I started off the journey from the 1st June 2020 and my full goal is to own 1 Bitcoin and 50K Hive.

This is actually my favorite post to do every month as it is a sign of the progress that can be made through daily activity and building a following on hive. I started doing these three years ago when I tried to build my first 100SP and took about three months to get there.

When I started this latest challenge on the 1st of June it was sitting on 20,000SP which is by no means a small amount but through sales of other investments and some handy gains from selling STEEM and BLURT I managed to make some big jumps up to 36,500SP in just three months. Not a bad result at all and it will keep going long after I have sold my other tokens as my curation rewards increase over time from staking.

I am committed to powering up everything that i can earn to fulfill this mission and grow my account, including hive bought after other online activities.

I am a couple of days earlier than usual for this post but got a bit excited after breaking the 40k mark and also needed a reason to post since i broke my streak and find it very hard to get going again.


Account Growth

I actually managed to power up 3,400 HP this month which seems strange. I had a great start to the month but haven't done much in the past two weeks as life got in the way. It's been a crazy time at work and home which has gotten in the way of being active.

What i did do at the very start of the month was bought a lot of $LEO about 20 mins after they announced the launch of wrapped LEO. At that time liquidity on the market was so small that myself and one other person bumped the price almost 100% in a few minutes and it kept going from there. I managed to double my investment over two days while still holding some of the LEO for myself. Not a bad start and the reason that I had such a good month. That and the fact that I sold a good bit of DEC that was sitting in my account bumped up the numbers nicely.

I am fully out of STEEM by now and just have a small bit of BLURT left to sell but that has netted me a nice 50 HIVE every week since i started powering down.

I'm really disappointed in my earnings from posting this month as I totally fell away from writing this month after having a few great months. Life was just very busy but when i broke my concentration it has been very hard to get it back. I did have one big post at the start of the month but for me its far more important to be doing it consistently and be active on the chain.

Most of those days are from @actifit but I want to do a lot more and cut out the excuses. From writing every day it has been a week since my last post.This is where i have really fell down and will do a lot better for October.

Targets.

Hive Power.


Bitcoin.


I have made one slight adjustment to my plan for attaining Orca and Bitcoin status which is a deviation away from not buying anything with fiat.

While I will still be aiming to earn all of my hive from writing or from selling other crypto. With Bitcoin I have set up a recurring buy of $50 a week on my crypto.com account. I just feel that it will be a good investment over the next couple of years and want to dollar cost into it and get there faster. With the way things are going it could shoot up at any time and if i waited to hit Orca first and then started buying I might lose out at these prices. Even if it drops from here I will keep the buy going and hold for the future so I see it as a win win.

At this rate I should hit the 50K by xmas which will give me a good chance to start pushing towards one bitcoin. Hopefully the price of HIVE will increase by then and it will make things a lot easier.

I might have to add a $LEO section to this post next and try to get dolphin status on the list. At the rate they are building it wouldn't be a bad move.
