LEO Power Up Day in the Month of Love

Achieving 5,000 LEO Power is my goal for this year. To accomplish this, I need to power up 300 LEO every month. Today is the second month I powered up 300 LEO. That's twice the size of LEO I have been staking since the day I participated in this community activity.

SME helps me a lot in increasing my LEO. Last 17 January, I sold 6,275 SMEs for 4.39 SWAP.HIVE and bought 26 LEO. Seventeen days after, on 03 February, I sold 2,352 SMEs for 1.12 SWAP.HIVE and added 7 LEO. And then 08 February, I sold another 5,840 SMEs for 2.628 SWAP.HIVE and increased my LEO by 20.4. On 10 February, I sold 4,255 SMEs for 1.91 SWAP.HIVE and bought 15 LEO. Finally, yesterday, I sold 1,548 SMEs for 0.9289 SWAP. HIVE and added 7 LEO. All in all, SME gave me 75.4 LEO within a month.

Contrary to my expectation, SME gave me 10.96 SWAP.HIVE from January 16 to February 14. That's short of 9.04 from the 20 SWAP.HIVE I expected. And so instead of the 128 LEO I anticipated, I only added 75.4 LEO from my content creation and curation rewards coming from the SoMee tribe. That is understandable because I observe those who upvote my posts in this tribe reduced their voting power.

Moreover, I also observe that the price of SME falls while the price of LEO remains more stable. This means that buying LEO is more expensive than the previous month. That's also another reason I bought a lesser quantity of LEO.

Nevertheless, even though my LEO accumulation this month is lower, still I haven't used the 500.00 PHP monthly budget for this token. I think I will just use this amount for 15 March LPUD. In USD, that is just 9.10 and that can buy 25 more LEO.

The most important thing is that regardless of smaller SME rewards and unutilized $9.10, I was still able to collect 371 LEO this month. I just need 229 LEO for the next LPUD.

So today is the second LEO Power Up Day (LPUD) in 2023. So far, only 13 hours are remaining before the end of this community activity.

To participate in this activity, I just powered up 300 LEO a minute ago.

LEO can maintain its top position in the list of my Hive Engine tokens. At last, I now have 2,006 LEO. I am curious about @onealfa's post a day ago. I didn't know what he meant by this:

Just make sure you reach 2000-staked LEO by the end of February 15th and wait for some sweet, surprising calls on Discord.

I commented that though I don't know anything about it, "One thing is sure, I will reach 2k by 15 February." Today is 15 February and I just reached 2,000 LEO Power.

Monitoring the growth of my LEO Power, this is now the new update:

Date	Starting LEO	Ending LEO	LEO Growth	% Growth	Cumulative % Growth
15 January	1,406	1,706	300	21.33%	21.33%
15 February	1,706	2,006	300	17.58%	42.67%

Again, it's my prayer that I can sustain such growth in the months to come until the end of the year.

Happy #LPUD to everyone and more power to the LeoFinance community!

Grace and peace!
