I include a link to the initial goal-setting post for 2023, for reference, if needed.
Leofinance continues to drive attention on Hive these days at multiple levels, from the competition it holds with big prizes, to increased activity and changes to LEO tokenomics and the way they will curate going forward.
If that's not enough, and with the challenges put together by Eric for the Zealy campaign, today is also LEO Power Up Day.
There is a special limited edition NFT to be earned by those who power up at least 8k LEO today, as mentioned in their post.
Well, I'm not as fortunate to be in the position to power up as much LEO today, but I did power up some.
This is only one of my LEO power-ups from today (I did it in multiple transactions to complete some of the Zealy campaign quests):
I even bought a few LEO at these short-term pumped-up prices to reach my Lion status:
This week was also well-suited for buying more HIVE for my goal.
Let's see what changed since last week regarding my Hive goals.
HIVE Power (HP) + HBD in Savings Main Goal
My staked HP is almost constant at 30,004, my HIVE being kept liquid in expectation of HPUD and some speculative opportunities. I withdraw significant amounts of HBD from savings to buy HIVE this week and only have 500 HBD in savings now. I will buy back when I think it's appropriate.
The goal's progress (regress!) update for this week reflects both the drop in the price of HIVE and the withdrawals from savings. It never shows what is being held liquid, either as HIVE or as HBD.
Here's what the evolution of the HP+HBD goal looks like:
I'll need to have one of the targets (HBD or HIVE) reached to consider this goal completed.
If a target becomes too easy, I may increase the target, but not forever. Just like the market can play against your targets, they can play in their favor too.
LEO Staked Main Goal
I staked 421 LEO since last week, reaching the Lion status (15k LEO staked), as I mentioned in the introduction. With LEO pumping, we can start dreaming about LEO at $1 again. :) We can't say LEO isn't backed by development...
Another half a month for another 500 LEO. It won't be easy at all, especially since the higher price of LEO means less LEO received from the delegation.
Splinterlands Land Expansion Main Focus
Land expansion's main focus extends throughout 2023. Unless I change the strategy, it will be the only main focus / main goal for Splinterlands in 2023. But there will be several 1-3 months goals.
First Land-Related Goal: DEC/DEC-B Saved - Completed
This goal is COMPLETED.
Deadline (passed): When DEC-B offer runs out, either because all were sold out or because the time limit was reached (April 9th).
Target to consider the goal completed: 1.5 mil. DEC-B saved. Done!
DEC Saved 2 Goal
Deadline stage 1: June (but sooner if possible).
Deadline stage 2: ?
Deadline stage 3: End of 2023?
Target to consider the goal completed:
- stage 1: 1.2m DEC
- stage 2 (will become DEC Saved 3 Goal): 2.2 DEC (1m additional DEC)
- stage 3 (will become DEC Saved 4 Goal): 5 DEC (2.8m additional DEC)
Current situation: 253k x 2 DEC (in SWAP.HIVE/DEC) = 506k DEC (+22k).
Note: Well, I couldn't resist a whole lot with DEC liquid. I moved it to SWAP.HIVE/DEC diesel pool, expecting HIVE to go back above 40 cents until the deadline of this goal is reached. That would help me with my goal unless DEC goes up even more. Anyway, this goal seems very difficult to achieve without selling something. I'll have to look into that in the following weeks. It will be a very tough goal to complete nonetheless.
New Land-Related Goal: Maxed Cards for Staking on Land
Unless very cheap cards are on the market, this goal is on hold until I reach DEC Saved 2 Goal (stage 1).
The purpose of this goal is to build the amount of maxed-level cards I need for staking on my tract.
We will need to fill 5 slots per plot with staked cards, without requiring summoners (that doesn't mean they can't be used as regular cards).
So, what are the details of this goal?
Deadline:
- stage 1: June 2023
- stage 2: End of 2023 (this will be a new goal)
The total number of maxed-level* cards needed for staking on land: 500 (5 x 100).
- stage 1: need 220 cards for land by the deadline
- stretch goal: have optimized cards for 24 plots
- stage 2: have 500 cards for land
- stretch goal: have optimized cards for 44 plots
(*) any card with at least 1000 PP suitable for the terrain types I own will do (better for better plots); doesn't have to be maxed
Current situation total: 117 / 500 (23.4%)
Current situation stage 1: 115 / 220
Time remaining until Stage 1 deadline: ~4 weeks
Note: Currently no progress here. My focus is on DEC. Without DEC, I can have as many cards as I want, they are useless for land.
I could probably add some more cards from my deck if I'll need to (some are probably underutilized in my playing deck). New soulbound reward cards are options too.
Comments Made
Original goal: 18k, REDUCED to 17k, by the end of 2023.
I started this week with a total of 13654 comments made.
Ended the week with 13723 comments made, which brings the number of my comments this week to 69, which is quite low. Probably because I was sick because it's a big drop compared to my usual average.
I now need an average of 100 to reach the goal of 17k.
Weekly Buy - CTPSB
I purchased a little CTPSB this week while waiting for some limit orders I have set up to execute at some point for different tokens.
