Half the year is over. Where do I stand?

$1

For once, I didn't miss the Hive Power Up day and I managed to power up 100 Hive today. This is not much but lately it seems that I don't have much liquid hive accumulated.

At the beginning of each month, it's also an occasion to look at how I'm progressing and to see where I stand in relation to the goals I defined at the beginning of the year. At the end of 2024, I set my goals for 2025. There are two goals that I set. One is to reach 80'000 HP and the other to have 16'000 HBD in my savings account.

Since today is exactly half of the year, it's interesting to see where I stand. To be on target, I should have reached 50% of my goal by today.

TokenStart levelTodayGoalIncrease %
HP72'02476'89780'00061%
HBD15'00515'20316'00019.9%

It's the same picture since the beginning of the year. I'm well ahead regarding my HP goals but well behind my HBD goals. With Hive prices so low, it doesn't make much sense to swap Hive for HBD so I continue rather to progress with HP. I kind of want to push my HP stake these days but for that, I would need to make some more posts...

Post creation is still lagging

My target is to create between 8 and 10 posts per month but I'm quite far from it. In May, I managed to generate 7 posts which is definitely not too bad. However, in June I wrote only 5 posts in total which is by far to little. I will need to be more consistent in the second half of the year.

What I'm working on

For the past weeks, I've been quite busy discovering all the possibilities given by AI. I did some image generation, created some videos and then went on to build some tools with the help of AI. The more I use it, the more I realize that my creation potential has been extended. Things that seemed out of reach a couple of months ago, now seem doable...

With the current pace, you will easily reach your HP goal, no doubt. To reach the HBD goals, you need to push yourself up! I think publishing more posts in the coming months will take you there!

Best of luck!

It definitely will come down to post more regularly to reach my HBD goals...

It's rough, but with the prices so low, it makes more sense to stock up on HP. Let's see if an altseason happens if Hive goes up along with it.

I wouldn't mind seeing hive go up a bit... I'm probably not alone with that :-)

Look on the bright side, HP and HBD is essentially still money! They will balance each other out, especially if the price of HIVE manages to appreciate in the following months!

I'm counting on that and I don't want to be too much confined with the nature of the goals, the most important is to accumulate what makes most sense in the actual market conditions.

I think when the Hive price eventually recovers, reaching that HBD goal will become much easier. For now, it makes more sense to build HP as it's the easier path to conquer. I realize something similar with AI too, I think it does opens up your mind to rethink what's possible :)

AI is like a new disrupter that can open a lot of possibilities I believe.

I see you on the HBD and the swapping… I’m lagging behind on those goals as well. But you are going really strong on the HP goal!!! Congrats on that!

Thanks! I'm actually using a part of my HBD interests to buy books lol. I hope I can reach my HBD goals in spite of that. I'm quite confident that I will reach my HP goals and maybe at a later stage we will see higher Hive prices, which will make it easier to reach my HBD goals as well.

True! Patience and reading, both two good virtues to have ;-)

I can get you on the AI stuff. Its potential is enormous, if used correctly. Probably too powerful. We will have major societal issues because of it.

We will have major societal issues because of it.

I believe that you might be right with this one. It won't be easy for a lot of people...
