So I'm very happy (and relieved) to say the official results for August are now done and dusted (for the record, only twenty minutes after the timer on the previous post expired), and it's not even September yet! 😂
This month so far has been exceptional in many ways (both good and... challenging...) but even though things went a bit sideways with data gathering this month, I think we're now back on track for the months to come. Wait, forget I said that - I don't want to jinx anything!
Now last bit before I get to the matter at hand - as always I've set a 20% beneficiary for this last HivePUD post of the month to each of my team members - @livinguktaiwan, @erikah, and my new numbers man extraordinaire, @arcange. I really appreciate all you do to help Power Up Day succeed.
Again I want to say that another group of people I appreciate is our Hive Power Up Day sponsors - while it's been said many times that even just powering up Hive to your account is a win, the kind folks who offer prizes make it that much more fun.
And a quick side note to them (and to people waiting for the drawing results) - as always, I'll be doing the drawings and delegations in the morning, and as I started a few months ago, I'll send everyone a message on Discord with the link to the comment I drop below this post. Thanks again to all of you for your support!
One more thing before I get to the final results, a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to this month's #HivePUD, either through powering up, posting, offering prizes, or spreading the word.
This month, we had:
- 226 posts on the 1st tagged with #HivePUD, #HPUD, and/or #HispanicHPUD tags.
- 195 people who powered up and posted on the 1st using #HivePUD, #HPUD, and/or #HispanicHPUD tags, with 108 of those qualifying for prizes.
- 39,698,625 Hive (worth approx $14,688,491.25) powered up from Hive Power Up Day participants during the hours of the first via their local time.
- 80036.738 Hive (worth approx $29,613.59 USD) powered up by 494 people during the 24 hour UTC time set to earn @hivebuzz badges (check out their Feedback from the August Hive Power Up Day post for more info).
Way to go, everyone!
Now, to make it all official...

Starting back in August 2021, the people who didn't qualify for the main prize pool now have their own small but special prize pool, but instead of tagging them all here again, I'll wait and tag the winners in the comment section when I do my drawings and delegations.
@victoriabsb has her Preliminary Results from #HispanicHPUD posted. Check it out here - Hive Power UP Day : Hispanic Preliminary Results Agosto 2023 [ENG/ESP] || #HPUD
And be sure to follow both her Hive and her Twitter accounts because she's an amazing person and one of the busiest and awesomest Hiveans ever (not to mention the incredible ideas she comes up with, like Orca Month in December 2021!) .

- One HivePUD participant who powers up and tweets about Power Up Day (whether they DO or DO NOT qualify for the above prizes) will receive a 100 HIVE Power delegation for 4 weeks - Sponsored by @hiveblogshare ✅
Coming in September 2023
Like last month, there's nothing concrete as of yet, but with the assistance of my awesome team (have I mentioned lately that they're awesome? 😂 ) I have no doubt we'll see more sponsors, more prizes, and more fun! But hopefully less shenanigans from the Universe when it comes to getting the numbers crunched!
Don't forget the now monthly Hive Power Up Month Challenge by @hivebuzz is still going strong. Be sure to keep an eye on @hivebuzz for information and more awesome initiative like that - follow them (on Hive and on Twitter) so you don't miss out on any announcements (plus, they're wicked cool peeps!).
Lastly for now (but certainly not least)...
THANK YOU!
Again, I truly appreciate everyone for making this #HivePUD event such an awesomesauce success! I've said it before, and I'll say it again - the #Hive community ROCKS!
