With so much going on, important things can slip my mind.
I will try not to forget. That's one reason for this post.

Another reason is to inspire real personal growth.
At least right now, if you wanted 2000 HP,
you can get it for around 123 HBD.

Increasing your Hive Power level lets you do more, helps increase your reputation, lowers your K/E, and signals that you are here for the long term. Yet lately, many proposals seem focused on spending rather than building lasting value-- risking a drift toward the very systems Hive set out to improve. How can we create value instead of simply extracting it?

Hive Power Up Day is an opportunity at the beginning of each month to ADD value to the Hive ecosystem. At 0.06 HBD per HIVE, this is about as good a deal as can be found. Opportunity is like a window and it can close, you have to make those moves when you can.

I remember when the price of our founding chain floated around 0.08 for a long time, people were calling it a scam, but I was happy just being able to stamp a bit of html into the blockchain and slowly earn power to do more stuff each day. Having spent hundreds if not thousands on Website hosting and Web domains without getting many views over the years, all of which are gone now, it becomes obvious to me that Hive is an upgrade for the old web with a built in global audience.

Spending more DHF funds on marketing schemes or projects aimed at attracting users with expectations of profit is unlikely to yield better results than we’ve already seen. Instead, can we focus on valuing what we have—strengthening our connections and building deeper understanding within the community? Can Hivvers do more to support one another by reading, engaging with, and rewarding the overlooked creators already here, rather than relying on the same familiar earners?

Thinking forward to how we can strengthen and support the value of the Hive token, perhaps through intelligent strategy, to ensure that this blog based blockchain can survive through 2027 and 2037, well into the future. I power up Hive each month because I believe in this world wide web.

And I believe my human meaningful efforts have value. This is my #ProofOfBrain

I will also use tomorrow to get one of these Bee Badges. Will be my 54th in a row I think.
