30,000 Hive Posts. The Aftermath...

As predicted in this thread, the crypto market seems to have nuked, and although BTC hasn't yet approached $24k, my gut feeling suggests that we'll witness it in the following weeks. Perhaps, we need a final flushout before that pre-halving rally.

While I'm uncertain if such an area will be revisited, if it happens, you can sell your kidneys, your kids' "unnecessary clothing," and your brand new car to buy Bitcoin because from that level, nothing can stop it from reaching $50k this year.

I must admit that you shouldn't take financial advice from me. However, according to hive.blog stats, I've just passed 30,000 posts on Hive. I'm not sure if the interface counts my posts from the Steemit era or only shows what I've done since the fork, but 30,000 posts are impressive. They're a combination of blogging articles and comments/replies. I estimate that I've written over 4,000 blog articles in five years of Hive.

It feels like it was just yesterday when I first started on Hive. I was new to crypto, had no prior experience with blogging, and didn't even know what my blog would be about. However, I knew for sure that I wanted to make it a full-time job. For a while, I did manage to do that, but blogging on Hive can't be viewed from a regular job perspective.

I still remember my early days on Hive. One of the first people I followed after I joined the Hive train was Hive account@dragosroua, who had a reputation score of 70 at the time. I was still a noob and wondered how he even got to such a score. Back then, it was much harder to make yourself known and earn upvotes from the community since most large whales throwing huge upvotes left and right were paid bots.

I've been through a lot with Hive. I brought it with me every day, no matter what I was doing. If I had a short trip, I didn't leave Hive at home. If I had a hard day, I didn't let it pass without dedicating some time to creating content and engaging with the community.

Reaching 30,000 posts on Hive is a noteworthy milestone for me, proof of my consistency and a push for going further. A couple of days ago, I asked the Hive account@leofinance community on #threads which case would make them completely move away from Hive, and as predicted, none would leave for any particular reason. We have our fair share of seasonal hivers, but nothing spectacular. You don't get to 30,000 posts in five years by being seasonal.

Now, it's time to end my silly bragging post, but before that, I want to ask whoever is reading this post: how many posts have you written since you joined Hive, and how long have you been active on Hive?

Thanks for your attention,
Adrian
