4x Dolphin Payouts Milestone

Hi fellow Hiveians,

Today I wanted to appreciate hitting a nice little milestone for post, comment and curation reward payout: 20k Hive Power!

4x Dolphin Payouts Milestone

Now I know it's not exactly 4x dolphin status, as dolphin is about 5,600 Hive Power these days give or take a few dozen Hive Power but it's pretty darn close! I don't check the Hive Buzz notifications often, as it's largely things that don't mind me too much like distributing 150k votes or receiving 3,000 replies or whatever. They are cool stats overall but not something I'm chasing all the time.

If I get a notification from Hive Buzz on a post that others have commented on, while I'm scrolling through the post to reply to comments I will check out what I achieved there and I was pleasantly surprised at this one! I've earned 20,000 Hive Power as payout for my posts, comment rewards and curation rewards combined! Damn that's a crazy milestone for me!

I remember not too long ago aiming to achieve 20,000 Hive Power as my goal for the year 2 years ago and I luckily achieved that, and now we are here 2.5 years later and I've received 20,000 Hive Power overall as my payout for the various rewards I've generated. That's insane! What that also means is that I'm sitting at around 30.8k Hive Power as of the writing of this post, so I also powered up over the time I've been on the (Steem) Hive Blockchain about 11k Hive Power! That's a little over 50% of my rewards which is wild. I know not all of it has come from exchanging my HBD for Hive and powering it up, I was able to generate a few thousand Hive from selling various things over time but I sure as shit powered that stuff up!

What has been really a fun thing for me over this whole time is the increased ability that I have to distribute votes and rewards to folks out there, without going crazy at dropping my voting power or strength. Keeping my votes at 10-15% and distributing them all over the place has been pretty darn cool, and as time goes on the strength of that fluctuates in value of course, but it's usually around .05$ for that vote which isn't bad at just dropping 10%! Quite a large number of people are doing that at 100% so I know I'm certainly lucky and fortunate to have accumulated a pretty decent stake up to this point that I use to hook other people up with some rewards.

A nice thing over that timeframe as well is that the rewards have increased at a bit of a faster rate than before and that's largely due to the curation rewards. I'm averaging 7 Hive Power per day in curation rewards these days which is phenomenal to me, I remember when I was excited to earn 2 a day. Seeing it up to 7 and slowly increasing over time is wild! I know that eventually it will get to 10, which is a personal milestone for me, and I can imagine how quicker things will go at that point. At 10 Hive Power per day, 365 days a year, that's 3.65k a year in just curation rewards, not considering rewards on posts or even the inflation that Hive has right now.

At the ~7 HP per day that I'm getting, I've been incredibly fortunate to round out the last 30 days with 213 HP in total curation rewards, nearly making it to 550 HP for the timeframe. I know that some may not really care but for me those are some pretty wild numbers.

I still have screenshots of my account in the very early days of when I started on this blockchain back in 2018, where I was at literally 0.01 Hive Power (called Steem power at the time) and my account was worth 0$ lol. I was just planning on getting a few hundred Hive here and there and seeing what I could do with it. Luckily I fell in love with the platform and the people and decided that this was going to be not only an investment for me but for the people around me. When we all grow together, we all prosper together and I'm a big proponent of generosity being spread around to the folks around. I think it's also important for me that I've never powered down any of the Hive that I've accumulated, other than when we switched platforms after the hard fork but that was powering down the old stuff in favor of the new.

It's going to be fun to think of what things will look like for me in another 10,000 Hive Power for my post, comment and curation reward payout. That would mean I would be somewhere over 40,000 Hive Power staked to my account! Damn that's wild to think about, hell even 30,000 is wild to think about when I reflect on my time here lol. I remember seeing people with 30k Hive Power and thinking "damn, that's so much!!! I will take forever to get there!~" and here I am, a few lucky swaps and things later, celebrating such a milestone. Fun times, and I know we all appreciate growing together!

Dude congrats!!! This is an awesome milestone for you individually, but also an inspiration for newer ones like me. I remember setting milestones at 1k HP and later at 2k HP, both of which I’ve now achieved. It’s cool to see how it grows on itself after a while, although of course I’ve not yet reached those dizzying heights. I’m making like 20H / month off of my HBD savings now though, and for me that’s a real thrill!

Personally, I powered down once to m pay a bill and check that this is all real, but after that I’m with you, I the only way to power…is UP! All liquid above I move straight to HP - it just makes more sense that way. Nice post brother, and congratulations again on this awesome achievement!

That's awesome man, I know you'll be making great progress, you're already faster than I was at getting to 2k HP. I don't think I got to 2k until closer to my third year on the platform lol

That's funny and cool that you powered some down to see if you could pay a bill, I think that's great. It's like a pinch to make sure these things are real haha. I may do that one of these days just to see!

I’m looking forward to growing right along with you man!

LOL - my speed wasn’t organic, I was buying hive at a pretty aggressive rate for a while. Actually that’s probably got a lot to do with why I wanted to make sure I would be able to get it back out 🤣

You make a good point there, on the whole “try it for myself someday” thing - I should have done screenshots and posted that, I think people really like seeing posts about the utility of the blockchain, so something of that nature might be cool for newer users to see. Oh well, guess I’ll have to say la vi cuz I’m not doing it again anytime soon!

Is there a post somewhere or instructions on SBI? I agree with you, I want to spread what I can to help others grow, and this seems like a really cool way to do it but I’m still pretty confused as to how it all works. In any case, I totally agree about building up those around us who make this place feel like a community…I guess that’s why it’s called Hive mentality!

La vi!! …there I said it :)

You are welcome @cmplxty 👋🏻😊
Thank you so much.
Hehehe 🤭 Spain?
I moved in the last 6 months twice… first we moved from Spain to Scotland… and last May we had to move to Ireland 🇮🇪 after the UK refused my residency… so I have been enjoying a mild and wet summer 😋 and been rather busy busy
Have an awesome Tuesday!

Congratulations, one thing I know about hive is that all the collective efforts usually add up. I'm 56k currently and hoping to hit 57k to achieve orca, these milestones have a way of making us feel fulfilled. Just like you, I exchanged a lot of tokens and external coin just to power up hive though. Congratulations again. I'm always looking forward to hivebuzz's notification.

That's awesome man, I know you'll hit or a very soon, probably within the month. It's great to see someone from Nigeria with such a good stake in the platform, I know you've likely made sacrifices to do it but it's great you haven't sold everything you make the way some do. Keep up the great work yourself man!

I'm really impressed by how you've used your Hive Power to support other users on the platform. You've shown that you're not just interested in accumulating wealth for yourself, but in helping others grow and succeed as well.

I'm excited to see what you accomplish in the future. You're clearly a talented and dedicated user, and I'm sure you'll continue to achieve great things.

Thanks man! I appreciate the kind words. I try to spread things as much as I can, while at the same time keeping my account growing. These digital assets are long term plans for me, not short term so I’m trying to maximize what I can as much as I can!
