RE: I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1203 - Payout-Script Challenges Due to Ongoing Attacks on Hive and Hive-Engine Nodes - Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Wednesday, November 12, 2025

Two people have already offered to send the extra HIVE back, and one already did so. Thankfully Bjorn was able to get everything working correctly again, after a complete script rewrite, and sacrificing a lot of HIVE to testing and replacing the lost HIVE.

Either one could work, but I'm much more active every day. It's really better to just send any extra HIVE to @aliveandsocial, since that's where we're keeping our surplus now. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Since I don't know which of the HIVE sent by Bjorn's !ALIVE bot are "excess" !INSTEAD of "intended", I just sent back all of the HIVE tokens that I received from the #AliveAndThriving official Hive account from November 13 to 15 this year (UTC). 🤗 That amount is significantly less than 1 HIVE anyway. 😅

Oh, OK, that works, and thank you. We've got it mostly ironed out, though the payouts were missed today for some reason, so moving forward it shouldn't happen again. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

It's (much) less worse for payments to be missed compared to payments being unintentionally repeated, as it is easy to simply make the script catch up with the missed payments anytime, but it is not possible to make the script (or any human or AI) take back what it already sent (on an immutable blockchain which is Hive in this case). 🤯🤓

Yep, indeed, that's very true. I sure wish the previous version of the script simply missed the payouts, rather than draining almost our entire balance of HIVE. That's why I keep our surplus HIVE on another account now, which thankfully also makes running the numbers quicker and easier too. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
