind days, and as much as I worked to stay caught up, my efforts were only partially successful.

I finished my Hive essential tasks by around 4:30PM yesterday, took a few more photos for this post, got a few food supplies from Tutu's, and had another great conversation with Sperry (@nysqually) on the desperate and dying slave system and The Great Awakening (we had an earlier fantastic conversation on this subject the day before as well), all before going to do some land work. When I did put my focus on work, I ended up helping Ano unload coconuts from his truck after his weekly cocoing trip on Friday, and then load it for Sunday market. After helping him, I also treated one of the longon trees in the chicken pen with a particular acid that stimulates them to flower and fruit. I didn't get as much land work done as I would have liked again, but at least there was something. I'll just have to make it up over the next few days.

After finishing work around sunset, I took a shower, made food for myself, got food for my kitten friend, then I was about to go back to the Flow House when Iolanthe, Ano and Melekai's 11-year-old daughter, asked him me if I could make her the type of eggs that I made for myself, but down at Tutu's. So I covered my food and went down to Tutu's to cook Io some eggs. Once that was completed, I headed back to the Landing, got my food and the food for my kitten friend, and then finally returned to the Flow House for my evening round of Hive catch-up and tasks. Unfortunately I was not able to finish before it got too late, and I got too sleepy to continue, so I had to pause to go to sleep. I did sleep pretty well, and I woke up around 6AM, diving immediately into working on finishing what I could not last night. I finally got out of bed around 8AM, to go make my superfood fire coffee.

It's getting close to 1PM now, so it's a great time to end this post for the moment, so that I can do a few important a Hive tasks, before devoting a little time to helping two other fellows that live here for a short while. @aukuna asked me if I would buzz his head, and after that I have another Hive education class with @nysqually. Once those two tasks are done, then it's time to dive into my afternoon round of Hive essential tasks, get as much catch-up as I can done, before beginning the long process of compiling and writing my 73rd Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update that I'll publish later tonight. I deeply appreciate you all very much! Until that post tonight, and the next incarnation of this post tomorrow! Onward and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
