Welcome Back 1K Hive Power Up!!! .:. June 1st HivePUD
F... it! I did it again! π On January 1st, I said to myself that that would be my last 1K power-up after doing that consecutively from November 2021! That was a fantastic streak of 27 months of 1K HIVE power-ups! In February this year, I stayed out of "munition", and I have powered a smaller amount... After that, I slowly raised that amount, and last month it was 500 HIVE, so the logical next step was to go back to 1K, and here we are! π

I have to admit that there is no "secret agenda" behind this and I had no idea that I would do that amount this #HivePUD, but the truth is that I was buying HIVE on every dip with my HBD earnings and some H-E income! What I didn't expect (but it was expected) is that HIVE will turn into a stablecoin! I mean, not literally, but if you look at the HIVE price chart, you will see that we are hovering around those 30 cents from mid-April, and before that, we had more periods around the same price!
Call me impatient, but I can look at my HIVE doing nothing... π I made some trades in the past, by keeping some buy and sell orders opened, but this accumulation period takes forever! π You know how it goes when you sell your tokens? Usually, they go up in price... π So. maybe my power-up will do that effect and HIVE finally move up a bit! π

I am aware that everything is buzzing around that we have an altcoin bull run in front of us and that locking up HIVE (powering up) isn't the wisest thing, but... All that CAN happen soon, or NOT... I'm not selling my HIVE, so everything is good! π I know that many people are powering down because of these reasons, but I like to do the opposite...
In the end, I don't like to be that guy who is saying one thing and doing the opposite... I strongly believe that "having skin in the game" is one of the most important things that you have to do if you want to stay truthful to yourself and your beliefs...
I preach about the importance of HivePower whenever I have a chance to do so, trying to show by example how we should use it, and powering down would be lying to myself and cheating on myself and others...

It feels so great to be able to power up 1K HIVE as in the old days!!!
This was my HivePower BEFORE the PowerUP:

Powering UP ALL liquid Hive as always:

And the final result is:

I reached 87K a few days ago, but I will not look at that number too much! With this 1K, 88K is already there!!! 100K here I come!!!
Another good news is that I have managed to power up HIVE every single day in May, and I will get my #HivePUM badge soon! After not getting in last month, I was scared that I would become inconsistent with it, but luckily, that wasn't the case!

To get this badge, you should power up at least 1 HIVE every day of the month OR create a post every day with rewards set to 100% HP...
So, what is #HivePUD?
Just a short introduction to HivePUD... What does it mean at all? #HivePUD is shortened for the Hive Power Up Day. It's an event when Hive members power up their liquid HIVE and stop any active PowerDown! It is organized by great fellow Hivians @streetstyle and @traciyork and is held every 1st day of a month.

Thank you for your valuable time,

Iβve not done very well this year in terms of HPUD and I will miss it again today. However I am going to have a go at buying some Hive with HBD to power up on a daily basis and to try and post something each day.
That sounds like a good plan! Everyone does according to their possibilities... That's fine... ;)
Exactly! It is true that Hive has become a stable coin. Nobody has pointed this out yet, but I think it is important. It could have big implications externally, which is not a bad thing at all. Well, at least it seems to me.
And of course, congratulations on the HPUD sum.
I'm moving more slowly. π
Agree 100% with you! People always want to see numbers go up, while with HIVE, I'm fine if we stay at this price... As long as we can get more HIVE doing useful things, we don't have to go up with price... ;)
That's sustainability (hope the word is correct)
Happy Hive PUD @ph1102 πͺπ
Thanks!!! My favorite day of the month! π
OMG 100k Hp on the way! I wish someday I could say that! I just donβt know how to get there xD but itβs great that youβre sticking to your preaching. I do believe thatβs the right way also. Congrats for getting back on track!
Well, I still have a lot to get to those 100K, but I'm determined to get there... We will see if it will happen... and when... π
There are not too many secrets about it... Slowly build up your stake, take out if and when you need it, but continue with adding up to your stake... and you will get there... You are doing a great job with your posts and engaging with others... That's already 95% of the needed work... π
Thanks!!! Happy #HivePUD!
Wow! It is a great continuousness!
Congrats mate π
Thanks! Appreciate the support!
1k hive really impressive. I hope to get to that level soon.
Looking forward to when you get to 100k hp
Thanks! Just keep adding step by step... It is possible to do it... ;)
I will do my best.
Wow
You should be called a Hive guru
Congratulations!!!
Thanks!
Congrats on the power up. That is an nice power up to really move the dial. It will feel pretty great to smash that 100k I'm sure. Fingers crossed we see a nice Hive pump, the alt season can't be to far away!
Thanks! We will see what happens with crypto and the most-expected altcoin bull run... I would like to hear more stories and fears that it will not come... That would give me more hope in it! π
Hi PH my good friend, itβs real amazing how dedicated you are to powering up HIVE consistently. I'm so inspired by this and can't wait to make more progress. Reaching 100K will be such a milestone big brother . Keep pushing, and good luck with the altcoin season too
Thanks!
Doing as much as I can... will see what happens...

Wow, that's some serious power up and it shows that you have real skin in the game. And to tell you the truth, I believe that it will pay off in the long run.
Oh, many... I would like to see your words come true! π
Thanks for checking out my post!
Today I saw and read your post, an extraordinary achievement. A motivation for me, and with effort and enthusiasm, I will continue to try to move forward πͺπͺπͺπͺβ€
Make friends, have fun, help yourself and others, and stack some HivePower... π
Thanks for your kind words!
I believe in Hive like I believe on Bitcoin before. Can we adjust the HivePUD on the 2nd please? π
Every day is HivePUD! π
The day isn't that important, but I like to do bigger powerups on this day just to motivate others and to do it together with other Hivians! π
I want that badge lol

Some people say that the bull season is very close, others say it will happen in 2025. I don't know which one we should believe, but for now I'm continuing to accumulate like you.
The truth is nobody knows when we will have a peak... All those are just guessing, which can we also do... For example, I think that we are still 10-12 months from the peak, which made me more confident in powering up my HIVE... If I miss it, well, that HIVE will help in accumulating more, and supporting other Hivians too! π
Happy HPUD and nice powerup. I think your actions show your conviction. I have yet to powerdown and I don't have any plans to do so.
Thanks! There are other ways to take a profit, not just by powering down... I'm always more into systematic, stable, and slow accumulation, but also taking profits...
Shame on me I missed June HPUD just on Friday I remembered about it. But on Saturday all time outdoors and missed...
It's not the end of the world... I'm powering up every day in small amounts and doing HivePUD just to be part of the "movement" and show by example... ;)
Yes I know that planet won't stop but anyway discipline should be, especially considering that I became less active on hive since I changed my place of work.
You are an inspiration to me, so I want to see how you keep raising the level. π Nah, do what you have to do according to what you consider best at all times. That's also wise. π€
Maybe we are on a similar journey, but we have separate paths to get to our goals... The same goes for #HivePUD, everyone does what it's on their mind, and wallets... :)
I canβt wait to the HPUD, I stake immediately as much as I can. π
Iβm glad our journeys crossed. π
Well locking at the moment we you've put it might not truly be the wisest, but also the curation reward till whenever the altcoin season is, is not easy to pass off on. Those potential rewardsl of Curation for months can head into thousands of Hive, so.
Congratulations, taking advantage of the internal market is a genius thing to do.
And if you add on top of that that it will help other people who I'm following and upvoting, that's enough for me! Plus, growing HP usually means growing the account followers and network too... ;)
Powered up 10 HP as well! It's so cheap these days hahaha!
!LUV
Hehehehe... Congrats on your power up!
Congrats man! I guess given the stabilish bahavior of HIVE, I don't regret pursuing both my HBD challenge and adding more liquid HIVE in the perspective of a probable alt season at some point. Sure, if we have a strong alt season for HIVE, I might regret then my HBD challenge, lol.
Well, we never know when the altcoin bull run happen... But, I will not regret powering up for sure... My HivePower works for my curation rewards, and gives more power to people that I upvote... that's a win-win if you ask me... :)
It is, and I applied the same strategy during the previous cycle.
Nice PUM badge and Jumbo Bee badge π.
Thanks! It's great to be able to do a 1K power-up like in the good "old days" π It wasn't that "old days", but it looks like forever to me.... hahahahah
Great minds think alike π I also did a 1K Hive power up.
Would it be terrible if $HIVE stayed at $0.30 for a while? I don't think so. It would definitely give me the opportunity to pick up more. Although, I do think having 40% of our tokens on exchanges is a bit too high. For comparison, only 10% of Bitcoin is on exchanges. If there are more people like you and me BUYING $HIVE at sale prices, we'll eventually start buying at $0.31, $0.32... and so on. The price WILL go up when buy pressure from dolphins and orcas (hard-core, long-term hiveans) starts picking up.
And if someone, somewhere comes up with a business use case for HIVE, or if a payments processor partners chooses to process its transactions on HIVE just like PayPal did with Solana... then my friend, Hive will moon π
It would be great to see more "equal" distribution of tokens on HIVE... Some of our whales are too big and they have other ways to take profits, and it's not by selling their HIVE... I like to joke that strong Orcas can be killer whales, as they are in real life... Let's not use strong words like "killer whales", but rather, strong Orcas to keep the balance in the HIVE ecosystem... π
Strong Orcas unite! I will be joining the orca rank soon and will be chanting this from the rooftops haha. Just give me a few more months. I have a post I've been meaning to finish about how, just like you mentioned, Orcas work together in the wild to protect each other and hunt. It's fascinating and I think Orcas need to work together on HIVE too. We can restore balance to the HIVE ecosystem by pushing back on whales with many medium-sized votes and also keeping our share of the reward pool staked.
