So it's mid-month already, huh! And that goes to say it's LPUD time where the lions roar. Well, obviously not all but at least those who are committed to growing their LEO stakes.
Participating in Leo Power Up Day is a great boost if I may say so. It's a community event that is not only fun but also shows the strength of the people within it. I read sometime ago that Leo Finance is where users with diamond hands reside. The history of the community's power up from since LPUD started somehow proves that it is absolutely true. Add to that, the 73% of total staked LEO is something already.
And perhaps it's worth mentioning that those who already have large stakes are stacking up more. Do they know some secrets that we don't?
Hmmm...
Anyway, for an overview here was last week's stats of the top 10 accounts that staked the most LEO. I mean, why do they keep staking as much? Again, that's something to think about.
Personally, the reasons for growing my Leo Power are simple, re:
- I'm here to stay. Vesting LEO is my way of reminding myself to look at the long-term.
- Staking is also my way of saving (with benefits) - keeping my LEO safe and still able to earn more rewards from it by curating. Hopefully one day, this is going to be a source of passive income for me.
- Then there's the chance of sharing from the LeoAds revenue buybacks. When? Only Khal has the answer to that and he'd most likely say soon!
- Lastly, I love collecting the LPUD badge.😅
And yep, I also like what Leo Finance is building and I'm obviously enjoying threads so don't get tired seeing me there, lol!
Anyhow, for today's participation, I powered up LEO, which brought my total stakes to 20,760.
If I would be honest, seeing 20k Leo Power on my account was far from my grasp even when I was already active here in the community. But guess what? Some people did inspire me to do something about it. And for that, I'm utterly grateful.
20k Leo Power, yay!
I'm celebrating for reaching such a seemingly impossible milestone, which consequently got me a lot closer to my year-end goal. Speaking of which, here's how the numbers are looking so far this week:
Leo Power
- Previous (Week 27): 19,723 LP
- Current (Week 28): 20,760 LP
That's 5% growth in the last 7 days. Most of the LEO were the liquid from my main account, others from various sources, re: delegation, curation, threads and/or posts rewards. I have not been consistent with my long-form posting on this alt but I'm still threading. That's the real game-changer application for me to be honest.
Hive Power
- Previous (Week 27): 1,696 HP
- Current (Week 28): 1,745 HP
There's an increase of 49 Hive Power for the week which is still a 2.88% growth. Most of my HP are delegated to a few accounts so the delegation rewards are also adding up and it helps.
The journey to growing and staking both HIVE and LEO will continue for sure. I don't see any reason to stopping anytime soon.
Here's to a roaring LPUD!
