Hi Raquel, I’ve tried to combine and summarize a lot of our thinking here to help guide you….let us know if questions come up.

Bambu Atitlan: As Christopher has probably mentioned, we love the landscaping at Bambu house in Santiago Atitlan, both the entrance walk in and the lush gardens between and around the patio and the lake that include texture, structure, height variation, colors, flowers. We don’t know if they ever work on separating plants for sale, but it would be worth a trip over there to for a walk around.  I believe I recall it’s the owner who is the garden expert there.
https://bambuatitlan.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Tarifario-2024.pdf

Compost: We think there should be one compost area in the top section of the property near or around where all the bamboo has been processed. 

Mulch: We would like to use mulch in our planting areas where possible to help with soil fertility and water retention. The mulch/compost area to the lower left can be moved up for pathways, plant mulch or moved up to the back compost pile.

Kitchen Garden/Zone 1: Things we like include rosemary, basil, chipilin, mint. There used to be more lavender and rosemary on the property and perhaps with our new watering system we can now support them.

Seeds: The seeds we have on site are, milkweed, calico flower (the vine with giant flowers over the greenhouse), and nispero. Is it possible to grow nispero as a pruned orchard tree? I think I have only seen them in a spreading natural form.

Walking Pathway: We’re thinking that a mulched walking path might wind around from the hammock area (new porch) to along the top of the terrace (above existing mulch pile on lower left) and join path to lower house and kitchen. The middle area we can perhaps maintain as a grassy area. The walking pathway may need to be built up a bit as we don’t want it to become a compacted puddle during rainy season, we’re prefer the rain stay and move toward the plants.

Flowers: The area where the lower left compost currently is, can be all planted with flowers and grasses.

Ground cover: There is a ground cover with a little yellow flower — it’s a legume — that we really like. It’s still growing in the upper area and a bit behind the bedroom. We’d like to get that more established again behind the bedroom and next to the upper side of the bathroom. It used to be lush.

Upper area: We’re thinking this will ultimately be a sort of agro forestry area or agro orchard since that’s what we have. Eventually we can plant tree tomato, tomatoes or other greens and veggies in and around the fruit trees.

Eating: We love the idea of eating from the landscape, whether it’s for human consumption or supporting caterpillars, butterflies, hummingbirds and birds. So any plants that support these goals are welcome.

Fertilizer on site: The Home Biogas unit can producer fertilizer. If you feed the unit kitchen compost (only one citrus per day and no big seeds), it makes cooking gas and “burps” liquid. If you put a bucket under the liquid end (lake side) you can catch this. But we usually don’t have it there due to mosquitoes.
https://landing.homebiogas.com/bio-fertilizer/
I think the manual has a section on using and diluting the fertilizer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Lfpl81CvsKxIBDQm0YeXiVQIpknu_eUv/view?usp=sharing 

Mound behind bedroom: Eventually this mounded swale-like area should become a bit more like the little terrace  between it and the wall. If we have any leftover stone (laja), maybe we can create a similar looking terrace effect? This soil came out of where we buried the compost toilet material (to the left of the bathroom), so we may need to replace some of the soil to that spot as it subsides over time.

View to Lake: As we mentioned, keeping the view to the lake open is an important feature of the property. 

I’ll make a quick sketch of a few plants to look out for and upload shortly...

I added a very poor sketch, but it shows where I planted the pacaya palms, the two naranjia, rue, flowering tobacco, lantana, and the butterfly ginger. The palms are very small and on the side are under some existing plants, so may be hard to see. These things don't have to stay where they are, I was mainly trying to save some things and/or get them out of the way of construction work. The pacaya palm that is planted between the raspberries and the fence is in that location specifically so that as it grows it becomes a natural visual privacy barrier between the upper and lower houses. 

Volunteer exchange:

1. Draw roadmap plans based on the blog posting
2. Find plants look in IMAP and Pana?
3. Add seed starters to greenhouse and teach Marina to care for them (plant 3 seeds and start fig starters)
4. Plan intensive work week for Sep 29th 
5. Test watering system

Random other tasks:

We should put skinny bamboo sticks next to all plants so nobody cuts them down
Water at night or early morning

Fund Concept: Tokenized Asset management fund targeting HIVE Power (staked HIVE tokens) with locked 7% annual returns to depositors, aiming to generate 12%+ returns through blockchain-native revenue streams, partnership investments and strategic value-adding operations.

Management Advantage: Proven Ecosystem Leadership
Fund manager brings established credibility and deep network access within HIVE's decentralized ecosystem as an experienced open source project manager with:

• Existing partnerships with key HIVE community leaders and project developers
• Proven track record managing decentralized projects and stakeholder relationships
• Insider knowledge of ecosystem dynamics, governance patterns, and emerging opportunities
• Established reputation that accelerates partnership development and deal flow
   

The Business Model

The fund engages a compelling network-effect opportunity in the HIVE blockchain ecosystem. By accumulating large HIVE Power stake, we generate multiple revenue streams:

• Targeting 8%+ APR from content curation rewards
• 3%+ chain level APR
• Resource Credit monetization through delegation to growing dApps and communities
• Capital appreciation from ecosystem growth
• Partner Growth from strategic support and ecosystem participation
• This anticipates the creation of a ~5% spread above depositor returns, plus capital gains upside from ecosystem growth and partnership exposure.

Strategic Partnership Ecosystem
The fund operates as the hub of an integrated venture network, supporting allied projects entering onto HIVE but also leveraging the manager's existing relationships and ecosystem credibility:

Revenue-Generating Partnerships Already Identified & Engaged:

• Mithril Marketing: Leverages fund's influence for B2B marketing campaigns
• HIVE Business Development: Using ecosystem support and professional tools for enterprise client acquisition
• Pipeline Partnerships: Manager's deep ecosystem connections provide immediate access to additional high-value synergies and partnership opportunities with established HIVE projects and community leaders.

Other Current Partners

• DeepWeb3Secrets Podcast: Deep dives into open source development projects, leaders, events and philosophy.
• HIVESBI - Individual account based curation
• Open Mithril open source development project and team.

Synergy Value-creation:

Each partner operates as an independent project - engaging their own user or customer base, while all benefit from the Synergy Fund's ecosystem credibility and governance influence. Several pre-existing relationships reduce partnership development risk.

Competitive Advantages

• Management Expertise: Proven open source project management experience with existing HIVE ecosystem relationships
• Network Effects: Large stake + established credibility creates immediate governance influence
• Partnership Velocity: Pre-existing relationships eliminate business development friction
• Multiple Revenue Streams: Diversified income reduces single-point-of-failure risk
• Regulatory Clarity: Traditional fund structure with transparent blockchain operations
• Established Ecosystem: HIVE's 1.2M+ users and mature dApp environment provide stability
   

Financial Projections

• Target Fund Size: $10M in deposits over 3 years
• Investor Returns: 7% fixed annual returns
• Fund Earnings: 12%+ from curation and resource credits. Exposure to partnerships and capital appreciation
• Net Margin: ~5% operational management spread plus capital gains
• Deposit Minimum: $50,000
• Lock-up Terms: 2 years with quarterly liquidity windows

Mithril Marketing is operational and ready to begin campaigns. After more than a month of scoping, development and relationship building, we've secured our first paying B2B client and are now announcing to the HIVE community that blockchain-incentivized marketing roadmap of tasks will begin rolling out soon.

This is your opportunity to participate in the world's first blockchain-native B2B marketing service that transforms community skills into crypto rewards while injecting external capital into the HIVE ecosystem.

What Mithril Marketing Is

We orchestrate blockchain-incentivized micro-tasks that aggregate into comprehensive B2B marketing campaigns for paying SaaS clients. Our approach hopes to leverage existing HIVE infrastructure and established communities like @hive-echo, POSH, hivetasks, and @thedistriator to execute complex marketing objectives through distributed, incentivized collaboration.

For Hivers/Hivians: Earn cryptocurrency rewards for completing marketing tasks such as content creation, social traction, lead generation, brand awareness, and engagement campaigns that deliver real business value to our clients.

For HIVE: We're "net positive" for HIVE by injecting external client payments while strengthening blockchain utility, token economics, and community engagement.

How We Hope This Benefits HIVE Community Contributors

1. Meaningful Crypto Rewards
Unlike typical micro-tasks, our campaigns offer substantial rewards because clients pay premium rates for measurable B2B marketing outcomes - and thinking is required! Your skills generate real business value along a value-chain, which translates to better compensation for better outcomes.

2. Skill Development Opportunities
Participate in the open-building of professional-grade marketing campaigns that could also build your portfolio in content creation, lead generation, social media strategy, and business development — skills valuable both in crypto and traditional markets.

3. Flexible Participation
Please only choose tasks that match your interests, skills and availability. Whether you're a writer, designer, researcher, or community builder, there will be opportunities that fit your strengths.

4. Transparent Performance Tracking
All activities and rewards are recorded on-chain, providing clear visibility into your contributions and earnings while building your reputation within the ecosystem.

Why This Works

• Proven Infrastructure: HIVE's existing incentivization mechanisms and micro-task communities provide the foundation for coordinated marketing campaigns without requiring new platforms or learning curves.
• Quality Assurance: We provide professional oversight, strategic coordination, and business translation to ensure deliverables meet enterprise client standards while maintaining the community's collaborative spirit.
• Performance-Based Rewards: Community members earn rewards only upon successful completion of measurable tasks, naturally aligning incentives for quality delivery.
• Global Talent Pool: Our clients benefit from HIVE's internationally distributed community of skilled contributors, while community members access opportunities typically reserved for traditional marketing agencies.

Our First Campaign is Ready

Market Validation: We have secured a paying B2B SaaS client willing to experiment and iterate with blockchain-native marketing execution.

We will begin constructing the narrative on-chain so contributors can look forward to working with us in crafting and executing the marketing plan as we get to know more about the client and their service.

The Bigger Picture

Mithril Marketing wants to prove that blockchain technology can solve real B2B problems while creating sustainable value for community contributors. We're pioneering a model where:

Enterprise clients get better marketing results at competitive costs with full transparency
Community members earn cryptocurrency for meaningful, skill-building work
The HIVE ecosystem benefits from external capital injection and increased utility
The blockchain space demonstrates practical, profitable use cases beyond speculation
 

Campaign Timeline:

Client Narrative Construction begins

• Initial task rollouts begin in two weeks
• Community feedback and iteration cycles built into early campaigns
• Scaling based on community response and client satisfaction

Join the Movement

This isn't just another crypto project—it's proof that blockchain technology can create real economic value while strengthening decentralized communities. Mithril Marketing demonstrates that HIVE's "incentivize anything" capability can solve traditional business problems profitably.

The future of marketing is blockchain-native, community-driven, and transparently rewarded. Mithril Marketing is making it happen — starting now.
