Leo Power Up Day & My Hive Goals for 15 May 2023・The Road to 25k Continues!

avatar

So another LPUD overlaps with my Hive Goals post day. Funny how that works out. Let's talk about Hive first, because that is my main goal. But then we'll also go into Leo a bit for their power-up day, which I am joining.

Sound good? Let's go!

~ Hive & HBD ~

My current goal is 25k Hive, and I'm a little closer! This past week I made 128.750, bringing me to 14,569.09 total Hive Power. Still farther than I wish, but getting closer.

()

Let's do some math. 25k - 14,569.09 gives us 10,430.91. Almost at the T minus 10k mark. There are 231 days till the first of next year, meaning I need to be earning at least 45.155 per day to hit that arbitrary goal. Dang... still too high for me to make just from my average post earning.

Ah well, we'll keep trying and keep hoping the whales and orcas decide to take pity on me and start helping out with their votes.

Hive had a bit of a rough week last week. Part of me hopes it tumbles down to a quarter again so I can buy a bunch more. Anyway, we keep moving forward. Let's see what next week brings

~ LEO & LPUD ~

I've been joining in with the past few LPUDs. I get close to 150 Leo a month from curation and other earning, so might as well power it up.

Leo has been doing a lot right lately. And the past few days we've seen a bit of a boost up to 5 cents, maybe signifying that people are starting to pay attention. I really like Threads. I haven't been using it so much with this account lately, but I have continued to curate with my @bcpoets.threads account.

(Psst! Go write a poem on threads if you want to be curated. Tag it with #bcpoets so I can find it)

Threads started rough, but it has been improving pretty consistently. Now they have it better integrated with the main Leo portal, making it even easier for people to use. @anomadsoul mentioned in the chatroom for their Author of the Week initiative that Leo will be getting their own node soon to help improve things even more.

We all know that the biggest barrier to getting people to join Hive en masse is the key system. While the key system is a wonderful security feature, it is also hopelessly complex and fails the grandma test big time. If we can ever figure out that problem, Threads will draw in a lot of new people, making it something all of us should support.

Anyway, I powered up 150 Leo this time.

Not quite moving up as quickly as @dagger212 but there's still time!

I continued to sell SPT this past week. No new gains on BRO except what trickles in from various sources. I bought some more CINE. I may create a new account to start curating there. I like what Ray has been doing. The Cine front-end is really slick, just go look. They are going to be sharing the coding for that with Pimp, so look for big improvements in the Pimp frontend too.

Speaking of PIMP... well, I just kept powering up. I know I know, I passed my 50k goal and talked last week about taking some profit with future earnings, but I just couldn't do it. Plus Ray swapped some LGN for PIMP, putting him at the 100k PIMP level. So... is 100k my new goal?! 🤔

And forward we go! It was a strong week. Let's see how this one goes!

It seems that your average post earning is much higher than before. I appreciate you sharing these strategies and your progress. I will be referring to them as well.

I have recently been using Leothreads while participating in the campaign. There are some glitches, but the new interface is exciting.

It's kind of an illusion, actually. My posts are averaging almost exactly the same for the past two years. I just started converting my HBD to Hive and using it to power up everyday, so the average increase looks higher. But I decided making my HP higher is more important than saving HBD. Also, I thought if I can rapidly power-up, I might become more visible to the whales and their big curation upvotes. It's kind of a risk, but I hope it pays off.

Thank you for enjoying my power-up posts. I hope the information can help you too!
