D'you know 'THAT' moment when you see something out of the corner of your eye and you then proceed to spit your coffee all over?
YUP!
I did see it higher than this but was grasping for my mouse and I gotta be honest, I felt a tinge of excitement and could not steady my hand, because in my minds eye, I saw the new price and imagined that percentage gain in a day again and again...
I just happened to glance up at my screen at the right moment and a vision of a far brighter future for Hive, for crypto and for us all came in to view.
Now I know we must all temper ourselves and not cheer the highs or lament the lows too much.
But how can we possibly help thinking about how we would feel if we saw 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% gains in a day over the next few years? I don't know about you but I freely admit to being 'only human.'
I think many of us have seen spikes like this before, (since the heady days of $3 norm) waited for the impending selloff, saw exactly what we expected to see.
There's another way to look at this though. If we accept that this is the shiny, bright, more optimistic future we expect, then perhaps we should be happy!
Let's call it a redistribution of wealth... Maybe assets is a better term.
If those who do not believe strongly enough in the resilience of the community, those who do not expect sheer brilliance from some of the dev's and idea men and women around, have you saw the huge strides that LEO has made???
Let them sell, right?
If those who do not believe in the very revolution we shall come to see with every last fibre of their being, If they cannot see the way things are going to transpire when all human information and records are stored on blockchains, let them sell...
If they cannot see that Decentralisation is not merely a great idea but abso-bloody-essential when facing a clear and present existential threat to our future, let them sell...
If they cannot look at the actions of Elon and realise that, at the very least, he has created an awesome hedge against inflation and at the most... Well, I dunno about you, but even I dare not let my mind wander and believe that far ahead?
Although it is tempting...
Then I am afraid they had better sell...
I am sure there will be many highs and lows along the way, we all know and LOVE the volatility of crypto, admittedly 'some times more than others' in fact I would go as far as to say that by the time this post is done, that kind of volatility will have caused a violent swing again...
Like I say, I am not particularly concerned at the highs or the lows of today and tomorrow but at the consolidation of what we have here, then the next phase of expansion.
The opportunity I see ahead is that of the redistribution of assets I mentioned...
From the hands of those who do not believe enough to the hands of those who have a steely determination and a crystal clarity to continue the curve in one direction.
Those who will determine EXACTLY what they can do to aid this move toward a far more stable and utilitarian asset, community backed by an ever developing space worthy of them both.
I should say in summing up that we all know people among us who MUST cash in their crypto in order to survive. Obviously these are not the people I am referencing in this post.
Unfortunately though, for those people too, the end result is the same.
My advice to anyone wo is struggling is to look as hard as they possibly can at alternatives to keep the wolf from the door and try and hodl as much crypto as they can easily manage, because the thought of those lost gains at some future date may be simply too much to bare.
I genuinely hope that you and yours are well and about to embark on your greatest ever spell of the journey we call life. May health, wealth, happiness and all of the very best life has to offer be abundant for you and may 2021 prove to be a breakout year for you in all that you would wish for yourselves. Most of all I hope you are surrounded at all turns by love, joy, friendship and happiness.

For those who are able to focus upon the long term, it is vital to keep in mind this is a tremendous wealth building opportunity.
I know many require crypto to pay present obligations. Hopefully they can set aside 10% or more of what they have coming in to long term funding of their wealth.

Absolutely! I have stated my position many times here before, I sincerely believe Crypto and blockchain technology is in it's absolute infancy. We all know, however, just how quickly digital technologies and evolving tech make quantum leaps.
I believe we are on the cusp of just such a leap forward and we are well positioned to ride the wave through to the next level.
You raise a great point, I actually wrote a post regarding the power of 10% earlier this week. If more people would only realise just how easy it is to make the course change to setup a bright financial future, the world would be a markedly different place. I don't believe that the education system or the establishment particularly want this knowledge in the hands of everyday men and women, which only serves to illustrate why it is critical we take charge of our own future.
Thanks ever so much for stopping by and sharing your thoughts, it is greatly appreciated. 😃
When suffering financially, putting 10% (or any amount) aside is tough. However, it is vital people start to focus upon both income and wealth at the same time. It is truly the only way out of the dire poverty people are facing. Yes people need food and medicine but if they can hold a few hundred of some token, if it 100x, then there is a lot of money generated.

ENGAGEtokens.Thanks for the disclaimer. I already felt attacked.
I am trying goddamit!
The reality is: nothing good comes easy and one needs to make sacrifices and be strategic in their pursuit for financial freedom. This is why I have been making conscious effort to grow my stake and account

Nah man, never, I was always gonna get round to that. I have many friends who live hand to mouth and some who need a little of their crypto to make it to the end of the week financially. Some in Venezuela, some from the same region you are from who need to use what they earn here to survive. One of my friends, (she is such a beautiful person) has a car but without the Hive could not put petrol in it.
I totally get that dude, it's a sad and stinkin' fact of life, one that blockchain tech and crypto can help to eradicate I hope, by disrupting the corruption that impedes the money supply to those who need more and makes the inflation loving fools at the top irrelevant.
Thanks for stopping by man, it's been a loooooong time 😎👍
Thanks for your kind words. At the same time I don't want to keep blaming other factors for the quality of my life. I have been given a great opportunity to make something out of my time here and so it is left to me to make do of this opportunity. Many people do not have what I have

Exactly the way one should view oneself, accentuating the gifts and stepping away from the negatives as much as possible. We have one life to live and should give it everything we have to make the most of it. Set those goals and reach as high and far as you can.
