As I checked my blog today, I noticed that a number had changed:
I realize it's not very much, in the greater scale of things, but I wanted to record it in a brief blog, if for no other reason to "save the date," and to remind myself that I stuck around and didn't just cash out my Blurt after the initial fork.
"Investing" When You Have no Money...
In my travels around the Cryptosphere, I often come across investing truisms like "buy the dip" and "buy low, sell high!"
Whereas I certainly recognize the wisdom in such statements, I also know how it works to live and try to "invest" when you have no money.
There is no "buying the dip" when even $10 means being able to buy the food that feeds us for a couple of days.
So "investing" becomes what you are doing when you create 100% powered up posts, or you don't power down your balance for any reasons other than emergencies.
And I suppose it is a form of investing, in the sense that even when you have no money, the tiny payout from posts and comments and curation gradually add up to something.
Patience is Essential!
Of course, I am very grateful to even have the opportunity to engage in this type of investing without original capital, as a result of simply earning rewards for blogging content!
Whereas I have been part of "pay for content" web sites sine 1999, this is the first time the rewards translate directly into stake in the very venue we are using.
In a sense, it is the perfect setup for those among us who are very patient and willing to view the venue as a long term investment proposition, rather than an "immediate cash in pocket" proposition.
Anyway, I have a busy working day going , so I'm going to go ahead and get this published!
In the meantime, I appreciate the support and opportunity that has gotten me as far as this!
DO leave me a comment — engagement matters! Communities are built because people INTERACT with each other through the content that's created! So share your opinion, be part of the conversation! I do my best to answer all worthy comments!

Congratulations… that’s how I got to 1 Million Blurt. I also bought the dips on Hive-Engine and Ionomy … some days it dropped to almost zero, you can get a lot of Blurt at that price. $1 at a time… lol … every now and then some Whale dumps his Blurt on Hive-Engine. Scoop it up.

Yeah, I'm going to have to keep closer tabs on Hive-Engine, I know occasionally there are some odd "sudden dips," and I often have bits and pieces of "Swap-Hive" sitting around as dividends from various investment tokens I have.
First of all congratulations on your achievement. "Invest in hard times and patience". Two things that are easy to say, but hard to do. So far, many people think that new investments can be made when they are in sufficient condition. Although not entirely wrong, but a good investment must start from we have nothing. Both in terms of time investment, social investment, and capital investment.
What you do is consistent results over a long period of time. This is not fully realized and able to be done by many people, including me. I think it is very much determined by the strong will of each person. Nothing is instant in this world, except indomie in my country. The process determines the outcome.
I just plan to keep methodically plodding forward with my stake on Blurt. I was not very active for a while because there were a lot of instances of getting errors when I tried to post, and it seems a bunch of my early images were lost, but now that there are multiple front end options, those issues seem to have been resolved.
