What was Hive worth 3 years ago?

Wow! It's been an exciting 3 years. Hive is currently worth 0.065 USD and I am happy. Why?

Because I am not here for the money but for the #FUN and my goal and objective is to do what I can so the product of my fun is creating digital wealth for me to share with Hivers.

The more I help people earn on Hive the more I earn on Hive. It took me a while to get a good understanding of the many ways to earn on Hive. So, I created a purpose and a motto.

Lean Before You Earn anything.

I practice what I preach and I follow my own advice until a better advice comes along. I am in no rush and I believe I have turtle DNA in me so I make the best of it.

A quick Google search suggest that I have a significant amount of genetic material with a common ancestor from 310 million years ago. And humans share 60% of their protein-coding genes with many vertebrate animals, including reptiles.

Maybe I was a turtle in another life. Hmm, reincarnation? Nah! I didn't believe that the last time I was here so not going to believe it now.

I am having a couple of flashback now. In the 80s I did a lot of road trips related to work. I was a troubleshooter for NB Power where I worked out of Head Office and travelled all over the province to solve problems in Power Generating Stations. On one road trip, I was in a hurry to get to a plant because it was an emergency. I had a rented K-Car and I drove it hard. Passing every vehicle and feeling joy for being in the groove until I came up to what looked like a shagging wagon from the 70s. The van came close to a complete stop when it approached a railway crossing. I was very familiar with the road and knew I would have to brake hard so not to pass and I was thinking, c'mon, why so slow? Well, I got close enough to read the bummer sticker and I loved it. It said, I may be slow but I am ahead of you. That incident and moment changed my perspective forever.

Now for the 2nd flatback. Working out of Head Office, I was a regular at the company cafeteria. I would take my time to decide what I wanted from the menu. Sometimes folks behind me in the line would say, something like, your not in a hurry are you? To that, I would say I have 2 speeds. My other speed is slower.

Moral of the story.

I am in no hurry and I keep moving forward. I may take a step back to re-evaluate my next move but I do not live in the past. I live in the moment.

A lot has been achieved in the last 3 years. I started with sharing my ePayTraffic(EPT) idea that became Project ePayTraffic(PEPT) and evolved into a Perpetual Economic Power Terraformer game.

After spending much time looking at what others share on Hive and how much they earn from their online activities I decided to take the plunge into creating something different. Why not? I am an odd duck, I mean turtle, wait, my spiders sense is telling me something different. You be you.

Me being me is all about Continuous Process Improvement(CPI).

At the core of CPI is a TooFuckeh problem solving token game piece. It has taken me 3 years to build a solid foundation for The PEPT Game use cases on Hive. Now if your an active follower, you would know that #3 is a powerful number for me and so is number seven. That means the next 4 years are going to be a period of continuous digital growth on Hive.

Thank you to everyone that has helped me succeed on Hive. The list is long but I will mention a few Hivers that have taken a position and risk in supporting a 2-fa-k problem solving use case on Hive.

@edgerik @globalcontac @bradleyarrow @knightmarey @ecoinstant @ahmadmanga @imfarhad @hafiz34 @aliveandthriving @l3w1s @pinkfloyd878 @lisamgentile1961 @iamraincrystal @v-36 @chaosmagic23 @rajpootg @drkelp1955 @tydynrain @dbooster @slothbuzz @beelzael @cryptounicorn420 @newigennity @keithtaylor @w1tty

My apology if I did not mention you. There are also many Hivers that I have learned much from via discord. In particular, the regulars in The PIMP District.

As a way to share some thanks I offer you an @FJism token.

Hive is always an interesting place to be. Right now the price is way down, but there is a positive vibe with new projects happening at a nice pace.

I am not here for the money but for the #FUN

I am with you on this! Let's have some fun, solve some problems and interact like mature adults who discuss ideas with respect for others.

I did upvote this, and I do accept gifts. :)

Happy Monday and I wish you a great week ahead!

Sometimes it's good to slow down. I, too, am here for the fun. And all this tokens and their meaning and different ideas are fun to investigate. It I have the time that is... But in the end, I didn't invest much. So I don't care much. Splinterlands is a hobby, and I spend a lot on it last year - reaping the harvest in Form of having fun with the game. If it goes to the moon, great. If it doesn't, great. As long as I can keep playing.

Great stories! "I may be slow but I am ahead of you", that's the perfect motto for consistent progress. Your journey with PEPT over the past 3 years proves that taking your time and staying committed pays off. You be you, and keep moving forward!
Voted, although my vote power is not big. And I do accept gifts.
