Plans, plans, plans...don't always come to fruition. But better later than never and I will be doing a Hive Power Up even if I missed the #HPUD due to busy schedule at work. And you can even see the proof below as I was preparing for the event, even started a post for it, but couldn't submit it in time...
"I will start by saying that I am not an user that waits for 1st of the month in order to Power Up his Hive tokens, but rather I prefer whenever so e liquid Hive is standing idle in my wallet to simply power it up right away. Why? Simply be use I like to put all my assets at work and powered up Hive provides passive APR and curation rewards. Still, I have some Hive on Hive-Engine, I will withdraw it from there and participate to the Hive Power up Day in order to show that I am a team player and support this. So, here we go!"
With few days later on and because the weekend is here and I've got some time on my side, here is my Hive Power Up. With 80.657 HIVE liquid in my account I went and powered them all up. From a balance of 37,763.415 HP and with the addition of 80.657 HIVE, I've upped my stash to 37844.072 HP. Not too shabby for just grabbing some Hive from here and there to make it.
The funds were gathered from different activities and passive revenue streams as follow.
While I believe in the projects above and see a bright future for them, I simply like Hive more and consider it a more stable investment. And by powering up, beside getting a passive revenue through APR, I also increase my curation rewards. On top of that it is easier to exchange Hive on different CEXes and DEXes in comparison to the others. Few steps to exchange, thus fewer fees in between trading platforms.
My current and ultimate goal is to get to Orca status before the bull run and historic new ATH will touch the entire crypto ecosystem. I hope and believe in some measure that Hive can surpass previous ATH, so now is a great time to accumulate. I've made it here, even if a little bit late, but powering up is a continuous activity for me as I've specified within this posts. Cheers to everyone and keep on going, this is the way!
