I was browsing Twitter yesterday and randomly came across a tweet by @niallon11 who was the largest power up on the 28th of December.

What was most fascinating was on the day I came across the tweet, which was on the 29th, I had just powered up some odd 2100 Hive to my account on the back of some very exciting news.

Now, I am not a rich guy. Not in the slightest. I am your common dude trying to earn a living and hopefully strike crypto gold in the near future. Hive is one of those crypto's I threw mostly everything I had into trying to hit my goal of 10,000 Hive Power.

That is my magic number.

And just like @niallon11, I had a reason(s) for committing over 90% of my resources to the Hive blockchain and the spirit of what it is trying to achieve.

At the base of it all is the primal need to want to make money and on a higher level, is to have the ability to be self-sufficient and influential in the sense that I can help many other people like me build an investment that could potentially outlive them for generations which is what I believe crypto will achieve.

In the immediate future, there are two projects that I really want to be a part of.

1 : ThreeSpeak Incentive Layer.

Now, I am still yet to grasp much of the technical stuff around the new token system coming to 3Speak.

In the coming months, the whitepaper will be released giving us more information. A couple of things are clear though.

A 'claim-drop' will be done for people holding the Hive token.

The snapshot date has yet to be confirmed.

Hive holders will receive LARYNX which is the mining token and you will need to claim a bit of it each month for at least an year.

This ensures only the active Hive users retain most of the LARYNX.

The biggest aspect though is that the model provides a sink for the Hive token. What I understand is that it is permanently locked away which in effect helps make Hive more scarce and hence more valuable in the long term among other cool things.

As an investor, that should get you super excited.

2 : Leo Development (#LEOsisterproject)

If you haven't seen the tweet yet, what are you doing?

Follow Leofinance on Twitter to catch the news hot off the press.

As soon as I saw this tweet, I immediately started buying up some more LEO. It didn't take long for the word to spread though and the price rally kicked off.

I have to admit I am clueless about the sister project. However, I have been intending on buying up some more Leo anyway. I will research on it later.

All I know is that I did not want to be left behind.

Conclusion

---

Here we have two of the best run second-layer projects with promising futures. They are pushing the boundaries of what we thought possible, especially for me.

This is possibly the last time you will ever get Hive this cheap ever again especially if the sink starts eating into the Hive supply.

Leo is already double the value of Hive. Who knows how far it can go with all the innovation and onboarding taking place here.

Give in to the FOMO! ;)
