It's Hive Power-Up Day! for July 2023
Another Hive Power-Up Day is upon us! We are into July already! This year is going fast...
Let's do a few things in this post. 1) Talk about Hive Power-Up Day 2) Talk about my power-up 3) Hold a giveaway! (I'm sure you'll all like this part)
What is Hive Power-Up Day? Let's get a brief intro out of the way for any of you who may be unfamiliar with the day.
Hive-Power Up Day (HPUD) is when we all power-up some hive. Pretty simple. Powering up has many benefits, such as increasing your vote and your stake in this platform. Increasing your vote is my favorite one. Having a larger vote means you can reward people more, giving more than a few pennies (or a fraction of a penny for newer accounts). For those who are less inclined towards altruism, having more Hive Power also means you will receive more curation rewards—i.e., more money.
Although we can, of course, power up on any day of the month, HPUD serves as a communal initiative that not only motivates us to power-up but also to feel part of a larger, supportive community
HPUD uses UTC time, so it started about 15 minutes ago as of this posting. It's a bit after 9am on the 1st Japan time, and I think a little after 8pm the day before on the east coast of the US and just after midnight UTC. Navigating time zones can be tricky. To avoid any confusion and to make extra sure, this is my favorite time zone conversion site. Or you can also go to the Hivebuzz page, login, and they will show you a countdown clock.
If you have at least 10 Hive which you can power-up, you will get a badge from doing so. Furthermore, if you are under level 70 then you might get some big rewards for powering-up as well, like a lot of Hive in delegations. Alas! I'm over level 70, so no rewards for me. But it's ok, I enjoy supporting the platform.

I've powered-up 200, which is a bit higher than the past few months, but lower than the few before that. However, I've also been powering up around 5-10 Hive everyday for HPUM (Hive Power-Up Month), which adds another 150-300 Hive. Hmm... still not as high as I'd like. I'd really like to get back to my 1000 Hive power-ups. Well, the only answer there is to get more upvotes on my posts. Any volunteers to help me out on that?

Quickly, let's see where that puts me on my road to 25k Hive Power. I'll save the detail for my Hive Goals post in a few days, but we'll take a quick peak. After this power up, I stand right at 16,238.03. That's 65% of my goal.
Growing stronger!! Soon to be an orca!! Let's dream big!

If you miss out don't worry, there will be another next month. But that next month will be here before you know it. I suggest following @hivebuzz and/or @traciyork so you will be reminded a few days before the next one.
Free SBI for Power-up!
Let's make this fun. I held back enough Hive from my power-up to support a small giveaway. First 10 people who power-up at least 10 hive and comment on this post showing proof (a screenshot of the power-up) will get 1 SBI each from me.
(If you don't know SBI, sometimes called HBI, it is a lifetime payment system. It will give you upvotes proportional to the number of SBI you own forever, or at least as long as Hive and/or @josephsavage lasts.)

Are you ready to power-up and get your rewards? Let's grow together on Hive Power-Up Day!

Congrats👏I think 200 HP is a great enough amount. I am going to power up and post it today.
I have been powering up LEO every month for the last couple of months as well which makes it even harder to get funds ready. I need to look for a few more different ways to get funded🧐
Thank you 😃
You've been doing really good with Leo related things recently. I have been powering up with them the past few too. Anyway, I hope you can find the funds without too much trouble. Good luck!
By the way - since you also powered-up, here, have the last SBI of my giveaway.
Wow! Thank you!
I also just sponsored 1HSBI for you.
Congratulations @dbooster! You received a personal badge!
Wait until the end of Power Up Day to find out the size of your Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!
You can view your badges on your board and compare yourself to others in the Ranking

Lol I'm sure there will be more volunteers to help you on that as time goes on... 200 Hive for today and 5-10 daily is a lot and that shows good commitment to Hive community 🙌
I do power up daily for HPUM and I'm so happy to see my progress every time hehe.
You'll get there, 25k HP is way to achievable with the mindset you have and I wish you good luck on your goals 🙂
Just did my power up and came across this post, so here is a screenshot.
Will be making a post about it soon too, Happy HPUD and happy new month to you.
Looking good! Happy HPUD to you too!
Thanks!
Konnichiwa, Davidu san!
I have struggled to do much on Hive these last few months but did want to power up today and have already done so. Since I'd been meaning to say 'hi' I thought I'd pop over here to see what you're up to and lo and behold you've given us the option to be rewarded. So, why not? Here 👇
And... I think I asked you this already (sumimasen!) but I wanted to check where you live (again! I think! I cannot work out how to search well on Hive and since I didn't write it down immediately--I was sure I would remember--I have forgotten where you said!).
After returning from our Aussie ski trip we're fuelled and excited by the idea of planning the skiing trip to Japan for Jan or Feb next year. And while I have no clue how hard it would be to visit you, we can't do it if we don't know where you are. Haha. (Of course, you might tell us to rack off and that you don't want visitors, but maybe you do?)
!HUG
Good timing! Here is your SBI 😃
I live in a small town about an hour from Nagoya. I have no idea if we have any plans for Jan or Feb next year. My wife is the one who holds the schedule book. haha. But let me know when you get more excite dates and I'll see what's going on.
Woooo! Yay! Arigato gozaimasu, Davidu san!
An hour out of Nagoya; it's written on our map now! Yes, let's see what happens when we get closer.
I sent 1.0 HUG on behalf of @consciouscat.
(5/300)
sir plz make me an hbi whale
Here you go!

First, thank you! Your post was the one, what made me decide to look into that HBI and generally these 'curator', vote seller accounts. Well, kinda ironic even the 'whales' support them, meantime they say, it is not good, allowed... I change plenty things here from now.
Anyway, plz count me in for the SBI! Thanks!
Here you are 😃
Lol... I powered up 2000 HP in the middle of june... What a fool i am 😉
I should have waited for HPUD July and i might have made it into the top 100 of HPUD-ers 😂
But to be a bit more serious... check this out
Skip to 1.10 mins to see the poem all about the wonders of pudding... I mean HPUD of course 🤣
Unfortunately I can't see it. Do you have a link directly to 3speak to see it?
A mid-June powerup is still a powerup, so here you go!
Holly cow... I didn't expect you to send me magical internet monies @dbooster 😉
I better get this poem to you, it's uploading to YouTube right now. 3speak has been acting up a lot for me recently, so I've stopped using it (also to be brutally honest I think taking 11% bene from every post is outrageous). here is the original post, see if you have any luck with loading the video with that?
