Good morning my little buzzy mates, how is it already JULY?!?! What happened to the year, is it just me or has this been the fastest year yet? Seems time flies, whether you're having fun or not! It's time for another POWER UP! Another chance to check in on how I'm getting on with my goals and see how ALIVE my Hive journey is!

Hive Power Up Day!

Last month we were sitting on 2800 HP after powering up, more than halfway to our 5000 HP target. This month we kick things off at 2861 HP, so only a 61 HP gain over the month, slightly lower than expected. I need to try to get my content more 'niche' focused on those high-curated groups! I tend to keep my posts general and limited to more Hive-Engine tokens. Maybe I should make some HE targets for the future, although, I'm still not settled on which tokens to focus! Any ideas?

Starting today's power-up post with 2861 HP, let's go ahead and boost this month's HP with a decent power-up. I managed to 'buy the dip' when Hive hit the little mid-June sale price, so I'm powering up 1338 today. Ok, the plan was to hit 4200.69...but, seems I overshot, or managed to claim some other rewards in between..so let's pretend it's 4200.69 for the LOLZ! Yes, it's the little things that make a sloth smile!

The current HP is now 4,200.69! Still aiming for the top 2500 users based on HP, so let's see how we're doing by checking Hivebuzz and Hivestats!

HiveBuzz and Goals!

Let's jump on over to HiveBuzz and see how we're doing!

My main goal is to get to the top 2500 in HP rank! This is the perfect goal to keep a sloth buzzing on Hive! Just got $2 in HBD interest also, a perfect time for this post, smashing our HBD savings goal so time to increase that too!

Hivebuzz is showing our power-up ranking as 2462 SMASHING our way into the top 2500 for HP ranking! With only 800 HP required for the 5000 HP total, we're well on route to smashing our goals for this year! We've updated 2 of our 3 main goals for the year! Onwards and upwards Sloths!

What can Hivestats.io reveal about our stats this month?

Sloth Author rewards

Our "All Time" author reward (HP and HBD) earnings are now showing as 512 HP! A jump of 105 HP from last month's 407 HP. Curation rewards are 44HP so far!

Roughly 1.6 HP rewards per post currently about the same as last month, but we did think that was a 'poor' month overall!

We're averaging about 69 upvotes per post, always a LOL!

The Sloth power chart continues to show a steady increase, things are looking up! Let's keep that level on the rise as we move into a new month and continue to make a sloth.buzz!
