Valueplan 2025 so far Part II The Full List

OK we went on about the rally car in Part 1 of my Valueplan posts. As I said in the Part 1 here , I will not be posting every month about this but taking a broader picture every 6 months instead. Why? Because

1. It takes up too much of my time
2. It turns me off Hive as a blockchain,
3. It annoys the shit out of me.
4. I get more post rewards posting about a succulent succulent chinese meal because all the big dogs are in on this. Woof Woof.

The good news is that Valueplan have their own website now so if you don't believe my figures then you can verify them over at that website which is handy for my credibility. Also they have user retention metrics. So if by some chance that someone on a mound is watching our beautiful (but very slow) rally car fly by them at 100 mph (well maybe 75mph) and they take out their phone to search for the Hive Blockchain. And by some small chance they realise it's not that Hive blockchain, it's the other Hive blockchain called hive blogs and then by some small chance they sign up to Hive on that mound ,and screenshot their private keys. Then try and copy and paste these into the login page for Hive blog while another rally car comes thundering past (at 120mph) . They finally get to the site and the world is their oyster. They take a picture of a ladybird on top of the mound. One with yellow speckles. Then go to post .

NO RESOURCES CREDITS

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. FUCK THIS SHITTTTTTTT.

Anyway these guys will show up in the metrics. You catch my drift. There's a lovely little section on the website where you can see who each payout is going to which is nice. The only issue over there is that some of the users are still unassigned because we probably do not know who the hell they are are where the hell they are living. Or they could be just new payments not assigned yet. Some funding isn't by country because they are global which probably means a number of the team are from different corners of the world. The good news about this year is that 30 recipients from last year fled for the hills so not to be tagged by yours truly showing them up for sponging off Hive. The bad news is the same amount replaced them and most are under names like b2b , upb2b, sb2b, hive this , hive that. You get the picture. I shall call myself BeeGee-b2b if I ever get my hands on that sweet sweet HBD to buy Hive merch. There were 68 recipients year to date. I mentioned the rally car guy getting funded $68,300.65 to finish last and bow out in the second stage of his last furore in my first post. Lad's Nike never gave up on Tiger when he had his mischief so lay off!!! It was actually more money in the end as an account called @bigfluffyclouds claimed for the rally car in Italy as well.Maybe a lovely video of it flying over a hill but its all the rally car pool. The lowest amount funded is 30 HBD to a humble recipient who probably claimed after printing a sheet of A4 I imagine!

I was disappointed to see that the GYM street Workout Gym brigade coming in 2nd place with $51,044.84 since January. I was under the impression that the whole Hive Community knew this one was a get rich quick scheme after many leaks in the camp from disgruntled athletes staying in squalor while the project leader was allegedly lapping it up in luxury. But yet they still received $51,044 so far between HBD and Hive allocation so nothing to see here. if you post regularly in their community , the GYM Street workout guys will let you attend an event and wear shinier gym gear so maybe they are helping with creating content on Hive. All this money is not really doing anything though is it. We have a few Hive gym rails. Big deal. Acts like this get paid to do marketing events in malls and on beaches. They ain't doing it for nothing. A friend of mine is from Venezuela and he said some people would kill their own granny for $100. No need to do that Jose. Just join Hive instead. They will give you $1000 for doing a few chin ups and granny will be still alive and well.
So behold the thing that takes the most time. The pesky table. If someone in Valueplan could give a few pound into a dev to make a better table interface it would be money better spent.

Valueplan Allocation January 2025 - July 2025

I'm mad that I must format a table with 68 entrants as I get disgruntled with every unknown wallet with a rep of 25 I have to look up but this has to be done. I shall grind it out. I will even separate the thousands with comma's because I'll do that for a $9 reward. Talentland comes in 3rd so far this year. I like what they did here creating a Hive name for their conference as I can't go after anyone for sponging on the Hive merch. Touche my friends touche. It looks like they are doing fewer conferences but going harder. More bracelets , more hats , more pens and a big ass banquet. Nothing promotes Hive like tucking into some duck spring rolls and smiling for the camera.

As per usual @blackheart1 is up in 4th there doing his hackathons and conferences in India. I see they even gave out a few stickers at one event. He even made a post this year in January 2025. Not around his projects but a write up about Hive in a newspaper which you will find here. You promised us more posts last year @blackheart1 but we are still waiting. If memory serves me correct @finfarm is his project as well and @finfarm-backup but I could be wrong on this.

We have @mcsamm in at number 5 with his Community Wells that seems to go up in price every year but it is all in the name of charity so who the fuck cares how much it costs!!! You are all going to hell for asking. Just call it 10 grand per borehole to make it an even number. The borehole success has pricked the ears of other eager entrepreneurs with @qmwallet getting in on the act in rain socked Venezuela. Rain delayed the @qmwallet borehole last year so they were behind. What will those poor people do????? Hive is becoming the borehole blockchain so we are all going to heaven lads. There's a Ghana borehole in at number 23 as well but not sure if its the same people. But stop asking questions or you will go to hell.

@spiritsurge is next with $26,560.00 which I presume most of this is for the creating and maintaining of the shiny new VP website.

At number 6 we have the really annoying Hive name @conf3ence. Ugghhhh that 3 makes me want to delve into this payment more. But 24,514.00 giving to them. Thank you very much.

Then we have @hivecreators who are the Valueplan arm for events and conference with 22,922.00. I can't be mad at them because I don't know who they are.

@finfarm is in 10th which I presume is our friend blackheart with an alt account. But it's getting the hits on Youtube so I can't complain too much about this.

In 11th we have @qmwallet which was anonymous for a while until they came back to us around the project in Venezuela. We have @lb2b in 12th . Again I hate the anonyminity of the name but it has to do with bike racing. Is it Victor, King13 or a new biker we have on our hands. Not sure. Biking is gathering pace and may be up there with the rally care and our penchant for digging boreholes soon enough. @buzzparty is number 13. They got funding last year but have more this year. Za Germans know how to party so I presume this was a great event.
@victorwallet of the Street Work Out Group branched out into biking and he is earning a nice living out of Hive at $16,495.00. But remember, Valueplans golden rule is they do not pay salaries. Golden rule. Anyone one that thinks otherwise is a dam fool. That bike does cost $16,495.00 in 6 months to run. Anyone saying different they need to take it up with me. The below is price money from the tour de France. Simon Yates a generational talent in cycling earned €15,530 from finishing 23rd in the Tour De France. Our Victor earned more .

I reckon someone should get in contact with the guy who finished 42nd and try and throw him a few resource credits so we can put Hive on his back next year.

Refunds

In the context of balance below are the refunds given which is nice to see.

These figures do not include the loans back and forth from alpha and blocktrades when the funds ran out.

Anyway that's it for another 6 months. As I said earlier you can verify the figures on the Valueplan website. In my opinion we have to tighten the marketing purse strings big time and spend some time looking at the legacy projects and ascertaining whether they are working or not. Are we looking in the right areas. Promoting Hive in poor countries is one thing but unfortunately they don't have the spondulex to throw money into a Hive wallet. Venezuela is taking 155,522 HBD this year. That's 22% of the total outlay on one country. It's absolutely ridiculous. The country ranks 145th our of 167th in the Legatum Prosperity Index. It's a basketcase of country and it's where the Hive blockchain has put its trust in. Hive is being hustled by an entire country.
I remember being in a nightclub once and a friend of mine was dancing away on the dance floor. Now this guy was normal and there wasn't too much to look at. No oil painting. The next thing I see, this beautiful girl made a move for him. She was stunning. She said a few words to my friends and they were gone. I was surprised to see my friend head out of the club with such a good looking lady on his arm. It led to a debate with my friends if it was legitimate. I walked out of the nightclub to make sure he was OK but I saw my friend who had left running past me with two big guys running after him. She was the lure to bring my friend out. As soon as he was out these two guys made him go to the bank machine and this was the hustle. They would rough him up a bit and take his money. This is what Venezuela is doing to the Hive Blockchain. It's just one big massive hustle. We are the trusting old man who sees the good in people but end up getting left behind.

Case Study

See below a case study down on a well known crypto site who decided to spend $25,000 on digital ads.

Binance is a leading crypto exchange trusted by millions of traders globally. To penetrate the APAC market, they ran targeted user acquisition campaigns to attract new traders and increase platform transaction volume. The main focus was to onboard high-value traders specifically from the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Eastern Asia regions.

Campaign Overview
The marketing agency running the campaign on behalf of Binance had a goal to drive new trader sign-ups on the Binance platform. With an Ad Spend of $25,000, they ran the campaign for 30 days, optimizing and closely observing it's performance.

Strategy
The campaign used these Blockchain-Ads targeting parameters based on wallet targeting and chain targeting focused on these specific segments:

Web3 Audience Targeting: Focused on high-value crypto traders, BTC holders, and BNB holders to ensure engagement with active crypto users.
Wallet Targeting: Included wallets with at least 10 transactions in the last 30 days and those interacting with other exchanges.
Portfolio Balance Targeting: Focused on wallets with over $10,000 in balance to attract high-liquidity traders.
Web2 Geo-Targeting: Specifically targeted users in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Eastern Asia regions to localize engagement and maximize relevance.
‍

Results
After 60 days of optimization, the campaign achieved remarkable results:

New Users: Acquired 4,600 new traders in the first 30 days
Transaction Volume: Generated $494,000+
Ad Spend: $25,000
Return on Ad Spend: 19.78x

$25,000 is all with a 19.78 return. Now those are metrics.
But hey, we would rather spend it on a conference with our heads in phones with Hive stickers in front of us until the mealtime of course.
