This is my entry to the contest organized by @bdcommunity. I must commend the beautiful work the team at @bdcommunity is putting into this community, especially with the increasing engagement and on boarding of new authors.
POWERING UP AND SHARING PALLIATIVES TO THE NEEDY AFFECTED BY COVID-19
In response to the question 'You Earned 1000 HIVE (Around 22k BDT), What Would You Do Now?'
Joining the cryptocurrency and blockchain community at steem and then hive has been one of the best decisions I have made. The crypto blogging platform has helped me improve on my knowledge of blockchain/cryptocurrency and even writing skills.
However, interaction has been limited and difficult, especially with little or no reward coming from blogging on these platforms.
A significant reason is due to lack of a good amount of stake - Hive power. I have tried to purchase this but funds are not readily available to actualize this.
To this end, winning the 1000 HIVE will be indeed valuable to my dreams of engaging more and spreading the love, especially to new authors finding it hard to thrive on the platform. I believe the best form of receiving is giving back and this I hope to achieve through powering up some of my earnings from the 1000 HIVE.
If more people are able to power up, love can be spread evenly to all and we end up achieving collective success.
Secondly, I hope to use some of my earnings to buy relief materials such as food, drugs and toiletries to my local community that has suffered much due to the coronavirus.
Many businesses were shut down as a result of this and people who live on daily earnings have found it extremely difficult to cater for the increasing needs of their families. I have been supporting the few ones I can, but it has not been much as more people need to be reached.
You need to see the smiles and thankfulness in their eyes when I give them these gifts. What is life if you cannot use your resources to help the needy?. Winning the 1000 HIVE will help me put more smiles on the faces of these people.
In conclusion, my earnings will help me give back to the hive community through powering up and sharing of Upvotes to beginners and struggling authors. Also, my offline community will benefit from it through the food and drugs I would share to them as a means of reducing the impact of the COVID-19.
Thank you for having me and see you on the next one.
