Day of 2026-01-08: Yield Categorization and the Reality of Illiquid Returns

A disciplined approach requires more than just holding assets; it demands a constant evaluation of how those assets work in relation to the base layer.

The weekly balance check remains the primary tool for maintaining situational awareness. By tracking the $HIVE-denominated value.

Yield-per-HIVE Tierlist

During a period of operational downtime, I have begun gathering data to rank our holdings based on their yield performance relative to $HIVE. This unfinished tierlist is a critical step in optimizing the portfolio's cash flow. By ranking these tokens, we can identify which "employees" (tokens) are working the hardest for the capital deployed.

Current Working Hierarchy:

  1. BBH

  2. BBHO

  3. SURGE

  4. CENT

  5. TGLD

  6. TTSLA

  7. TNVDA

  8. HIVE-LEO

  9. HIVE-HIVE

  10. ALIVE

This list allows for a more clinical allocation of future liquidity. While the rankings are subject to change as more data is gathered, they provide a roadmap for where to increase or decrease exposure based on realized returns rather than speculative hope.

High-APR Mirage: Volume vs. Return

A notable observation this week was an asset displaying a daily APR of 18.8%, which mathematically extrapolates to an astounding 6.87k% per year. In a professional framework, such numbers are treated with extreme skepticism rather than excitement.

Risk Management Note: While these figures are "wonderful to observe," they are frequently a function of thin order books. As noted, the volume isn't always there to support such returns. For a disciplined trader, a 6,000% APR is meaningless if the liquidity does not allow for a meaningful entry or, more importantly, a safe exit. We acknowledge the existence of these anomalies but prioritize assets where returns can actually be realized at scale.

The 10-Cent Floor

The $HIVE price action has successfully cleared the 10-cent mark and, crucially, has maintained that level. The market structure currently suggests that this psychological threshold is transitioning from a ceiling to a potential floor.

While the sentiment is that it "might stay there," we maintain a state of probabilistic uncertainty. We do not assume the move is permanent, but we recognize the increased stability it provides to our denominated gains. If $HIVE continues to consolidate above this level, it allows us to plan for a higher baseline of purchasing power for the remainder of the quarter.
