I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #968 - Daily ALIVE Dividends Going Live, and a Plan to Grow Them - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Saturday, March 22, 2025

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 5 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'm happy to announce that the daily dividend payouts for held and/or staked ALIVE are finally ready to go live, and they'll be activated as soon as Bjorn gets a spare moment, which will likely be Monday. For the moment we're sending out ALIVE, BBH, PEPE, and LOLZ, and I'll be growing our income in those tokens strongly, as well as getting income started for all manner of other useful and valuable tokens. This is a new fun challenge for me to grow the quantities and variety of the tokens that are sent out for daily dividends, because I want a happy community that is #AliveAndThriving.

With the daily payouts rolling, my plan to both increase the amounts of the payout tokens, and to add new assets to the payouts, will be, in part, to increase liquidity in various excellent diesel/liquidity pools that offer a good array of useful and valuable tokens as daily rewards. Once I'm able to reach a certain level of liquidity, the daily reward payouts for certain tokens will begin to move into a range where they could potentially be added to the Alive dividend payouts as well.

I'll also be working on growing our income and holding in various income tokens, like BBHO, BRO, LGN, SIM, ATF, ATX, PWR, among a few others, to at some point also be able to include those in the daily payouts. The amounts of most income tokens sent out would be quite small (but it would increase over time), due to their value, but I can tell you that small drips every day certainly add up over time.

My intention is to make the ALIVE token, and therefore ALIVEM as well, one of the most valuable and coveted assets on Hive. This will take time, it's true, and hence patience, but I can say with certainty that the benefits and value for both held, and especially staked ALIVE, will increase week to week moving forward.

The next item on the list is to get dividend payouts for AP and HP delegated to community accounts started again, paid in their respective token, ALIVE and HIVE. We're pulling in enough HIVE from our delegation of 20,000+ BEE to @bee.voter, around 55 each week, that some of it could be diverted to payouts for HP delegators, while also still continuing to grow the Hive Power on @alive.chat and @aliveandthriving. This is basically ready to implement, since it's already in the payout script, so now I just have to decide on the amounts of ALIVE and HIVE to use, and what the payout cadence will be. Regardless of the last few minor decisions, we'll be re-activating delegation rewards very soon as well. With the various ways that we're working to add value to the ALIVE token, it's price is sure to rise notably in the near future, so I'd recommend acquiring more while the price is still so low! Just sayin'!

Yesterday, Saturday, after finishing up my Hive tasks, I prepared for my session with Nadia at 1:30PM. It was more than a year since I last worked with Nadia, but I had a feeling that she'd pop up again at some point, and sure enough, she did. Nadia arrived on time, and after a short check-in, we started, despite the less-than-ideal weather, which was cloudy, rainy, and a bit chilly. We finished just after 5:30PM, with Nadia leaving very happy and grateful just before 6PM. It was a joy to work with Nadia once again, and she felt likewise, so I know that I'll see her again. After Nadia left, I stopped by the Landing to collect my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and then I returned directly to the Flow House, to dive into my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I finished everything by around 10:30PM, and after some asset management, checking in on Bastyon and Qortal, and a scan of my X feed, I went to bed by about 11:45AM. I woke up just after 7AM, having slept slept well, doing more asset management, starting on this post, then getting out of bed around 7:45AM to go make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, before returning to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 12:45PM, so a lovely time to end this post, so that I may get to my other few important Hive tasks, before preparing for my mini-session with Lizzie at 1:30PM, more photography for these posts, straining and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao), and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's edition of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

2025 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
