I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1456 - Rebuilding the We Are Alive Tribe's HIVE Income Will Be Slow and Steady with a Jump After August 1st - Big Island, Hawai'i - Tuesday, July 14, 2026

I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 7 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I really do wish that I could rebuild the We Are Alive Tribe's HIVE income streams a lot more quickly than I am, but with our current resources and allocations, the process will be a slow-and-steady one for at least the rest of July. I'll be claiming my last round of interest from my HBD in Savings in under 48 hours, and then withdrawing the whole amount of 655+ HBD, to then swap it for HIVE, which at the current prices should give me a somewhere over 13k HIVE. I'll hold that in liquid form until I power it up on the August HPUD, at which point a large chunk of it will be delegated to @dab-vote, which will notably increase my weekly DAB income. Although I will make sure that my holding of liquid DAB is still increasing, I will also begin loaning a good bit of it each week to @aliveandthriving, which will accelerate the growth of the We Are Alive Tribe's daily HIVE income.

If and when the DBOND-DAB-RUG project is brought to a close, which it very well may be at some point fairly soon, the DBOND on @aliveandthriving, which is backed 1:1 with HIVE/SWAP.HIVE, will be swapped for HIVE, powered up, and then delegated to Bradley's account, @bradleyarrow. DAB is not backed in the same manner, so when it's bought back, it would probably be done so in the range of 0.2-0.3 HIVE/SWAP.HIVE, which would give another boost to the amount of HIVE that can be powered up and delegated to Bradley's account. It's my intention to use the DAB to grow the delegated HP to Bradley on @aliveandthriving as much as possible before the project ends. In the meantime the staked DBOND on @aliveandthriving will continue to grow as well, which while the project is still operating, will keep growing our DAB holding.

Our delegation of 2,000 HP split between @aliveandthriving and @youarealive will also continue growing our HSBIDAO holding, which between what we have sitting in @aliveandthriving's wallet, and paired in the HSBIDAO pools, is already past 1k HSBIDAO, so we're in a good position with that asset, and that position is improving daily. Simultaneously, I'm also beginning to delegate SPORTS to @centtoken, which will give weekly payouts in CENT, that will be continually staked and delegated, and once we have sufficient staked CENT, that too will be delegated to @centtoken for weekly HBD payouts.

All new HIVE that arrives on We Are Alive Tribe accounts, except Ben's accounts, is being sent to @aliveandthriving to power up and delegate to Bradley, which is allowing me to slowly increase our daily HIVE income without lowering @aliveandthriving's effective HP. It's very modest growth at this stage to be sure, but it is compounding a little each day.

To be able to replace our previous exceptional HIVE income that was lost, I'll need to grow our daily HIVE income into the range of 8.76 HIVE received daily, which sure isn't going to be easy or quick, and I may just decide to start distributing less HIVE each week before that point is reached, but that's income level is my present goal. We still have quite a way to go, but as always I'll do my best, and I'll keep all of you updated on my progress.

Yesterday, Tuesday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by just after 2PM, giving my attention to some photography for my posts first, after which I dug another round of planting holes in the durian orchard. I didn't have a lot of motivation to do more work after that, so I opted to take a shower and to go lay in the sun on the trampoline in the Peanut Lawn for a while, before heating myself up some food, and collecting my leftover superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, then heading back to the Flow House to scan my X feed for a bit, and to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got through all my notifications by just after 9PM, and after scanning my X feed a bit more, I went to bed by just before 11:15PM. I woke up quite late, by around 8:30AM, having slept well, going to prepare my superfood fire coffee and to make breakfast in Wabisabi, before returning to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 12PM, so it's a great time to wrap this post up, so that I may attend to my few other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks before preparing for a session that's scheduled for 1:30PM. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's manifestation of these posts! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

2026 Life Goals

1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.

2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.

3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.

4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Vote for our @aliveandmmb Witness Node!

This is our collaboratively shared Witness node between the We Are Alive Tribe, and @borniet's and my MMB (Maximum Mutual Benefit) Project, here to build something good for all of us! The higher in the witness ranking we go, the more that we'll be able to grow the We Are Alive Tribe, and the more that we'll be able to share with all of you!

If you appreciate what we're doing with the We Are Alive Tribe, and feel inspired and motivated to lend a hand in building and growing our decentralized community economy and financial framework, which benefits all of us, community conntributions/donations/investments may be sent to our 'We Are Alive Tribe Sovereign Wealth Investment Fund' account, @waat-swif. They're deeply appreciated, and are put to very good use.

Vote for @borniet's @botlord Witness Node!

Bjorn is our badass coder who hosts and manages our (and also Bradley's) community backends, he creates all sorts of useful tools, and he assists people all over the Blockchain constantly. He redefines the term 'busy'!

Vote for @bradleyarrow's Witness Node!

Bradley's tenaciously committed and all-in on Hive for the long haul (just like me!), and the higher his witness goes in the ranking, the higher the weekly BBH and BBHO dividend payouts will be!

Join the worldwide Satsman Army! It's by far the best, most fun, inspiring, and motivating way to earn Bitcoin/BTC!
