I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
I had a pleasant surprise yesterday when I noticed that I had a small bit of SWAP.BTC and SWAP.ETH sitting in my wallet. This was wonderful, but very perplexing, because even though several diesel/liquidity pools where I have assets do have daily liquidity rewards, I was not past the stake threshold to receive any yet. So I dove into my Hive-Engine transaction history, and I soon found that those two tokens were sent to me from the @sbtofficial account. I knew that the monthly dividend drips for having 100,000 staked SBT were supposed to be starting again soon, and I had been staking every bit of SBT for quite a good while, in my mini-quest to reach the 100K payout threshold. The timing worked out perfectly, because it was only last week that I finally surpassed 100K staked SBT. Nifty!
Drips that I received over 2 days:
0.00000007 SWAP.BTC
0.00000007 SWAP.BTC
0.00000031 SWAP.ETH
0.00000031 SWAP.ETH
0.00682601 SWAP.DOGE
0.00683149 SWAP.DOGE
0.02 PIZZA
0.003855 POB
1.54 MEME
Once that I saw from where these coveted tokens came, I went to check the @sbtofficial's profile for updates, and lo and behold, there was indeed an update post, SBT Update! It was a short, straight-to-the-point post, with the most relevant bit of information being shared below.
From the post:
I hope you are still holding SBT because starting tomorrow drips will begin to run again. I will start the drips approximately 12:00PM GMT. I will be making the drips 1x per month and stakeholders of 100,000+ SBT will split the following amounts.
2000 DEC
200 SPS
20 VOUCHER
10 DOGE
.00001 BTC
.00045 ETH
250,000 STARBITS
2,000 HUESO
20,000 PEPE
20 PIZZA
1,000 MEME
5 POB
40 WEED
500 SIM
Remember, each drip determines how much over 100,000 SBT you have staked. I hope members are still holding. The above amount is numbers that are based on the current account holdings split by 12 months.
Now mind you, my amount of staked SBT is still quite small, so I was happy to see that I did still receive at least some of those valuable assets, even with my modest holding. Given that the price of SBT is still so low, I just bought and staked another 12,500 SBT, giving me a new total of 120,869.471 staked SBT. I plan to continue buying more as resources allow.
While all the assets that go out as dividends are useful and valuable in their own way, I'm most interested in the SWAP.BTC, SWAP.ETH, and SWAP.DOGE, since they tie to valuable off-chain assets that will all very likely increase massively in fiat value very soon. I'm putting the SWAP.BTC and the SWAP.ETH into the CENT:SWAP.BTC and the CENT:ETH pools respectively, to further leverage these very useful assets.
With monthly dividend payouts beginning once again, SBT is now moving onto my lists of most-useful income tokens, and assets to actively acquire moving forward. Having monthly drips in the above-mentioned off-chain SWAP tokens, especially as I grow my stake, is going to become very useful indeed, especially when those assets explode in value soon. Have I mentioned how much I love asset management?
Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House, once I had finished my Hive tasks, a little after 2PM, and although I had hoped to take some photos for these posts, the cloudy, rainy weather made that a no-go, so I redirected my attention to straining and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) in the Landing. When I had that done, I got my machete and collected a wheelbarrow full of assorted edible foliage for cow-milking food, mostly in the rain. As soon as I had cow food finished, I took a hot shower, stopped by the Landing to collect my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and then I made my way back to the Flow House, to get into my evening round of Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I had to pause that for a while to go attend the Monday logistics meeting, after which I returned to the Flow House to get back to Hive. I had a lot of notifications last night, so I wasn't able to get fully caught up before I had to make myself stop at 11:30PM, at which point I did some asset management, and a quick scan of my X feed, before going to bed around 12AM. I woke up about 6:30AM, after having slept well, doing more asset management, beginning on this post, getting out of bed around 8AM to go make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, and then returning to the Flow House to write this post. I did also get a fair bit of photography in the beautiful morning sun. It's now just after 12:15PM, so a splendid time to end this post, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to first focus on taking a few more photos, doing the dry-goods order in Tutu's, leading a clearing-and-weeding party in the fenced garden, and finally collecting cow food. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until the next expression of this post tomorrow! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2025 Life Goals
1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.
2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.
4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.
All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.
Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
