I am Officially A Minnow - BOW TO ME!!!!

avatar

This has been a long time in the making but I HAD to write a post to celebrate this milestone! And because I am super excited I also decided to do something fun to reward all of you. Since the only reason I got this far is because of all of you.

CommentRewarder is set to 100% Beneficiary

Yup that means I get zero profit from this post and it all goes back to you all. CommentRewarder is simple if you are not familiar with it. Basically the author forfeits a percentage of their earnings from a post and it gets distributed to people who comment on the post and the author upvotes their comments.

Now my upvotes still are not that great, but I will attempt to upvote every comment with a equal-ish amount of weight/power but yeah don't expect a lot from my upvotes alone lol.


But that can't be all this post is about can it? Well yeah basically haha. I just am so excited that I wanted to share it all with you and by share it I mean brag tell you about it and also give back via the CommentRewarder bot.

As since, well this is all open for anyone to see I might as well just share it all! YOLO

Here are my HiveBuzz stats!

I am working on other badges as well but it's slow going!

It is crazy to me that in the short 5ish months I have been posting on Hive I have already accumulated 941HP in rewards ($250)

Now that being said.. I have spent more than that on sending in crypto in the forms of LTC/WAX/ETH to swap for Hive to either buy more Splinterlands stuff or Holozing stuff. But like I have said before, I don't intend to every withdraw my Hive/HivePower/HDB unless knock of wood I get bad medical shit I have to pay for or I retire in like 30 years.

Until then... I am going to try to accumulate as much as physically possible so that I can..
A) vote on your good posts and reward others
B) vote on your good posts and earn Curation!


Hive isn't just a get rich quick scheme bullshit. I love this blockchain and how its setup and run. I mean shit, I have a Witness Node for it (working on fine tuning it still but it is up and running).

I am writing posts that try to educate people on tech things and blog about my passions (web3 and non web3)!

So I am here for the long haul and being a Minnow is just step 1. Step 2 is going to be a Dolphin!!!

By my rough calculation 620 HP = 1,000,000 VESTS = Minnow

So that must mean at today's rate 6,200 HP - 10,000,000 VESTS = Dolphin
(I actually have no idea how that works so.. yeah lol)


And so this is where I shoutout all your OG's. You G.O.A.T's. All of you who either helped me, pushed me, listen to me bitch, encouraged me, or just posted cool shit. I really hate tagging people unless I want to bother them. But this time I am tagging them because I wanted to say Thank You... so Thank You!

@cryptozeug - my OG WAX friend
@artofkylin - 2nd OG WAX friend
@nozem01 - my REALLY old Publish0x friend
@txracer - my new Hive Friend
@acidyo - Yeah we know you're the shit just accept it ;)
@captaindingus - Cause you call me out on my terrible Splinterlands LAND purchases
@flummi97 - You post good shit I enjoy reading here
@thebyron - You my boo and you know it!
@pvmihalache - You might be my longest web3 connection/friend we go back

and that is all I can think of off the top of my head. There are accounts that have helped me with my Node but I am drawing a blank 😔


Now to finish this random last minute article off. I wanted to say 3 things.

FIRST THING is:

Hey, so I run a Hive Witness Node. It is currently ranked #122 and I really really really want to get it into the top 100 which means I need about another 1.5 million HP of votes for my witness node. So if you think I am cute, funny, stupid, sexy, smart, witty, then please at least think about voting for me. You don't have to vote and I will never beg for votes. But I will beg for you to at least consider voting for me.

You can vote with this link: https://vote.hive.uno/@witness4all (ONLY IF YOU WANT TO)


SECOND THING is:

If you are bored and want real connections. Well then there are single women in your area looking to... oh wait no that's not the right one. Ummm oh yeah, I run a Discord Server where me and my web3 friends shoot the shit. We talk about Hive stuff, we talk about WAX stuff, we talk about life stuff, we talk about pretty much anything but Politics or Religion. So come hang out with us if you want to! If you don't want to...you will hurt my feelings but I will get over it eventually (when I become a Dolphin).

This is my server invite link: https://discord.gg/ujBXNA6S6Y


THIRD THING is:

My new 3D printer arrived today, so I am going to be setting that bad boy up this weekend and printing way too much random stupid shit. If you have any 3D files that are HIVE related let me know. Or really any web3 related type things. I won't ship the items to you because I am not THAT rich but I will print them and maybe make some SNAPs about it or full articles IDK honestly. (and I tried to write a sneaky coded tag into my articles tags but it kept telling me to F off, so instead I am putting it here at the end. If you are reading this and actually read the entire article then when you comment (if you want to comment) than somehow put in a color into your comment but don't make it obvious or you ruin it for everyone else, and I will give your comment a higher upvote so you get more reward percentage from comment rewarder. Remember it's a secret prize to those who are reading this. If you ruin it for everyone and make it obvious then you do NOT get any upvote!) I want to make sick figures that BraveTofu posted about the other day that were Splinterlands related cause I think those would be SICK.

Something this like!

Today is just a really freaking good day! And I hope you all have a really good day as well!

(and I didn't even proof read this cause now I gotta go Google 3D stl files to print this weekend PEACE OUT HOMIES!

Dang you are awesome dude. I am impressed by the cut of your jib.

You should check out thingverse, you could find a bee and paint it yellow, or a hexgon and paint it the same colour as the hive icon. And I bet you could find letters that you could pain white grey and red to make a 3d PeakD logo.

Thingverse, MakerWorld, Printables are sites I have already started to make collections/bookmarks in for the past few months because I knew this day would come! :)

My first big print I will do is a life size Charmander because it just has to be. But also a Master Chief helmet (life size) and then Deadpool helmet and a Green/White Power Ranger helmet because they would be so cool to have on display in my office.

But besides that I need to decorate my 3D workshop bench area and thought some cool Hive stuff would be neat because eventually I will run my Hive Witness Node (the mini NUC) over there as well so I thought it would be nice.

I only have white Filament to start so most items will be filled, sanded, painted

You could def make some fun hive themed stuff. Make a 3-d Hive logo and maybe a stand that looks like a bee hive?

My problem is.. I am not sure if I will be any good at 3D Modeling. I used Blender before and it was a steep learning curve but that was like 2 years ago.

So I gotta stick to already made 3D models to start and just slightly modify them

Congratulations mate!! And thanks for the mentioning, I really appreciate it. 😊

I just joined your Discord. I am not the active on Discord, but sometime I have time to read through the channels.

We both have a similar number of VESTS and I will be happy as soon as we have both reached Dolphin status. Especially because my favorite color is green, just like the Dolphin's background. Maybe together we can push each other to our limits. 😊

YAY, join the cool kids on discord. I saw you joined and no worries, no pressure to ever say anything. You can even just lurk and follow the crap we post about (we never ping @ all anyways so you won't get annoyed with pings haha) and pick and choose what works for you.

And you went up a tier because Green is my favorite color and always has been! It truly is the superior color which is why I am thinking of 3D printing a HBD logo instead of a hive logo 😁

We do try to post in the discord any ways we find to earn Hive (like the vote for dapps, free hive tokens, etc etc) So keep your eyes pealed! 😁

First of all: Congrats my friend! When I grow up, I want to be like you. 😏

artofkylin is right, thingiverse is a great starting point for .stl files. I found a Hive logo for you. The model shows in blue, but of course you can also print in red, if you have red filament.

lol thanks Cryptozeug that gave me a good chuckle 😁

And I know you know the 3D game so I will be bugging you through this adventure as well. Like I said in another comment, I am leaning towards a HBD logo (since its the same thing but green lol)

I have a very nice silk light green here. Only I'm too lazy to change the filament at the moment. Think I'm a total noob in 3D but will try my best.

I really really struggled with getting a AMS system 3D printer or not. And while yes being able to print in multicolor would be so awesome and save me so much time..

I didn't want that bulky of a system and for my 1st system (hopefully for a while). I wanted a enclosed system that I could get cheap(ish) and just print.

This is like my gateway drug. If I really really really like it and get really into it than I can see me getting a AMS system 3D printer to do all those types of prints on and then this one used to print the 1 color items or parts for the house, desk, workshop, etc etc

That's exactly what I'm doing here. Got my cheap printer third hand and try to get a feeling for the whole process. We can put more money into it when we know what we do.

Hahaha you are so damn funny😂😂

Can we be friends already? I love your realness and sense of humor, you don’t get to see this every day😂😂

Congratulations on being a minnow, keep up the good work and in no time you’ll become a Dolphin.

Anyone can be friends! ❤️ So maybe we are officially friends now already! 😁

But thank you. I try to be real and authentic and that is me being silly or just stupid sometimes! What is life without some fun though right?

Where do you see that blue minnow tag? I guess the only ones I have are the gold star stickers for spamming the chain with my bs. Is that tag part of HiveBuzz?

Cool man, you will be there in no time, make my bro' PVM your example and try to outpost him, haha!

I did vote on your node, hope it helps to bump you up a bit. Meet you at 550.000 Hive when you are a whale (by the way, a Hive whale can pay bills out of the automatic votes, just so you know)

Dude PVM is just in another league. He grinds like nobody I have ever seen before! When I grow up I want to be like him! :)

THANK YOU for the Node vote ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
(ironically I corrupted my Node last night when I shut the power off to my basement... so now it has to resync which will take like 3 days) :(
