Half through the year

Half through the year.jpg

With the Liotes Project, our target is to grow as a community and to help the community members to increase their stake. To do that, we have created the Liotes Power Challenge. We had the first edition in 2023, a second edition in 2024 and in January, we started the third edition of this Challenge. This is the second standing of this new challenge after about 6 months. We are half through the year!

The concept is very simple, the more Hive you power up, the better. You just do what you have been doing so far: create content, curate and grow. We will track your growth with this challenge and reward you accordingly.

How to take part?

If you are listed in the ranking below, you automatically take part. You don't need to do anything else. Simply power up as much Hive as possible during 2025. If you are not listed below and you would like to take part all the same, it's possible. You need to get into the top 50 of the liotes ranking at a later stage and you can then ask to be included in the challenge through a comment under one of our posts.

Who wins?

Everybody wins. At the end of a year we check who has grown the most over the last 12 month and the more you grew, the more you earn.

What can you earn?

For this challenge, we have a prize pot under the account @liotes.one. Whatever this account earns is powered up and delegated to the liotes.voter account. Like that the account earns daily dividends in the form of LEN tokens. These LEN tokens will then be distributed at the end of 2025. The more Hive you have powered up, the more you will earn!

What is new in this challenge?

We decreased the number of participants from 70 to 50 to save some time while doing these posts and adding value to the Liotes ranking. Another new thing this year is that we will include the accounts @ourpick, @liotes and @liotes.fund in the challenge because they are part of this community and we want to see how they evolve over the year. However, these 3 accounts will not be elegible for the prize money at the end of the year.

After big decrease, we are growing again

In April, we made the first standing and we were down by 62'000 Hive power since the beginning of the year. Since then, we are almost back to that level. Since the last standing, the total hive power of the community has grown nicely and we are only 16'000 Hive power behind the starting point.
I believe, it's great to see that we have managed to turn things around and are growing again as a community. I'm sure that we will be able to have a net growth by the end of 2025!

New script to calculate the Hive Power

Since the beginning of the this challenge, I have always been collecting the data for this ranking by hand. One account after the other. Today, in 10 minutes I managed to create a script thanks to AI that does this automatically... I've been waiting a very long time for that...

P.S: 50% of the rewards of this post will go into the prize pot (@liotes.one) of this challenge

Leading by example, great to see ph doing just that.
15th will do me, quite chuffed with my growth this year.
Hopefully as a community we will continue to grow and not too many of us power down.

More people will start understanding how easy is to create things now that AI tools know about github pages and can make sensible decisions for users that don't know yet how to program but have some basic understanding skills.

I use it many times to learn certain things that its not my normal plate.

I've started to use AI to build simple projects for only about two weeks and I'm amazed how many doors it has opened so far. I didn't even think about using github as contexte reference :-)

It's crazy indeed... it accelerates so much. And those "oh... i don't have the patience to search about that thing you used to remmember..." - snap... done.

I use Grok mainly, as others are less intuitive for my day-to-day, "help me quick as I forgot how it was called". Which ones do you prefer? Paid or free...

Thanks for the update. Interesting, rank 5. It's not that I intentionally strive to be at the top of this list. It's natural, I think !LOLZ

By the way, many familiar faces on the list. Congrats on progress to you all.

Have a great summer !INDEED & !BEER

For the prize pot ...

Ps: I am regularly converting all received $LEN into staked $LENM. This is the way!

I think we should be able to turn a net positive by the end of the year at this rate!

Haha, I should have kept more HIVE staked... The liquid HIVE didn't help at all, in 95% of the time since the beginning of the year.

I'm quite pleased with my progress this year, especially as I hit my 2025 target of 10k HP this month!
