- SPUD FORCE -

If you are reading this, then it means that SPUD X has launched and is now traveling across the span of the globe. As a Steem member you will have the next 48hrs to show support for the Steem Blockchain by participating in this event and/or supporting it with upvotes and re-steems.

According to @penguinpablo's Daily Steem Stats Report, activity is up on the Steem Blockchain, correlating with the slight uptick in price. In the report, it also shows that Power Downs are nearly on par with Power ups. It also shows that yesterday, @theycallmedan had the largest transfer of Steem from an exchange back into his Steem Account. The report then shows that @theycallmedan proceeded to have the largest Steem Power up of 250,000 Steem Power.

Now that's some Rocket fuel! Amazing job launching past the stratosphere and into the Steem Blockchain heavens Dan!

It is now our turn, the SPUD FORCE, to take command and launch the next wave of Power Ups for this SPUD X. Let us follow in the footsteps of TheyCallMeDan, and put rocket fuel in our Steem accounts in the form of Steem Power. Having Steem Power shows you have some skin in the game and are a believer in the long term success of the Steem blockchain. Steem Power in your account helps you support and empower others, while at the same time doing the same for your account, which then inspires others to support your account for the same reason.

At this point in time in the crypto-revolution and social media paradigm shift, we members of the Steem Blockchain have front row seats. Some might consider us innovators for participating at this stage of the crypto-revolution. Locking up Steem Power now reserves and keeps your seat reserved on the Steem Blockchain, which could one day potentially rocket up to the Moon!

It did it once, could the Steem Blockchain do it again?

Let me know down in a comment below what your Steem Price prediction will be at the time of the Bitcoin Halving.



What is SPUD and How Will It Help?


SPUD stands for STEEM POWER UP DAY, (SPUD) takes place the first day of every month.
On this day:

  • We ask that Steemians that are able, to POWER UP any amount of STEEM they have on SPUD day.
  • We ask Steemians that are currently Powering Down, to put a Stop on Powering Down for that Day, and if desired to commence the Power Down the following day.
  • We ask that those that trade or sell Steem to Not Sell or Trade Steem on SPUD Day, but to do it the day before or after if possible. Also, to cancel any type of Sell Order on the Exchanges.

SPUD X PRIZES

The prizes are meant to incentivize the smaller Steemians, the planktons, minnows and aspiring Dolphins out in the Steem Ocean to participate in powering up on SPUD, and hopefully create more understanding as to why Steem Power is important to user account growth as well as a show of Steem Blockchain support.

Rules to Win Prizes for SPUD X :

MUST have a reputation score BELOW 69.00 ( so 68.99 is good & Can participate.) AND more than 250 STEEM POWER (prior to SPUD X) BUT LESS than 8000 Steem Power.
MUST have a reputation score of 40 & ABOVE (so rank of 39.99 will Not Win)

MUST have at least 1 Steem Post in their blog about SPUD X

MUST Power Up Steem on February 1st, 2020

On February 1st, you MUST make a post about your POWER UP. It can be as simple as "I powered up X amount of Steem" to a simple picture/screenshot of your Power Up and posted to your Steem blog, or it could be a super long dissertation on Steem Power. IMPORTANT: SHOULD USE SPUDX Hash tag so that I can be sure to see them.

The winners Must meet all 5 requirements, and it will be based on the Biggest Steem Power Up PERCENTAGE, not the biggest Power Up. This means that it will be based on the ratio between your current amount of Steem Power and the amount you power up on February 1st.

For Example:

If you have 1000 Steem Power already powered up prior to February 1, and on February 1 you complete steps 1-5 with a 100 Steem Power Up,

and

another Steemian has 200 Steem Powered up prior to February 1, and on February 1st Powers Up 40 Steem, then this 2nd user would be winning with a 20% power up versus the first example with a bigger power up but smaller percentage of only 10% based on their account.
__

The winners will be announced via a Steem Post a few days later or sooner, and if no one challenges it or lets me know I missed them after 1 day from Winner Announcement, the Winners become official and the prizes will then be given out.

Thank you to All our SPUD Prize Sponsors and to all SPUD supporters and participants working to get STEEM to higher Elevations!!

FULL STEEM AHEAD!

Cheers & Good Luck!

Ready!

SPUD here

Great work @streetstyle
My prediction for the price of steem at the time of the btc halving is .47

Thanks @thebigsweed and that would be nice, Steem @ 0.47 cents!!

So @streetstyle, I just upvoted and resteemed this post.
Does that count as

have at least 1 Steem Post in their blog about SPUD X?

I currently have:

I may have a little more in the morning to redeem, so what would my percentage be if I powered up 85 steem w/ 1,362.1 49 Steem Power?
My Rep is 65, so I meet both the top and bottom cut offs.

Hello @jerrytsuseer for your interest in #spud and that would work, as that is a fair reading of the rules. As for your percentage, it would be about a 6% Power up. Again, thank you for supporting #spudx take care.

I just powered up all I had, and posted a link of that post as a comment here on this post @streetsyle

Thank you @jerrytsuseer for joining in on the #spud fun... it is needed and appreciated. Take care.

Here is my SPUD Results post for this month. Thank you so much for doing this @streetstyle! You are awesome!

https://steempeak.com/hive-174578/@bxlphabet/my-spud-10-results-post

I almost didn't catch this if it wasn't for this message.... @bxlphabet just so you know, try to use the hashtag #spud on your post so I can see it easier, otherwise I will not be able to find it with so many others posting too. Thank you for joining us and take care.

Dang! Fixed it! I can't believe I forgot. TY @streetstyle. So glad you found me. and I will be back next month withthe correct tag :)

A small correction, my giveaway is 10 Steem Power, not Steem 🙂

Hello @livinguktaiwan Thanks for being a great #spud sponsor and I just noticed this so I will make the up date as soon as I get a chance. Again, thank you for joining us for #spudx

According to what I see on Steem Now by @penguinpablo, the price of Steem is down 1¢ from where it has been for months.

Did my part

Thanks for your initiative, month in month out 👍

!BEER

Thank you @ervin-lemark for joining on this fine #spud day! Take care.

Gracias @kathe-art por acompañarnos en este dia de #spudx Saludos.

Will someone be disqualified for having 246 SP even if they power up over 100%?

I told my friend about this contest and thought the increase was from 100 to 200 sp. It would be extremely diappointing to be disqualified over 4 steem. To be fair to us, your own example uses 200 steem

another Steemian has 200 Steem Powered up prior to February 1, and on February 1st Powers Up 40 Steem, then this 2nd user would be winning with a 20% power up versus the first example with a bigger power up but smaller percentage of only 10% based on their account.

Hello @lacking Sorry I just saw this but I imagine you are referring to @oblivioncubed 's entry which was just shy by 3 and change points. I did struggle with this one. Please see his reply coming up. Thank you.

No worries. Water under the fridge. Maybe next month just update the example to within the parameters of the contest to avoid confusion.

Hello @streetstyle
Here is my participation in the SPUDX contest.
The height of my Power Up is 143.896 Steem.
Here is the link to my entry.
Have a nice weekend
Greeting from @bitandi
