With the current value of the $Hive token at 5 cents, I started thinking about what strategy to use at the moment. This year I completed 5 years in Hive and saw the token, which when I joined was worth $1, fall to a measly $0.05, which is certainly discouraging, but also, as many say, is the best time to grow.

While I was around $6 or $7, I was withdrawing about $10 a week. This year I decided to withdraw more than usual, precisely to avoid that fear we all have of accumulating and accumulating money and never being able to use it for what we want. I think that as great as growing our HP here is, obviously, being able to use the return from posts or project transfers for our own enjoyment is even better.

But it hurts to see that something around 180 Hive is only $10. So, with that in mind, I think I'll simply take advantage of the moment to grow my HP, and God knows what the future holds. I'll hold onto the Hive I already have in net income, but from the posts, I'll try to focus more on HP. I've been recording some videos and posting them on 3speak; I'll use the payments in a 50/50 or 100% HP split, and from the Peakd posts, I'll start using that new model of 75% HP and the rest net income.

Is that crazy? Yes, will I possibly be losing money? Also, is believing in Hive and continuing to invest more in HP the best option? I don't know, but basically that's what I'll do. If I have an emergency, I can manage; I already withdrew almost $800 from HBD some time ago, precisely because I was afraid it would lose $1 in value, so now there's not much I can do. Sell in desperation to avoid further losses or believe and continue growing.

I think Hive has already given me a lot of good things. I don't think I received what I deserve, but I won't get into that either. After all, we all always think we receive less than we deserve, but I am grateful, whether for money, friendships, or knowledge. I am grateful for everything Hive has done, so now it's about increasing HP more and more and seeing where all this leads.

Like a captain sailing the seven seas, the only way is to go to the end and believe there's a treasure chest, or simply sink with the ship.
