I finally managed this month to do at least one non-HivePUD post - who knows, maybe next month I'll have two! π It's only a couple days old and involves a guessing game (with a few small prizes), so take a peek and take a guess if you'd like when you're done doing all the Hive Power Up Day things. π
Speaking of - while technically in my little corner of the world there's still just over 2 hours left of July (I'm posting this a short time before 10:00pm EST), #HivePUD for August 1st 2022 has already arrived in other parts of the world. If you want a super cool way to check if it's officially in your area according to UTC time (which is how the Hive Buzz badges are determined), be sure to check out the Countdown Timer on the hivebuzz.me site (under the green "Power Up" tab), courtesy of the awesomesauce team at @hivebuzz!
HivePUD TL;DR
- If you want to qualify for the AMAZING Hive Power Up Day badge(s), your power up must happen during the 24 hours of August 1st 2022 according to UTC time.
and/or
- If you want to qualify for the #HivePUD prize pool, your power up and post must happen (according to criteria listed below) during the hours of August 1st 2022, your local time.
Β
AND PLEASE NOTE:
I did some tweaking of the 4 traditional HivePUD posts a year ago this month, and back in April 2022 I decided to tweak a bit more by combining the usual first two posts (Announcement & Welcome to HivePUD) into this one that I publish around the first few hours of the start of the first each month. In addition, I'll do some extra signal boosting of the "HivePUD is coming" posts done by others instead, as it seems like it will be the best way to spread the word. πAnd last month, I decided to tweak the rules a bit, for the first time in forever - be sure to check them out.
Β
Now, for the basic Power Up Day details...
Β
Β
What is HivePUD?
Hive Power Up Day happens on the first of every month. Those who are able to, take this time to power up some Hive, and/or cancel their power downs and pause trading/selling for the 24 hour span of the day.
If you'd like more in depth information about Power Up Day, please check out this post from July 2021.

Β
What are the rules to win prizes for HivePUD?
UPDATED
The requirements are:
- Your reputation must be above 39 and below 70 and your account must be in good standing with the community.
- Your total Hive Power (before the 1st) must be more than 100 and less than 8000.
- You must power up at least 10 Hive on August 1st (and must NOT be powering down).
- You must write a post about your power up on August 1st with the tag #HivePUD (International) or #HPUD (Hispanic) as one of your first 5 tags (tagging only in the body of the post doesn't count).
Β
To be included in the winners list, you must meet all four requirements above. The order of the list (first place, second place, and so on) will be determined by the biggest PERCENTAGE of Hive powered up, not necessarily the most Hive powered up.
And to make it clear what's changed about the rules, I've bolded the two bits in rules #1 and #3. I think it's pretty self-explanatory why I've added those in, but please feel free to shout out if you any questions about it.
Β
How to get HiveBuzz badges
For details, check their post Hive Power Up Day - August 1st 2022 as well as their Power Up Day Helper Badge post but essentially -
- Power up a minimum of 10 HIVE during the UTC time for the first of the month. Convert your local time to UTC or check the countdown timer on the Hive Buzz site (under the "Challenges" tab) to confirm it's during the first UTC time before you power up.
Β
They've also turned the occasional #HPUM (Hive Power Up Month) into a monthly event all year long! To read more about it, check out their post from the beginning of the year, PUD - PUH - PUM - It's all about to Power Up!

Happy #HivePUD everybody - may your power ups be plentiful!
Now I understand what this Power Up thing about. As a more than one month old user here, I am still confused about some certain things here and with the help of this post, I learn another additional knowledge.
I belong to the not qualified account because I have less than 100 HP in my account, but I will still participate to this power up challenge.
Thank you so much for this.
You can do it :) Keep posting and accumulating rewards so you qualify next time.
Yes Lee. Thank you for the motivation!
We all started with nothing and soon you'll be joining us in powering up :)

Blessed month of August.
I already did my #PowerUpDay, I did it within UTC time, but it's still Sunday here in Venezuela, I still participate for the Latin Awards. Or I have to do another powerUp tomorrow Monday at this time, because I just published.
That gif in the end says it all, we win by powering up :) Cheers to all!

I just joined hive about 4days ago. I'm still a bit lost in certain things and one is the Hive power up day.
I read through the post and I'm still not cleared π₯² I understand that as a newbie, some of these things wont make sense immediately but hopefully with time. I'll appreciate some explanation from anyone. @traciyork @iheeshan06 @leeart
