Hello Stackettes and Stackers!I cannot believe it is practically August. 2024 started strong, with a stacker meetup in Las Vegas. A great time was had by all those who attended. Personally... my year got yucky after that (IYKYK), but I hope the rest of you have had only happy times these past few months. I would also be remiss if I forgot to mention the MONSTER RAFFLE. @buggedout and @welshstacker were excellent hosts, and @bengy was an excellent winner! :)

Hello and Happy 2024 to all!I hope the first few weeks of the new year having been treating folks well. Things in our community are off to a strong start. @buggedout is keeping on top of the voting power of the @ssg-community account. @bitcoinman is spreading enthusiasm for Hive and our community through his off chain recruitment efforts. The last Secret Santa gifts FINALLY reached their intended recipients. And the silver gold stackers annual trip to Las Vegas is less than two months away! These are all signs of an auspicious 2024.

Greetings and Happy Holidays!Today's post is going to be a speedy one. I am super out of the blockchain loop as I have been deep in the midst of heavy family stuff. However, I wanted to pop in for a pre-holiday update. Membership

Hello Stackers!Things and StuffOnce again it has been many moons since we've convened here. :) Some fun appears to have been had in the interim. First off, we had our FIRST MONSTER RAFFLE since migrating the community to Hive. Special thanks to @buggedout for organizing everything. His attention to detail and dedication to fairness/transparency made the event a smashing success. Thanks also to the 21 individuals who donated a total of 48 ounces of silver to the event. Your generosity is noticed and appreciated. In case you missed it, @fat-elvis was the BIG winner on the day. With 4 or 5 ticket draws in his favor, Fat-E went home with 13 ounces of silver! (I still have to mail him one of his prizes).

Greetings Stackers!I have a few things bouncing around in my brain today. Where to begin?I make this cake every year.Back to Canada... did you see this post from @fat-elvis? Looks like there is talk of shenanigans in Vancouver, BC in September. Being not too far from the border myself, I am already looking at room options. Fingers crossed the stars align.

Howdy Friends!It's the end of May, which means things are heating up for those of us in the northern hemisphere. I know I am excited for long, warm days and all the fun summer holds. Sorry about the chilly nights ahead for you folks south of the equator. :)
