The Busy Bees

Hey everyone! Welcome to a new week! I hope you all had a good time! I had a whole weekend off so that's great!

I think that there was someone new who asked to join the Busy Bees... sorry, I can't find that comment or request and can't remember who it was! Please ask again.

Ecency Points to distribute

Some community members have been sending me Ecency Points to distribute. They are as follows:
@papilloncharity sent me 30,000 Ecency points.
@melinda010100 sent me 140,000 Ecency points.
@alonicus sent me 48,500 Ecency points.
@chaosmagic23 sent me 30,000 Ecency points!
@zakludick (me) added 5,000 Ecency points to this fund.
@tydynrain sent me 2,000 Ecency points to this fund.
@itsostylish sent me 7,000 Ecency points to this fund.
@shaidon sent me 30,000 Ecency points to this fund.
@okarun sent me @5,000 Ecency Points!
Total: 220,500 Ecency points has been put into this fund in all history of this group! Wow!

200pts to an Active Busy Bee Redfish.
100pts to an Active Busy Bee Minnow.

Last week we had 29,100 points left.
This week I have 3,600 to distribute, which will put the fund on 25,500 points.

Donations of more Ecency Points are welcome! (PS please send me a message on a comment somewhere and let me know, otherwise I might forget to count it!

Welcome

No new Bees.

Congratulations!

Promotions

Well done to @clairemobey for moving back to the Minnow Category!

Milestones of 1,000HP Increments

Congratulations to @cryptoancoffee for hitting the 171,000HP Milestone!
Congratulations to @papilloncharity for hitting the 153,000HP Milestone!
Congratulations to @tengolotodo for hitting the 16,000HP Milestone!
Congratulations to @p1k4ppa10 for hitting the 8,000HP Milestone!

The Basic Rules of Activity

  • Activity means posting and commenting within a 30-day time.

  • Posting weekly is recommended.

  • Supporting one another with votes and engagement is encouraged. There is zero enforcement, we just recommend it. If you want people on Hive who will speak and interact with you - just look at the people in this list!

There are a few accounts (like the top Minnows) that have gone inactive that I do NOT take down due to inactivity. This is mainly to give the active Minnows and Redfish something to aim at. It would also be really cool to see you guys catch up to these larger accounts due to your activity vs the inactivity of these accounts.

NOTE that these rules are going to change to suit the 100 ACTIVE accounts vision. Once we have 100 Active members those inactive placeholders will fall away. Then we will really become a powerhouse.

Nomination of Gifts

My Nomination of sharing 50% of this post's payout goes to @chatsunny for being the lowest HP account that posted something this week. (and is not on a negative HP growth or joined this week, or holding posting rewards unclaimed for weeks that would put you ahead of others who also could grow.)

In support of our Redfish doing well, For @alonicus' SBI gifts I nominate: @josueelinfame and @lecia89! Well done! Great growth and performance!

Let's go! Good luck for the new week!

Just twice that cut-off and a Hive account can meet the !ALIVE token tipping cut-off of 1,000 staked ALIVE tokens, which allows a person on Hive to tip 0.1 ALIVE 10 times a day. 🖖😎

I wonder if you consider a (free weekly) raffle for all !ALIVE token holders a good idea (where the chances of winning depend on how much ALIVE token they have staked), both for active #WeAreAlive tribe members who would be encouraged to hold more ALIVE, and for not-so-active members who still hold ALIVE to be surprised when they find out that they won such raffle. 🤓

I like the idea, but we need more people to host such community activities. One of our main people who hosts two activities each week went MIA last week, and he still hasn't appeared yet. I'm quite concerned about him. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

A person on Hive who suddenly became (very) busy or encounters an emergency in real life can simply comment (or post) with something like "be back after a week", so that most (if not all) of their followers would avoid worrying about them. 🧘‍♂️🤗

I really think that your "keyboard autocorrect" (or your "quick typing fingers" which just recently started affecting how you type) made you type "never" !INSTEAD of "ever", though there's the (small) chance that what's on your comment was what you !INDEED intended to type. 🤯😅

If your "keyboard autocorrect" really wanted to fix the typing mistakes of your "quick typing fingers", then it would have already done so (since a long time ago)! 🤯 That's why I think that your fingers have joined your keyboard in "autocorrecting" !INDEED! 🤣😂

We have a delegation of 20,000+ BEE to @bee.voter, which gives us 40-55 HIVE weekly. Up until now I've been using it to boost the HP of our community curation and activity accounts, but with the recent changes to LOLZ, I decided that it was time to up our game, and give back to our loyal community even more, so yeah, if Bjorn has enough time to make the changes to the payout scripts, then anyone holding and/or staking 500 ALIVE or more will receive HIVE every day starting October 1st. I have the HIVE already ready, so it's just a script update and we'll be rolling. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

In other words, you are saying that ALIVE is a solid investment.

Is there any sort of way to calculate a ROI on it?

How do you receive ALIVE every day?

0

Well, as with any layer-2 project, the value of the token is based on trust in us to keep working to add value over time. For my part, I will do everything in my power to continue building and growing the We Are Alive Tribe, and coming up with new ways to make ALIVE more useful and valuable to hold and/or stake. We have a committed and dedicated team that loves this community and our token, so for me it's a very good investment.

That's a good question. It's more complex because other assets are in the mix, since we have multiple layer-2 tokens sent out daily in the ALIVE dividend payouts, with HIVE included now as well. I'll add different tokens over time, and when feasible, I'll increase the amounts of each token that is sent out.

Well, aside from tips and winning in @benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive contests, I receive somewhere around 30 per day just for having ALIVE staked. It just says 'tokens received', but not from where they come. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Also @zakludick i am also going to bring in more ways you can earn and win Alive tokens and one more thing i should mention is i am bullrush on Hive for alive with no intentions of selling it ever.

I have a goal to reach 1 million alive staked long term and short term i am heading to 200,000 before the end of the year @benthomaswwd

Just holding and delegating alive will get you more plus all the extra ways we will provide that are coming up.

We have a great team geared to supporting your journey.

If you are a consistently active blogger on Hive and post frequently, and you interact with at least SOME of the Bees on the Busy Bees then you can become one of us!

I see on your feed one recent post and then posts 2 months ago... I would reccommend more consistent posting!

Sorry, I've been a bit absent for the last week (waaay too many real life things going on !) But in the meantime, you've all been posting and curating hard, so I've got some catching up to do !

I've done the important thing and sent the SBI's for this week to @lecia89 and @josueelinfame as well as catching up with last week's to @lecia89 and @clairemobey. Good work, chaps !
