December HPUD - Hive Power Up Day - 61.232 HIVE Powered Up! - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Monday, December 1, 2025
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Happy December HIVE Powerup Day! To celebrate my participation in this illustrious monthly Hive tradition, I just powered up 61.232 HIVE! I received 0.011 HP in curation rewards right after powering up, so I included that in my total, since the transactions were done only a few seconds apart. Added to the 14,828.217 HP that I already had, this December HPUD (and the 0.011 HIVE that came in just afterward) has brought me to new total of 14,889.460 Hive Power! Given that I'm at the edge of 14,900 HP right now, it's almost a certainty that I'll achieve my 2025 goal of 15,000 Hive Power before the end of this new week, which is simply glorious!
After my November HPUD powerup, I had 14,348.471 HP, which means that I gained a whopping +540.989 HP in one month's time, which is bar none the most that I've ever gained in a month (outside of my two mega-powerups), and I'm saying that for the third month in a row! I also gained 91.583 HP more than I did last month! That's flipping amazing!
This is my 28th HPUD participation in total, and my 26th consecutive HPUD participation. I've powered up a whole lot of HIVE over the past 2+ years!
With my new total of 14,889.460 Hive Power, I should now receive 32.260-45.165 HP monthly in passive monthly income, based on a 2.60-3.64% APR. The APR is presently just a little under its all-time high, so I'm gaining quite a lot of HP just from this!
Have you powered up some HIVE (10 HIVE minumum) for the December HPUD yet? If you have already, congratulations on your investment in your investment in your power and influence, and in your future on the Blockchain! If you haven't had the opportunity to to participate yet, it's not a problem at all, as there are still several hours to go, so you've still got some time to take part! May the Hive Power be with you! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

It's good to see you Power Up 61.232 HIVE as Hive Power, even if it brought the HIVE tokens currently on your Hive account down to 0.000 though. 😎

Thanks, and that's the idea. They accumulate quickly. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

You currently have just 0.737 HIVE tokens on your Hive account after it went down to zero from 61.232 because of your Hive Power Up yesterday. 🤔 Perhaps I should give it a week before I say that I don't think it accumulates quick enough. 🤯😅

And it's up to 3.532 HIVE now. With BXT out of the picture, it will go up a bit more slowly, but it's still rising at a fair rate. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I needed to use #Ecency Search to find out why you decided to remove your investment for BXT, where I landed on one of your posts that says that you don't like what the operator of the frontend and its tokens has been doing. 🤯

Indeed, although I love BeeSwap, and BXT, the attitude of the fellow who runs it just doesn't work for me. I wish that Bjorn would create an even better BeeSwap. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Let's !HOPE then that #BeeSwap becomes FOSS first (for the benefit of the entire Hive community in general) too, then Bjorn would have an easy time forking (and improving) it !INDEED! 🤗

Even when an app is not FOSS, it can still inspire other devs to create a similar (but not too similar) version to it. 🤓

Indeed, though I'd love it if Bjorn could make it basically exactly like BeeSwap, just with a few notable improvements and additions. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

That's where being FOSS seems to be a requirement, or the dev might face copyright issues !INDEED. 🤯🤓

Indeed, sadly. It wouldn't have the same name, or even exactly the same look, but all the aspects that make BeeSwap so excellent should definitely be incorporated. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

It's just like the saying that when copying something, a person should imitate what's good and omit what isn't !INDEED. 🧘♂️ They should just be careful not to copy (any part of) the name itself, even when it's so good! 🤯😆
!WEIRD !HOPE !PIZZA !ALIVE !UNICOIN
Indeed, and there are some bugs on BeeSwap that drive me crazy, no matter how good it is. Well, the word 'Swap' is pretty generic, especially for a DEX, so I don't think that using that particular word in the name would be problematic. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

It's weird that the link to the "Convert" page on #BeeSwap is gone, and if you try to access the link manually by typing it on your web browser's URL bar, it will redirect to the "Swap" page. 🤯🤯😅
!PIZZA

Oh, I hadn't noticed that. I guess he removed it because people kept having problems receiving the converted asset. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

In my own experience, I didn't have any problem so far converting between HIVE and SWAP.HIVE using #BeeSwap !INDEED. 🤯😅

That's good, and me either, but I remember seeing people posting about it all the time on his Discord server. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

If people publish reports only on #Discord and not on-chain on Hive, then other #BeeSwap users who experienced problems using the platform won't be aware that such problems were already encountered by other users. 🤯 I think it would be a better idea if users who experienced issues report them both on Hive and on their chosen third-party communications platform !INDEED. 🤓
!HOPE !WEIRD !ALIVE !WINEX !PIZZA
Yes, that's true, but very few people publish their issues on chain. For better or worse, most Hivers use Discord. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

#PeakD Chat appears to be the most similar Hive dapp so far to #Discord, but it still seems to be far away from adoption, as necessary features such as voice/video calling and/or livestreaming aren't available on PeakD Chat yet. 🤯

savvyplayer, you mined 0.9 🟧 HBIT and the user you replied to (tydynrain) received 0.1 HBIT on your behalf as a tip. When you mine HBIT, you're also playing the Wusang: Isle of Blaq game. 🏴☠️
Sorry, but you didn't find a bonus treasure token today. Try again tomorrow...they're out there! Your random number was 0.7385629975867324, also viewable in the Discord server, #hbit-wusang-log channel. | tools | wallet | discord | community | daily <>< Check for bonus treasure tokens by entering your username at a block explorer A, explorer B, or take a look at your wallet.There is a treasure chest of bitcoin sats hidden in Wusang: Isle of Blaq. Happy treasure hunting! 😃 Read about Hivebits (HBIT) or read the story of Wusang: Isle of Blaq.
Yep, I like the idea, but in its present iteration its usefulness is limited. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

The one-on-one chats on #PeakD Chat definitely needs improvement, as the chats there being encrypted end-to-end by the private posting key of the two Hive accounts talking take a lot of time to load, new messages being sent take a long time (roughly 15 seconds) to appear as sent, and received messages also take a long time to display. 🤯🤓
!BEER
It's no wonder that it's barely used. It's still in the MVP stage. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Let's !HOPE that #PeakD Chat (and its fork #DBuzz Chat) exits the Minimum Viable Product version soon! 🤗😏

I think anyway that there are third-party apps (which have #Discord features such as voice/video calling and livestreaming) where people on Hive can securely and easily communicate, so there !INDEED is no need to "rush" the development of #PeakD Chat. 🧘♂️🤓

There are, hence the lack of adoption and further development. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

It's possible for a Hive dev (or preferably, a group of Hive devs) to get a FOSS app that is used for secure communication with voice/video calling feature, then allow people on Hive to log in their Hive accounts there so that they can securely communicate with other people on Hive (without the need of additional verification). 😎
!HOPE !INDEED !WEIRD !PIZZA !ALIVE
That would be ideal. Double authentication annoys me a bit. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Someone also has to verify the dapp being used. 🤔 Being FOSS is one (important) thing, but someone (competent and trustworthy) inspecting the code is another (important) thing. 🤯🤓
!BEER
Yes, that holds true for any FOSS code. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
!BEER
That is true even for code that simply displays
Hello, world!. 🧘♂️ Even if a code is 99.9% open-source (and free), who knows what the 0.1% of the code does. 🤯😅!PIZZA
All FOSS code should be reviewed regularly. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
!PIZZA
It's easier to simply produce (useful) FOSS code than have someone else (competent and trustworthy) review such code. 🤯 No wonder why code audits are so expensive. 💸😅
!WEIRD !INDEED !HOPE !WINEX !ALIVE
Especially now with AI agents assisting the process, though they can also be used to audit code quite well, if used correctly. I think any community of a FOSS project that they love will always have somebody reviewing the code. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
