Morning run in forest, with a little bit of rain but nothing much
This morning’s run through the forest came with a light drizzle, but it was more refreshing than inconvenient. The rain added a coolness to the air. It’s funny how a bit of rain can actually enhance the experience—it kept the trail quiet and gave everything a slightly more vibrant look.

I made a solid move this month by increasing my $BRO stake from 181 to 221. That’s a 22% growth in under a month, which I’m pretty happy with, especially considering how stable the returns have been. The weekly drip bumped up by 0.008 HIVE—not huge on paper, but it adds up fast over time, and every little bit supports my compounding strategy.

I also increased my DAB holdings from 429 to 481, locking in a 12% gain in the process. The daily drip rose by 0.086, which is a nice bump and makes a visible difference when planning longer-term reinvestments. DAB has been quietly consistent, and that’s exactly what I’m looking for when trying to build a diversified passive income base.

Once again, $BRO is seeing strong volume, and that momentum is directly fueling my next round of Hive power-ups. It’s becoming a reliable engine for growth, and I’m leveraging it fully while the momentum is there. At the same time, I’m keeping an eye on my LTC lockups—I’d like to reduce that exposure a bit if the market gives me a good out. The idea is to shift more into assets that pay out passively without tying up too much liquidity. If $BRO and others can keep holding strong, I may be able to rebalance without taking a hit.
