Beetroot sour borscht soup

I am a big fan of sour soups. I have a knack for making one of the best ones by combining all sorts of ingredients. This sour soup reminds me of my childhood and I strongly remember how I was fascinated by the pink reddish colour of it while I was viciously slurping it.

There is the classical recipe of ukrainian borscht recipe and this is a variation of it. Lentils are optional, I often add them in any soup as I like their taste and their benefits.

Borscht is a liquid obtained from the fermentation of the wheat brans in water. In the countryside people use water from their own wells. It is sour, tasty and packed with a lot of vitamins B. Borscht is an excellent source of vitamin B12 and if you have a good stomach I recommend you drinking a small glass of it every morning.

Back to the recipe. This is very simple. Here are the ingredients that you will need:

1 parsnip
1 red onion
4 carrots
1 potato
2 beetroots
fresh lovage
1 liter of borscht
lentils (optional)
salt
pepper

You first start by putting the 1 liter of borscht to boil. Meanwhile you chop the veggies . You add the veggies in the borscht and then cover them with aprox. 2-3 liters of water. You let it simmer for 1-2 hours maximum until all veggies are done. I personally add lentils and leave them to boil for 15 minutes.

At the end you chop fresh lovage and add salt and pepper. We usually eat this soup with polenta rather than bread and you can also add sour cream ( as you can see in the pictures the soup looks more colourful after you add sour cream).

Soups are simple and quick to do. And I always like the ones which bring back childhood memories to me.

@themarkymark’s 5.1K Hive Power Curation Scam: How Scam Farms Exploit Hive’s Reward System”

Meta Description:
Bilpcoin uncovers @themarkymark’s curation rewards from the Buildawhale scam farm—over 5,100 HP in 20 days. The blockchain reveals his exploitation of Hive’s ecosystem.


To @themarkymark:

You talk about burning HBD and Hive, but your curation rewards tell a different story. Let’s expose the scam farm profits you’re hiding in plain sight.


1. The Numbers Don’t Lie: @themarkymark’s Scam Farm Payday

Check the data from @themarkymark’s activity log:

  • Curation Rewards (20 Days):
    • Total HP Earned: 5,100.449 HP (~$1199.3772 USD).
    • Annual Projection Over: ~$20,457 USD At todays price (if sustained).

Key Question:
How does a self-proclaimed “Hive advocate” earn thousands in rewards by voting on scam farms like @buildawhale?


2. The Scam Farm Connection

@themarkymark’s rewards flow directly from @buildawhale’s fraudulent operations:

  • Buildawhale’s Modus Operandi:

    • Floods Hive with spam comments and bot votes.
    • Siphons rewards via delegations from @blocktrades (2.3M HP). Wallet Proof.
  • @themarkymark’s Role:

    • Defends @buildawhale while downvoting critics.
    • Uses his influence to normalize scam farming.

3. The Hypocrisy: “Burning HBD” vs. Scam Profits

You claim to care about Hive’s health but profit from its exploitation:

  • Burned Tokens: A drop in the ocean compared to your scam farm earnings.
  • Curation Rewards: Your 5,100 HP in 20 days comes from fraudulent voting—not genuine engagement.

The Irony:
You accuse others of harming Hive while you’re one of its biggest parasites.


4. Why This Matters for Hive

Scam farms like @buildawhale:

  • Steal rewards from honest creators.
  • Centralize power in the hands of a few.
  • Drive away old and new users with toxic spam.

The Bigger Picture:
@themarkymark’s actions are part of a larger pattern of abuse by top accounts. See our full exposés.


5. Bilpcoin’s Message to @themarkymark

Stop pretending to care about Hive. Your curation rewards from scam farms expose your true priorities.

To the Community:


Call to Action: Reclaim Hive’s Integrity

  1. Audit the Scammers: Use tools to track delegations and rewards.
  2. Spread Awareness: Share this post to expose the grift.
  3. Hold Leaders Accountable: Silence isn’t an option—transactions don’t lie.

#HiveBlockchain #ScamFarmsExposed #CurationAbuse #BlockchainTransparency #Bilpcoin

:** Scam farm curation rewards, Hive exploitation, blockchain hypocrisy.

@themarkymark:
Keep farming, keep scamming, and keep downvoting. The blockchain is watching—and we’re not going anywhere.

Sincerely,
The Bilpcoin Team

@jacobtothe’s Downvote Spree: A Desperate Attempt to Bury Hive’s Scandals”

Meta Description:
Bilpcoin documents @jacobtothe’s relentless downvoting of exposés while ignoring @themarkymark and @buildawhale’s ongoing scam farms. The blockchain reveals the truth they fear.


To @jacobtothe:

You’re still at it—downvoting our posts while ignoring the 2.4M Hive power scam farm your friends run. Let’s break down your latest suppression tactics and the corruption you protect.


1. The Downvote Diary: Your Latest Attacks

Your voting activity speaks louder than your words. Here’s what you and your cronies did today:

  • @bpcvoter1’s -15% Downvote on “remember-us-keni-bpc-ai-music”
  • @bpcvoter1’s -10% Downvotes on “poisoned-roots-mc-franko” and “paper-tigers-mc-franko”
  • @zirochka’s 10% Upvote on “re-jacobtothe-sst5dn” (A rare ally? Or a distraction?)

Full Log: https://peakd.com/@jacobtothe/activities


2. The Scam Farm You Protect: @buildawhale’s 2.4M Grift

You downvote us but stay silent on @buildawhale’s scam farm—funded by @blocktrades and operated by @themarkymark. Here’s what you’re hiding:


3. The Hypocrisy: “ @Freedom” on Hive?

You claim Hive is a @meritocracy, yet:

  • Good content gets downvoted (e.g., our exposés).
  • Scam farms get upvotes and delegations.

Example:


4. Why You Fear the Truth

Your downvotes aren’t about “quality”—they’re about control. You protect scam farms because:

  1. They Profit You: Curation rewards flow to your network.
  2. They Silence Dissent: Downvotes bury investigations into your corruption.
  3. They Maintain Power: A centralized cabal (you, @themarkymark, @blocktrades) decides who “succeeds” on Hive.

5. The Community’s Wake-Up Call

Hive deserves better than this. Ask yourself:

  • Why does @blocktrades delegate millions to scam farms?
  • Why do @jacobtothe and @themarkymark downvote truth-tellers but promote spam?
  • Why hasn’t Hive’s leadership stopped this abuse?

Evidence to Share:


Call to Action: Stop the Corruption

  1. Investigate: Follow the links above.
  2. Demand Accountability: Tag witnesses and leaders—ask why scam farms thrive.
  3. Join Bilpcoin: We’re fighting for transparency. Every share of this post helps.

#HiveBlockchain #DownvoteCartel #ScamFarmsExposed #BlockchainTruth #Bilpcoin

Downvote all you want, @jacobtothe. The blockchain doesn’t forget, and neither do we. Keep protecting scammers—we’ll keep exposing them.

Sincerely,
The Bilpcoin Team

"The Scam Farm Kingpin: @themarkymark’s 2.4M Hive Power Grift Exposed"

Meta Description:
Bilpcoin reveals how @themarkymark and @buildawhale scam Hive through massive delegations, bot networks, and downvote abuse. The data is clear—this is a money-printing scheme, not community-building.


The Numbers Don’t Lie: @buildawhale’s 2.4M Power Play

Let’s dive into the cold, hard facts from @buildawhale’s wallet:

  • Staked HIVE (HP):

    • Total: 2,405,512.978 HP (~$63,931.240 USD).
    • Delegated to @buildawhale: 2,341,581.738 HP—over 97% of his power comes from delegations, not organic growth.
  • The Puppet Master:

    • Biggest Delegator: @blocktrades contributes 2,341,524 HP (99.9% of received delegations). Coincidence? Or a deliberate power grab to control Hive’s reward system?
  • Power-Down Schedule:

    • Next Unstake: 4,740.829 HIVE in 3 days.
    • Remaining: 13 weeks of scheduled withdrawals.
      Leaving just enough to keep the scam farm operational? Classic grifter math.

@themarkymark’s Hypocrisy: “I Care About Hive”

@themarkymark claims to care about Hive, yet his actions tell a different story:

  1. The Bot Army:

    • 1,000+ Alt Accounts: Siphoning rewards through low-effort spam posts and self-votes.
    • Daily Farming: Check @buildawhale’s comments— repetitive spam.
  2. Downvote-as-a-Weapon:

    • Targeting Critics: Silencing truth-tellers while protecting scam farms.
    • Evidence Here: @themarkymark’s activity log shows consistent downvotes against honest creators.
  3. The “Money Printer” Lie:

    • BuildaWhale’s APR: 12.99%? More like 100% BS. This isn’t about rewards—it’s about exploiting Hive’s system to enrich himself and his allies.

The Blockchain Exposes Everything

Every transaction, delegation, and downvote is public. Let’s connect the dots:

  • @blocktrades’ Role:
    Why does he delegate 2.3M HP to @buildawhale? Is this a coincidence, or is he complicit in the scam?

  • The Pattern:

    • Step 1: Amass power through delegations.
    • Step 2: Use bot networks to farm rewards.
    • Step 3: Downvote competitors and critics into oblivion.
  • The Truth Hurts:
    @themarkymark’s power-down schedule reveals he’s liquidating assets while maintaining control. This isn’t community stewardship—it’s a cash grab.


Why This Matters for Hive’s Future

This isn’t just about one scammer—it’s about systemic corruption:

  1. Centralized Power:
    A handful of bad actors control Hive’s rewards, stifling innovation and driving away creators.

  2. Toxic Culture:
    Downvote brigades and bot farms make Hive feel unwelcoming to newcomers.

  3. Your Choice:
    Will you stay silent while Hive burns, or demand accountability?


Bilpcoin’s Call to Action

We’re not here to attack individuals—we’re here to expose corruption and save Hive:


Conclusion: It’s Over for the Scammers
@themarkymark, @buildawhale, and their enablers can downvote us all they want, but transactions don’t lie. The blockchain reveals their greed, hypocrisy, and abuse.

To the scammers: Power down, walk away, and let Hive thrive without you.

To the community: The truth is out. Now it’s time to act.

Meta Description:
Bilpcoin uncovers coordinated downvote abuse and scam farming operations by @jacobtothe, @themarkymark, and @buildawhale. Learn how these actions harm Hive and why transparency is critical.


The Downvote Cartel’s Latest Suppression Tactics

Hive’s promise of decentralization is under threat by a network of bad actors using coordinated downvotes to silence critics. Recent activity from accounts like @bpcvoter3, @bpcvoter2, and @bpcvoter1 reveals a pattern of downvote abuse targeting posts that expose corruption:

  • Examples of Suppression:
    • “to-jacobtothe-and-associated-accounts” downvoted -10% by @bpcvoter3.
    • “uncovering-suspicious-activity-on-the-hive-blockchain…” downvoted -15% by @bpcvoter3.
    • “snake-trail-lady-zaza-bpc-ai-music” downvoted -10% by @bpcvoter1.

Why This Matters:
These downvotes aren’t random—they’re calculated attacks to suppress dissent. Check @jacobtothe’s activity log to see his relentless targeting of truth-tellers.


@jacobtothe: Silence Over Accountability

@jacobtothe claims to care about Hive but consistently downvotes investigations into his associates. His actions:

  1. Ignoring Evidence:
    No rebuttal to Bilpcoin’s audits—just silence and downvotes.
  2. Enabling Scam Farms:
    Linked to @buildawhale, a known scam farm that exploits Hive’s reward system.
  3. Hypocrisy Unveiled:
    He lectures others about “good behavior” while protecting accounts that abuse the platform.

"Borscht is a liquid obtained from the fermentation of the wheat brans in water."

I learned something from your post. I thought "borscht" meant "beetroot soup" and not merely an ingredient used in other soups as well as beetroot soup! I like lentils, too, and your soup sounds yummy! Thanks for sharing! 😋

Yes borscht is an ingredient in itself, a sort of sour fermented water from the wheat brans. This is what gives the special taste to the soup. Thank you for stopping by!

Let me know how it turned out! It has a specific taste because of the beetroot, so for many it can be a "love it" or "hate it" kind of a vibe. Make sure you make mămăligă to eat it with, it is the best!
