Nothing Lasts Forever! Even this Scary Bear Market!
I Have Lost Money Before!
This really feels like no big deal.
Comparatively speaking, of course.
I learned a few hard lessons before I got here.
The biggest one:
Don't put in anything I can't afford to lose.
This is the only roller coaster I have been on that won't make me sick to my stomach.
So, however long this thing called a Bear Market is going to last, I am as prepared for it as I can be.
Friday the 13th Buy Day
Actually turned out pretty well for the amount of Hive I was able to get for my weekly $12.50.
Happy I already had the Coinbase app on my phone because the website was acting a bit strange on my computer. It wasn't sending my LTC to Blocktrades to buy the Hive tokens.
So I just scanned the QR code using Coinbase to get the wallet to send my LTC on Blocktrades. Kind of glad that happened because I like learning new ways to get stuff done. And that was pretty simple.
I already had 5.312 Swap.Hive sitting in my Hive Engine wallet from earlier in the week. After the 23.49 I deposited trading some more tokens, I ended up with 29.11246854 Swap.Hive to reinvest in tokens this week.
I used 10.8 Hive to purchase 20 more HE-Index tokens for 0.54 Hive each.
I bought and staked 9.656 more LISTNERDS right on the site at 2 Hive each. So that pretty much took care of the rest of my Swap.Hive.
I went over to the Chances area on LISTNERDS to see if I could win this week.
Nope! However, I am staying pretty steady in the top 25 of the ListNerds Rich List. That's kind of fun.
And here is my LISTNERDS progress this week:
LISTNERDS Staked on ListNerds
Total as of 5/7: 1541.762
5/8 Claimed and staked: 148.041 (118.300 from a verified solo mail sent on 5/7 that was paid out today and 29.741 earned passively from having staked LISTNERDS) New total: 1689.803
5/9 Claimed and staked: 32.448 New total: 1722.251
5/10 Claimed and staked: 33.331 New total: 1755.582
5/11 Claimed and staked: 155.642 (Email from 5/3 was verified and paid out at 121.857 LISTNERDS and earned 33.785 passively from staked LISTNERDS) New total: 1911.224
5/12 Claimed and staked: 124.967 (88.198 from email on 5/4 that was verified and paid out and 36.769 earned passively from having staked LISTNERDS) New total: 2,036.191 Hit Goal of 2000 LISTNERDS set on May 6th. New Goal: 3000 (Challenging myself a little bit)
5/13 Claimed and staked: 150.760 (111.620 from an email sent on 5/5 verified and paid and 39.14 earned passively from staked LISTNERDS) 2186.951
Bought and staked 9.656 more @ 2 Hive each. New Total: 2196.607
5/14 Claimed and staked: 151.259 (Email from 5/6 verified and paid out at 109.027 LISTNERDS and 42.232 earned passively from having LISTNERDS staked) New total: 2347.866
My daily passive earnings continue to increase as I stake more LISTNERDS tokens. Most days I am able to read all the mails in my Inbox so with my upgrade to Enterprise I get the most MAIL tokens I can get for reading mails.
I am still not using the mailer as much as I could and should for my upgrade level. That will change soon too.
Increased my LISTNERDS holdings by 806.104 this week.
That is an increase of about 52.3%
Next Goal: 3000 LISTNERDS
At 2196.607 I am 73% there.
CTP Power on CTPtalk:
Total as of 5/7: 46828.872
5/8 Claimed and staked: 75.879 New total: 46904.751
Also able to withdraw the 3364.658 CTP tokens from ListNerds to Hive Engine and stake here on CTPtalk. New total: 50269.409
5/9 Claimed and staked: 22.57 New total: 50291.979
5/10 Claimed and staked: 23.871 New total: 50315.85
5/11 Claimed and staked: 14.124 New total: 50329.974
5/12 Claimed and staked: 38.689 New total: 50368.663
5/13 Claimed and staked: 0.31 New total 50368.973
Claimed and staked another 24.169 on Hive Engine New total: 50393.142
5/14 Claimed and staked: 15.131 New total: 50408.273
The big increase of 3,579.401 CTP tokens happened because of the over 3K I brought back over from LISTNERDS last week.
So, the percentage increase was a little more than usual at 7.64%.
I just decided that my next goal here will be 75K CTP tokens. It will probably take me awhile to get there.
CTP Power on List Nerds
Total as of 5/7: 8,660.041
5/8 Claimed and staked: 7.000 New total: 8,667.041 (3,364.658 unstaked CTP tokens from last week became available to withdraw to Hive Engine and stake on CTPtalk)
5/9 Claimed and staked: 7.685 New total: 8674.726
5/10 Claimed and staked: 9.071 New total: 8683.797
5/11 Claimed and staked: 7.697 New total: 8691.494
5/12 Claimed and staked: 17.445 New total: 8708.939
5/13 Claimed and staked: 12.872 New total: 8721.811
5/14 Claimed and staked: 16.608 New total: 8738.419
An increase of 78,378 CTP tokens staked here. I am still getting CTP tokens as rewards for my staked CTP.
That's about it for this week. I wanted to get finished up today a little earlier. Going to go outside and read to take advantage of the nicer weather today.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
See you next time.
They told me if I killed myself now it would save the lives of countless others.
Saying the longer I wait to kill myself the more people will suffer.
They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

Its a terrorist act on American soil while some say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic and foreign threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?
Great progress. The lower prices for Hive is a benefit that most do not see. All they see is the red from the price drop and that their holding are worth less. It is all on sale right now and we do not know how long this sale will last, maybe a few days, weeks or months. Take care.

Thanks very much, David! That is exactly how I am looking at it. Embracing whatever comes along on this journey. How can we make it work for us? And help others see that it can be a good thing. Have a great day and take care! 😀

We are all ok. And will be even better.
So 12.50 USD using litecoin and blocktrades got you 23.49 hive? Seems like more would have left to fees.
Thank you for sharing your journey. I love seeing growth on the blockchain.

You're very welcome, @metzli. I am not one for journaling so the blogging is a way for me to track my journey. The fees are not too bad on Coinbase. They were less on Uphold but I was having a hard time using my debit card there. That is why I switched over. Have a great day! 😀

Good report, Lisa. You are doing well in meeting your goals. Keep it up.

Thanks, John! That is the plan! Have a great day! 😀

Keeping my fingers crossed to be able to share that news one of these weeks. In the meantime I just keep stacking and staking what I am getting. Have a great day, @rzc24-nftbbg!

Exactly, @generikat! It's just a great big sale that we need to enjoy while it lasts. We are enjoying it, thanks! It was cooler yesterday and it rained so we had to come back inside. Not supposed to be quite as warm here. I'm good with that. Won't melt if we don't run the AC. Have a great day! 😀

Good Morning and Thank you, @pizzabot! Enjoy your day.😀
Great weork Lisa. I like how you have your buying crypto into an almost automatic process.
Thanks, @mypathtofire! It would be great to figure out how to automate more of it but some is better than none. Have a great day! 😀
!CTP
Your numbers are looking good. I appreciate you sharing them with us.
Thanks very much, @rcaine! It helps keep me motivated too! Have a great day! 😀
!CTP
Top 25 is a great feat to achieve and am just a little behind you, you are doing great! congrats and for the bear, the lesson i learnt is to always take profit
Thanks very much, @burlarj! I was staying away from looking at the richlist for some time. I didn't want to be tempted to be overly competitive or to compare myself and my progress to others. But it is kind of fun just to see how I am doing once in awhile. At this point I don't have to take anything out. But I get that some people will want or need to do that. Enjoy your day😀
