I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
As most of y'all know, I've got a thing for income tokens. I'm picky, though, as a token is only as strong as its team. In my almost 3 years on the Blockchain, I've been exploring, acquiring, growing, and saving quite a good array of diverse income tokens. My experience over time with them has certainly given me a good perspective on what makes a solid income token, and this discernment has allowed me to focus my resources on the best of the best on the Blockchain. Some tokens have become my top favorites, due to their consistent dependability and excellent benefits provided, like BXT and DRIP, and also my largest layer-2 investments. These investments have been bearing excellent fruit, one of which is accelerating my growth on the Blockchain.
So far the income tokens in my holdings that provide notable and usually-reliable daily or weekly benefits in terms of HIVE or SWAP.HIVE are BBH, BRO, BXT, COM, DRIP, EDS, INCOME, and LGN. I do have some DBOND/DABS as well, but I don't have much to say about it yet, as I don't have a lot, and I've just kept staking, so I haven't seen any dividend payments up to this point. I'm always searching for new income tokens with good teams backing them, and I keep adding tokens to my list to explore, like ARMERO, ATX, DUO, and many more, and when resources permit, I begin making small investments, when the opportunity presents itself.
One of these income tokens, ATX, has been on my radar, and my wish-list, for a while now, both for the token itself, and to add to the ATX:SWAP.HIVE diesel/liquidity pool, which gives very good daily rewards, including more ATX. The other day, following a link on someone's post, I came upon an ATX contest post, which I ended up entering. Although I didn't win the contest, I was still sent 1 ATX token (I still don't know by whom), much to my surprise. After responding on another comment, welcoming me to the contest, I was asked if I wanted to provide liquidity to the ATX:SWAP.HIVE diesel/liquidity pool, to which I replied in the affirmative. Soon afterward, I was very kindly and unexpectedly sent 10 ATX to add to the pool, which brought me to 11 ATX. I added a small bit to the pool last night, with the SWAP.HIVE that I had available. Even with the tiny bit that I added, the rewards were quite good, so this morning I removed assets from the lower-performing SWAP.HIVE:NEOXAG pool, and I used the SWAP.HIVE to add to the ATX:SWAP.HIVE pool, which provides far greater benefits. Given how much ATX that I'll receive daily in rewards, I should be able to grow my ATX holding, and my position in the diesel/liquidity pool, quite substantially over time.
So two things that I had been wanting to do, get ahold of some ATX, and get assets in the ATX:SWAP.HIVE pool, we're basically handed to me. Amazingballs to the max! I intend to compensate/repay the kind individual who sent me the 10 ATX, since he did me great service, even though he said that there's no need. So now I'll get to see how ATX performs as an income token, as well as creating another source for useful assets via the diesel/liquidity pool. Brilliant!
Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House, after wrapping up my Hive tasks, just a little after 1PM, heading to the Tutu's first to make some food for Iolanthe. I ended up hanging out with her for a while, then I finally headed to the Landing to strain and blend kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao). With kefir done, I spent some time taking more photos for these posts, and some for my entry in the Reflection Hunters Contest, while the sun and weather cooperated. I didn't get as many photos as I had hoped, or any for my entry in the Shadow Hunters Contest, as the weather was not ideal later in the day. After photography, I returned to the Landing to make and enjoy one of my glorious cheeseburgers, which very much hit the spot! I made another attempt, only partially successful, of getting a few more photos, before I finally just surrendered to the conditions, collected my leftover jar of superfood fire coffee from the Landing fridge, and heading back to the Flow House, to get into my evening round of Hive tasks, and catching up on my notifications. There were a lot last night, and even after multiple hours of focused work, I was still 2 hours behind when I had to make myself go to bed around 12:30AM. I woke up just a little after 7:30AM, still feeling that I needed more sleep, doing a round of token management, starting on this post, then getting out of bed around 8:30AM, to go make my superfood fire coffee.
It's now just after 12:15PM, so a great time to end this post, so that I can get to a few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first strain and blend kefir, take more photos for these posts as well as for my entry in the Shadow Hunters Contest, and then land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's incarnation of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
