Happy birthday!
Thank you for the chronological journey through your time on Hive.
It was an awesome ride. I remember Tomas @czechglobalhosts, and that was where all started for me, I could say. Too bad (especially for him) that he is not on Hive anymore.
And yes you were my mentor and with you I started to curating and authoring "higher quality" posts.
Thank you for being here and for all your support.
Little gift from me @tipu curate 4
Oh wow, thank you so much Andy. For this beautiful comment, for bringing back the memories, for your generous birthday gift and continuous support... In fact, it started with Tomas for me too. It was the cooperation offered by him what made me make the decision to go fulltime hiving right at the beginning of my journey. Actually, he sent me a message a week ago or so and we had a little chat. He is fine, living in Portugal where he bought a house. He is still in crypto but more into Metaverse right now. He knows about the progress we have made here on Hive but doesn´t plan to come back as of now... Maybe one day, who knows :)
Awesome!
Hive is really fun, especially for me who is not present on other social medias.
So I love interacting and getting to know new people.
Say hello to Tomas when you will be in touch.
I will ;) Thanks. I am sure he still remembers most of the regular participants of his contests and so do I :)
Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 0/100) Liquid rewards.
How does this tipu works ?
Here is a list of the TipU curators: https://tipu.online/hive_curators Each of them can give out a certain number of TipU votes every day :)
All of it free ? or we have to deposit something ? And one first need to be a curator to curate, right ?
No need to deposit anything, you just need to become an official TipU curator. I don´t know if they accept new curators right now, sometimes they do. Once you are a curator, you can start giving out the TipU votes. The more diverse your curation is (= you should spread the votes among as many different authors as possible), the more votes you can actually give out every day. And btw self curation of up to 10% of your total curation is allowed ;)
I barely do self curation, let me know, when they would accept new curators.
Ok I will. In the past, there used to be at least small rewards (mostly between 0.1 and 0.5 Hive per day) for us, the TipU curators, who manually go through other people´s posts, look for the good and undervalued ones and give the TipU votes to them. Those who delegate to TipU don´t have to do anything and they have a very decent passive income from their delegations. Us, curators, we work every day and get nothing for it so the occasional self votes that are allowed (only up to 10% of your total curation) is the only little reward we now have for our work. So yeah, I do that.
