Just A Little HPUD Tale

HPUD Tale.png

Magandang Buhay!

February 1st...

It's a friend's birthday, but nope, we did not have any party or so. She decided that part of growing up (adulting) was skipping the celebrations that we used to have when we were much younger. She has her reasons and we respect them. No drama. No further whys. She is thrilled and so we are. End of the story.

It is also Hive Power Up Day here on the chain, hence, the time to power up or stake at least 10 HIVE. We like to do it. The practice is not forced. It's voluntary. We see staking HIVE as a way of saving that comes with certain benefits:

  • Growth in your Hive Power which consequently increases your curation rewards (when you support other authors through your upvotes);

  • You get more Resource Credits which are needed for any transaction here (commenting, posting, etc); and when you have more than enough, you can also delegate to others, especially new users.

  • You also earn APR (interest) on your Hive Power.

  • You get a Hivebuzz badge that signifies your participation.

And of course, you feel good too. Well, at least that's what it is for me whenever I add something to my stakes, knowing that I'm doing it for the long run.

Here's A Wee HPUD Story

Once upon a while in the middle of December 2021, a noob learned about the HPUD initiative for the first time. From that moment, she decided to participate in it every month. The adventure began in January of 2022 and she has not skipped nor missed a single month since. 2024 is her third year of doing so and she intends to keep the streak, no matter what.

So she did her thing today and had a Level 2 power-up (50 HIVE), increasing her total staked HIVE to 17,228 HP. Yes, growing it is a two-way process. With 50% of the content (and curation) rewards being powered up automatically on each payout time, her staking also helps, no matter the amount.

...The End😅

Kidding aside, it's just part of the goal - to keep building while time and circumstances allow it. And it sure feels nice to have consistently done that in the last 2 years, and hope it continues for a much longer time.

The thing is, the journey here is not always rosy or paved. It can be confusing at times and we wonder what to do next and such. We might even feel stupid at some point (well, maybe that was just me), but we can choose to keep on and learn along the way.

Anyhow, hope you are having a fantastic day. This is all from me and Happy HivePUD, everyone!

Happy Birthday to your friend, pag nagkaka edad talaga di na naiisip mag handa or what no. Treat it just like a normal day nalang and spend the money with needs and skips all the drama hahaha. And basta masaya pa rin kahit ganon ehe.

Anyways happy power up day! Sad di ako naka join, ongoing kasi pag power down ko, so if may power up ako, di rin ako makaka get ng badge no? Saduuuu huhu. And sana all sa 17k+ HP, me when ಥ‿ಥ haha

Thank you sis, on behalf of my BFF :)

And true, siguro ganon talaga. Adulting has its perks, lol!

Sorry to hear but you can do it next time :) I didn't know na pag ongoing ang power down, walang badge. Don't be sad, sis🥰

I think once we get into the power up we don't want to skip it and we love to do it as fun as we get different benefits too.

Happy HPUD farm girl, hope so you're enjoying your life ♥️

A two year streak is no small feat. Way to go being this consistent! I've missed three in total since Jan. '22 - 2024 shall be the first year I collect all the badges!

the journey here is not always rosy or paved. It can be confusing at times and we wonder what to do next and such. We might even feel stupid at some point (well, maybe that was just me), but we can choose to keep on and learn along the way.

Very relatable.. Being consistent and always taking small steps in a direction is the only thing I'm not doubting

I must say, you have been consistent with powering up for the last 2 years and here comes the journey of the third year. Building your Hp and seeing it grow kind of feel too good for an individual. More HP equals more Power on the chain. Good luck to you, FG.
