The Last Dump... And The Last Pump... .:. WorkerBee PH-Pool Week 259
I remember well that early October 2025... Expectations of seeing BTC going higher than 125K, just once more, waiting for the "last pump"... Something similar happened last year in January, but for altcoins... HIVE almost hit $0.70, we were waiting for that small gap to be filled, to see that $1 HIVE, the last pump... It didn't come... On the other side, I have a feeling that I'm doing the same, but in the opposite direction, especially regarding HIVE... But this time, I'm waiting for the last dump!

Yes, I know... Being in the crypto world for almost a decade, I should know better... The universal truth regarding hitting the top, or finding the bottom, is... It's impossible to predict something like that, but despite all that, we want to be closer... The closest to those peaks, and dips... If not, there is another mountain behind the peak, and another dip after "our dip"...

Sometimes it's greed, other time is FOMO or FUD, but the result is the same... Regret of not selling, or not buying when "we knew" that it's too close... Of course, that "knew" is an absolute lie, as we didn't know in THAT MOMENT, but after it, we know everything much better... 😂 We have so many "generals after the battle" around on Twitter and YouTube, and they KNOW everything... I'm just wondering, why only a few were talking about GOLD or SILVER a year or two ago? Because it was hard to go there in those moments, hard to "see" what's coming...
So, what are you waiting to see? The last pump, or the last dump? 😃 I know at least one friend of mine who had a very nice chance to sell one crypto for a nice profit just recently... He was in the same situation as I was a year ago... Waiting for the last pump to sell... Waiting for that nice, "round number" to sell... Not financial advice, but don't wait for rounded numbers ever... Smart people buy or sell CLOSE to them, not at those prices... Because of the rest who like ROUND numbers (me included 😀)...

Let's see the WorkerBee Pool numbers for this week...
This week, we have mined 92 BEE tokens in total, 14 tokens fewer than the week before!
This week, we didn't get new delegators! But we got some new delegations from old members, as usual! Thanks, guys! Appreciate your support!
This pool doesn't charge fees, and you can earn up to 20% more by delegating to it!



What about the bonus tokens?
Let's do this part on a positive note... Today's bonus token is the STARBITS token, which has been doing fairly well recently! For the last month or so, it has been slowly grinding up, at least in HIVE value... After such a long time going down, it's refreshing to see it going in the opposite direction... To my surprise, the second token from the Rising Star game, the STARPRO, is also doing well... I mean, it was going up constantly, but I assumed it was retracing when I saw STARBITS doing well, but it's not! All in all, a bit of positive news for all those stubborn Rising Star players who were doing missions day by day! Let's see how high we can go... Hopefully, this isn't the "last pump" that I just described in the first part of this post... 😃
There will be distributed 3.2 million STARBITS tokens to the delegators of the pool as a bonus reward today!

3.2 million STARBITS tokens will be distributed as a bonus... The APR (without the bonus) was 11.323%, and when we added the bonus, it went up to 13.614%!
I have calculated the ROI approximately with medium prices for all tokens when creating this post... So, those numbers are valid if you bought WB and sold BEE tokens at the middle HiveEngine price...

The cryptocurrency market can be unpredictable, and at times, it iss smarter to take strategic actions instead of just waiting for the ideal moment.
It's nearly impossible to find the "ideal" entrance or exit... Those who get near those spots are winners, those who chase are usually losers...
if it was so easy to predict, everyone would be rich!
i'll keep saying, up or downs are too tied to geopolitics this last year, so it's up to everyone do its own mind... what would happen if the US attack Iran to crypto?
Last year, before Trump, Jerome Paul was the guy who was moving the markets with his financial moves from the Fed... Unfortunately, Trump took over with his unpredictable moves all over the place... Nobody can predict what he will have on his mind tomorrow, which brings so much uncertainty in the markets and the world in general...

Thank you for the STARBITS!
You are welcome! Cheers! 🍻
How many times have I been "general after the battle" 🤣
It seems to me that I love my coins a lot and I can't part with them when I need to, and I often accumulate them before I need to.
As in dominoes, "Double Naked" 😂
Hehehehe... I have different coins in my bags, waiting for some to be sold, others to HODL forever... But, for HIVE, for example... I have no plans at all... I stopped looking at it as tokens, but rather see it as a way to support others with my stake...
But, who knows... Maybe I will change my view and sell some... 😃
I have some amount of Hive on the exchanges (nothing much) from where I deposit for HivePUD.
And placed a sell order, if it unexpectedly goes up, so it is sold at x3 the price at which I bought it.
If that happens i will make 20$ (a fortune 😅) but i will be able to say i sold Hive😀
As for HP, I have no plans to reduce it in the coming years, as you say, we are here to help others (and to play).
Thanks for the update, and don't panic! 😂

Hehehehe... Gotta push the adrenaline up in some way... 😂
I have stopped playing Rising Stars but I think Jux is really doing amazing work in keeping the gamme up and running.
Not sure if they added one more token (I guess it named nolimit) asscoiated to the game.
!PIZAA !LOL
That token is from another game with which they collaborate... And regarding Jux, he is a very stubborn and persistent guy! He had a vision for a game from the very beginning and stuck to it through the shitty times too...
It looks like that was the crucial thing! 💪
Things are really going very well for Rising Stars. Judging by the situation inside the game, the demand for both tokens is huge. On top of that, there are plenty of bonuses for spending them.
About 3–4 years ago, I had a feeling that the STARPRO tokenomics could gradually pull the entire game forward. But over this time, Jux seems to have done even more… I’m betting on further growth of both tokens.
!ALIVE
I remember talking with Jux at HiveFest in Amsterdam, in 2022... Even back then, he had a vision of things, how to develop, which direction, and he was preparing for bear markets, even then... There were some "unpopular" changes in the game in the last year or two, but they brought more stability and results in the long run... 😉
I haven't been playing Rising Star as much lately. I am just running the millionaire mission at night, and I just tend to save up those starbits until a seasonal card is out to buy packs. I think STARPRO has always had more use cases compared to STARBITs though.
Thanks for running the pool and for the BEE/STARBITs.
Yeah, the game had more than one use case for their tokens, and recently, more collaborations have made... All that helps out with the token(s) price and stability!
That's so true. Human nature or most of the crowd tend to be FOMO. Over the past weeks, there are long queues of people outside the gold and silver shops buying and selling their physical bars and jewelry. Interesting to see when this rally will end, and at which level.
Thanks for the update and tokens!
I saw people searching for the (silver) coins from the past for cheap (pennies or such), in the hope of selling them as raw silver... That's even bigger FOMO than standing in the lines at pawn shops... 😃
😂😂😂
It is impossible to identify if this is the last pump, or the last dump, not for BTC and for sure not for Alts.
It could very well be the last dump for BTC, BTC never will see much lower lows, perhaps 70-ish, 74-ish as the bottom before it will go up gradually again, over time, gradually I mean. How many BTC holders still around to sell? How much money influx from the institutionals, who essentially just started their entrance? Who knows. And what about Alts, like HIVE? Who knows.
As I'm expecting the "last dump", and the market usually does the opposite of my expectations, I would say that we are very close to the bottom... 😃 The second boring thing is going sideways, which could happen for the next few months, easily...
Regarding alts or HIVE, I tend to ignore and not think about... lol... 😃
This is something that I was questioning a long time ago... I think that we will come to the moment when some people will try to "count" the balances of all these "buyers", and the count will be over 21M 😃
My podcast peeps told some weeks ago that something like half of the floating BTCs were traded last year.
Sometimes we wish we had one of those crystal balls to predict the future—short, medium, and long term—of cryptocurrencies.
During the Great Depression, Commodore Vanderbilt, far from having a crystal ball but with a nose for opportunity sharper than a state-of-the-art GPS, bought stacks of shares in failing industries at rock bottom, locked them in his safe, and forgot about it.
When the economy stabilized, it was the appreciation of those shares that led him to amass one of the world's greatest fortunes. And he became a billionaire.
Or to have a time-travelling machine... 😃
Oh, there are a lot of similar stories, like the one you shared... I suppose we can "train" to sharpen our noses for recognizing opportunities... It's all about the experience... 😉
The waiting game for the top/bottom can be a never ending one lol. I personally miss it most of the time, but it's a good learning experience to understand cycles better through retrospection. At this point in time, I'm waiting for the last dump before the pump :)
hahahahaha... That's why I created this post... I was waiting for the last pump a few months ago, and it didn't come... Now, I'm waiting for the last dump, but secretly hoping that it will not come either... 😃
Lol, the probability seems to be around the 50/50 mark. A good dump will give us the chance to climb higher :)
I have the same feeling that maybe the last dip will never come after all. But I'd rather wait and see.
I have some ammo to buy the last dump, but hopefully, I will not use it... 😃
This time, I would be happy if it doesn't happen... 😃
