RE: My Hive Goals for 2026 Week #31

in LeoFinance2 days ago

As Hive continues toward its sub penny price coming by 2030 or likely quite b4 that, it will get easier & easier to earn more Hive but less & less dollar value it’s worth as it goes. Personally I’m of the camp it’s easier to sell half of stake at .60 cents and just buy double amount sold for 10% of cash raised at .03 cents. Hard to make a choice to sell at .04 being down so much but people said same at .10 and if they sold half and just powered down 50% of stake they’d be able to buy back twice as much HP for less than all funds raised selling that 50% 18 months ago.

It seems to be the weekly or monthly goals are easy way to loose cash regularly as it’s just being stats if something crashing 50% every 6 months & than some. I get loving Hive community and not powering down 100% , but I kinda don’t get bot selling a portion when Hive is clearly not doing anything but loosing value year over year minus extreme brief mini pumps that would take being liquid and not powered up to take advantage of. It kinda seems like it’s getting to be no different than the hive accounts who have been posting identical post on Steemit daily but they only get bot votes they delegate to buy via having Steem powered up and they seem to not care the value is down 99% and clearly dead with no interaction but they seem addicted to the warning a token that looses way more value yearly than all rewards ever added together.

When we earned half in HBD and could lock in 50% profits that changed the math but now with most powering up the 50% liquid portion it’s just loosing game with a stat increasing that is loosing real value on every time period. Almost like it’s bit of an addiction watching number go up in a token loosing 50% of value every 6 months or worth over longer scale. Just some advice, at least sell the liquid portion to lock in something so the math isn’t just a loss over any period minus extremely fast artificial pumps that last a day or week.

To me it’s quite obvious we are never getting the 90% plus of active accounts back who bailed past two years due to DHF fraud & inflation nonsense that witnesses & whales keep not changing regardless of how bad things get.

Just do urself a favor, if we ever get a longer term artificial pump like December 2024 - January 2025 which I don’t see as likely but if we do, power down a few weeks and sell 33% of stake to then buy it back for 80% less and u can likely double HP or better with still locking in some cash to remove off Hive platform.

Sort:  

Facts. Though it does seem most here don’t care and just like the gamification aspects that make it fun regardless if they loose real value. That’s cool and all but I personally prefer smearing value. I will continue to sell hive above .04 cents and buy it back at .02 cents as you said it’s likely. If someone could make a centralized version of Hive they’d be rich. People really seem to not mind letting dollars go to make Hive number go up. Well till price goes down another 50% which as you say has been pattern every 6 months or so I will earn my pleb amount of Hive daily & keep turning half into HBD well I keep the HP portion powered up.

Are you holding onto the HBD or keeping it liquid? I have just been keeping it as Hive, but I am not sure if I should just change that into HBD. I am just not as sure on HBD to stay that stable though.

I have started keeping it. HBD I mean but I have only like $70 worth. Frankly I have more concerns about HBD over Hive. The peg is held together with pins basically. If the biggest HBD holder tried to get all his funds out we’d see a total mess. I wish they’d stop the peg nonsense to remove much pressure off Hive.
What do you think? @jfang003

@geneeverett what about HBD prediction? Got one?

I don't trust the peg at all, and I don't think it's helping Hive at the current prices. If Hive were healthy, then I think the peg would be fine, but it's not.

I don't think I'll power down, but I have been keeping the liquid portion from the rewards. If we do a longer-term pump, I'll probably remove that portion. I do agree that I should probably power down, but I just can't seem to bring myself to. HBD savings isn't looking that solid either as they cut the APR there, and the DHF cuts were too little and late.

HBD peg will indeed break hard when the biggest holders try to dump. The other reply makes a valid point. Those accounts just keep leaving it to keep compounding, that said they will never likely get it out at a dollar value. The volume is way too low for it to not breakdown when the biggest holders try taking out serious numbers. So yeah the APR keeps going lower but that’s not the main issue. The peg is very weak, it’s just lack of heavy withdrawals keeping it from being an issue. It’s a time bomb. I only keep a few hundred HBD in there for brief periods to earn while I wait to withdraw.

When the year ends, I'll probably take out my HBD from savings and convert it into liquid Hive. I don't trust the liquidity when it comes down to it.
