April Hive Power Up Day Delegation

April pud delegations.jpg

Again this month, were planning - @coquicoin's kind help again - to draw on noobs curated by the @lovesniper team. But not only have there been few new accounts, Power up Day participation seems to be a bit down.

So, at the risk of repeating myself:

But first: why you we need to power up

Although the monthly Power Up Day initiative is a fun event, there are very serious reasons behind powering up. It goes way beyond the monetising of one's content and HODL-ing. It literally is all about power.

I did my own dunce's explainer in 2021 and I'll summarise the important takeways:

  • As an account builds up Hive, one of the two crypto tokens generated by this blockchain, so does the Hivean's power or ability to perform actions on the blockchain.

  • Each action (comment, vote (like), post, or wallet transaction (movement of crypto currency) uses up resource credits which are replenished over a 24 hour period.

  • At the same time, we build both reputation and Hive and as we do, we also move "up" the Hive ladder.

  • We earn tokens (Hive and HBD and HP) from votes on posts and comments (authoring) and from voting and re-blogging (re-sharing on the blockchain) (curating).

A word about the nomenclature

The terms used to describe user levels - or status - are marine analogies and very similar to the terms used in the gambling world. The smallest accounts are plankton and, sadly (well, for some), much like happens in the ocean, become the fodder of the whales and orcas that inhabit the higher echelons of the Hive chain.

Still with Plan Z and the Fabulous Four

As I noted, we didn't have the usual PUD - again - this month, but that's not stopping the now Fab Four (@lizelle or @coquicoin, who joined me, a year later to make The Power of Three and @ifarmgirl, from going ahead with at least one delegation.

For April, we have selected one account and again it's an account to which we have delegated before, and which will receive a total delegation of 400 HP for 21 days.

Each of us - @lizelle, @coquicoin (herself a recipient of one of my delegations), @ifarmgirl and I (@fionasfavourites) - have (or will) delegate(d) 100HP to the account listed below - for three weeks (21 days).

The account that receiving a delegation for April is @mayramalu.

Looking to May

Given the drop off in participation, we're giving a long hard look at our monthly delegations. Should we pause them or should we continue?

We'd welcome your thoughts.

I'll let you know our decision ahead of Power Up Day on May 1st.

Until next time

Post script

If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:

  • re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I am adding them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
    and
  • "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.

Congratulations @mayramalu 🎊👏

Oh when I first jumped on the scene here this initiative not only helped me but gave me motivation. It often doubled my than share of HP once delegated. It also led me to power up more Hive to compete and have fun on most of the other HPUD initiatives to include HPUM. I hope the now Fab Four continues but I completely understand if participatation is low, it's hard to continue with the efforts. Unfortunately all good things sometimes meet an end. I'll never forget the power of three initiative that you lovely ladies have made possible.
