Hello Everyone,

STOP PRESS

Have you seen the notice about the new "15" token that will be coming out on the @spinvest account? Check this post for all the FAQs:

  • XV TOKENS will sell for 10 weeks at 1 HIVE each (1 billion available - enough for everyone 😎).
  • SPinvest takes all the HIVE from sales and converts it into a basket of 15 cryptos ranked in the top 50
  • SPinvest holds the cryptos in offline wallets (possibly earning an APY with some)
  • Every 6 months, the basket is rebalanced
  • In June 2025, SPinvest converts the crypto basket back into HIVE and buys back XV tokens from investors

Each token costs 1 HIVE, on sale from 1 March-10 May 2023.

1. EDSMM Challenge

Thank you everyone who took part in last week's challenge - lots of great ideas about ways to help people in need.

1 SPI coming @justclickindiva's way for the comment that inspired last week's challenge 😍

As always check out last week's comments.

We had comments from 18 people and we have a winner @servelle - hurrah! check your wallet!

This week the challenge has two options - you can answer either or both 😁.

  • Lots of people commented last week about the difficulty of knowing who was in need. How do you think we could get over that problem?
  • @hoosie had this idea:

Hive common good fund. Maybe a fund could be setup on an account, with say a board to help manage it. It could take delegations and donations to help build it up. It would be invested so that it grows. When a needy cause comes along, applications could be made for help and or the board could decide to make a donation to a good cause. But the core idea would be that the fund continues to grow, so that it has the ability to help even more with greater donations over time.

Is this something that could work? what are your thoughts? or maybe you liked some of @alonicus's suggestions or any of the other ideas from last week.

Let us know your thoughts in the comments for a chance to win an EDSMM.

2. 365 Day Savings Challenge

It's Week 7 on our savings plan and we've added and powered up 3.22 HIVE to @sally-saver's wallet. We're up to 12.25 HIVE already!

EDS for Comments

We had comments from 24 savers! Everyone went into the Wheel of Names and we have winners: @stdd and @successchar - hurrah! check your wallets! 😍

3. Information and Resources

EDS and EDSM Queries

The quickest way to get any queries about payments resolved is to post a message in the #eddie-earner channel of the SPinvest discord: https://discord.gg/RQZubGeeTH and tag @silverstackeruk. Most problems that happen are technical bugs and are quickly resolved once we know about them. Housekeeping for @eddie-earner, EDS, EDSM and EDSMM is usually done on Monday UTC.

Saturday Savers Club Discord Chat

Join us for chat about savings and investments: https://discord.gg/RQZubGeeTH

Ground Rules:

  • The SPI family motto is Get Rich Slowly. This covers EDS, EDSM and EDSMM, the home tokens for the Saturday Savers Club, as well as SPI, LBI and CL. The bottom line is that we are looking for well-researched options which bring a steady income. Good options will have an identifiable and easily accessible team (with emphasis on more than one person involved), a clear plan and use case for the token, and transparency and accountability through regular reporting.
  • Individual members are free (of course they are) to publish guides to tokens under their own account - and any number of members can do that.

I’ll have to grab some XV tokens I think those are going to be great. Takes all emotion out of investing since they will not sell for 2 years.

For the savers. EDS is amazing. Loving the weekly hive I’m getting. Keep it coming.

If any of you are regular posters and have EDS I still think it’s a good idea to sponsor Eddie earner with some hive SBI. Just a thought.

I have invested in Stardom and when i will geg back some of that investment through selling Stardom, i will buy some XV Token. At least 2 hope more ;)

I think it could work, as a foundation like from Nobel, if only the interest are paid, or lets say only 90%, so it can grow.

Thanks a lot for the EDSM 🥰
@Hoosie's idea is a good one, a pooled fund, it could be raised by a dedicated token as well, and the people who hold the token could vote to choose the charity project they prefer from several proposed.

I think having a fund would be useful for the urgent needs, because if said fund is always fundraising, posting so people can upvote and fundraise for it even if they can't donate directly, then it should have a decent sized pot to be able to give to urgent needs when they arise.
For long term needs, the people behind archon coin originally started as a crowdfunding idea, but that got abandoned. I still think crowdfunding for needs on Hive is a good idea too.

PS, you misspelled my name so I still didn't get tagged, lol

Didn't OCD have an incubation project very similar to what was asked about? In a way, I think there are ways to get projects over the starting hump and after that, I think most projects have enough time to decide whether or not they can survive. Then again, that is for communities on Hive and not really for applications.

Here is my update for the week. It's going along well so far.

That's an interesting report - the experience of change 😍
I like tame 😎 Tame is the slow steady inexorable change over time from one thing to another, one day you turn around and it is different. Anyone can do exciting for a week, but tame keeps going.
Same as with your writing, just keep doing it, a little at a time and you will see a big difference. 😍

Thanks for the award, I got it!

The idea hoosie! Especially about the delegation. Delegation won't feel as much in everyone's wallet, but in one place it can do the miracle that is required!

Hive is very handy for initiatives like this if you think about it. Flexibility and execution options can vary. I also like the idea of a token if done right.

The main goal is easy entry and easy exit if money is needed. But there should also be certain perks to motivate people to stay in the fund as long as possible!

Hi All. I gained 38HP, had a few trades go through again, which was nice and then landed a 20k delegation for LPUD. So overall a pretty good week. Full report here:
https://leofinance.io/@hoosie/saturday-savers-club-progress-week-7-2023-18-02-23-won-a-20k-lpud-delegation

I saw the post about the XV tokens, and it sounds pretty darn good to me. I like the idea of buying into crypto without having to worry about picking them, etc.

And for these weeks comp - I agree that selecting those in need is the difficulty. I'd like to think that the vast majority are legit, and that its a minority of con-artists that spoil it. However, with HIVE's community orientated approach, I've noticed that those that are not genuine soon get found out/weeded out. So maybe HIVE's ethos is what would make it easier to find those in need, because someone would already know who is in need and whether they are genuine or not.

Anyway, best of luck for the week ahead everyone !!!

The Hive common good fund sounds a great idea and I think it will work. The challenge might lie on who is going to manage the account and how fast it is going to be initially funded. But knowing that there are many good hearted Hivians, this might not be much of a problem.😊

Meanwhile, I have not been able to make my progress report post but here are my numbers and how they have grown from that of last week:

  • Leo Power (Main goal): 9,661 LP (increased by 853 LP)
  • Hive Power (Sec. goal): 810 HP (increased by 37HP)

Thank you lots and lots :)

Congratulations to the winners. The creation of a fund seems useful to me. In any case, when delegating RC, it doesn't seem to me that you have to be very strict, we are all interested in having activity in Hive.

I had a slow but steady week and layer 2 tokens will give me the necessary boost at the end of the month.

I've been so disorganised for the last week or two !

I did my update post on Saturday - https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@alonicus/saturday-savers-2023-progress-report-week-7 but then got totally diverted by real life. I haven't done either this week or last week's SBI's that I promised; I haven't forgotten, but it looks like the SBI program is having a bit of a glitch right now, so I'll do it once I know the transfers are back to going through okay (I've got a few others that are currently in limbo, funds sent but SBI's not yet appeared).

In terms of this week's discussion question, I like Hoosie's ideas a lot 😀

I think a fund based on delegated HP (and ideally HBD, although that's not something that can be done yet) is certainly a good way to distribute funds in a major emergency like the recent earthquakes, and also good for social projects like well-building. I don't favour creating a new token for it, it seems unnecessarily complex and creates a risk of the program failing if the token drops to zero.

The more I think about it, the more I'm concerned that dealing with individual requests could become problematic. It's unlikely we could meet what is an almost infinite demand (potentially leaving those who don't get anything blaming Hive for letting them down). Individual donations are also far more at risk of corruption - all it takes is a recipient to be somehow connected to whoever makes the decisions and the perception could be there even if it isn't real.

But don't get me wrong; I fully support this idea, I just think it's essential to think of what could go wrong or could damage Hive's reputation so that we can put processes in place to keep the program on the right track and free from even the perception of issues.

Congrats to this weeks winners. This week I am late doing this comment as I have
been running around.

I have been buying up tokens this week again when folks are selling them cheap.

I see EDS tokens are up this week again, I hope they come down a bit next wee so I can buy some more of them.

Doing well with my 2 main goals and hope to that up as well.

Hope all are having a great week.

Unlike most folks I am hoping that the bear market hangs on for another month or two so I can get a bunch more tokens before the next bull run.

Have a great week

Hello, there!
I'm late this week to stop by, but I'm here:)

I will take a look at the token 15 looks interesting.

The creation of a fund to help those in need is a great idea. Perhaps a bit laborious to set up, but for a good cause it is worth the effort. The Hive community can be very supportive of the needs of others, at least that's what I've seen so far. So it's worth a try.

As for my goals, here's how I'm doing so far.
https://leofinance.io/@coquicoin-leo/leothreads-and-lpud-have-saved-my-week-ssc-week-7
At the moment a little better Leo goal than HP but we are moving forward.

Cheers🤗🌱

Warm greetings savers!

Here's my weekly goals and progress update!

I like @hoosie's idea quite a lot, and I see if functioning perhaps in a similar fashion to the DHF (Decentralized Hive Fund), where people could perhaps vote on who and what receives funding. Determining priority of need, verifying the reality of the situation, and then effectively providing assistance in a practically usable form are the main significant issues to iron out. I think that this sort of thing is a natural development within the Hive Blockchain Ecosystem, as it inherently has immense potential to help a great many people worldwide. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

In my country, when there is call for funds support to the needy, there is always an assessment on their current actual income, their total household income, the kind of house they live in and other factors to assess the requestor's financial situation.

So maybe on this aspect, we can adopt a similar approach for the applicant to fill up a form with supporting documents for the funding board to assess and documented when decision is made to disburse the fund.

Happy weekend to all!
