Truth be told, I don't like the "Power Up Day" concept. It is far too manipulative for my taste.

Think about it: On Power Up Day, HiveBuzz asks people to make a financial decision to prove loyalty to the platform.

I care a great deal about the new users. It is hard for a new user to make 10 HIVE in a month. The ones that do should power up throughout the month.

As for long term users, the easiest way to get the badge is to power down 10 HIVE so that they could power up 10 HIVE on the first.

I hope HiveBuzz realizes the foolishness of the design.

That said, I find HPUD as a good excuse to take a snapshot of my account. I was doing this with an external spreadsheet. My spreadsheet got confusing when I tried to factor in the alt coins.
