Dang it! I came soooo close to actually having this post out exactly on time, but sadly the Power Up Day gremlins weren't done with me yet. However, I have high hopes for the new year, and I'm wicked excited about what I think the next few months will be like in the cryptoverse (not financial advice...lol).

To break it all down, we had 90 qualifying entries for the prize pool (compared to 109 in September) with 169 total entries (with 209 last time) and 171 posts with either the #HivePUD, #HPUD, and/or #HispanicHPUD tags on the first (last month we had 217).

For the overall number, the power ups ranged from 0.65 to 2715.32 Hive Power for a grand total of...

By comparison, the total in August was 40,423.331. Yes, that's a pretty big dip, but my impression (especially after seeing the numbers from Hive Buzz is that some of the older/larger accounts who usually power up & post, only powered up this month, so their numbers didn't count towards our total. Seeing the participation of the smaller/newer accounts holding fairly steady is the more important metric to me. So even with the smaller numbers I think the results are...

The Lists

Here is the UNOFFICIAL results list for December 1st. If you spot any errors, or your powerup/post was somehow overlooked, please shout out as soon as possible.

The OFFICIAL written-in-stone list will be out in twenty-four hours-ish. I've set a timer on this post, and as soon as possible after it expires, I'll get it posted. Then at that time the sponsors can award their prizes. The complete list is in my announcement & welcome to Power Up Day post, and will be included in the official results as well.

This list only includes those who powered up & posted about #HivePUD and/or #HPUD on the 1st, and met the criteria (reputation between 39 and 69 before powering up; Hive Power between 100 and 8000 prior to the 1st), and posted using the tag(s) so they qualify for prizes. I don't assign placement numbers until the official list is posted, and I've added a separate list below this one for those who posted & powered up, but their accounts were either too big/too small in their Hive Power or Reputation to qualify for the usual monthly prize pool.

Thanks again to everyone for their participation, with extra thanks to the Hive Power Up Day team (Hive account@erikah, Hive account@livinguktaiwan, and Hive account@arcange) for again helping me get the results out before the next HivePUD arrived. 😂

And remember...
