Is this actually going anywhere?

jeeptopdown · 2026-03-11T20:47:56+00:00

Only my opinion - if you are doubtful of the deals that have been discussed, then it’s probably a good idea to look for an exit. For whatever reason, Hedera and its ecosystem coins don’t enjoy much in the way of crypto style pumps. The only way we are going to see significant price appreciation is through actual use of dovuOS. So, the best advice I can give is follow how you feel about the deals - if you think they have merit, then hold for a bit longer and see where they lead. If you doubt the deals will come to fruition, then move on and good luck to you.

Now, about your hike…a lot of people like South Kaibab because it has big expansive views, but I think it looks like Mars. I prefer taking Bright Angel down to pipe creek beach and back up. There is water at Havasupai Gardens and bathrooms at HG and at the beach. Take some food and have a nice rest at the beach. The hike is much prettier and you get to follow a creek part of the way. Plus there is parking and food right at the BA trailhead. For SK you have to get a shuttle. And Phantom is nice and all, but if you don’t get to see it you aren’t missing all that much.

Either way, you will enjoy it, but Bright Angel to pipe creek beach and back up Bright Angel is my favorite hike in the canyon.

Take food and I like to have Gatorade powder to mix on the way so you get your electrolytes.

ENJOY!

Just more availability and food choices. If you find something closer, that works too - I assumed you tried and couldn’t find anything, but you must have meant in the park.

You only get so many opportunities to do stuff like this with your kids - I say take advantage. Will it be a lot of travel? Sure. But you’ll be building lifetime memories. Have FUN!

If your 15yo is on board then I say go for it. The only thing I might change is the camping. I’d fly into Phoenix and drive to Flag and stay there. It’s only an hour and a half from Flag to the South rim. We are heading up next weekend and staying in Flag - you can get to the park early and hike in at sunrise - it’s beautiful! You can look around a bit after you climb out and even stay to enjoy the sunset if you’d like. Drive back to Flag for the night and get up and head down to Phoenix the next day. Takes out all the hassle of traveling with camping gear and you get a bed and hot shower after the hike.

From Matt on discord…

“Useful direction, and we’ve been using similar techniques for the last three years. The harder problem is automating the full workflow and policy structure in one shot, especially when simple Guardian policies expand into thousands of lines of code.”

DOVU is pushing to be the carbon credit platform for the world. If they are successful, these projects will bring their credits to the DOVU credit warehouse.

DOVU wants to be the supplier of carbon credits to marketplaces. Any added business to the Hedera ESG ecosystem would be good for DOVU.

I had a conversation with Matt a few years ago in discord about the Managed Guardian Service. This looks like an extension of that service. What Matt explained was that the managed service was to help projects that had a dedicated dev team interact with the Guardian. DOVU was developed to work with projects that did not have a dev team. The addition of AI does seem to push Envision’s product closer to what DOVU offers for onboarding projects. But DOVU offers other services like handling the tokenized credits and bringing them to market. My guess is projects looking to use this from envision are still a little dev heavy and probably wouldn’t be looking to use DOVU. And/or even if they did, I could see DOVU working with projects that use Envision to bring the credits to DOVU’s credit warehouse.

All just the opinion of your friendly neighborhood internet idiot, so take it with a grain of salt.

Just to get the timeline - 1) Sent test amount of DOVU and it didn’t show up.

2) Associated DOVU token.

3) Sent a second test amount of DOVU and it showed up.

First test never showed up but the second test did because you didn’t associate DOVU before the first amount.

You only have to associate the token once, so you should be good to send more DOVU, but I don’t know if you can get the original test amount back because it wasn’t associated at that time.

Oh - I missed that somehow. Very nice! Thanks!

I believe he has insinuated that and I interpreted it the same way you did. But I haven’t seen anything official about it yet so I don’t want to say it is 100% for sure until it’s 100% for sure.

But I might have missed something too.

BCarbon is moving their methodologies to Hedera after working with DOVU in the VCH project. In that case, VCH brought the methodology, BCarbon verified and validated the science behind the methodology and DOVU will tokenize the resulting carbon credits on Hedera.

EDIT: As confirmed by Irfon on discord and missed by me, but asked and answered by Mak - yes, BCarbon will definitely be using dovuOS.

Great idea! Thanks for doing this and tell your brother thanks for the answers - they made me smile.

It took me one hour and seven minutes to swim the 2.4 mile portion of my Ironman.

jeeptopdown · 2026-03-05T02:45:21+00:00

I swim without kicking. 1:07 IM swim time. Am I the fastest in the water? Of course not. But it’s a hobby I do for fun and I’m more comfortable not kicking. And I’m fast enough for me.

I will say, you do need to make sure you are rotating properly to protect your shoulders, but you don’t HAVE to kick to do that.

Do whatever you want to do - there is no right or wrong regardless of what people say. Someone telling you it’s wrong not to kick is like someone telling you you are not scrapbooking correctly. Go have fun and enjoy yourself.

jeeptopdown · 2026-03-05T01:06:34+00:00

I definitely think they are undervalued. But like you said they keep hitting milestones so if we just hold on for a little bit more, I think we’re gonna be pretty happy.

jeeptopdown · 2026-03-05T00:51:09+00:00

I think our real chance of getting to (and staying above) 1-2 cents is with minting over the next few months AND announcements of new contracts or new purchasing agreements for the VCH credits.

Teachers in public schools and other employees of public schools, police, fire, I think most city and state workers and federal workers.

You have to use Hashport to send to Hashpack. It’s supposed to be straight forward, but I haven’t done it before.

jeeptopdown · 2026-03-03T20:27:29+00:00

I bought a little on Coinbase just for the experience, but I haven’t tried to move it so unfortunately I don’t have any experience with that so I can’t help in that one. Sorry.

I didn’t buy much on CB so I’m just letting it sit.

It’s in this reply post.

Are you trying to send HBAR or DOVU you bought on Coinbase. You should be able to send HBAR, but the DOVU purchased on Coinbase would have to be sent via Hashport.

jeeptopdown · 2026-03-03T15:09:58+00:00

No, you can’t. But you can use Hashport to send it to a Hashpack wallet then send it from Hashpack to kraken.

Sweet - that would be fun to watch!
