I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 6 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
I'm going to say it again, but I'm super grateful that my latest fiat-to-crypto investment into Hive was sent so much earlier than expected (almost a week sooner), and that I was able to get my received SWAP.LTC into the SWAP.HIVE:SWAP.LTC diesel/liquidity pool, as the fees earned in that pool, with that level of liquidity, are really quite amazing. In total, my assets in that pool will be earning pool fees for 98 days, which based on the present rate of fee accrual, should give them a notable boost for my mega powerup for the December HPUD.
It's been just about 44 hours since I added my $600 worth of assets from this latest fiat investment into the SWAP.HIVE:SWAP.LTC diesel/liquidity pool, and I have some interesting numbers to share with you today. At the 24-hour mark, my pool-fee earnings for that pool were at 0.22145329 SWAP.HIVE/0.00033891 SWAP.LTC, and right now, after 44 hours, they are at 0.35832577 SWAP.HIVE/0.00057296 SWAP.LTC, which is the quickest that I've ever seen pool fees accrue. I'll be sure to record where it's at when I get to 48 hours, and compare that to what it was at 24 hours.
If I earn about the same during this next 24-hour period, then the earned-fee extrapolation to November 30th, which is presently when I plan to remove my assets from the pool, are estimated to equal about 43.4 HIVE, which will be a nice boost to my December HPUD mega-powerup. For my next $600 fiat investment, that I hope to make in three-months time, which I plan to add into the same pool, and that will remain in the pool as a long-term investment, the estimated earned fees after one year would be equal to about 161.661 HIVE. That's quite a respectable profit I'd say.
The SWAP.HIVE:SWAP.BTC pool has the 3rd highest ranking for earned pool fees, so $600 in assets in that pool would generate even better better fees than the SWAP.HIVE:SWAP.LTC pool, which has a earned-fees ranking of 6th. Given how massively that BTC is very likely to increase in value soon, getting assets in this pool is a high priority indeed.
With sufficient liquidity, off-chain-leveraging pools like this are a very solid way to invest and grow important assets over time, and they will be my primary focus for many fiat investments to come, and for very good reason. I said recently that I felt like my Hive investing was going to a whole new level, and I definitely think that this is true. The more that I invest, whether via fiat cash or off-chain crypto assets, the more leverage that I have to grow my assets ever more quickly. Hive is a compounding interest and exponential growth machine, and I intend to make use of that glorious quality very well indeed.
Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, much earlier than usual, a little after 11:30AM, talking with Avi in the Landing for a good while, before my meeting with the leadership council at 1:30PM. The meeting was to redefine my relationship with GaiaYoga Gardens, and overall it went very well, though there still needs to be some negotiations around expenses. After the meeting, I took a short asset-management break up at the Flow House, after which I went to finish the weeding job that I had started a couple days ago at the garden bed in front of the Bedouin. When that was done, I went to the Landing to make myself some food (spiced-and-seasoned mini beef patties and horseradish mustard), and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hand(s), I headed back to the Flow House, to get an early start on my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I paused that for an hour and a half to go attend the Monday community logistics meeting, and soon after it was over, I made my way back across the property to the Flow House to continue with Hive. I got everything done by about 9:30PM, and after some asset management, and a scan of my X feed, I went to bed just before 11PM. I woke up about 5:30AM, having slept fairly well, doing more asset management, going to make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, then returning to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 1:15PM, so a marvelous time to wrap this up, so that I may get to my other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography for my posts, collecting coconut water and coconut meat from several younger coconuts to start another round of kefir fermenting, and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's iteration of these posts! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2025 Life Goals
1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.
2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.
4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
