Official Winners List for HivePUD October 1 2020.jpg

A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to this month's #HivePUD, either through powering up, posting, offering prizes, or spreading the word. Altogther we had:

144 posts on the 1st tagged with #HivePUD and/or #HPUD.
122 people who powered up and posted on the 1st using #HivePUD and/or #HPUD, with 77 of those qualifying for prizes.
33,454.777 Hive (worth approx $5,018 USD) powered up from Hive Power Up Day participants during the hours of the first via their local time.
124,819 Hive (worth approx $18,723 USD) powered up during the 24 hour UTC time set to earn @hivebuzz badges (check out their awesome Feedback from the October 1st Hive Power Up Day post for more info).

All in all, even with the blockchain braincramps and naughty nodes (not to mention needing to amend the original unofficial winners list) it was yet another wicked awesome day, my Hive friends!

Now, for the official results (with another hat tip to my numbers guy @abh12345 for all of his help).

Again, I wicked appreciate everyone for making this #HivePUD event such an awesomesauce success! Even with the Hive hiccups, and having a dozen fewer participants, we still managed to top last month's power up total. I've said it before, and I'll say it again - the #Hive community ROCKS!
