Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Happy New Year and January HPUD! My powerup today would have been immensely larger if the fiat-dollar price of HIVE would have dipped into the $0.08 range during the 13 days that I was waiting to swap my big chunk of HBD for HIVE, which it did not, so my HBD went back into Savings for at least another month. While my powerup today is quite a bit more modest than I'd hoped, it's still larger than my usual HPUD powerups, thanks to winning 500 HIVE in one of the last savings challenges for the Saturday Savers Club (sadly after 5 years of operation, it has ended). So to celebrate my participation in this long-standing monthly Hive tradition, I just powered up 746.363 HIVE! This New Year powerup has brought me to the new total of 16,064.372 Hive Power, which is a pretty nice place to start the year!
After my December HPUD powerup, I had 14,889.460 HP, which means that I gained a very substantial +1,174.912 HP in a month's time! This is +634.329 HP more than I gained the month before, with most of it coming from the 500 HIVE that I won. Not too shabby at all!
This is my 29th HPUD participation in total, and my 27th consecutive HPUD participation, so my streak continues! It would be quite interesting to see the total amount of HIVE that I've powered up for all of my HPUDs. Perhaps I'll look into collecting that imformation soon.
With my new total of 16,064.372 Hive Power, I should now receive 34.806-51.406 HP monthly in passive income, based on a 2.60-3.84% APR. At the moment the APR is much closer to the higher end of the spectrum, because the fiat-dollar price of HIVE is so low, which means more rapid HP growth.
Have you powered up some HIVE (10 minimum) for the January HPUD yet? If you have already, congratulations on your investment in your increasing power, influence, and future on the Blockchain! If you haven't had the opportunity to power up some HIVE for HPUD yet, it's OK, no worries, as there are still a few hours left to participate! May the Hive Power be with you, my friends! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
