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

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.
