Over 800 Hive powered up and more to come

It has not been easy to keep up with my staking target but things are progressing nicely. My plan was to stake 400 Hive per month and right now, it looks like I'll be doing it.

I piled up a small amount of HBD and liquid Hive through P2P purchases. Today, I powered up a small chunk while keeping the rest liquid, just in case there's a mega pump.

Throughout the week, my hive power has been rising because of post rewards. I kept the HBD aside and watched the market, waiting for a nice time to buy.

I was hoping I'd get hive around the 39 cents mark like it dropped last week but that didn't happen. Instead, the asset trades around 42 cents for most of the weekend and will probably start to climb again during the week.

The way I see it, I'll win either way. If hive pumps, I'll sell the liquid and wait out the bull market and if it doesn't, I'll simply buy from the market and stake as much as possible.

Anyway, today, I made a small stride towards my 5K Hive power target by staking close to 100 hive. This, combined with the hive power I get from publishing has taking my stake to 800 Hive power.

I believe that if I stay on my current trajectory, I will reach or at least get close to my staking target. It will require digging deep into my resources but I believe it will be worth it in the long run.

My allocation for monthly hive purchases from my personal income is already half way depleted and we're not yet in April. If the market stays as it is, then it should be enough but if the pump eventually comes around, then I'll have to rethink my staking strategy.

In any case, the point is, for now, I'm heading towards 5K Hive power by the end of the year and I think I'm going to make it.
