Got My First OneAlfa Vote!

Hi fellow Hiveians,

Today I hit a milestone for myself personally on the Leo side!

Got My First OneAlfa Vote!

It may sound a little corny but one of the things that I like to have is milestones when it comes to whales around here. I aspire to be graced with a vote from all of the whales at least once. I've gotten a few recently and really enjoyed one of the latest ones, One Alfa!

I've been graced with some good votes in recent days on some of my posts in the Leo community as well as some others like the normal Hive front ends. The Leo community is one that I'm getting more and more into as time goes on which shouldn't be a big surprise as how large the Leo community is but one thing I look forward to is when a post of mine not only attracts the normal users but when a whale takes a look at it and feels it deserves a little love, I feel honored!

I logged in one morning after waking up to do my normal morning routine to check what Hive has done while I was sleeping and I was surprised to see this one pop in my notifications on PeakD! Sorry Leo, I check PeakD before I check Leo most days :D Lol. Needless to say I was stoked! There's a bit of a dopamine boost one gets when they are on here and they log in after a post is published and see that it was well received not only from comments but from some votes that it gathers over time!

This post here was well rewarded on a Leo perspective and I got a whole lot of comments on it which was a really good thing for me. The comments on my posts have really increased and I am loving it! The interaction on Hive is awesome and the Leo community doesn't disappoint! I see more comments on Leo posts than I do most other posts, except for the KP Bros (Galen/Taraz) which is great. Engagement is key around here!

I've as well been inching closer to some of the other goals I have on both Hive and Leo for the year. I am hoping to hit 25k Hive Power by the end of the year and if I can manage to get some decent post rewards in the way I have been in the last few weeks, I think I'll be able to just squeak it in around the end of December with any luck! That was similar to what happened last year for me, I was able to squeak in on my goal of 20k Hive Power total at the end of the year and made it with a few days to spare. Can I make a similar feat this year!? 2,000 Hive Power is a fair bit of power to be able to get in 3 months LOL.

On the Leo side, I was able to cross 2k staked Leo Power on my curation dedicated account there! I was really excited about that one because I've been trying to post in the Leo community at least once a week or once every other week. It doesn't always work out that way but I am curating nearly every morning manually! I may end up moving to some automation in the near future to follow the trail of a popular voter like Alfa here perhaps, but one thing is for sure is that as my stake grows, the amount of Leo I am getting back in curation has increased nicely!

I was getting .5 Leo every 7 days for a while, then it moved down to every 4-5 days and now it's almost every day that I am getting the .5 Leo in curation rewards! One of the days I managed to get up to 1 Leo which was pretty badass. That wasn't a common occurrence just yet but hopefully it will be one day!

I am appreciative of the other votes I get too of course, Edicted has granted me with some good votes over the time that him and I have connected with each other here on Hive. There are some others that I have gotten some love from as well but don't want to go into every one. If you've hooked me up with a vote on something you find is a decent post, thank you!

Congrats. Well deserved, I see you curating regularly. I've only heard from him once.

Coolest question all day.

He did actually. No hiccups at all and, when we returned him to the no-kill adoption center, a gentleman and his 8-9'ish year old son came in at the same time. We spoke for a minute, five minutes later they left with Willy in the kids' arms.

I was annoyed, I couldn't really find some cool Leo art! Someone used this one so I stole it. I know there were a few people who did a lot of Leo related art but now I have no idea who they are and I can't find anyone who knows lol so this one is cool enough!

Sweet! Did you ever make an update post? I’m sure a lot of people would’ve wanted to know how quickly Willy Nilly and his brother grew on people

Apparently my response before this is the closest I got. Until you mentioned it I hadn't considered it, thanks! It's written down now.

And you called him his brother! Love it!

Hahah yeah well that’s one way to get an Alfa vote! I’m sure one day I’ll also get that type of treatment.

Lol you can always count on me to celebrate the corny stuff with. I was a little surprised though when I saw that considering the vote value, you could be a whale of your own. I mean you can dash out $0.35 votes yourself too, probably just won’t give as much leo as onealfa’s so it kinda makes sense why he!: the whale here.

I recall you mentioning a few days back how appreciator’s votes were random on your posts. You’re an awesome person and an awesome hiver and I’m glad the whales are seeing it.

You’re right about that dopamine shot after seeing votes and comments on your post a while after publishing. That has become my most recent dopamine addiction lol.

One Alfa is a whale on the leo finance side of the ecosystem. He’s got an insane amount of leo tokens, several hundred thousand or maybe over a million I’m not sure. But he’s one of the top Leo holders which is cool. If he gives the post a vote I think it’s huge for me who isn’t as popular on the leo side! Then he’s got his other hive account with a good stake too but delegates most of it out.

Thanks for the compliments man I appreciate it! I am certainly trying and I’m fortunate for the success I’ve had here so far that’s for sure. It would be good to keep it up and keep growing! I know that having goals and things in mind has helped me stay on track even when I fall into a posting rut and aren’t able to put out great content routinely.

Yeah, seems doing a deep dive into alfa was what I should’ve done first lol. Dude really is an alfa! I don’t really know that much about the Leo ecosystem so I’m lagging on some education. Hopefully I’ll be learning slowly as I get more interactive in the ecosystem.

About goals, I’m positive 25k will be hit by end of year like you plan. Congrats in advance!

Congrats man.

Hope we can get there as well.

I only got @leo.voter to vote me once.
I didn't know how or why, but it surely felt good knowing the approval of a whale.
