I'm a Squire of Savings. My strategy with HBD in the fluctuating world of cryptocurrencies (Eng / Esp)
Since February 2021, a friend gave me the advice I needed to get started in the world of cryptocurrencies. I signed up for a virtual wallet where my cryptocurrency earnings would be deposited after completing tasks, faucets, and watching ads on websites. But then I wondered if there was also a game that would let me play and earn at the same time. I'm writing this post to participate in the Weekly Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge: Legends in the Making.
Desde febrero del año 2021 un amigo me dio los consejos necesarios para empezar en el mundo de las criptomonedas. Me registre en una billetera virtual donde se depositarían los ingresos de criptomonedas luego de completar algunas tareas, faucet y ver publicidad en páginas de internet. Pero luego me pregunte si tambien existía un juego que me permitiera jugar y ganar al mismo tiempo. Hago esta publicación para participar en el Weekly Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge: Legends in the Making.
I started earning income in various cryptocurrencies and at the same time I was looking for games that would also allow me to earn money. Finally, I found Splinterlands on the recommendation of @bulkathos. He explained to me that the cost to start this new project was $10 in cryptocurrency, and although the price seemed cheap, for me it was quite significant at the time. I decided to take the $10 from my virtual wallet, which had taken me months to gather, and bought the Spellbook at the end of May 2021. Thus began my origin in Splinterlands, and until now I have remained an active player for almost 4 continuous years.
Comence a tener ingresos en varias criptomonedas y al mismo tiempo estaba buscando juegos que me permitieran tambien ganar dinero. Finalmente encontre a Splinterlands por recomendación de @bulkathos. Él me explicó que el costo para comenzar en este nuevo proyecto era de 10$ en criptomonedas y aunque el precio pareciera económico, para mi era bastante significativo en esa época. Decidí tomar los 10$ de mi billetera virtual, que me habia costado meses reunirlo, y compre el Spellbook a finales de mayo de 2021. Así comienza mi origen en splinterlands y hasta ahora sigo como jugador activo duranta ya casi 4 años continuos.
En junio de ese año las criptomonedas tomaron gran protagonismo, hubo mucha inversión. Splinterlands vendió sorpresivamente todas sus tierras, cada una en 20$ y a los días siguientes todos los paquetes DICE, cada uno en 2$; los creadores solo tenian para vender mas cuentas ya que sus productos se habian agotado antes de lo planificado. Las cartas de los conjuntos Alpha, Beta y Untamed se revaloraron, cuentas inactivas volvieron al juego y por esa razón hay tantas cuentas nuevas creadas a partir de julio 2021. Splinterlands no era el único, otros juegos como Axie Infinity estaban entre los mas destacados con gran inversión y ganancia para los jugadores. Sin embargo en noviembre de ese mismo año el BTC bajo bruscamente su precio y todo lo relacionado empezó a perder su valor. Entonces entendi que yo no estaba preparado para un mercado tan turbulento, no era suficiente con saber jugar, tambien habia que tener conocimientos del mercado de las criptomonedas. Invertí dinero y tambien perdi una parte de este. Pero decidi no rendirme y continue jugando hasta descubrir que había pasado, en donde me había equivocado y obtener un aprendizaje para que no me volviera a ocurrir.
In June of that year, cryptocurrencies took center stage, with a lot of investment. Splinterlands unexpectedly sold out of all its lands, each for $20, and the following days, all DICE packs, each for $2. The creators only had to sell more accounts since their products had sold out earlier than planned. Cards from the Alpha, Beta, and Untamed sets were revalued, and inactive accounts returned to the game, which is why so many new accounts have been created since July 2021. Splinterlands wasn't the only one; other games like Axie Infinity were among the most prominent, with high investment and profits for players. However, in November of that same year, BTC's price dropped sharply, and everything related to it began to lose its value. Then I realized that I wasn't prepared for such a turbulent market; it wasn't enough to know how to play; you also had to have knowledge of the cryptocurrency market. I invested money and lost some of it. But I decided not to give up and continued playing until I discovered what had happened, where I had gone wrong, and learned something so that it wouldn't happen again.
The year 2022 arrived, and I dedicated myself to accumulating Chaos Legion cards and packs. Then, in 2023, I set out to collect as many Chaos Legion packs as possible until I had over 100 packs, thinking that when they ran out, their value could increase, just as had happened with the Untamed Packs in June 2021. But, again, I was wrong. After the CL Packs' sale period ended, their price dropped from $2.40 to more than half their value, and to avoid further losses, I decided to sell them all. At least I realized I wasn't the only one who had this failed strategy, and although it may seem strange, that gave me peace of mind and helped me reflect: Where did I go wrong?
In 2024, I decided to invest the money I earned from the packs in buying SPS. The SPS continued to rise in value, so I staked it. But surprisingly, SPS began to drop in price, and I couldn't do anything because I was staking. This caused me great disappointment. Again, others like me had experienced the same thing.
Llegó el año 2022 y me dedique a acumular cartas y packs de Chaos Legion. Luego en el año 2023 me propuse reunir todos los packs Chaos Legion posibles hasta sumar mas de 100 packs, pensando que cuando estos se agotaran podrian aumentar su valor, asi como ocurrio con los Packs Untamed en junio de 2021. Pero, nuevamente me equivoque, luego de culminar el periodo de venta de los Packs CL, bajaron su precio desde 2,40$ a mas de la mitad de su valor y para no seguir perdiendo decidi venderlos todos. Al menos comprendi que no fui el único que realizó esta estrategia fallida y aunque parezca extraño eso me dio tranquilidad y me sirvio para meditar ¿En qué falle?
En el año 2024 decidi invertir el dinero obtenido de los Packs en la compra de SPS. El SPS siguio subiendo su valor así que lo coloque en staking. Pero de manera sorpresiva, para mi, el SPS comenzo a bajar su precio y yo no podía hacer nada ya que estaba en staking. Esto me causo mucha decepción. Nuevamente, otros como yo les había ocurrido lo mismo.
Finalmente despues de tanto investigar encontre lo siguiente:
Predictibilidad:
Ciencia social: no pueden predecir con exactitud los resultados.
Ciencia exacta: Pueden predecir con facilidad el resultado de la investigación.
Datos:
Ciencia social: trabajan con variables impredecibles o incontrolables.
Ciencia exacta: trabajan en mayor medida con datos obtenidos en experimentos.
Ejemplos:
Ciencia social: sociología, antropología, economía.
Ciencia exacta: física, química, matemáticas, biología.
En conclusión, soy Biólogo, tengo una formación científica y es por esa razón que no logro y quizas no lograre comprender la fluctuación de las criptomonedas. Así que en enero del 2025 coloque casi todos mis activos en una moneda que fuera estable, lo que llaman una stablecoin. Compre 600 HBD y los coloque en staking y ahora casi todo lo que gano lo coloco alli. Me genera unos intereses mesuales alrededor de 7 HBD y por fin deje de perder; y al mismo tiempo apoyo los proyectos de HIVE invirtiendo en una de sus monedas.
Finally, after so much research, I found the following:
Predictability:
Social science: They cannot accurately predict the results.
Exact science: They can easily predict the outcome of the research.
Data:
Social science: They work with unpredictable or uncontrollable variables.
Exact science: They work mostly with data obtained in experiments.
Examples:
Social science: Sociology, anthropology, economics.
Exact science: Physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology.
In conclusion, I'm a biologist with a scientific background, and that's why I can't, and perhaps won't, understand the fluctuations of cryptocurrencies. So, in January 2025, I invested almost all of my assets in a stablecoin. I bought 600 HBD and staked them, and now I stake almost everything I earn there. It earns me around 7 HBD in monthly interest, and I've finally stopped losing. At the same time, I support HIVE projects by investing in one of their coins.
Have I learned anything from bad decisions? Now I understand that there are no good or bad decisions; everything depends on your knowledge and how quickly you act when the market is rising or falling. I prefer a balanced market because I don't have the time to check the daily movements of cryptocurrencies or global news that could affect them, which is why I decided to invest in HBD. I also earn 15% annual interest.
¿He aprendido algo de las malas deciciones? Ahora comprendo que no existen malas o buenas deciciones, todo va a depender de los conocimientos que tengas y de la rápidez en la que te muevas cuando el mercado este en subida o bajado. Yo prefiero un mercado equilibrado porque no tengo el tiempo para revisar el movimiento diario de las criptomonedas o las noticias a nivel mundial que la puedan afectar, por eso decidi invertir en HBD. Ademas, obtengo como beneficio un 15% de interes anual.
And now I'm starting to see the benefits. It turns out that PEAKD created a page in February of this year that awards a title to accounts that have invested a significant amount of HBD in staking, called Squire of Savings.
B/Squire of Savings
Created on February 13, 2025
You’ve taken your first noble step into the realm of finance! With 500-2000 HBD staked, you prove you’re ready to learn the art of saving. As a Squire of Savings, your journey has just begun – every great knight starts as a humble squire.
Y ahora comienzo a recibir mis frutos. Resulta que en PEAKD se creo una pagína en febrero de este año que otorga un título a las cuentas que tengan invertido una cantidad significativa de HBD en staking, llamado Squire of Savings.
B/Escudero de Ahorros
Creado el 13 de febrero de 2025
¡Has dado tu primer paso en el mundo de las finanzas! Con tener entre 500 y 2000 HBD apostados, demuestras que estás listo para aprender el arte del ahorro. Como Escudero del Ahorro, tu viaje acaba de comenzar: todo gran caballero empieza siendo un humilde escudero.
Ademas, como se puede ver en la publicación de @geekgirl, estoy en el ranking 619 de un total de 2.370, entre las cuentas de HIVE que mas han invirtiendo HBD staking en marzo de 2025.
https://peakd.com/hbd/@geekgirl/hbd-interest-payments-for-march-2025
Para mi fue una gran sorpresa ya que los tiempos coincidieron y no me esperaba que al decidir invertir HBD en staking al mismo momento (un mes despues) comenzaran a otorgar un título como premio a todos los inversores.
Also, as you can see in @geekgirl's post, I'm ranked 619th out of 2,370 among the HIVE accounts that have invested the most in HBD staking by March 2025.
https://peakd.com/hbd/@geekgirl/hbd-interest-payments-for-march-2025
It was a big surprise for me because the timing coincided, and I didn't expect that when I decided to invest in HBD staking at the same time (a month later), they would start awarding a title as a prize to all investors.
My recommendation is: if you like the game, buy Splinterlands products. If you have little money and are savvy with cryptocurrencies, then buy the products and stay up-to-date with daily market news. But if you don't have much money and aren't that savvy with crypto, then invest in HBD.
I hope this post helps increase your knowledge about careful cryptocurrency investing.
If you like my content, support me with your vote!
Mi recomendación es: si te gusta el juego compra los productos de splinterlands. Si tienes poco dinero y eres hábil con las criptomonedas, entonces compra los productos y mantente actualizado con las noticias diarias del mercado.

Obrigado por promover a comunidade Hive-BR em suas postagens.
Vamos seguir fortalecendo a Hive
I like using non hive assets to buy SPL assets as they are much more stable but since hive is low right now been buying hive with my land earnings hoping for that pump where i can sell most of it and keep the profit to power up and get at least 20k hive which is what i think i got in the fork lol which was freaken amazing since i bought steem at like .1 or something and then got hive for free and held it and sold a lot of it in the .5-above 1 dollar range as well as sold almost all my steem which was about the same. Wish i had bought a lot more steem lol I could have bought like 500K steem at the time and that would have been prob the best investment other than buying 500 BNB at 5 bucks or so lol.
Hi white-cloud-inc, I've seen that HIVE averages one rally per month. This could be a good opportunity for your strategy, taking advantage of the low price of this coin. Because I have little time to play, I don't have a chance to catch these opportunities.
ive been adding hive again and will eventually be setting up a witness node to as I want to get that money from those lol They seem to be pretty profitable. Just need to wait prob a year or so until i can buy the necessary hive to get the power needed. Also will be using my HP to undo downvotes from the auto downvoters and then make sure i have enough HP to go back and DV them just like they did to my old account for no reason lol. But mainly to make money and draw ppl into SPL since I have shares in the company and into hive as well and help new players fund there accounts with votes if they use my affiliate link so i can get credits for all the future activity they do which will fund my purchases along with curation as well.
Thanks for sharing! - @libertycrypto27
