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 7 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 happy to announce that, thanks to the 100 BEE that @benthomaswwd sent me (thank you so much, Ben!), I was able to reactivate the liquidity rewards for our ALIVE:ALIVEM liquidity pool this morning, with a distribution contract of 365 days, and a 5% bonus applied to the entire distribution period. To start, I added 1,000 ALIVE and 10 ALIVEM, and I'll add more over time. Since we need all the BEE we can get at the moment, I decided to swap it out for our ALIVE miner token, ALIVEM, which is not so easy to aquire (there's presently 1 sell order on the market), as a comparable replacement (how's that, @iamraincrystal?).
With the liquidity rewards now reactivated for the ALIVE:ALIVEM pool, my sights are now set on acquiring 1,000 BEE to create our next ALIVE pool on the list, ALIVE:SWAP.BLURT, to solidify our growing connection with, and presence on, the Blurt Blockchain. Both ALIVE and SWAP.BLURT have high swapping/trading volumes when paired with SWAP.HIVE, so I'm expecting a fair amount of it with them paired together. This soon-to-be pool would allow for people to easily use BLURT to increase their holding and stake of ALIVE, and to use ALIVE to grow their Blurt Power on BLURT. Not a bad deal, I'd say.
After ALIVE:SWAP.BLURT, our next ALIVE pool will be ALIVE:SWAP.BTC, for obvious reasons, with BTC still being the overall best crypto investment in history, always trending upward in value over time. Giving people the option to easily swap their ALIVE for BTC makes ALIVE all the more useful, and thus more valuable.
Creating direct bridges, which is exactly what diesel/liquidity pools are, between ALIVE, and multiple important off-chain cryto assets, will allow people to invest in those assets using ALIVE, and as I just said, it will make ALIVE ever-more useful and valuable, and as ALIVE continues to become a solid layer-2 investment, people will be able to swap these off-chain crypto assets directly for ALIVE.
Our new ALIVE:SWAP.HIVE Pool has already seen impressively-heavy trading volume, $97.17/8,759.063 ALIVE/407.363 SWAP.HIVE, which is truly amazing to me, and as interest in ALIVE continues to grow, so will its swapping/trading volume, and along with it the pool fees earned by our liquidity providers. Yep, things in the ALIVE world are getting quite interesting indeed!
Yesterday, Thursday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-We Are Alive Tribe tasks, by a little after 2PM, putting my attention on some photography for my posts first. With that completed to my satisfaction, I felt inspired to make another batch of my special spiced-and-seasoned popcorn in the Landing. After nibbling on that for a while with Chelsea, I got my machete, sharpened it, then I went to do more clearing in the front orchard. After I had another good area cleared, I took a shower, ate my fill of some leftover food that I had in the Landing fridge (along with more popcorn), then I collected my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and I headed back to the Flow House to begin my evening Hive-Blurt-We Are Alive Tribe tasks. I got everything done quite early, by around 8:30PM, and after some asset management, I went to bed just after 10PM. I woke up around 6:30AM, having slept 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 11:45AM, so it's a grand time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my few other important Hive-Blurt-We Are Alive Tribe tasks, before preparing for a session that's scheduled for 1:30PM. I deeply appreciate y'all do 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.
All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.
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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
