βKeep Jivinβ and Hivinβ dear #saturdaysavers!β πΆ
Another week down, another step forward! And a pretty nice one at that!
π Growth Overview
This week showed solid progress, mainly thanks to buying a bit of the dip, which paid off beautifully in both Hive Power and token growth. It would've been even better, but due to all the Hive Engine issues, apparently 50 of my ordered HIVE.SWAP got stuck at Beeswap. Hope to see them again soon! The HP chart keeps climbing, and I'm now standing strong at 13,395 HP, getting ever closer to that 15K goal.
Metric | Last Week | This Week | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
Hive Power | 13,076 HP | 13,395 HP | πΌ +319 HP |
HBD | 1,515 | 1,535 | πΌ +20 |
EDSI | 193 | 197 | πΌ +4 |
BBHO | 11,030 | 11,202 | πΌ +172 |
BXT | 402 | 403 | πΌ +1 |
LEO | 544 | 545 | πΌ +1 |
π₯ 3 out of 6 yearly goals achieved, and the others are clearly within reach.
π§ This Week in Hive (and Chaos)
This week wasnβt all sunshine and curation rewards, it was another βkeeping the ship afloatβ kind of week. Yes. Again.
Hive-Engine continued throwing tantrums (also yes, again), and one of the payout scripts decided to join the rebellion. The culprit? A rate-limit bug paired with a massive payout load(lots of people love Alive it seems!). Still, most systems ran smooth, and the few hiccups were quickly fixed (I hope).
On the human side of thingsβ¦
The overall busy life period continues, pulling time away from daily Hive posting and engagement.
Replying to comments, sadly, still lagging behind. I see them all, I appreciate every one of them, and Iβll get back when life gives me some breathing room.
Walking: also took a backseat (those daily kilometers arenβt walking themselves, apparently).
But hey, even when things get hectic, the witnesses stayed online, the bots kept tipping, and the stack kept growing.
π οΈ Dev & Witness Corner
Botlord Network: all witnesses humming along nicely again β including the Hive-Engine node, despite all its drama.
Payout scripts: under review to better handle large batch limits; itβs like training a toddler to share toys, slow progress, but weβll get there.
Future plans: preparing some code updates and optimizations for smoother delegation payouts and better resource management.
If you havenβt already, remember you can support the work by voting for @botlord on Ecency's Witness Page or PeakDβs Witness Page. Every vote helps keep this ecosystem strong. πͺ
π§οΈ Real Life Update
Between work pressure, Hive-Engine storms, and life being... life, this week tested the limits of multitasking. But I'm still standing. Still coding. Still stacking. And as always, still believing in the long game Hive offers: slow, steady, and beautifully decentralized.
Hereβs to better weeks ahead, less chaos, and more curation!
Some weeks are about growth.
Some weeks are about survival.
This week? It was a bit of both.
The progress is real, the systems are holding, and the goals are still within sight.
As always: keep jivinβ, keep hivinβ, and keep stackinβ! π§‘

Congratulations on your very nice HP jump, my friend! I wish I had more investment liquidity to have been able to buy the HUGE dip! I past 14.000 HP last week, and I'll easily surpass 14,100 HP this week, so I may actually reach 15,000 HP before the end of the year without another boost. On the Alive-dividends front, HIVE is being consistently sent out successfully now, but as you've likely noticed, the payouts for the layer-2 tokens is still super spotty, but it is stable and mostly functional, so that's glorious! πππβ¨π€

Yup, saw your 14000HP line being crossed! Nice!! Very nice!! And indeed, your 15k HP goal is clearly in sight now!
Yeah, the liquidity issue when there are dips, a typical problem, and magnified x1000 for you of courseβ¦
For the Alive payouts, will try to look deeper into it again later this week if all works out well. It keeps hitting limits, but I need to find a way around them ;-)

Thankie muchly, brother, and yes, this is going more quickly than I expected!
Yep, investment liquidity is a bugger indeed, but I'm doing pretty well overall. I'll make another fiat investment soon, and I'll see where the price of HIVE is by that point.
All the ALIVE dividends, both HIVE and all the layer-2 tokens worked as intended today, and for Bradley too! Super congratulations on that, and thank you so much! Now we just need to bump up the amounts of the layer-2 tokens going out. πππβ¨π€

Sounds like a few good plans! :-) Both the fiat investment, and the bumping of the amounts :-) We'll look into it in the coming days, seeing how much the in- and outflow is exactly of each token, and adjust to it. Optimize the rewards for the folks!

Thankie muchly, and I do my bestest! That sounds excellent, and yep a good assessment and optimization to get maximum token output. The payout script seems like it needs a little more love again, as no ALIVE dividends, in either layer 1 or layer 2, arrived today. πππβ¨π€

It's more the Hive-Engine RPC nodes that require some more love :-) Appears that they were under attack... again!

Yep, I see that indeed. Hive Engine is being hit hard from multiple sides, with transaction attacks, which made the rate limits necessary, and with the DDOS attacks. Someone's trying to make Hive Engine go bye bye it would seem. πππβ¨π€
