Between Nov 11 and 17 I bought 329 HIVE for $108.72 and sent it to my account with the intent of trading between Hive and HBD and building up my HBD savings account. I also powered down a couple of weeks to add to the trades.
I was selling the Hive for fifty cents and buying it back at forty five cents and it worked really well for a few times and then I was never able to sell the Hive again. I just checked today and it is at half of what I will sell it for and doesn't seem to be going up soon so I am going to power it up because it isn't making anything sitting there liquid and I will lose too much selling it for HBD right now.
This way, at least it can benefit the people I like to read and watch here. I guess it will benefit me as well with curation rewards. Win/Win!
So I'm still not doing too bad. If my math is right, I have bought 772 HIVE for $349.12 and my wallet is worth a bit more than that, even though I paid a lot more per token than what they are worth right now.
So I have earned almost 200 Hive and $112 in HBD since joining from posting and a little bit of trading.
Not too bad!
Plus I have donated a little here and there so all in all I have to say that the crypto market that everyone is complaining about hasn't hurt me in the least. Sure I would love to be making 20% on the HBD but selling it for a 50% loss would take a long time to make back up.
The proof is in the pudding so I powered up 470 HIVE today. If things change I can always power down some and start trading again.
