What is your Hive Power Strategy?

avatar

▶️ Watch on 3Speak

When I see all the shiny things where people can put their money in, I believe that staking Hive is maybe not the most attractive investment at the moment. However, I believe that we should all power up some hive. This is not only profitable for you but also for communities like Liotes. Watch the video to understand why...

The challenge of this week

This week we would like to know what your strategy is regarding Hive Power? How often do you power up? How much do you power up? Do you power down? Do you take part in the HPUD?

Write your answer as a comment below this post to take part in the Liotes Mission.

The Liotes Mission

By taking part in the Liotes missions, you can win credits that will help you to increase your score and your title in the Liotes Ranking.

People who submit an answer will get 4 credits for the Liotes ranking.

We are very grateful if you enter the challenge within 24 hours after the post is published. We will try to count entries up to 36 hours after publication.

I don't really have a strategy. Anymore. There have been a few periods where I set my author rewards to 100% power up but not these days. I've taken part in probably 3 HPUDs. I don't usually manually power up and I NEVER power down. I probably never will or at least not in the foreseeable future. If there weren't so many other opportunities/promotions/events/projects going on I would probably power up more.

Yeah... That is the biggest distraction... At the moment, I'm very tempted to put more Hive into the Polycub, but I will probably not do it... Yes, the APR is bigger, but there are some risks involved and I like to diversify... :)

Hive Power up with a "100% HP Reward" post every day and participate in PUM (5 months streak). Powering down? Hmmm not yet... Idk why do I need to power down 🤔

I'm delegating my Hive Powers in Hive dlease to increase my Hive balance to withdraw 😜

Can you explain the PUM in short lines? Is it powering up every day of the week, or keeping 100% HP rewards, or...?

PUM is between these two things:

  1. Post every day with "100% HP Rewards" and be sure it'll get a minimum amount to get the reward
    OR
  2. Power up every day with your HIVE (I forget the minimum amount for this one)

Do one of the activity every day in one month and you'll get PUM (Power Up Month) badge.

Since the price of Hive is very low, take this opportunity to save some more.
Currently I am Hive Power Up every day.
Didn't participate in HPUD this time, not enough 10 HIVE.
Have a great day.

I just did my HPUD post a little while ago. I powered up 214 hive for todays HPUD, I try to do it every month while I still can. Soon I will not qualify to do it anymore but after that I will still be powering up Hive as well as adding to my HBD savings at the same time.

I am still about 1k HP short of reaching Dolphin and even after that I would like for my voting power to be much higher. The more you have the faster you earn it so I plan on stacking it up for a long time to come.

I personally keep any HIVE from at least ONE post a day fully powered up and I've not powered down a single time at all since I started about 6 months ago.

I intend to keep it that way till I reach my very lofty goal of 100k HP 😄.

HBD is usually converted into swap.hive or vice versa depending on the rates (recent weeks have it fluctuating up and down making for a good chance to make some extra hive).

I was Powering Down late last year when Hive was $1 to invest in a few other things on Hive; MuTerra, Splinterlands, and Ragnarok. I'm back to Powering up again now though. I participate in HPUD when I have at least 10 Hive ready to Power up, but usually, I forget and power everything up as soon as I'm able to lol. !LUV

My strategy is pretty simple 50% Hive Power and 50% other Hive initiatives that I fund with HBD.

My strategy at the moment is to take out HIVE POWER to start another business and to recover it little by little with the publications, since at the moment you can earn a lot of HP for each publication.

I don't really have a strategy for my hive power. Just want to get to 1k then 2k and beyond. I power up only on the first of every month. Sometimes I power up 10, most times more. I've been doing hpud every month since November last year I think. And I've never powered down before.

When I started with 10 Hive power, I had the objective to get 11, then 100, then 1000, then 2000... it's a strategy that works very well. To always aim then next step on the path.

I just accumulate my Hive Power when they come in from my posts. For now, I am keeping around 85-90% for myself and delegating around 10-15% to @liotes.voter. Will think a bit more when my HP gets larger. Hehe!

It's good to keep the main part of your Hive power to curate so that you can actually generate curation rewards but of course it's also great if you delegate to liotes.voter ;-)

I power-up on first of every month and participate in #HivePUD.
The amount depends on how much liquid hive i accumulate in the month, and it varies.

Currently, i have set 100% power-up for my posts, so payouts are powered-up automatically.

I have not done a simple powerdown in the 2+ years i am on hive.

I am in accumulation mode and my goal is to reach dolphin by end of this year.

This is a very good question for everyone to think about. I power up hive on an hourly basis. Not me personally but I subscribed to a program that does it for me. My strategy is to grow my account and increase my hive power so that I can have a higher voting value to curate with to support members of our community. As for the Hive Power Up Day, this will be my tenth consecutive month to participate. I approach it as a challenge to save up enough extra hive during the month and then power it up on the 1st. I have never powered hive down and my account is too small currently to consider it. Take care.

Sorry I miss stated. It is the auto claim of author and curation rewards and since it is paid 50% Hive Power and 50%HBD the hive automatically is added to my hive power when claimed.

My current focus is to build up hive power, but some community tokens are also crucial so I allocate a % to hive engine.

I have a stake in a lot of HE tokens but many of them have quite a disapointing evolution behind them. So I concentrate mainly on a very few selected ones apart from hive and hbd.

Strategy? I have already mentioned that I do not write for LeoFinance because I am not good at finance. My main focus here is to write blogs about what is happening to me in different areas, especially in the visual media. The strategy is simple: the more I write and create, the more Hive Power I have. The more quality work I do (read - the more people will consume it), the more Hive Power I'll have.
I'm in Liotes for one simple reason, because I believe in this community, both @ph1102 and @achim03 are experts in tokenomics (which is, I think, a new discipline of economics as a science), and I, I have to admit, don't understand it very well. 😎
Also, I regularly (if I have free Hive coins), once a month ( HPUD), power up myself.

The great thing about hive is that we don't have to be big investors to build up a nice stake. You build it up with your work creating content and the more you work, the more return you will get. It's a very coherent strategy and you won't be mislead by all the shiny tokens that others fomo into :-)

Ok but if compared to me you're genious 😎 from the other point of view, who' s the expert? There's not many succesfull tokens on HE. LEN is going well, regarding to your balancing, right. So, I can conclude, that you're, at least, microexpert 😜

My strategy is to grow through curation, power up on every Power Up Day, and buy chunks when I have some free fiat and the price is right. My goal is to hit Orca level by the end of the year and I'm only about 2/3 of the way there so far so I've got about 20k more to accumulate. If prices stay around here for a while, I might have a chance, but if they start climbing again, it's going to be tough.

I never power down so everything I add gets me that much closer. The problem is, as you and so many others have pointed out, there are just so many opportunities right now it's almost impossible to just focus on one thing. From #PsyberX to #LEO to #PolyCUB to regular #CUB to #Splinterlands to #Bitcoin to...you get the point. I'm trying to stay somewhat committed to growing HIVE but it's tough. I'm hoping to skim some profits from other places over the next few months to make a couple leaps but...you never know what the markets are going to do.

At the same time as I'm trying to grow my HP, I'm also trying to build an HBD position. My mid-range goal is to get to $24k which would pay $400/month in interest assuming we stay at 20%. Short term is $3000 for $50/month. But that $3000 could buy a bunch of all those other things I mentioned so...

I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing and building as I go. I'll continue to power up HIVE monthly and add more when I can. I've committed to adding HBD monthly as well and I'll be growing the other pieces at different times as well.

Probably more than you wanted to read but...there it is. :-)

It's great to see you evolving towards Orca level and I totally understand what you mean by having all these nice shiny tokens out there that divert our focus :-)

My mid-range goal is to get to $24k which would pay $400/month in interest assuming we stay at 20%

I also try to build a HBD stake so that I can pull a return from the interests. I have now about 7.5K and it already pays an interesting amount every month. This is a kind of piggy bank for my kids to finance their studies at a later stage :-)

Hello!

My strategy so far has been to power up everything I can. Only a couple of months ago I started keeping some of the liquid HBD in savings to take advantage of the 20% APR.

Since last November, I have participated in all the Hive PUDs and many of the PUMs. I'm focusing now on growing my account. And I have never done a Power Down.

By the way, I will try to do PUM this month :)

And we have a great opportunity in the time being with the Hive prices to grow our account faster in the meantime, so we shouldn't miss the chance.

For the most part I don't power up besides the auto power up that happens from posts and comments. It's already hard enough trying to get liquid hive lol and locking up the little liquid I get for 13 weeks isn't something I really want to do anymore.

However there are times when the price changes like we are at now at $0.50 where I'll sell some other assets that are doing well for hive and power a majority of that up instead. So it's random based on a number of factors. For me every day is a power up day and HPUD is just another one of those days.

Wow this is great although I didn't come across it on time but I always wish to have alot of hive tokens to power up.
I love the idea of investing hive tokens in the HP and for some reasons it looks quite difficult to earn tokens as a newbie. Lol.
But never the less I'll keep doing my best on that.

I haven't generally been focused that much on HP until recently. As I would earn HIVE from various activities, I would split it between powering up and transferring it to Hive Engine to use elsewhere. However, within the past few weeks, I have begin to automagically deposit a small amount of my paycheck into my crypto account. As I started moving that to my HIVE account, I sought out some wise council (@jongolsen and @taskmaster4450) who enlightened me to the benefits of growing my HP first. By doing that, I not only have a larger upvote, but I also can choose to delegate to other accounts (like @liotes.voter) that will provide dividends in other tokens.

I don't generally participate in HPUD because I don't see the benefit of waiting until a specific day when I could be putting those funds to use quicker. If there was a legitimate (by that I mean financial) upside to it (that I may not be aware of), I might reconsider.

As far as powering down, that is not currently in my vocabulary. I am in invest mode to build for the future. I do not invest anything I can't afford to lose and I am working to build toward my retirement (which I hope to experience in the next five to ten years, if not sooner).

Well, there is no specific (financial) benefit of doing it on HivePUD, except prizes that you can win, if you are eligible...

Personally, I'm doing it on that specific date to "keep myself accountable", but also to be part of the "movement", and inspire others to do the same...

I do not invest anything I can't afford to lose and I am working to build toward my retirement (which I hope to experience in the next five to ten years, if not sooner).

That's a good plan! I'm trying to do something similar as I'm not a believer in pension funds and my "government care for elders..." :)
