Greetings, everyone!
Today I celebrate my 8th birthday on the Hive blockchain! Well, eight years ago, the Hive blockchain did not exist under the current name, but it was the legacy blockchain that I used to sign up.
Right, my username also gives me away as an old-schooler, and I was choosing it as I decided before I started that I'll not give up this-not before I'll reach a million STEEM or HIVE. There's still a long way to this, and perhaps it's something that I'll never be able to achieve. Nevertheless, every step closer to my dream is a happy step!
Happy birthday to me!

Live long and prosper!

Happy anniversary! 🥳🎉 Hold on!
My 8th birthday will be just in October 😉
Nice! So, more or less, we join at the same time. Here, enjoy some !PIMP & !PIZZA. Looking forward to your anniversary post!
In this case I can suggest to take a couple !BEER 🍻 to !PIZZA
@travoved, sorry! You need more to stake more $PIZZA to use this command.
The minimum requirement is 20.0 PIZZA staked.
More $PIZZA is available from Hive-Engine or Tribaldex
Happy Hiverssary.
I'm just few years here, and seeing you celebrate 8 years is a testament that Hive is a good place to belong to, and I'm motivated to continue showing up and being consistent with my grind here.
Hoping you achieve your million dream.

Thanks for the best wishes! Hive is, in my opinion, the best place on blockchain these days, judging from the state of the ecosystem.
!PIMP & !PIZZA
Congrats on those 8 years my friend! And keep going for those dreams of a million!! One day…!!!

Thanks for the greetings!
I just checked the parameters of your witness, and I liked what I saw. You have my vote.
!PIMP & !PIZZA
Thank you very much! Appreciated!
Out of curiosity (and seeing it as a learning opportunity ;-) ): what are the parameters you checked and deem important?

It was important for me that you keep your node updated (not necessarily the latest version, but also not a very old one), and then I looked at the number of misses and the APR (I believe we should move back to 20%).
Thanks for your passion!

Passion is my main driver!! ;-) Always, and in everything I do (or at least, as much as possible :-D ).
Yeah, agreed on the keeping it updated topic… upon working on mine, I noticed that there are waaaay too many dead or comatic witnesses out there, still receiving waaaay too many votes as well. Wrote a post about it, and I might post it today or tomorrow.
Regarding the APR, yes, I agree on the 20% I see why they went down from 20 to 15, but I have the idea that it is missing its goal, and “punishing” (for as much as you can call a 15% APR a punishment ;-) ) the good Hive users as well…

Happy 8th anniversary on Hive.
Happy 8th birthday. It is amazing to see such long-term commitment in this space. Cheers to many more milestones ahead.
Best regards
Happy birthday! 8 years is a high milestone.
BTW, when are you again around? Would give a !BEER out.
Thank you, Alex! I don't travel to Munich often. I'm for one year without my "corporate job" and I'm trying something as a sole entrepreneur, which means for me a lot of pressure on managing personal expenses.
