Hard to believe, but one week from today (on November 1st, 2020), the next Hive Power Up Day will be here! In fact, the @hivebuzz countdown timer has already started ticking down the minutes - be sure to check it out HERE. How the hezmana is October already almost over?

And since @streetstyle continues to be AFK (away from keyboard), I'm stil running his initiative in his absence, as well as sending good thoughts in his direction and hoping we hear from him soon that all is well.

We had some cool changes a couple months ago, like the merging of #hivepud with the Spanish #hpud initiative, as well as some AMAZING new badges for Power Up Day courtesy of the @hivebuzz team. This month, in addition to some rumored additional awesomeness from Hive Buzz (as mentioned at the end of their feedback post last month, I'm happy to say we have a few new prizes in the pool!

Now, to get on with all the details...

On the first day of the month...

• ...we ask that everyone who can do so, power up any amount of HIVE they are holding on the first of the month.

• ... we ask accounts that are currently powering down to please pause the powerdown during the hours of the first of the month.

• ... we ask that those who are trading and/or selling Hive, not to do so during the hours of the first of the month (and if possible, cancel any type of sell order on any exchanges for the same hours).

For those who have done Power Up Day in the past, please be aware these requirements changed a bit starting with the September 1st 2020 PUD, so please read carefully:

 

If you have 1000 HIVE Power already powered up prior to NOVEMBER 1, and on NOVEMBER 1 you complete steps 1-4 with a 100 HIVE Power Up,

and

another HIVE member has 300 HIVE Powered up prior to NOVEMBER 1, and on NOVEMBER 1st Powers Up 60 HIVE Coin, then this 2nd user would be winning with a 20% power up versus the first example with a bigger power up but smaller percentage of only 10% based on their account.

I know this is kind of old news by now, but I thought it was worth including again this month. Simply that...

 

In addition to making your own vote more valuable and adding to your curation rewards (as well as earning interest on your stake), some amazing members of the Hive community are offering prizes that include delegations, Hive giveaways, and other cool stuff (listed below, with a special section for new prizes this month).

And once again in @streetstyle's own words...

If you'd like to jump in and offer a prize for future #hivepuds, simply shout out either in the comment section, or on Discord (traciyork#4860) and I'll be sure to update the prize list accordingly!

And no worries if your account is too big/small to qualify for an "official" prize - remember that any time you power up, you "win" a bigger upvote and more power on the blockchain. Can't go wrong with a prize like that! 

For now, based on the past few months, I'm leaving all the prizes marked as ✔️ (CONFIRMED) as they seem to be fairly consistenly awarded. If that changes, I'll update the prize to ⛔ (NOT CONFIRMED) until I know for sure. And sponsors, if you'd rather I left your prize marked ⛔ each month until you shout out, please let me know and I'll be happy to change it.

Thanks once again to everyone for all you do to make our new blockchain space a home. Special shout out to my numbers guy @abh12345 for always pulling together the data when the time comes - Asher, you're a ROCKSTAR!

And here's to another awesomesauce Hive Power Up Day - I know we're doing @streetstyle proud!
