For those from the right era might know what I'm talking about, you gotta catch em all!
Another year has passed and that means the hive power up day is there again. At this point it is also time to close the final power up month of 2023. I managed to close it successfully again and with that receive the final badge:
I'm a bit sad to have missed two badges in the past year. In both cases I was very busy and simply forgot to power up one day. It happens. For 2024 I will do another attempt. I'll try to stay focussed the whole year round this time.
This first of January I powered up 50HP to get my own badge and powered up 10HP to another acount for the helper badge. One down, eleven to go!
This first post of the year is directly my entry to the #hivepud contest by 
While in 2023 I managed to grow my account by 2K HP and with that become a dolphin, 2024 should show the same growth. That is, I would like to add another 2K and end up around 8K powered up. With steady curation, regular posting, and now with the witness node up and running that goal should be doable.
Regarding the witness, it has been running smoothly now for about three weeks and signing two to three blocks a day without issues. Once the first month of uptime has passed I'll write a small update regarding this topic.
With the new year ahead, I wish you all a great year with nice challenges and opportunities ahead! I'm looking forward to lots of interaction here on the chain and beyond!
Happy new year!
