Hello all! Another week and it's time again to do another #myhivegoals post, a series idea started by started by @jongolson. I'm going to look at the progress I've made on my Hive goals, as well as give a few tokens I'm looking at right now. If you are here for the comment SBI giveaway, well, we'll get to that too.

Let's start with my Hive goals.

~ Hive & HBD ~

My current goal is 25k Hive.

This past week I made 204.180, bringing me to 18,103.59 total Hive Power. That's 72.4% of my goal!

Let's do the math. 25k - 18,103.59 gives us 6896.41. Divided by the rest of the days in the year, we get 61.6 Hive needed per day to reach 25k. Man, this is getting out of control. It was 59.7 last week. Is this speeding up?! My weekly earns have increased over the past year, but not enough it seems to stem this tide.

Oh well. I will remain hopeful that a nice whale starts upvoting me everyday for a lot, helping me reach reverse this trend.

~ BRO, PIMP, and LGN ~

I did pick up a few BRO this past week, moving up to 513.503. Still a ways away from the 1000 needed to be a dragon, but at least I'm over the half-dragon hump now.

For PIMP I gained 352.844 from curation and posting this week, which seems to be right at my average for the past few weeks. That brings me to 56,142.853. The top level for PIMP is 100k which again I'm pretty far from and probably won't get to anytime soon.

I didn't pick up any LGN except for the 1.125 that dropped in from delegating to @stickupcurator bringing me to 661.793. But I've been watching the internal market—it's going for around .9 right now, which is a pretty good deal. As soon as Ray buys up all the extra from the airdrop floating around, the price will likely be set to what it was before, which was around 1.4 I think. If you believe in the project, now is a great time to buy!

That stuff out of the way, let's do our SBI drawing! If you are new here, I give away 5 shares of SBI every week to commenters on this post. If I get under five commenters, I try to divide it up as best as possible, and if I get over five, I do a random drawing.

So how about this week? Let's see... last post we had comments from @kerrislravenhill @bozz @mdasein @bhattg @bitcoinman @coinjoe @littlebee4 @pocketechange @cryptictruth.

And the winners are @bhattg @cryptictruth @littlebee4 @mdasein @bitcoinman

Congrats!

And forward we go! It was a strong week. Let's see how this coming one goes!
