PowerUp Day ๐ช Delegation Giveaway
๐จ๐งจ๐ฅ Engagement is Required โโ
๐ Always wanted to give this one a try...
On this PowerUp giveaway, I am doing a mini-game picture "guess the location where it was taken from" challenge until the end of this post curation, and I will be rewarding the winner with a one-year delegation! That's how comfortable I am with this.
How much, you ask? Well, two things, first, I am going to start splitting the rewards I use for giveaways, because that is getting confusing and not transparent enough in terms of how much I am publicly exposing from my support into giveaways. Secondly, because I want people to have an account that they can share with others and transparently see how much is at stake for these kinds of things.
So, I have created , where 50% of this post beneficiary is going to. ALL that reward will be the prize reward of the challenge winner, for 1 year. Including the announcement post I have just done.
So, yep, if you want to support what I do, please share among (especially) your friends and web2 socials. Best of luck with this challenge! (Note, don't forget about the regular ATX giveaway ๐ฅ)
Right... the photo?
(Note, this is a real photo taken with an iPhone 16 device, although the Apple software already does some AI modifications on the damn photos, which is horrible to just realise)
The closest guess (post map coordinates or draw locations on it) will win the price of whatever curation the gets for 1 year. The closest guess will be announced after this post curation.
One tip for the audience... It's in New Zealand ๐คฃ
๐ง Reminder on the ATX Influence ๐
Don't forget that by the end of the year, your ATX prizes on this event will depend on how much ATX you have staked. Aka, if you are, for example, winning in 7 days a 5k HP delegation, you will need in 2027 to hold 5k ATX staked. Otherwise, you will win only up to how much you have staked.
So, if you are entitled to a 5k HP delegation and have only 1k ATX staked, you will only win 1k HP delegation. The minimum 1k HP delegation will still be the minimum provided... but if you are entitled 1001 HP and have not 1001 ATX staked, you will only win 1k HP delegation.
My best advice for those interested is to keep some of the ATX in the pool while you gain some rewards, and once you need to stake it, remove some from the pool and stake it before the end of the year.
You might have also noticed that the beeswap website is not working anymore... that's right. I need to redo my posts about how to use pools. You can use two places at the moment (that I know of):
All the pools from Hive Engine are there. I don't yet have a preference, as I am VERY biased by the old BeeSwap functionality. But if I can influence, I will in due time.
๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น๏ธ GAMES Games GAAAMMMESS!!
It has passed sooo much time since I provided some information in this section. TODAY is the time!
I have been playing/trying some simple new games that people have brought into Hive. I am really happy to see this trend again, and also because some of the people developing these games, are actually people who, in the past, thought not being able to do such feats without incurring lots of costs.
Well, AI changed that! And I am here to show their feats!
Let's start...
https://play.dungeoncities.com
This is a simple game of fighting creatures in a dungeon, straight, left and right kind of thing, where your character's health, stamina and defence/damage items do the job of making sure you can progress through harder levels. The harder it gets, the bigger rewards you get in order to buy better items and equip your character better.
I really like the simplicity, and even if I am still exploring it, I am still motivated to play it, even after a week. I am not sure if you get any externalised rewards for playing it, but that's not the point for me.
Playing it daily to take advantage of the stamina regeneration is a simple way to motivate the players, so that's a very well done mechanics.
Next...
https://www.mydempire.com
This one made me recall dCity (and I don't know who the actual owner is, to be honest), but you can address him/her via the account or through the Discord channel they provide via the game page.
This is a "decentralised" game (hence the D on the game name) where you build, upgrade and trade factories/NFTs to get a share of the economy everyone is participating in.
It's based on Hive Layer 1 only, so it does not depend on any other second-layer chain. You get rewards in the form of HIVE and also use HIVE as a form of purchasing/investing power.
The routine in this game might depend on how many factories you have. Given that the more you have, the higher the amount of work you will need to keep them operating. This is a game that should not matter when you try it... There is no such thing as the first ones will win more, given its large timespan of about 1000 days of rewards (with 0.1% emission).
It's still being developed and is in its early stages, so if you like it, make sure you provide feedback on the Discord or associated Hive account.
Finally! (Note, I haven't had much time to try many others I know, but there are WAY more games around than just these. If you know me, you know I know this, but please let me know if you think I haven't checked a particular one you know of).
https://horizonforge-production.up.railway.app
Developed by , and for a long time, a very easy to get you hooked game. Beware! You got warned. Still being actively developed but playable among the Hive community, either via combating the AI or against other players. Happy to get challenged if you are looking for a player (use
account to challenge me).
In this game, you play with characters that have specific advantages and combat powers to counter the enemy. It's a turn-based fight (with a timer for decisions), and I would say, if played with time (my suggestion), as in, the quicker one can play, the more power the characters can become, it can become even more interesting (maybe add that one as another mode). Sort of how chess works... when using time.
And just to beat the ones that think I didn't try this game enough to be a great challenger... here is some proof!
Provide feedback as usual! WELL DONE, my friend! You are a live example of "using AI can change your life", and I am all here to help you get moving! I will keep testing and making suggestions as I see development. Never give up, mate!
That's it for now (games-wise). I will try to bring new things every month, and I think that might actually be easier than I thought. Not that I have always had the brains to write this much, but I should try at least. And you guys be the judge of the quality.
๐บ BEER time
The week was crazy, actually, the last few weeks have been CRAZY! Very little BEER drunk, and many hours under intense keyboard madness, troubleshooting sessions, meetings and vendors' logistics shenanigans.
But that's IRLW stuff I don't want to bore you with. Aside from it, we might be witnessing a new way more robust Hive API front end by the looks of it. I have done a few tests and still have to understand a few more things, but it's looking promising.
has released their FRICKING amazing NEWS, and you can now swap Bitcoin/HBD and HIVE without exchanges! Fricking nuts if you think about it. No KYC, no need to trust exchanges. Pure freedom of cryptocurrency technology, and way more to come in the following times. Let me know any questions if you have any. I am still due to a promised video of how to swap/add things into pools there, and I haven't forgotten that, but I am waiting for some aesthetic fixes before I get there with the quality I intend.
I am also passing 110k HP on this #HPUD, so pretty stoked about it... If you want to (and can) take advantage of the very low prices, make sure you power up some Hive.
( https://www.snapie.io/@forykw/wallet )
The importance is not ONLY the price, is also to teach one another and to foster learning practices about Hive and accompany that person's experience. Making sure YOU (yes, that's our value in this network) are contributing to that new Hiveian experience and future participation on this huge decentralised community.
If we all want that, the value of this cryptocurrency we call Hive would be astronomical. So yeah, keep in mind that what you do makes the value. It's not only, but it's a great deal of it.
Hence, why you should vote for witnesses, proposals, and actively validate things on the chain. Being here for free money is going to be as ridiculous as becoming a slave one day. Don't be a slave! Be free instead.

That's it, 10 minutes of reading time should be easy to digest... I never know how far I should go with long-form content because I am more of a short content person. I am also a "images" person, so let me know if you need more or less images... I will leave you with a peculiar one, in case you needed some more saliva in your life! ๐คฃ๐๐คค
Yes! This is a Donut (or Doughnut)!
