Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Today turned out to be, much to my surprise in realizing it last night, a day when the publishing schedules for three different posts coincided at the same time. I had my weekly-goals-and-progress update, my BPUD post, because yeah, it's BPUD today, and finally this post. Given that two of those posts are time-limited/sensitive, I focused on writing and publishing my BPUD post first, after powering up, forgoing my goals-and-progress update until later, and then focusing on writing this post. Hopefully I'll be able to get my goals-and-progress update written and published by tonight, or more likely tomorrow morning or evening.
Something significant that I forgot to mention in my last post is that I smashed 18,000 Hive Power the day before yesterday, so I'll easily surpass 18,100 HP before the end of this new week, and with my sizeable chunk of HIVE to power up on the May HPUD, it will bring me quite close to 20,000 Hive Power. My 2026 year-end goal of 25,000 Hive Power is looking very doable indeed!
Between keeping up on all my daily and weekly Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, on those in this jungle community, and now my increasingly-deep dives down technological rabbit holes, I'm finding balancing my time in relation to it all quite challenging. This has had the effect of me going to bed multiple times this week past 1-1:30AM, which I've very much been feeling. I need sleep, but I also have lots of things to do and to learn!
On the hive-investment front, things just seem to keep getting more and more challenging, with ever more income streams drying up. I mentioned the loss of the daily SWAP.HIVE from my liquidity in the SWAP.HIVE:PWR pool hit me quite hard, because it was my, and the We Are Alive Tribe's, primary source of income, and now it's gone, just like BeeSwap, another essential Hive component disappearing into the void. I ran some numbers today, and after the loss of the SWAP.HIVE:PWR pool, it would now take me delegations totaling around 10,000 HP to @centtoken to return to my previous daily SWAP.HIVE income. All I've got to say is ouch!
HP leases sadly aren't even an option for the We Are Alive Tribe, since all the HP is needed for curation. I still don't know exactly what I'm going to do about that. At least the refund for the We Are Alive Tribe's stake of PWR in the pool gave us an extra 250 HIVE, which has regenerated a few more months of daily ALIVE payouts, so very helpful. I would have preferred that the PWR refund were sent as SWAP.HIVE, however, rather than as HIVE, because that was a big chunk of our layer-2 investment liquidity which is now in layer 1, and I'm not into losing some in the conversion process to get it back on layer 2. And, because it's so useful in giving our daily ALIVE dividends a bit of a buffer boost, so that they can continue for longer, part of our community investment liquidity that Ben and I have contributed/donated is now allocated to daily ALIVE-dividend payouts. Now to rebuild our daily and weekly SWAP.HIVE income, somehow.
Yesterday, Sunday, I left the Flow House, after finishing my numerous Sunday Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by around 3:30PM, giving my attention first to a few small jungle-community tasks, and then to some photography for my posts. After turning on the generator, and going to make myself some food in Wabisabi, I returned to the Flow House, to do a little more techie research, then to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got everything done quite late, by a little after 10:30PM, and after some asset management for myself and the We Are Alive Tribe, I went to bed, way too late again, by just after 1AM. I woke up a bit after 7AM, still feeling that I needed more sleep, going to prepare my superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, then returning to the Flow House to prepare my three posts to write (and collecting token data for my goals-and-progress update), powering up my BBHO, writing and publishing a post about it, and finally beginning on this post. It's now just after 1:45PM, so it's a marvelous time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my few other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on some photography for my posts, and then on some jungle-community/land work and tasks. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's incarnation of these posts! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2026 Life Goals
1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.
2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.
4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.
All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.
Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Good day, glad to see you are still picking away at all the things you do. I do have a suggestion if your interested to maybe feeing some time and still grow some digital wealth.
I continue to learn how to work smarter and not harder. I think with more collaboration we can help each other and our communities grow on Hive.
For example, looking at Liquidity pools. I see a very long list of LPs where you provide some liquidity. I suggest reducing the list, do some liquidating and change focus to managing fewer pools. For example, the resources you free up can be directed to PEPT problem solving LP and PEPT Qualitative Investment Strategy LP.
In TOOFUCKEH / SWAP.HIVE you have 0.50% of the shares.
In PEPENTROPY / SWAP.HIVE you have 0.72% of the shares.
Looking at the problem solving pool,
it is currently paying out some crazy returns. The most coming from pepEntropy QIS token. Take the opportunity to sell some pepEntropy for some SWAP.HIVE and to increase your share in the pepEntropy pool.
As the pepEntropy pool
grows you will start to get more daily SWAP.HIVE
I am a very good babysitter and these two pools are my babies. !LOLZ
My suggestion is not to criticize nor to beg for business. My purpose is to help people work smarter and not just harder. I just know that with collaboration and leveraging of resources digital wealth creation is accelerated and thus more rewarding for a Hiver community as a whole.
Something to think about.
I like to convert stranded assets, ie mostly dead tokens; into usable resources.
Wishing you all the best along your journey.

Hello again, my friend, and indeed, always, I'm relentless. Certainly, I'm always open to perspectives, suggestions, advice, and ideas. I agree with that, and on both counts, and I do the same, I'm always tweaking and refining how I do things over time. I'm also always open to further collaborations.
Yep, indeedly, I'm in a whole bunch of pools, though I focus on those that are most useful. Yes, I agree that trimming down my number of pools would be a good idea, and I've been meaning to remove liquidity from some basically dead pools. I appreciate your suggestion, and I'm working to grow my liquidity in your two pools as quickly as it's been feasible.
Yes, the pool rewards for those pools has been moving in very nice directions, and I appreciate the care that you give to your tokens and pools.
Thank you again for sharing your perspective and suggestion, brother, I really do appreciate it, and I'll keep it in mind as I move forward. I'm all about efficiently and effectively leveraging assets.
Ditto that, right back at ya. Have a beautiful Wednesday. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

If you want to accelerate that process I can spot you some tokens to leverage your current earning objectives. All part of building a trusting relationship. Keep in mind that it is best to get effective before getting efficient.
Your success is my success. !LOLZ

That's very kind, and I really appreciate it. My main constraint currently is my notably decreased SWAP.HIVE income, which is going to take my time to rebuild to its former level. I'm certainly open to the idea, and I thank you. How would you like to be compensated for that, and in what time frame? That idea, that our individual success is linked to the success of others on the blockchain, is something that I've been doing my best to explain to people for years now. Trust is essential, and I do my best to foster it.
Many thanks again, my friend, and may yours be equally excellent. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

04/23/2026, 7:41 AM Tokens Transfer fjworld tydynrain 500 TOOFUCKEH
04/23/2026, 7:41 AM Tokens Transfer fjworld tydynrain 500 PEPENTROPY
I transferred some TooFuckeh and pepEntropy tokens to @tydynrain currently valued just above 50 Swap.Hive
Its a small amount, interest free and for a 10 week period. Depending on how things unfold I am open to do another arrangement. And if you are able to manage a larger amount I am open to a discussion.
You can sell some tokens to get swap.hive and use the swap.hive to pair with pepEntyropy token to earn daily swap.hive from PEPENTROPY:SWAP.HIVE liquidity pool.
This will address....
Again, depending on how things workout we can adjust the amount for a future arrangement with the goal of increasing your daily swap.hive earning potential. I am more interested about building an effective earning process first then concerned about the actual amount of Hive involved.

Thank you for that, it's greatly appreciated. So of 500/500 TOOFUCKEH/PEPENTROPY, you'd like 50/50 back over a 10-week period, is that correct? I just have to add it to my weekly workflow to remember it reliably. When should I begin the paybacks?
I do really appreciate your assistance, and if I'm able to get back to my previous SWAP.HIVE income, that would be excellent indeed. I'll get them in their pools ASAP. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Sort of. I expect swap.hive or Hive in kind.
The calculated value of the tokens transferred is 53.05 Hive, or Swap.Hive
My expectation is you return 50 Hive or swap.hive
I expect it to be returned within a 10 week period.
I expect it to be 5 Hive or swap.hive per week.
7 days after receiving is the first 5 hive or swap.hive payment.
The plan would be that you sell some tokens and use the swap.hive to pair with some pepEntropy tokens so you add liquidity to the pepEnttropy:Swap.Hive Liquidity pool so you collect daily swap.hive from the pool.
This process will help you with your plan to increase your daily earned swap.hive
The loan amount is not high, it is interest free and should be manageable. We are defining a process that can be used again depending how things unfold.
I can make more funding available but at this time, defining and using the process is more important.
The PEPT Game approach is not about "and if" or some absolute target. It's about executing well defined processes along a journey beyond any specific target. The process is more valuable than the destination. I am process centric so this line of thinking and doing is different for someone that is result oriented. Both approach are good and when balanced drive higher than expected returns.
My wife is result oriented so we often spend much time in the analysis phase of anything we do.
Over the years I adopted the Deming's Wheel or Shewhart Cycle, ie Plan, Do, Check and Act. This PDCA methodology is foundational to The PEPT Game personal development and community ethos.
Each time we complete a PDCA cycle we eliminate waste and find more effective ways of doing things and position ourselves for higher rewarding innovations.

Ah, OK, I see. That would be somewhere around July 3rd, so the first payment needs to be sent by the 30th, right before HPUD. It wouldn't be feasible at all repaying in SWAP.HIVE, since I never have enough of that for my own purposes, especially now, so it would have to be HIVE, as that accumulates much faster for me. I just need to know consistent times/dates when I need to send funds back, because I juggle a lot, so it has to be put into my weekly scheduled tasks to actually get done consistently on time. I do wish that you had told me that you wanted HIVE/SWAP.HIVE initially, because generally both of those assets are already allocated, so now HIVE has to come out of my powerups.
I do appreciate your intention to assist, and your kind gesture, I just have to figure out how to make it work with how I'm doing things. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
!ALIVE
!PIZZA
!SLOTH
This process/idea is not to add more work or be a burden for you. The payment cycle start can be delayed and if you need more than 10 weeks that is ok as well. It doesn't have to be returned as weekly payments. And I am open to a token payment of your choice if Swap.Hive or Hive is not a good choice for you.
Propose what is easier for you. I have a lot of flexibility if need be. !LOLZ
Thank you, my friend, and I do very much appreciate that. I apologize if I came across as ungrateful, which I'm certainly not. I appreciate your flexibility. I'm still considering the the best way to do it, but I should be able to make it work. Just to fit it in with my weekly asset management on my account, and on the 'We Are Alive Tribe' accounts, would it work if I waited until the 3rd, so that I can do it with my other bunch of asset-management tasks on Sundays? I may be able to make SWAP.HIVE work. Either way, I'll make sure to send you a message via Discord to let you know that I sent a payment. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
