I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1089 - 10,300 HP Surpassed on Hive, with 12,000 BP Exceeded on Blurt! - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Monday, July 21, 2025

I live naked and barefooted, 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, and I have for more than 6 years now. Although there are many challenges, 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I crossed the threshold of 10,300 Hive Power yesterday afternoon, a little behind schedule (I was hoping for it to happen last week), which is another milestone on my irrevocable march to whaledom. With the fiat value of HIVE rising, the APR for HP is falling again, which makes HP grow more slowly, though that is counterbalanced by the weight of our votes increasing with the fiat value, along with our curation rewards, so regardless of what the fiat value of HIVE is at any particular time, our HP continues to grow in a fairly consistent manner, which is quite excellent.

I also just recently past the threshold of 12,000 Blurt Power on Blurt, which is presently equivalent to $33.28 in fiat-dollar value, which is quite good, especially considering that I only created an account on Blurt on April 9th of this year. Since I created my Blurt account, every post that I've published on Hive has been republished on Blurt (with a link to the original Hive source), which has very definitely been paying off well for me, and on both blockchains, because I periodically send chunks of BLURT to Hive to add into the SWAP.BLURT diesel/liquidity pools, which also benefits me on Blurt. I know so many fellow Hivers on Blurt now, and I love it.

With the necessary critical mass now being reached worldwide, awareness of blockchain tech, cryptocurrencies, and web3 frameworks is spreading rapidly in the human collective, and with it Hive (Blockchain Ecosystem)/HIVE (crypto assset), and Blurt/BLURT too, are gaining quite a lot of traction as of late, and from all the signs and signals, we're on the edge of (among many other very significant things) a blockchain-crypto-web3 explosion of truly mind-blowing proportions. That tsunami is approaching very quickly indeed, my friends.

Even conservative estimates for the fiat-dollar value of BTC over the next 10 years are in the range of close to, or a bit over $1,000,000, with the high-end potential ranges exceeding $2,000,000. Honestly, I don't believe that fiat currencies will still even be used in 10 years, as blockchain tech and cryptocurrencies are completely redefining the financial game as we speak.

Learning, unlearning, and relearning. That will be one of the most useful skills that people can have over the next few years, as everything is about to change, on every level, and in every domain. On the financial front, I'd suggest learning and investing in sovereignty and community-driven blockchain ecosystems like Hive, Blurt, Qortal, Voi, among others, and leveraging and growing your assets as much and as quickly as possible, before the crypto tsunami reaches shore.

Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, a bit on the late side, about 2:45PM. I had intended to take some photos for my posts, but the weather was a bit uninspiring, so I didn't end up taking any yesterday. I decided to focus my energy instead on weeding along the sides of the trail going up to the Flow House, which was definitely in need. After I had my trail looking a lot better, I took a shower, headed to the Landing to make myself some food (spiced-and-seasoned mini beef patties, with mixed mustards), and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hand, I returned to the Flow House, to begin my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I had to pause that for a while to go attend the Monday community logistics meeting, after which I made my way straight back to the Flow House to get back to Hive. Even though I started later due to the meeting, I was still able to get through everything by around 11:30PM, and after some asset management, and a scan of my X feed, I went to bed just after 12:30AM. I woke up just before 8AM, having slept very well, doing more asset management, going to make a fruit smoothie (young coconut meat and water, bananas, papaya, dragondruit, mango, and Mysore blackberries - I ran out of multiple ingredients for my superfood fire coffee, so I couldn't make that) in the Landing, then returning to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 2PM, so a fantastic time to wrap this up, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a bit later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography for my posts, and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until the next edition of these posts tomorrow! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

2025 Life Goals

1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.

2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.

3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.

4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
