Today is Hive Power Up Day! 100 HIVE POWERUP!
Is HIve going to pop? Is it going to sink? Nobody knows! But what I do know is that it's the first day of the month and it's HIVE POWERUP DAY! I take 100 of my liquid HIVE and convert it into VESTS.
I became a dolphin yesterday and my VESTS just barely exceeded 10M. I just added a cool 21K VESTS to the stack. Whoo hoo!
This means every upvote I give, has a slightly higher reward and the curation rewards will be slightly higher as well. I remember when I got my first 100 HP (SP at the time), I was so excited! But when I learned that 500 HP would get me a vote slider, that quickly became my goal.
Put This HP to Good Use
As many know, I decided long ago that curation strategies were not my thing. I remember people saying "only five 100% votes per day", since then the VP would recharge back to 100%. On one hand, I would like to maximize my vote, but limiting it to only five votes per day seems stingy.
The strategy I've adopted is vote everything 100%, even comments, to show maximum appreciation. As a consequence of this, my VP is usually around 25 - 45%. I don't remember the last time my VP was at 100!
Currently, my 100% upvote is about $0.03 each. In theory, if I allowed my vp to recover, I could be handing out $0.11 votes!
So I think I'm going to allow my VP to recover some. At least get back over 50% or more. Depends on how well I control my upvoting habit!
What is your strategy for curation? How many upvotes per day? What percentage?

It took me almost a year of posting before I decided to begin powering up. I've only powered down once, and I regret the decision today. !ALIVE

Congrats on your dolphin status! I'm looking forward to minnow, myself. 😋
I like your approach to upvoting with 100%. I've been trying that but I can't seem to keep myself off of here and upvoting way more than I have the means for! Keep telling myself to take a break for a couple of days to let my RC recover, but then I find myself checking back in and here I am, upvoting again!
I'm a compulsive upvoter. That's why my vp is so low! !ALIVE

Congratulations on the power up and I try to keep my VP around 80% or so if I can. That was the number I heard that most people keep it around and decided to follow a similar pattern.

When you go under $0.03 remind the Upvotee to make sure their 'Dustsweeper' is primed and ready.

Oh yes! I'd hate to see those upvotes go to waste! Dustsweeper and dustbunny can both help.
