I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 7 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Much to my great surprise and relief, after reaching an all-time high of 17.94% yesterday morning, the Hive Debt slowly began to fall as the day progressed, with the slow downward trend continuing into today. Presently the Hive Debt is at 17.75%, which is certainly an improvement. This is due, at least in part, to HBD in the DHF no longer being included in the debt calculations since this last Hard Fork (HF28).
I'm going to be keeping a close eye on the Hive Debt from now on, now that I understand how significant it is. If it continues to fall and stabilize, then I might not need to witdraw my HBD from Savings, at least not yet (the idea of adding 6,000+ HIVE to my Hive Power is still quite tempting, however). I'll decide, one way of the other, over the next few weeks.
As I've been mentioning, although I absolutely love BeeSwap, and its token BXT, because of the attitude of the fellow who runs them, and the resulting unreliability, I've made the decision to unstake all my BXT (916.041), to liquidate it, and then acquire as much DBOND, DAB, and RUG as I'm able, as they work together, and would offer a comparable replacement for BXT's daily HIVE payouts (it's supposed to be daily, but it often goes a week or more with nothing). My BXT will unstake by tomorrow morning, and I'm excited and ready to hit the market.
One of the benefits of DBOND, DAB, and RUG, is that they feed into and compound each other, so my holding and stake of both DBOND and DAB will constantly be growing. There's not a whole lot of RUG on the market, so I'm going to clear all open sell orders, before I move on to buying DBOND and DAB. I'm also working to acquire as many of this token triad as I can for the We Are Alive Tribe, to begin building and growing another daily HIVE income stream.
As of this morning, I've invested 7 SWAP.HIVE of my own funds, 1 SWAP.HIVE per day, into building and growing the 'We Are Alive Tribe' financial infrastructure (if anyone feels inspired and motivated to contribute as well, it would be very welcomed, as it would allow me to build more quickly). The more I'm able to grow our income in HIVE, SWAP.HIVE, and BEE, the more it will benefit all of us over time, me included. Things are coming along nicely, but we've still got a fair way to go before we're at the level of income that I have on my own account, though that is indeed what I'm hoping to achieve and exceed for the We Are Alive Tribe as time progresses. We'll get there, step by step.
Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by a little after 2PM, putting my attention on some photography for my posts first. Once I had a nice batch of shots taken, I undertook the formidable task (especially naked!) of weeding in and around my Mysore blackberry bed. My poor fingers still hurt, but it looks so much better now. I was also able to take several good propagules of it, which I'll pot up today. After completing my harrowing blackberry weeding, I cleaned up a bit, then I ended up going on an impromptu plant walk around the property with Trust, a young woman who's staying at GaiaYoga for a while. When our plant walk had come to its natural conclusion, I headed to the Landing to heat myself up some food that I had in the fridge, and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hand(s), I made my way back to the Flow House, to begin my evening Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks. I got everything done by just after 10:30PM, and after some asset management, I went to bed a bit after 11:30PM. I woke up just a little after 6AM, having slept well, doing more asset management, going to make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, then returning to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 12:45PM, so it's a great time to wrap this up, so that I may get to my few other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on some photography for my posts, collecting coconut water and coconut meat from several younger coconuts to start another round of kefir fermentation, and then on community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's edition of these posts! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2025 Life Goals
1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.
2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.
4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.
All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.
Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Also keeping an eye on the Debtratio now! And it keeps going down, not hard, but slow and steady, so that's ok. Currently we are at 17,46%, and this morning it was still 17.16%, so we keep going in the right direction!

Excellent, and I think the more eyes that we have on it the better! Indeed, and it's so good to see! It's been falling for two days straight now, and at the moment it's at 17.31%! It's looking good! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

The general crypto market is going up again as well, so it all looks mildly promising at the moment…

I just keep refreshing all my stats pages, praying that it goes in the right directions :-) And the past 24 hours been pretty ok, not too much change. These days, to be honest, I'm not even expecting growth anymore, I'm already glad if it's nothing going canyon-wise!

I'll have to look into BXT as well as DBOND, DAB, and RUG.
ALIVE dipped recently but I'm auto buying with my bot so happy to get more per HIVE.
Thanks for the info on the tokens and your day. Wishing you all the best!

When everything works correctly, BXT is one of the best for daily HIVE payouts, but that's the thing, it is very spotty and unreliable lately, which is why I'm switching over to DBOND, DAB, and RUG, with liquid DAB giving comparable daily HIVE payouts to BXT.
Indeed, I'm not so happy about the price at the moment, and I wish I had a whole lot more SWAP.HIVE to clear all the sell orders. Good for you, my friend, you're getting ALIVE at a ridiculously low price!
Of course, you're always very welcome, and I'm happy and grateful to share! Many thanks, Kenny, and very likewise, have a wickedly wonderful Wednesday! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
