Hive Power Up Day - January 1st 2026: New Year New Start

Hi all, it is the 1st of January 2026, a new year is upon us and what a year 2025 it had been. And because it is also the 1st of the month, it is Hive Power Up Day! 2025 had been an amazing year. As we reset the year and regroup on the fatigue after a season of recharge, let's continue to get it going for 2026.

I have participated in Hive Power Up Day since October 2022, the journey since then had been nothing less than awesome. I still remembered how I started with 315HP back then when I first participated in this Power Up initiative. From that month on, on every month running, I would try my best to take part and show my support to the blockchain. Hive is a very unique block chain made up of various communities and interest groups. This blockchain is filled with massive amount of knowledge and expertise which is made available to the community and also for public to learn more about each others hobbies, expertise and also celebrate togetherness in sharing music, games and all things in life. With an array of amazing content available for self enriching, personal development/growth and all, the blockchain had also developed into a lifestyle for many.

Hive Power Up Day, What is it?
Hive Power Up Day occurs on the first day of each month where the community come together to stake their Hive to become Hive Power. Through this, our account gets powered up!

Power Up?
By powering up our account, what does it bring?

• Increase our influence in the block chain, in terms of voting power on content, witnesses and proposals
• With a much higher Hive Power, we get more curation rewards and improve our earnings.
• Passive earning of 3% per annum

My Power Up for January 2026
At start of today this is the amount of Hive/Hive Power I have:

Let's add some power!!

Hive Power Up Month December 2025

My growth in HP in the the month of December for 2025 manage to gathered me 1075 HP. Slightly higher than what I had in November and I am really glad for this strong HP gain in the month.

This growth is a propelling force as I further solidify myself on the blockchain and gain more influence. Primary goal for 2025 had been achieved crossing the 18000 HP mark but unfortunately the secondary goal that I set was a little too farfetched of attempting to get 20000 HP.

As we start 2026, time to come up with a goal for 2026 as I will be sharing soon in another post.

And from a long hiatus of sickness, fatigue and all, I finally manage to achieve hive power up month once again for December 2025.

While on hive buzz the power up month badge is greyed out, I saw from a post that I have successfully achieved Hive Power Up Month for December 2025.

Concluding
It is always a pleasure to be able to participate in Hive Power Up Day and show my support. Wishing everyone an amazing 2026 ahead and thank you to everyone whom had given me your support in 2025.

I am still working in the background to enable some form of passive earning to fund the next Hive Power Day, it might not be able to fund sufficiently right now for even 1 Hive per month, but with consistency I am putting in to build up of what I am doing, I am certain one day it will be able to fund the base requirement for the power up day! Right now while everything is still rather low in terms of passive hive gains, some parts of the power up is from the passive while the bulk still came from sources such as comment rewarder, liquid hive selling layer 2 token etc. No matter how, I will continue to improve my passive liquid hive generation so that I can have enough to power up every month. The method is changing a little with dCity coming to a close and implosion of some other income generating coins.

I'll see you here next month as we continue growing throughout the year. Once again, Happy HPUD and have a great day everyone!
