HIVE Power Up Day Is Coming - Are You Ready?

avatar

The phenom that is @traciyork has started the warm-up to HivePUD aka, Hive Power Up Day, where every one with a Hive account is encouraged to stake or power-up their HIVE tokens on the 1st of each month. This is a fun initiative that has been growing in size, popularity and prize structure since Traci took over the helm and shows no sign of stopping!

I know some are like "isn't every day power up day?" and you are also right, the benefits of staking can be realised any time but if you're eligible to enter HivePUD, then you can get some pretty amazing prizes that will supercharge your account. There's sponsorship from @hivebuzz, various witnesses and whales and of course, it's a great way to spread more positive vibes about the place. Here's the criteria from Traci's post:

  • Your reputation must be above 39 and below 70.
  • Your total Hive Power (before the 1st) must be more than 100 and less than 8000.
  • You must power up at least 10 Hive on March 1st.
  • You must write a post about your power up on March 1st with the tag #HivePUD (International) or #HPUD (Spanish).

Although I don't meet the criteria for the amazing prizes below, I'm still a sucker for the badges that @hivebuzz have created. so I'll be powering up what I can on the 1st! If you meet the criteria then the prizes on offer are well worth salivating over - here's a screen grab of some of the top prizes on offer:

The list goes on after this screenshot by the way!

Hivebuzz badges are also available with more info about how to get your wings on those in this post.

Don't forget that there's also an airdrop coming with 3Speak in the coming months based on your Hive Power so well worth having some extra for when that happens.


Other Tokens

There are of course a vast array of other tokens and communities across Hive-Engine that may be running their own "PUD" initiatives so I'll be having a little look at what's available there too. We have the LeoFinance airdrop coming in the next couple of weeks and CTP are running regular staking contests along with LOTUS, SPORTS, HUSTLER... there's so much going on, more than you can shake a stick at (or stake at lol)!

So who's getting involved with Power Up Day on the 1st March? What other tokens are you eyeing up to stake? Let me know in the comments below!

Stake on!

Nicky

I need more HP to give more valuable votes, I am a user who distributes too many votes at 100% but I have most of my HP in delegation

Haha yeah I know what you mean as I'm the same. It's a balancing act with HP but if you have a lot of staked Hive Engine tokens, it can also make votes more valuable too. Maybe reduce the percentage you vote at to help get your vote power back to a higher level first

Ah yes I delegate to that account too, it's worth it for sure! A great way to get more CTP 😁

I'll be adding some more, but I may have bought at the wrong time :( I have a target for this year.

I just loaded up this morning in anticipation, then the prices fell lol. There's no winning but I'm HivePUD ready! What's your target? I'm pretty happy at 60k+ but not ruling out 70k by the end of the year! Mostly focused on Hive engine tokens atm though

I want over 70k by end of year. A low price helps me get there, but I don't mind at all if it goes up. I am building up some of the tokens as I earn them, but not spending much on them.

Yeah same, if it's as cheap these last two months vs the end of this year then something is seriously awry! I'm excited for the vibes token. They did an announcement launching their miners earlier so got a few of those - that's the music token

I'm resigned to not being in on every hot token. I'll be happy if a couple I hold do okay.

I did buy a couple of the Vibes miners with the spare change I had on HE. It's no big deal and maybe I will make something from it.

If you bought at 1.5 HIVE per miner then you're already in the green. Otherwise, just hold them.

This is an interesting idea to get more people staking their hive. I have been staking as it comes in, but hopefully I can stack 10 more hive before the 1st. If not, next month will be my month LOL

Yeah it's a great initiative run by Traci and the team! Hold off staking until the 1St, you might make it over the 10 HIVE otherwise, looking forward to seeing you smash it next month and get some badges/prizes!

I've powered up a bit then I remembered it was Feb and short month so had to remember to pick up some HIVE before the 1st! Be sure to follow @traciyork and @hivebuzz for the countdown and get ready for some epic badges for powering up 😀

I like the badges too. I don't think I am going to be able to participate this month. I just don't have enough liquid Hive to put into my account. I spent most of it on miners today! Maybe next time!

There's still a couple of days to get that minimum 10 HIVE needed for the badge. I've been on a miner buying rampage too haha! LOTUS and VIBES miners now, hoping to get a little more before they go at this tier of pricing!

Yeah, I was pretty bummed that I missed out on more at the 1.5 Hive point. I just realized I might have some funds coming in by Monday so I might be able to do a power up after all!

Oh wow, have they all gone at 1.5 for VIBESM already?? Wasn't expecting that! I'm also looking at the divs paying tokens as an option. Got a few that drip in bits and pieces here and there.

The 1.5 was gone by about 9 AM this morning EST. I had to purchase the majority of my miners at 3 Hive per for the Vibes Miners.

Haha, yeah love those badges and you're right, always a good way to grow your HP and stake regardless of the criteria for the prizes. Mine is pretty much delegated all away but thinking of taking some of it back and give better HIVE votes to those who comment (on top of the Hive-Engine tokens) - have fun on the 1st! Looking forward to it all!

Unfortunately I have nearly nothing to power up this time around. I've been blowing it all on LOTUSM miners, but you know that already. Hopefully next month I'll have at least a 100 liquid HIVE to power up.

I'm always ready for #PUD! I always make sure I have a minimum of 10 hive to power up on the 1st. I like to do more cause I like getting the bigger badge but I do what I can.

Ah mate! If they did Leo power up badges that would be sweet! Leo power up day with similar incentives to the Hpud with Traciyork. Then there really would be no liquidity left haha
