I’ve been on a long hiatus from Hive. Life stacked up, my posting rhythm broke, and I let the habit slip. Today I’m turning the lights back on, not just to write again, but to reconnect with the network of friends that made Hive feel like a small, stubborn corner of the internet that actually builds.

Why now? Because price is down and sentiment is meh. That’s exactly when I prefer to plant seeds. I don’t know where the bottom is (no one does), but I do know that accumulation during bearish stretches has historically rewarded patience far more often than chasing green candles ever did. So I’m rebuilding my Hive account with a long-term lens, slow, consistent, and boring on purpose.
What to expect from me going forward:
- Crypto views: cycle context, what’s signal vs. noise, and how I’m thinking about risk when everything feels either “dead” or “going to the moon tomorrow.”
- Finance notes: basic cash-flow discipline, realistic return expectations, compounding, and the occasional macro angle that actually matters for retail investors.
- Investing on-chain: my day-to-day in the Hive ecosystem, staking, curation habits, power-ups, and the systems I’ll use to track progress.
My simple plan:
- Dollar-cost average into HIVE and power up regularly. I’ll treat HPUD and the quieter weeks between as checkpoints.
- Earn and recycle, curate daily, keep rewards compounding, and avoid the temptation to get fancy with leverage or hype rotations.
- Document the process, weekly mini-updates, monthly scorecards (power, curation, posts), and one “lessons learned” entry each quarter.
Candidly, I’m here for the long game. I expect rough patches, sideways charts, and moments I’ll question my thesis. That’s fine. I want systems that work through boredom and fear, because that’s where most of the edge lives.
If you’ve been around, I’d love a quick “hello” so I can re-sync with your work. If you’re new to my feed, welcome, I try to be skeptical enough to avoid traps and optimistic enough to keep building. Either way, I’m back, I’m invested, and I’m committed to doing the unglamorous work while it’s still unfashionable.
See you in the comments, and on-chain.
