Joining LeoFinance to Participation in First Hive Power Up Day

Community Engagement is one of the most important factors in building a circle of like-minded people. The best part is when your growth depends on your work that is recognized by the community, and you selflessly give back to your community, this is what a community requires to thrive and flourish.

JOINING LEOFINANCE

I joined LeoFinance on March 01, 2022, it was the month when PolyCub came into being, PolyCub was the talk of the town because the token was launched on an interesting platform built to provide optimized yields based on DeFi 2.0.

The best thing LeoFinance provided me was "keys" to Hive Engine, which opened a door of endless opportunities for me. I never knew this journey would become more adventurous and rewarding, thanks to @scottcbusiness, whose amazing videos introduced me to LeoFinance.

HIVE POWER ISSUES

I started to engage with the community with my comments, but I had no idea that whenever I posted a comment, I lost some resource credits (RC), at the end of the day I was receiving error messages regarding the requirement of RCs when I tried to post something.

Then I opened the discord and joined the OCD community to learn more about resource credit problems, the OCD people were very helpful, they even told me the way to monitor the HP using hiveblocks.com. It helped me a lot to manage my RC consumption, but as I told you I could not resist engaging with fellow lions, sometimes I had to wait 3-5 days to recover my HP.

But, as time passed on, I started to gain a small chunk of Hive Power through my comments and posts. As the Hive power grew, I started to curate other posts, and also my engagement with the community increased.

HIVE POWER UP DAY

The more you have, the more you gain, this is what Hive power is for in simple words. Bigger HP means bigger vote value which increases curation rewards and also provides abundant resource credits for your posts which means more engagement with the community.

I first came to know about 'Hive Power Up Day' on the 1st of April 2022, when I saw so many posts about HPUD. It picked my interest and I visited hivebuzz.me to learn more about HPUD.

What is Hive Power Up Day: It is a nice Power-Bee badge for those who convert 10 or more Hive tokens into vesting tokens known as Hive Power (HP) on the first day of a month, the badge is awarded by Hive Buzz project, the purpose of this project is to track Hive user accounts engagement and award them with cool badges in return to their achievements.

You can use your Hive token to power up your friends as well, which can be achieved using peakd, Hive Wallet, or the KeyChain app, follow the link to know about the process by clicking here. This way you can receive a new badge known as PUD Helper, and your friend will receive a PUD badge as well.

My Participation in Hive PUD

I am very happy that I participated in Hive PUD On June 01, 2022. The process is very simple, you must have at least 10 liquid Hive in your wallet to participate, you can manage that liquid Hive through any central exchange or withdrawal service available on local exchanges such as TribalDex, LeoDex, and Hive-Engine.

I had used Hive Wallet on hive.blog to power up my account. You can see that there is 10 liquid Hive available in my account.

Using a small arrow, open the dropdown menu and click 'Power Up'

Enter the Hive amount you wish to power up your account with and click the "Power Up" button.

The next pop-up is for confirmation, if you wish to proceed, then click 'Ok'.

The Hive Keychain pops up to confirm the transaction.

Now, see the updated balance from 81 Hive to 91 Hive after transferring 10 liquid Hive to vesting.

A notification is sent by @hivebuzz to an active post as a comment. The PUD badge appears once the countdown timer stops and a new date starts.

This is the PUD badge I have received today for powering up 10 Hive on the 1st of June. 496 users on Hive Blockchain participated in PUD to receive this lovely Power-Bee badge. The Bee size depends on the amount of Hive used to power up.

Powering up you account means that you are standing up with the Hive community and believing in the mission it carries on.

If you are interested in this beautiful Power-Bee badge, then wait for the next PUD date, which will be 01 of July 2022.
