Sometimes there are just no words to describe something. It might be something you see, it might be a situation, it might even be a person or their behavior. That's sort of what happened to us this past weekend as we were strolling through the campground at North Higgins Lake.
We came across a Jeep pulling this very unique camper behind it. Upon closer inspection, it would appear that they took a boat and left it on a trailer and then added a frame to the top to enclose the entire thing.
As long as the trailer for the boat is sound, there isn't really any rule about doing something like this, but I can't say as though I have ever seen anything like it before in my life. Higgins Lake is a pretty big sportsmans lake, so it makes me wonder about the "sea-worthiness" of this vessel. Is it a boat? Is it a camper? Can it go in the water, or does it only travel on land these days?
It is time again for another Finance Friday/Friday Finance. This is a series I started where I talk about random bits of financial stuff that I have seen, gathered, or experienced during the week. I hope as a reader you find it informational, entertaining, or both. I also hope it can generate some good discussion and edify the community.
Like the object in the opening photo, the markets might have you uttering some WTF's to yourself lately as well. I think many of us knew a dip was coming, but we might have not realized just how significant it was going to be. Of course, if you zoom out a bit, you will see that the dip really wasn't much of a dip at all.
At least for BTC.
Hive on the other hand has been a bit of a punch in the gut. It seems like you can't go into any Discord lately where there isn't an abundance of doom and gloom about Hive. Honestly, some of the comments make me wonder why folks still hang around. I mean, if it's that horrible "why are you still here?". There are plenty of other things you can invest in, take your negativity elsewhere.
Don't misunderstand, I know Hive isn't perfect. There are definitely things we should fix, but I still see a lot of positivity here and whatever the price, I still plan on showing up, curating, commenting, and posting like I always have.
Several years ago, @mrsbozz and I were visiting Nashville, TN and we decided to take a tour of the Andrew Jackson estate called The Hermitage. Ever since buying the tickets for the tour, I have been getting a constant stream of emails from the organization. This one came across my inbox the other day and I wanted to share it with the #silvergoldstackers group.
While not the most morally upstanding person, Andrew Jackson did have some interesting views on finance and banking. It would be interesting to see what he thought about cryptocurrency were he still alive today. Would he be for it or against it?
What I do know is that he knew a good deal when he saw one and on some level he must have been a stacker. He picked up the silver dish above and some other items for the sum of $350. Looks like a steal to me and although the picture is quite small, you can still tell the detail on that stag head is pretty impressive.
If you happen to be in the Nashville area, you might want to stop in and take a look at this fantastic piece of history.
ETH Boom
I know others have covered this a bit lately, but the SEC dropped their case against ETH. Like the opening photo where you can't tell if it is a boat or a camper, the debate over whether ETH is a security or not seems to be a moot point now. Given the recent ETF filings and now this decision, ETH seems poised to be one of the hot tickets for this next bull run.
It certainly does feel like there is a lot of momentum building up. I am trying not to get my hopes up too high, but it really does feel like 2025 is going to be life changing. People probably said that about the last bull run too though...

Play with me, become cryptoexchange CEO and get a token airdrop!
💸 2k Coins as a first-time gift
🔥 25k Coins if you have Telegram Premium
I know it isn't for everyone, but if you have a Telegram account, you owe it to yourself to get involved in the new Hamster Kombat game/airdrop. Believe it or not, it now holds the record for subscribers gained in one month. It might just be another memecoin, but this thing has the potential to be pretty big.
Basically, all you do is launch the app and tap on the hamster to earn tokens. You then use those tokens to buy cards and eventually you will get an airdrop based on the cards you hold. It's all going to take place on Telegrams blockchain called TON, so if you don't have a TON wallet, you might want to sign up for one of those too. I use TONKEEPER.
Do your own research of course, but if you haven't jumped in yet and you are curious, feel free to use the referral link from my Tweet above. Some of the cards you can only get if you invite people, so I appreciate your clicks!
That's all I've got this week! I hope you have an awesome weekend and the markets treat you good!
