It didn't occur to me until I was almost done putting this month's Power Up Day post together, that it's been almost exactly two years now since I started managing this initiative. It was On May 27th, 2020 that @streetstyle, who was the originator of Hive Power Up Day (though it began with a different name on our legacy chain back in April of 2019), quietly dropped a 1K Hive Power delegation in my wallet, then disappeared from the blockchain. Yes, I know his profile shows he was active on January 17th of this year, but that was the day that 3Speak had a hiccup & published some old videos. I'm still holding out hope that he'll cruise on by Hive some day soon, and I can't wait to see his reaction to how much his amazing idea has taken off in the past twenty four months.

Now to the business at hand - while technically in my little corner of the world there's still around 2 hours left of May (I'm posting this a bit after 10:00pm EST), #HivePUD for June 1st 2022 has already arrived in other parts of the world. If you want a super cool way to check if it's officially in your area according to UTC time (which is how the Hive Buzz badges are determined), be sure to check out the Countdown Timer on the hivebuzz.me site (under the green "Power Up" tab), courtesy of the awesomesauce team at @hivebuzz!

Oh, and speaking of the ever awesome Hive Buzz team - if you enjoy all the cool things they do to make our blockchain home extra fun, please consider checking out their Hive Gamification Proposal for 2022, which recently dropped below the new base return proposal, so it's no longer being funded. It would be an excellent way to show your appreciation of all they do by clicking that blue "support" button!

 

 

HivePUD TL;DR

  • If you want to qualify for the AMAZING Hive Power Up Day badge(s), your power up must happen during the 24 hours of June 1st 2022 according to UTC time.

and/or

  • If you want to qualify for the #HivePUD prize pool, your power up and post must happen (according to criteria listed below) during the hours of June 1st 2022, your local time.

 

AND PLEASE NOTE:

As I did back in July 2021, in April 2022 I decided to combine the usual first two posts (Announcement & Welcome to HivePUD) into this one that I publish around the first few hours of the start of the first each month. In addition, I'll do some extra signal boosting of the "HivePUD is coming" posts done by others instead, as it seems like it will be the best way to spread the word. 😊

 

Now, for the basic Power Up Day details...

 
 

What is HivePUD?

Hive Power Up Day happens on the first of every month. Those who are able to, take this time to power up some Hive, and/or cancel their power downs and pause trading/selling for the 24 hour span of the day.

If you'd like more in depth information about Power Up Day, please check out this post from July 2021.

 
 

What are the rules to win prizes for HivePUD?

The requirements are:

  • Your reputation must be above 39 and below 70.
  • Your total Hive Power (before the 1st) must be more than 100 and less than 8000.
  • You must power up at least 10 Hive on June 1st.
  • You must write a post about your power up on June 1st with the tag #HivePUD (International) or #HPUD (Hispanic) as one of your first 5 tags (tagging only in the body of the post doesn't count)..

 
To be included in the winners list, you must meet all four requirements above. The order of the list (first place, second place, and so on) will be determined by the biggest PERCENTAGE of Hive powered up, not necessarily the most Hive powered up.

Damn right I will be in again!

I have been leaving some delegations in place longer than the initial month. Mainly because I am meeting some neat new people building their stake and a 500 HP delegation will mean more when we are back well above $1 Hive.

Stake that hive!

That is awesome!

I didn't bother to post my #hpud in the contest but I put a few biscuits in the basket!

Great post, thanks for sharing :))))
I will try to take part this time! hihi

I earned my HivePUM badge for May, powered up for HivePUD, and wrote a post about the whole shebang, so I am on board and ready to roll! What's the best way to help support the initiative as another sponsor?

Wicked awesomeness, @jacobtothe! And while I love all the different prizes that the sponsors offer, I have to say I love the delegation prizes just the teeniest bit more, because it seems the best way to help an account grow extra fast for those weeks they have it. Just let me know the amount & how long you want to delegate for (typically three weeks or a month) and I'll add you in to the upcoming "It's here! Hive Power Up Day for July 1st, 2022" post. And thank you! 😎

I can delegate, say, 100 HP as a trial and see how it works out.

Let’s do this all!
Happy POWER UP DAY 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Got my HPUM badge for May 🤩 still saved some Hive for today 😁

Definitely the best day of the month! It's awesome to see Hivians powering up on the #HivePUD! I'm not qualified for the main rewards, but I will do my part later today and power some HIVE just because! :)
I hope that this additional promotion in the @Ourpick post will help!


I have picked this post on behalf of the @OurPick project and it will be highlighted in the next post!

I'm going to do power up in some posts taking advantage that the Hive is low, I think it's the best way to accumulate some HP.

To power up is great, but currently I am using my free Hive to buy HBD to receive that very nice 20% APR.

Been waiting all May for this
