Powering up 696.969 Hive for HPUD

BY: @web3creative | CREATED: Feb. 1, 2026, 7:12 p.m. | VOTES: 109 | PAYOUT: $8.28 | [ VOTE ]

Hey friends! Happy HPUD once again!

Times are uncertain, but we keep moving along. The hive protocol keeps working as intended and new developments are constantly being pushed out by users.

I originally did a power up of 69.420 HIVE

But later in the day decided to bump it up a bit to 696.969 HIVE instead.

This small power up is part of my 8 year plan (which started in September 2022) to reach 250,000 HP. Today is day 1242 of 2671, which is 46.5% of my journey.

Let's look at how I've done.

As you can see from this chart, I've lagged quite a bit. I was supposed to be at 89,668 HP today, but I'm only at 66,172 HP. I'm 23,496 HP away from my goal, which is -26.20%.

Date HP Goal Actual HP variation % 1 Feb '26 89,668 66,172 -26.20% Date HP Goal Actual HP 13 Aug '23 45,060 44,177 22 Dec '23 48,618 48,588 31 Dec '23 48,980 48,745 31 Dec '24 63,450 57,730 31 Dec '25 83,169 65,000 31 Dec '26 109,274 --- 31 Dec '27 138,839 --- 31 Dec '28 170,681 --- 21 Oct '29 200,000 --- 31 Dec '29 236,520 ---

Not great, but also not terrible. I do have around 5,000 HIVE lying around. I might choose to power that up this month since I'm not doing anything with it. I tend to leave a bit of liquid HIVE just in case I need to make a payment with my @zypto card - I can top up my visa card with HIVE and pay with my mobile phone - or so I can take some profit in case of a incredible run up in price to $1, which seems unlikely in the near future.

I could potentially pick some HIVE on the open market too. $0.08278 is a bargain. We'll see.

I'll also be manually curating authors that create content that is

The posts I vote on don't have to meet all criteria; just any one of the ones listed above with the highest weight given to the first category.

Stay amazing fellow freedomnauts! I wish you a great journey to independence.

Nice Journey, Alex. You will get to the 250k one day.

Yes. I believe so too. I still think the HIVE protocol provides useful freedomtools to communicate and exchange value. I don't know if it will gain enough popularity to be used by millions, but I'm willing to stick around to see if that happens. My 250K HP could be useful in that scenario. I could also just be left holding a bag. We'll see.

Same here. Still like it here.

Thank you. I'll get there someday.

I think it's important to have a large number of orcas on HIVE. We don't always have to agree, but we need to be able to choose witnesses, DAO proposals and encourage creators that add value to the ecosystem. Voter apathy can be a problem in DPoS systems. Active orcas are key.

The number of big accounts is rising right now. Maybe people are buying $HIVE whilst it's cheap. It ought to be worth a lot more.
