It's time for another Leo Power Up Day and you can stake some LEO to get a chance at some nice LEO delegations. The delegations is from previous month's LPUd.
LEO Power UP Day
I participate in Hive Power Up Day each month and I am quite happy to see an LEO Power Up Day continue this month. At the start of the year, I made my 2024 yearly goals and that was increase my LEO Power to 11k. In order to reach this, I need to stake on average 275 LEO a month and I prefer to stake all of it during LPUD back at the start of the year. Before the powerup today, I need 246 LEO per month to reach my goal.
The requirements for participating to get rewards are below. I am currently at 8,788 LEO staked so I qualify for this. Even if you don't qualify this time around, I think it's still a nice thing to participate in because there are some unofficial prizes. There is a post from last month here. Just make sure to use the #LPUD tag.
- Your total Leo Power (on the 15th) must be less than 25k.
- You must power up at least 150 Leo on February 15.
- You must not have powered down Leo since September 15.
- Make a post Leo Finance about LPUD (A Thread is not enough). Posts might get a visit from leo.voter!
One thing to note is that they have made some changes and anyone who powers up at least 50 LEO can get a chance at the smaller delegations. Check the post linked above to see what is available. This means that people can get a chance at earning a delegation even if they don't have the 150 LEO because the LEO price has gone up quite a bit since LPUD started. There will also be a free premium for 10 users who power up at least 150 LEO.
As a bonus, there is also an LPUD badge on Hivebuzz. I am glad that hivebuzz is alive and running. It's nice to see the badge.
LEO Power Up
I decided to power up 300 LEO to lower the amount of LEO I need in the future months. I was planning to power up more but I wasn't sure how much I needed to leave on the side to make sure that I still had enough for each month's LPUD. After removing my liquidity from CUB, I have much more LEO on the side so I did a larger powerup than last month.
Conclusion
If you haven't done so, you might want to consider doing an LEO power-up and you can win an extra prize (LEO Power delegation). The LEO community is quite big, and I think staking more LEO is great for the entire network. The LEO power-up badge is also a nice plus to what we get from normally powering up to reach my goals.
