Hello all! Another week and it's time again to do another #myhivegoals post, a series idea started by started by Hive account@jongolson. I'm going to look at the progress I've made on my Hive goals, as well as give a few tokens I'm looking at right now. If you are here for the comment SBI giveaway, well, we'll get to that too.

HIVE continued to go strong last week. Not quite bull run strong, but at least it didn't fall back to .3 as it usually does after a pump. Going strong! Although on one hand I'm disappointed I can no longer buy HIVE for quite as cheap as before, I'm also excited to see it going up. Back to $3!

Anyway, let's dive into my goals.

~ Hive & HBD ~

My current goal is 25k Hive.

This past week I made 286.29, bringing me to 19873.29 total Hive Power. That's 79.5% of my goal!

Math time. 25k - 19873.29 gives us 5126.71. Divided out by the days till the first of next year, we get 91.5 Hive needed per day to reach 25k by that point.

Yeah... there's no way I can make 25k by the first of next year without a fairly large outside investment, not unless I start getting much higher level upvotes here. If any of you have any strings you can pull for me, well... 🙏

On the bright side, I'll probably go past 20k next week, which is not a bad place to be at all.

Let's see, 5000 Hive would run $1770 at today's prices, or ¥264,319. Yeah.... I don't think my wife would be too happy with that transfer from our bank account. I'll just hope for the increase in upvotes!

As for HBD, I have decided to start stacking it a little. See yesterday's post for my thoughts on that. Only 5 per week, so my main focus is definitely still on HIVE.

~ BRO & LGN & PIMP ~

I went up a small amount in these but nothing worth mentioning. In PIMP, however, I made a little from posts and drips. I made 351.9232 PIMP last week, putting me at 59592.26 — 59.6% of my goal.

~ Silver Stacking ~

As for silver, I picked up a Peace dollar last week.

I already wrote a post about that, which you can see here if you missed it.

Those cool silver stacking cats at #silvergoldstackers have been a bad influence. Just from the past few months of stacking a few coins at a time and my small box is already nearly full and I need to move on to a bigger one.

^{Make fun all you want, these AirPods boxes are thick and sturdy, making it a great place to stick stuff. Although, come to think of it, putting silver in a box for something that people want to steal probably isn't the best move. Good thing burglary isn't very high in Japan (yet!).}

Anyway, I know I said last week that I was going to move away from buying junk silver and more towards buying rounds, but it's not often I see US coins at the coin ship here, so I just had to get that peace dollar. We'll see if I pick up anything else this week.

That stuff out of the way, let's do our SBI drawing! If you are new here, I give away 5 shares of SBI every week to commenters on this post. If I get under five commenters, I try to divide it up as best as possible, and if I get over five, I do a random drawing.

So how about this week? Let's see... last post we had comments from Hive account@dkid14 Hive account@daddydog Hive account@dewabrata Hive account@mypathtofire Hive account@kerrislravenhill Hive account@mdasein Hive account@thebighigg Hive account@bozz Hive account@melbourneswest Hive account@cmplxty Hive account@rzc24-nftbbg Hive account@bitcoinman Hive account@jfang003 Hive account@oasiskp2 Hive account@moisesjohan Hive account@silverd510 Hive account@stekene Hive account@littlebee4

And the winners are...

Hive account@moisesjohan Hive account@oasiskp2 Hive account@daddydog Hive account@mypathtofire Hive account@kerrislravenhill!

Congratulations, everyone!

And forward we go! It was a strong week. Let's see how this coming one goes!
