HPUD Day, and I am Now an ORCA!

I normally Power Up some HIVE whenever I want, as I've been on my journey from Dolphin to ORCA. But today I was close to graduating to ORCA so I did a 100 HIVE Power UP.

And That Got Me To ORCA Status!

Since it is April Fool's Day, I better bring the receipts. Have a look at this screenshot from https://hivebuzz.me/ranking where you can go and search for me to verify this:

There I am, the very last and very newest ORCA on the HIVE blockchain, and it only took 8 and 3/4 years! 😃

Maybe this will give some hope to people who are also planning to move up the HIVE status ranks. It takes a while but it can be done. You can see from my posts that I don't get a lot of big votes, which is fine because I don't feel worthy of big votes! I just post about YouTube videos (as I have been doing for almost 20 years) and whatever else is happening each day. I put that in an #actifit post every day since I exercise every day. So I'm perfectly satisfied with my experience here and I plan to be here after another 8 and 3/4 years pass by.

There have been lots of changes over the years, and lots still to come. We have #VSC network launching now, which adds Smart Contracts paid for by staked HBD if I understand it correctly. That will be infrastructure that can be used to build many cool things like interoperability with other chains and escrow / Trusted Third Party services (like when you want to buy an asset from someone with another asset).

Splinterlands seems to be coming back. Maybe we'll have another boom of activity there. Land 1.75 seems to be helping prices of some assets and people are posting about that as well as cards and game variations.

#PEPE on hive-engine and its related siblings like RPEPE and PEPECASH and now others are doing well and are a source of fun around here! I have a bot that buys the lowest sell price several times a day so that helps people feel that there is exit liquidity if they want to sell. There are other interesting hive-engine tokens and you can see what I stack in my wallet and my other account's wallet. Work on #pepegame continues although at a slower pace than last year. It's been a trying Winter in my lived experience lately.

Let me show the actual #HPUD #HIVE Power UP to conclude this post.

See you later in my actifit post!

Good luck everyone on your HIVE journey and may you reach your HIVE goals even sooner than you expect! ❤️ 🙏 👍
