Introduction
Good day to everyone, hope all of you are doing ok. It had been a crazy week in the office after returning back from the festive period as some of my colleagues were on a longer leave period as they headed back tot their hometown to celebrate the new year with their family and only came back a week later. Things have been busy and also with the massive strikes on Hive-Engine, there were less activity this week but the city did continue to generate good income through dailies and sales.
What is dCity?
The game is a city simulator game based on Hive NFTs where one can create a city the way we want it to be. As players develop and grow their cities, optimization is needed in terms of buildings, city population, the income that the city yields and technological developments. While many aspects of the game can be calculated based on the simulator within the game, there is a portion of randomness in the form of crisis event which can bring different kind of impact to city which affects income or popularity. If you like the original SimCity, I am sure you will like this.
My City and Intermediate Plans
The below screenshot is how my city looks like at this moment:
City
With the taxes and adjustments that happened throughout the week, my daily SIM income managed to resolve and landed at 78 SIM. Not too bad considering the passive. Interim goal will be to look at means to increase this amount to at least 100 SIM per day. I will have to look into ways where I will be able to add in additional income efficiently. Whether to opt for the high income method of barber shop or ice cream shop method where for obtaining more income with fewer workers or to continue acting on improving tax refund. Both methods work but definitely also depend on the market situation on which NFT will be cheaper to obtain to quickly push myself to 100 SIM income.
Today the wind turbine that I have stands at 12 which is approximately 50% of what I am shooting for, no change to number of wind turbines. The goal towards obtaining a wind farm is always there and very attractive. Key is also to snap up NFTs regularly to keep up my progress and finally combine them all into a wind farm for a good amount of tax refund. There is loads of monitoring of market to be done so I definitely need to see how I can effectively do so while have a very busy schedule.
SIM Millionaire Goal Progress
| Current | Goal | Delta |
|---|---|---|
| 308k | 1M | 692k |
A steady amount of SIM build up saw improvement in the current SIM holdings. While it a figure of about 5000 SIM, it is considerable substantial and really decent considering the amount of time I've spent this week on the game.
Current SIM Holdings
At the moment of writing, the current amount of SIM I am holding has reached 308,720 SIM. SIM increase this week mainly coming from the sales of young citizens where we've manage to offload quite a number. Price fluctuation for new citizen prices continue to be big so hopefully it can maintain at a higher number so that we can earn more SIM from it. Let's continue to grow and grow, charging towards the goal of getting 1 million SIM especially thankful after meeting a new SIM holdings milestone.
Why Hold SIM?
This is reminder to all that holding SIM (or commonly known as SIM Power) brings about daily liquid hive if one having above 8000 SIM Power. SIM Power is calculated by the from the 30 days average SIM holdings.
With the increase in SIM in my Hive Engine, the 30 day average of my SIM power will continue to increase and then translate to move liquid Hive earning per day. Amount of liquid Hive per day based on current 30 day average is as seen below:
Assuming no increase in Sim Power (which is not possible with my city still generating income), I will be getting 0.57 liquid Hive per month. We've maintain with no increase from last week but with more sales and increase in SIM holdings, I certainly hope to grow this amount bit by bit as the days progress. This amount that is earned passively will aid me in my goal where I am hoping that with this continuous building of the passive liquid hive accumulation, and when the goal is hit, I will be able to fully fund for the minimum hive power up requirement for Hive Power Up of 10 HP solely from this. And this will need me to be able to accumulate 0.333 Hive per day in order to do so. Right now due to reduced liquid hive gotten per day, while I am further away from my goal of 0.333 liquid Hive per day.
While liquid hive rewards are not coming for the past 2 days, hopefully hive engine side which recently had attacks will recover soon and all rewards will resume.
Closing
I witness how from a crazy outage happening on Hive Engine happening similarly to how a power outage was experienced in my office. And similar between both things is that people do come together and get things moving to restore and recover to previous working state. Commendable efforts was seen and things restored really quickly to enable the community to function normally once again.
Looking forward to more on my journey of growing the city as it matures and progresses!
