Have you heard the BUZZ about the new HIVE badges? They are something else. They are awarded to anyone who powers up on HPUD day - Hive Power Up Day!!! Natural Medicine is joining in the fun and offering a month long, 500 HP delegation to one lucky Hiver who powers up on September 1, helping grow your account and spreading some HIVE loooovvvveeeeee. We'll also throw the winner 1000 LOTUS tokens too!

WHY POWER UP?

@traciyork said it perfectly in her post about the September 1 PUD (which you MUST read for conditions and for more cool prizes):

I believe Hive has the ability to grow far beyond our current expectations, and it's encouraging to me to see other people (from whales to the tiniest fish in the Hive ocean) powering up, as it shows we all share the same long term vision for our blockchain home. And as we saw with what happened on that other blockchain, the more we all power up, the more voice we all have in governance (higher stake means your vote counts for more), so we can have our say in things like top witnesses, proposals, and such. Plus there's something to be said for the financial benefit of bigger curation rewards, and earning passive income from the interest off our stake.

A Tiered Badge System

Don't worry if you only have a tiny amount of HIVE to power up! @hivebuzz have created a tiered badge system. Even if you can only scrape together 10 HIVE, you can still earn a badge. Read ALL the details in their post here!!

Can't Afford to Power Up? We Can Help!

Even better, if you are struggling to power up, some one can gift you some HIVE to power up on your account!!!

Natural Medicine will help THREE new users power up this month. If you are:

• under 60 rep
• have less than 500 HIVE
• join in our TWITTER challenge here
• Reblog this post
• Can PARTLY power up and have 4 HIVE or more to do so

We will power up the rest on your behalf!!! Simply meet the above conditions and then contact @riverflows on Discord riverflows#4691 or Twitter @riverflowws.

Hope you can join in the PUD fun, and we are looking forward to seeing those cool badges on your profile!!!

A reminder about the timeline to win some cool prizes (again, READ THIS POST by @traciyork):

• Power up Hive on September 1st, 2020 (by midnight UTC time)
• Post about your powerup on September 1st, 2020
• Official winners list will be posted on September 5th, and we will disperse the delegation shortly thereafter.

Don't forget you can check your Stats and see your badges on the Hive Buzz site here!!

Ah - it's all too cool. Off to count my HIVE to see how much I - and us, @naturalmedicine, and @lotusshares, can power up on PUD day!
