Hi Friends
Today, I have reached over 2500 Hive Power which was the next milestone for me on HIVE. I have been a member of HIVE for almost six years. Considering this period, I should have had much more HP may not be very important, but I have reached my goals step by step. I think it is important in terms of motivation and consistency. For sure, I have not done this period, which is more than five years old membership, to the fullest. I had dropped by HIVE from time to time and shared some posts until the middle of 2021, but I have never left HIVE.
I had about 590 Hive Power in August of 2021. From August on, my activity on HIVE has increased gradually by posting, upvoting and commenting on posts thanks to @ecency DApp. Meanwhile, we have started to be active on HIVE again together with some friends in our Hive Türkiye Discord channel. As a result of the developments in Turkish Community, the @trliste curation trail has started to be active again after three years and has started to support posts written in Turkish with tr tag. Nevertheless, the number of people writing in the Turkish Community has decreased considerably after the earthquake disaster in February 2023. In summer months, I could not be active on the Discord channel and I could share few posts on HIVE for some reasons. I can say that the TR Community is back to its old days again, TR HIVE PUD and TR Liset activities have been going on very efficiently.
2022 was the year in which I shared the most posts, read the most posts, upvoted the most posts, received the most upvotes, commented on the most posts, and received the most comments on HIVE. I still try to keep going this way. I will find out soon if I have been able to do more in 2023. Besides, I have started to participate in HIVE TR Power Up Day event since November 2023. Due to the winter months, I have started to become more active on HIVE. This time it took shorter to achieve the goal. Just as it requires effort to achieve something in life, it also requires effort to grow your account on HIVE. If it wasn't for the Ecency DApp, perhaps I wouldn't be this much active on HIVE and wouldn’t be able to achieve my goals as well.
I see HIVE as a long-term investment. For this reason, I regularly power up the HIVE I receive from author and curation rewards. As for HBD, I have long been transferring HBD into the saving account since the interest rate was increased to 20%. It sounds very reasonable to me for now to receive 20% annual interest payout for an instrument whose value is almost equal to 1 USD. If the annual interest rate of HBD is decreased, I will definitely convert some of them to HIVE and increase my voting power. Besides, I set a new goal for myself to accumulate much more HBD. After reaching my goal of accumulating 1000 HBD, I could convert my HBD interest payout to HIVE and increase HIVE Power. What is written here about HIVE and HBD is not a financial advice.
I have never drawn neither HIVE nor HBD from my wallet and used them for any other purpose. There might be people who need this income from HIVE; however, I am in favor of powering up HIVE rewards up to a specific goal for a stronger account and the community. I would say this goal should be at least 7500 HP, considering the current HIVE price.
I would like to thank those who supported me through this period, firstly on behalf of TR Community; @trliste, @tarazkp, @meesterboom, @ericvancewalton, @phortun, @olga.maslievich, @geekgirl, @bluemoon, @brian.rrr, @antisocialist, @ph1102, @lordbutterfly, @revisesociology, @cryptospa, @traciyork, @torem-di-torem, @borepstein, @slobberchops, @pele23, @zekepickleman, @jongolson, @taskmaster4450le and the whole HIVE family.
My next goal is to reach 2750 Hive Power. May everyone achieve their goals on HIVE, thank you for reading.
