HIVE is an interesting place. There are always things to do here.
Powering up HIVE has been bitter sweet.
There are lots of pros to having more HP. Stake weight does matter here and the more stake you have, the bigger influence you have on the chain.
Your relationship with the chain does change with the more HP you have. I never really expected that. I am happy I bought the HIVE I did. Having more HP is a big reason why my TradFi community is so successful. Having more HP is a big reason why I get so much engagement on this platform.
Voting is an incentive. Having more HP means you can you can use your vote power to influence the type of content people write about. Having more HP and upvoting comments means more people want to engage with you. HP doesn’t achieve all this by itself but it does help quite a bit if you want to do things here. I’m biased, but I believe HIVE does have a lot of use cases.
I didn’t time my HIVE buys perfectly, but I’m happy I powered up when I did. I really am happy to be here. I truly believe people who are not on the HIVE platform are missing out.
Powering up as much HIVE as I did has been a con though because I miss playing video games with the people I’m friendly with on here. I miss having long philosophical conversations with other Hivians on Discord. I just don’t have the time I used to. But I do miss you guys and many of you know who you are. I’m guessing many of you miss me too. I’m sorry so much has changed with me. But I do think me powering up was the right thing for me to do. I do think it was the right time for me to power up and for me to play a bigger role in the ecosystem.
Right now, I mostly look forward to continuing the TradFi community while also taking a step back and focusing on having fun on HIVE.
Part of me having fun will be playing Moon again. I have already started to build Large Cargos to fleet save. It took me a while but I finally cleared up all my messages. Looks like people have been benefited a lot from farming my planets while I was inactive. 😅
This isn’t a new chapter but just another day on HIVE. HIVE is an interesting place and there are always things to do here. I look forward to meeting more interesting people all over the world. I look forward to continue being a Hivian.
I’m happy I powered up HIVE.
