Well, it only took me a totally different blockchain, but I finally hit 10K SP or rather HP I should say. 10K was a goal I had set for myself a long time ago.
Most of that is all self earned too, which makes it even more special. I did invest some money into the platform when the price was over $1. My main goal was to get myself to 500 SP so I could get that slider bar to expand my voting power.
I have to be honest, I didn't think it would take this long for me to reach the 10k goal. We all know crypto can be a fickle friend and things don't always go the way we plan. It does make me a little sad that I wasn't able to reach that goal on Steem. Sure, I could keep posting on Steem and probably hit that goal within the next couple of months, but honestly, I am really excited about Hive, and I want to focus the majority of my attention there.
Ever since I learned about blockchain, I have been a big believer in it's potential. In fact, it is only recently that I started my first ever powerdown. These past two years I have been constantly building my account without taking any SP out of it.
I want to say my next goal is to hit a reputation of 71, but the truth is, that may happen after this post, so I don't really feel like that is too challenging of a goal. Instead, the next goal I am going to set for myself is 15k HP and I am hoping that I can achieve that by the end of this year. I know it will take a lot of hard work and potentially catching the eye of a Orca or two. I have faith in my content though, I am pretty sure I can accomplish my goal.
I really feel like the sky is the limit with Hive and the more that we invest into the platform now, the better off we will be in the future. Think about what Steem evolved to in just the last two years. Now, since Hive is using that as a starting point, it is hard telling what Hive is going to look like a year from now. The one thing I do know, is that it is going to be awesome!
