Oh my goodness - yep - it's DECEMBER!!! Already! Crazy, right? And what a year 2020 has been. For some of you, Christmas will be a quiet affair given lockdowns in some countries, and for others, a time of rejoicing as lockdowns ease. It's usually a very busy time and things get quiet on HIVE for the most part - a perfect time to post and be noticed, and earn more HIVE than ever!
For the December challenge, the only specification for entry is BUYING LOTUS FROM HIVE ENGINE and sending it to @naturalmedicine. Why buy it if you have it already? Because we're raising funds for some pretty cool LOTUS miners that should boost the LOTUS economy! We've been working pretty hard behind the scenes to make your LOTUS work harder and potentially be more valuable (including a big CHRISTMAS BURN - more about this later!). By BUYING Lotus, you help support us. We ask you to buy a minimum of 50 LOTUS, however, your generosity is appreciated and there is every chance that LOTUS prices will rise, so a little extra in your wallet can't go astray!
You can buy LOTUS on Hive Engine - here's a visual guide on how to. Any questions? Pop into Discord and ask any of our Lotus Curators for help.

So right now the badges are given out for mentalhealthawareness posts? I have some good remedies for that if so! Been trying to earn that badge. Natural medicine is a great niche for hive and to attract new users looking for answers when doctors can't help them.
We distribute badges at the start of each month, so if you have written under tag #mentalhealthawareness I'm sure you'll be a candidate! December badge winners will come out in first week of January.

Good work in the @naturalmedcine community! Christmas posts enough on my behalf, but the posts that suit the naturalmedicine community still need to be made (sorry haha) keep crafting here with my daughter, so it gets postponed every day :) I will join and buy LOTUS though :) <3
Wonderful!
step 1 ... done.. now the writing haha :)
Successes. Success is my sincere wish. Congratulations.

Despite rambling about mental health issues all the time, I've never made a post in the MHA hashtag, so I finally did:

And here's proof of the Lotus buy/send:
Thanks for all the great challenges! :)
We love you participating, and I'm glad you entered with that one - it was a ripper! I hope we inspire people to write - this one hasn't had many entries, so either it's too hard for people to buy LOTUS or there's not many people writing over December. So you are definitely in the running! xx

Finally got around to my post Pandemic Lessons - Gifts Straight from the heart Hope you enjoy it, Merry Christmas everyone!
Thanks @lizelle!
@naturalmedicine, good morning I am asking if this contest is still going on? When will be the deadline? Thank you. Merry Christmas everyone!
Deadline is the end of the month.
@olivia08 - I am officially closing the challenge now, as I have no more time to do a wrap up and I'd like to before new year. The next challenge will be much the same, so think about your entry for next month!
No worries my dear. Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year 2021
My entry is done just in time for the holiday season!
