Happy Independence Day to all of you in the USA! The 4th of July is a holiday in the United States celebrating the ratification of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. There are plenty of fun activities in communities all around the country and at the end of the day there are usually fireworks displays. If you are doing your own fireworks at home please be safe and don't lose any eyes or fingers!

For those interested in competitive eating every year there is the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on Coney Island, New York. Every July 4th contestants try to eat the most hot dogs possible in ten minutes. The record for men was set by Joey Chestnut eating 62 hot dogs in 2023 and for women set by Miki Sudo 39.5 hot dogs also in 2023. Personally I think they're insane to do it, but everyone needs a hobby!

I plan to spend most of the day relaxing and watch some fireworks in the evening. There is a display every year close to where I live so I don't even have to leave home to enjoy it!

Once again the Silver and Gold Stackers are having a Monster Raffle! No, you can't actually win monsters, but this year you can win 29 ounces of silver and a gold nugget. Anyone can buy tickets and enter and if you're lucky win one or more of the prizes. Tickets cost 4 Hive a piece or 30 PRECIOUS tokens if you are holding any. It's always a lot of fun and helps the #silvergoldstackers community to raise funds. There are some really nice prizes donated by community members that are up for grabs this time around! For more information on the raffle and prizes please see the post by @buggedout :

Right now for those who hold 200 or more tokens staked can receive curation once a day on your posts. In the next couple of days we expect the dividends and the tipping bot to go live.

Nothing at all. Thunderstorms are expected this evening, but I am not a big fireworks fan.

That would be a fun trip, I'm sure you'll get a chance on of these days. It would help if the crypto prices weren't so low. Hopefully things will rebound soon!

We were watching the hot dog eating contest at a bar today. It was a bit delayed, but just not the same without Joey there.

I agree, that banning Joey thing was pretty stupid. I heard he went to Fort Bliss in El Paso for a contest against some military guys.

Happy Independence Day! I heard about protests too in the news. Life goes on.

And yes I reached the 200 DUO tokens too Yay! Now that hive price is low a lot of milestone are easier to achieve, I would be buying the hive and then hive power up to 3K and more. Let's see. Enjoy the weekend.

Thanks! That's awesome you hit 200, now you get curation and I believe dividends as well after the first month of building up HP, we're at 2500 right now which isn't too bad for less than a week.

Hive is really cheap and clinging to $0.17 for now, it may test $0.15 at some point but with any luck it won't! It's great time to power up right now!
