Hello all! Another week and it’s time again to do another #myhivegoals post, a series idea started by started by @jongolson. This also doubles as my weekly progress report for #saturdaysavers, which is a fun little group that tries to motivate everyone to save and reach their goals. I’m going to look at the progress I’ve made on my Hive goals, as well as give a few tokens I’m looking at right now. If you are here for the comment SBI giveaway, well, we’ll get to that too.

Let’s start with my Hive goals.

Hive & HBD

My current goal is 35k Hive.

Last week I increased by 623.45 Hive ower, bringing me to 33,558.170 total Hive Power. 200 of that was from yesterday’s HPUD and most of the rest from my daily powerups last week, so again we aren’t talking about organic growth, but oh well.. That’s still 95.9% of my goal!! Almost there!

Math time. 35k - 33,558.170 gives us 1441.83. Divided out by the days till the first of next year, we get 11.9 Hive needed per day to reach 35k by that point.

11.9 is now well within my organic growth, so even if I stop buying Hive, I should reach that easily. Let’s see when exactly I hit that 35k goal. After I do, I may keep pushing for my stretch 40k goal, or I may put the rest towards my BRO or PIMP goals. We’ll play it by ear.

Second Layer Tokens

Token	Last week total	Goal	Needed	Note
LGN	—	2000	0	Goal Met
BRO	0.223	1000	387.8951	61.2% of the way there!
PIMP	468.17	100k	10932.009	89.1% of the way there!
CINE	295.744	—	—

As you can see, I didn’t gain much BRO. My PIMP and CINE earnings both were higher than usual. I’m not sure what happened there, but I’m not going to look a gifthorse in the mouth.

Silver

The silver chart for last week:

Man, every time things seem to be going good and we are over $30, it falls back below a week or so later. I guess the silver market is facing the same uncertainty of the crypto markets. Oh well.

Here is a good looking coin that I came across today:

A John Wick 1oz coin. Pretty cool. It seems to be going for $33–35, so you are paying a premium of a few dollars. But it is a cool collectable coin.
