10 HP powerup for 220501 HPUD.png

Ok so not as big as last month's power up, but we've managed to stay consistent this year. Fifth Power up so far!

We're also back in the race for HPUM!

Which is not as easy as it seems.
I was unable to find a computer to power up one day and missed 1 day by only a few minutes, lol.
We've still powered up every day, it's just that we've got to be more consistent with the timing.

No big deal.

We'll get it this month.

Our daily power ups, including yesterday's 10 HIVE power up, put us at 13,393.641 HP. Slowly, but surely working toward our 200K HP goal for December 2026. We've not yet talked about this goal because we've still been working on defining the details, But it looks like 200,000 HIVE is the number and Dec 2026 is the target date.

Why do we do this?

Hive works on a consensus protocol called Proof of Stake (PoS). Every single member of the HIVE blockchain has influence and voting power that depend on the amount of HIVE Power (HP) you hold. To increase your HP, you must power up your liquid HIVE, which just means you lock it up in a sort of savings account.

For example, if you power up 1 HIVE, 1 HIVE will be deducted from your balance and 1 HP will be added to your Hive Power. You can now vote on amazing content and help creators earn a little more HIVE for their posts.
The amount of HP you hold gives you a sea-creature themed rank that goes from Red Fish to Whale:

there are rounded figures that will help you understand how much HP you need for each rank:

Red Fish = less then 500 Hive Power
Minnow = at least 500 but less then 5000 Hive Power
Dolphin = at least 5000 but less then 50,000 Hive Power
Orca = at least 50,000 but less the 500,000 Hive Power
Whale =at least 500,000 Hive Power and above

If you're interested in participating in #HPUD contests organized by @traciyork, @theycallmedan, @eddiespino, you can read about the rules here:

It's here! Hive Power Up Day for May 1st 2022

We don't qualify for the contests, but still powerup every month because we believe in the HIVE blockchain and want to help promote it and make it grow.

Happy HPUD Y'all!
