HPUD People

Bye bye March, nice knowing ya, you wet rainy auld fecker ya. Roll on a drier sunnier April. It's the first of the month again and that can only mean one thing ->> Hive Power Up Day.

So on the home front, I no longer post every day, as to be honest that was taking a toll on me, as I have too many other responsibilities and things going on between work, family and sport (playing and coaching). So now, I tend to post around four to five times a week and I am very happy with that. Sure, my growth is a little slower, but it is still growth, so I'll take it.

Recently, I have started to put lots of my rewards into HBD savings, but I do like to take part in HPUD also, so here I am. It's always nice to see that Hive Power number ticking upwards.

Hive is finally on the up and up and last months 20% rise has been matches again this month with another 20% uplift. We've gone from $0.37 to $0.45. Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll have noticed that Crypto assets are going up up up led by Bitcoin which has now passed its all time high, which is very promising for us Crypto heads.

As I continue to accumulate and compound everything, I've seeing gains across my Hive, Leo and other layer 2 holdings such as #SportsTalkSocial #VerfiyYourBrian #Proofofbrain, which is always great to see. Sow the seeds for your future now my friends and you may well reap rewards in the long run. Now when I say gains here I mean that I have more of them, yes their value has waned in certain cases, but that is short term in my opinion.

The beauty of Hive is, you don't have to invest any hard earned Fiat, _{although I would advise that you do invest some FIAT, to accelerate your progress!!}

At times I wish that I had in those early days, as it has been a long journey for me, but as I have told you many times before, my account has grown up from 100% organic growth from nothing other than around 10 or 15 delegated HP to get me going. But hey, I don't have a time machine, so I am where I am, and happy to be growing. Although it would have been easier to start from 1000 Hive, I'm still really proud with what I've achieved from a zero start.

Power Up Day April 2024

I am proud to say that this is my twenty ninth PUD. It's a good way of showcasing the importance of powering up and staking what you have in the Crypto space in order to put your earnings to work and compound with even more earnings.

Another bonus for me is that it gives me a timestamp that I can easily refer back to in order to track my growth here on the platform.

These were the criteria for Hive PUD:

• Your reputation must be above 39 and below 70.

I am now 73.67 so don't qualify for main prizes

• Your total Hive Power (before the 1st) must be more than 100 and less than 8000.

My total hive power before 1st was 12,780 HP so again I don't qualify

• You must power up at least 10 Hive on the 1st of the month.

I have just powered up 10 HIVE bringing me up to 12,790 Hive Power overall

• You must write a post about your power up on December 1st with the tag #HivePUD (International) or #HPUD (Spanish).

This is my post about the power up
