I've been here for so long that Hive has become a big (and addictive) part of my life. However except for the possibility of one of my crypto investments giving me a miracle, I had no thoughts that I would ever get rich because of Hive. Even if every post received a big curation (which is impossible) it would take a decade or two to become a whale.

My viewpoint has sort of changed after seeing a couple of posts in the last month or so. @arcange and others have managed to build up their accounts to a life changing amount, financially. Not to mention the much more important rewards of finding an extended family, and helping others.

Congratulations, you are all a true inspiration to this little fish :) ! I do love a success story, especially when the recipient is deserving.

I'm still powering up some Hive from my liquid rewards regularly, despite having an account that I'm proud of. Why? Because I believe in the platform. I also want to contribute something via curation, and right now my vote is still pretty unimpressive.

 I'm enjoying that 20% from my HBD savings too :) Also, I'm still diversifying, in hopes that one of my picks will pay off big time. If that ever happens, you can bet I'll be getting the Big Bee Badge each and every month!

One token that I've started to scoop up / trade is DREEM. It's the Hive-Engine token for @dreemport  [Dreemport](https://dreemport.com/) . 

Once you go look at it, you'll see that there are very few tokens for sale, and even less volume. So why am I stacking it? Because I believe in the project :) ...

Dreemport is not only about submitting your links, and looking at other people's posts. It's growing into other fun, engaging facets of connecting as well. And I have every reason to believe this is just the beginning.

The team is full of dedicated, passionate people. They not only want to make Dreemport a success financially, but are also determined see it change many lives for the better. 

A solid plan combined with passion is something I'm willing to invest in! That it's helping Hive with the retention of new users already tells me that my initial feeling is correct. Dreemport is something special.

I've also purchased a small amount of Leo, which is constantly under development. I think we all know about Threads, the Leo Dex, and liquidity pools. I can't wait to see what they have in store for us next!

I've also invested a very small amount in SCC (the Stakecube coin) while I'm in a position to do so. When I first discovered the platform, they were going for over a thousand sats each. Due to a disaster which the remaining team dealt with honestly and fairly, by listening to their community,  the price has plummeted. 

Obviously it will take a long while to recover, especially in a bear market.  I see that as an opportunity. Obviously there is a high risk, especially with increasing regulations. But for me, I feel like it's worth it, in small amounts.

I'm still excited about LGN, and am hodling. But I'm trying to build up my stacks of DREEM and Leo before adding to it further :) ...

I'm also going to try for another PUM (Power Up Month) badge! Let's hope I find enough inspiration to write those posts!

As my HP increases, I see my opportunities to help the community increasing with it. Despite the high APR on HBD, I don't regret my past big power ups :)

This is a 100% power up post
