While I was searching for some good posts for the @Ourpick curation project, I bumped up on the post by @behiver, where he tried to answer the question of Hive blockchain is a hobby or a business... I found that more as a personal question as I'm not sure that there is a straight answer, and as many times, there are no right or wrong answers... Inspired by that blog, I would like to ask you... What is HIVE for YOU? To begin a discussion, I would try to answer that question from my angle...

As a matter of fact, I have already begun my answer in the comment on that post... As the author gave two options, I tried to "fit myself" in one of those two, but without success... Why's that?
Is it a hobby?
As for the definition of hobby (an activity done regularly in one's leisure time for pleasure), maybe I could fit HIVE into that, but... I am doing HIVE for pleasure and I do enjoy content creation, engagement, live meetups, discussions, support, etc... But, it says in "leisure time" and if I would count all my time spent on HIVE as a leisure time, I would be a definition of a laziest person ever! 😂 Also, a hobby is usually done in free time, occasionally, and I'm on HIVE almost 24/7, so, I can't count it as a hobby!
Is it a business?
There are 2 definitions of a business... One says "a person's regular occupation, profession, or trade", which maybe I could fit HIVE... I do regularly hang out on HIVE, it is like my "profession" (a Hivian! sounds good 😃), but... The second definition ruins this theory... It says "commercial activity", which is partly true... You can earn tokens on HIVE with actions that you take here, so it can count as "commercial activity"... My personal problem with this is, that I do accumulate my HivePower, and I do earn tokens by creating content and engaging with others, participating in different L2 projects, etc., but on the other side, I very rarely take profit from it!
With the first theory, I was probably the laziest person hobbyist, and in the second theory, I'm the worst businessman on HIVE as I don't take profits for it... 😂
So, what is HIVE for me?
Maybe @behiver's reply to my comment can be acceptable as an answer... For him, HIVE is like a digital home!
I would go a step further... Just a few days before, we had the #HHHLive show where the special guest was @hallmann, and we were discussing Hive and The Kingdom... As I was at that place, I would say that HIVE is a digital Kingdom Without Limit, a meeting point for people who like to share, learn, and grow! It's like a big antheap where everyone is working for the benefit of everyone...
Or, even better... Hive is a big (bee)hive! There is no better definition than its own name! The place where bees are working, living, gathering, growing, interacting, taking care of each other... It is exactly that for me! The (starting) meeting point with other Hivians, before our journey together to the future!
Choo choo! All aboard!!!

Let's see the WorkerBee Pool numbers for this week...
This week we have mined 114 BEE tokens in total... Good job!
For the second week in a row, we have a new delegator! Welcome, @hindavi to the pool! Nice to have you here!
As usual, we got more delegations from old members... Thanks guys! Appreciate your support!
This POOL doesn't have fees and you get up to 20% MORE by delegating to it!
What about the bonus tokens?
I have to admit that I haven't paid attention to the LEO price movements lately, but when I checked it today to enter the values in my report sheet, I saw the huge price movement today! I mean, it is a "violent" day in the crypto world, but the LEO price lowest and highest price had almost 50% spread! What that could mean? There is not enough liquidity for the "needs of the market", which further means more volatile price action! That works in both directions, but with a nice big, fat, buy wall, it could mean upwards action! Will that happen or not, I don't know... What I do know is that I will give away some LEO tokens today as bonus tokens for the pool delegators!
There will be distributed 42 LEO tokens to the delegators of the pool as a bonus reward today!
As always, in the end, let's give the exact numbers for this week... 114 BEE tokens and 42 LEO tokens will be distributed as a bonus... The APR (without the bonus) was 8.712%, and when we added the bonus it went up to 10.399%!
I have calculated the ROI approximately with medium prices for all tokens at the moment of creating this post... So, those numbers are valid if you bought WB and sold BEE tokens at the middle HiveEngine price...
