We’re now on Day 6 of my 💰 Hive Blockchain Investment Experiment, comparing two paths:
🐝 Savings Strategy – Building Hive Power and HBD savings for consistent, passive returns.
⚡ Trading Strategy – Actively buying and selling Hive and HBD to capture short-term gains.
📈 Today’s Market Prices 🐝 HIVE: $0.2185
💵 HBD: $0.998 (slightly under peg)
💼 Portfolio Snapshot 📌 Type 📊 Amount 💲 USD Value 🐝 Hive Power 581.846 $127.06 💰 HBD Savings 128.608 $128.35 📈 Hive (Trading) 705.358 $154.07 💹 HBD (Trading) 105.104 $104.89
Totals:
💵 Savings Total: $255.41
⚡ Trading Total: $258.96
🏆 Lead: Trading ahead by +$3.55
🔍 Analysis & Observations 📊 Trading widens its lead slightly compared to yesterday.
📉 Drop in Hive price reduced the USD value of Hive Power, impacting the savings side.
⚡ Trading benefited from larger Hive holdings, offsetting the price drop more effectively.
💵 HBD under peg slightly reduced the USD value of HBD holdings for both strategies.
⚖️ Risk vs Reward 🐝 Savings Strategy
✅ Steady, predictable growth
💤 Low maintenance and stress
⚡ Trading Strategy
🚀 Can adapt quickly to market changes
⚠️ Higher exposure to volatility
📅 What’s Next Watch Hive’s price closely — extended downward moves could hurt both strategies.
Monitor for HBD peg recovery opportunities.
Keep tracking the daily compounding effect on trading gains.
🏁 Final Thoughts Day 6 keeps the trading side in the lead, but the margin is still small. This experiment continues to show how small market changes can shift the balance between active and passive approaches.
