Follow Friday: Fireworks

in #hive2 months ago

The News

I will start with my usual price chart that I generate with a little script. $HIVE is maintaining a lead over the 'legacy crapcoin' and may pull away. I see $TRON is doing better, but I only really include that due to the history of the Great Fork. I have no idea what use it is. The level two coins are not doing much.

Prices from @coingecko

Next week is Bonfire Night in the UK when many fireworks will be set off on the same day that the USA chooses a new president. It does seem to be a very close race despite one candidate being a convicted criminal and sex offender as well as a racist, vindictive bully. But then some people like him due to what he says about crypto. I would not believe him on that (or anything), but I do not get a vote. The world waits...

Friday Follows

  • @fatjimmy makes some cool looking guitar amplifiers. He did a great post on his friendship with the bassist of The Grateful Dead who just died.
  • @ph1102 just joined the 100k HP club. We have almost 200 people with that much HP. You can check on where you rank on HiveBuzz.
  • Prolific Hive cartoonist @sidekickmatt has been doing Zingtober with daily drawings as well as his comic strips. Some other people did this too. You can check that out in their community.
  • @risingstargame has another active community. At the start of each month they issue a load more new cards. Some people buy thousands of packs to try to get them all. They also have some special Halloween missions right now.

The Dog House

This one was close to home. I was checking the feed of communities I follow and saw a couple of posts that looked familiar. Here is one that has just copied one of my old posts. Another account did the same. Of course I downvoted them. Reducing their reputation gives a good indication that they are frauds. Both accounts were created in 2021, so somebody has been holding them for a while without using them.

Witnesses @louis88 looked into the recent wave of spam posts that these may have been part of. We have to be vigilant as we will see more such attacks, especially if the price goes up.

The End

As we enter another month I will be doing the #BritList tomorrow. I have a few more people to include and some potential ones to check on. I do not always believe the locations people put on their profiles. It is best to be honest on Hive as you are likely to be found out.

Some of the rewards from this post go to people mentioned and @commentrewarder gets some too so that comments I vote up will get extra rewards.

This reminds me I need/wish to restart #appreciationfriday initiative 😁

WHat could be time frame on an average if a non-tech guy wants to learn python language Sir?

It depends on what you want to learn. I am sure there are plenty of courses out there, but a few months should give you basic knowledge.

Ok, thanks

I'd better go congratulate Zoltan or I might forget later on with a bunch of other stuff that I still have to do today... Thanks for bringing that to our attention!

Have fun setting off your fireworks! There are likely going to be a lot of those here too in the figurative sense! It's really telling of a lot of peoples character that they would choose to overlook or explain away the things that make the one candidate unsuitable for the job.

I'd be interested to know which scripting language you use for y9ur chart.

It's Python using the Coingecko API.

Thanks - Python's my favourite language.

I have various scripts for Hive on the linked Github. I just play around with it, but use Python at work.

I'll see if I can find them.

Thanks for the mention, Steve! It's nice to be part of the 100K HP Club!!!

@risingstargame has another active community. At the start of each month they issue a load more new cards. Some people buy thousands of packs to try to get them all.

I have a strange feeling that you are one of "those people" 😜 hehehehe

I'm not buying thousands, but I do buy around a hundred(s) per month... 🤣

I don't buy hundreds of packs. I usually buy 12 each day and a few more on the 1st. I need what I make it the game to buy Starpro for the missions.

The beauty of RisingStar is that everyone can have their own strategy for playing... And there is no right or wrong way of doing it... 🙂
