My Little Alive Power Staking Plan

When about two weeks ago I finally joined (after a longer observation) that relatively small but very active and full of energy Hive community called "We Are Alive Tribe", I didn't know about their "AliveOnThursday Staking Contest" run by @flaxz, creator of the whole Hive based "We Are Alive And Social" initiative.

I didn't know that the contest's participating tribe members would be awarded (given, not just delegated) with Alive tokens directly sent to their Alive Power wallets for their staking efforts. However, I still came up with my little plan to grow my Alive Power.

The plan was to invest a portion of my Hive earnings to buy about 20 Alive Tokens every second day which would be on average 15 purchases per month or approximately 300 Alive Tokens per month.

My first goal was (and still is) to achieve 1,000 Alive Tokens staked what would allow me to use the Alive reward bot and donate some of those tokens just by typing that magic "Alive" word with the exclamation point, as an extra reward for some good post or comment, and the same as a way to spread the word about this exceptional community.

According to my plan, and if not counting in eventual earnings gained through my posts or comments, I would reach my goal in about 3,5 months.

But, thanks to the #AliveOnThursday Staking Contest in which I was lucky to take the prize of over 470 Alive Tokens for my staking efforts so far, only in two weeks I reached the point I thought it would take me over two months, as my total Alive Power now is something above 685.

Not, to mention that my upvote power (at its 100%) over a sudden jumped from modest 0,070 Alive tokens up to 0.220 what makes me a bit closer to my second goal of "my little plan," to be able to award fellow members with at least 1 whole Alive Token upvote.

To achieve that, and according to my calculations, I would need about 3,100 - 3,200 Alive Power staked. To get there, only with my purchases, it would take me almost 11 months, but with this received contest reward and already staked amount of tokens, I would need 2 months less. 😍

I can't express good enough how happy I am because of that! 😃

Therefore, to celbrate that, I even made my personalized Alive token.
Yeah, I know! You are free to laugh! 😄

But, in case, you might like my crazy idea of personalized Alive tokens, and want to create your own with your avatar or what so ever in it, I'm living you here the full sized photo of empty token which you are free to use and personalize it as you wish.

Please, just be aware, although the vector token image that I used to create this Alive token was downloaded from Pixabay what makes it free to use even for commercial purposes and with no attribution required, I still think it would be nice to reward the author at least by small linking mention, so I'm kindly asking you to check the image source at the end of this post.

Hoping that my little Alive Power staking plan and my current achivement might be of some use and ispiration to you, and bring you even just a portion of joy that I feel today being alive and very Alive emPowered, I wish you all the best and to stay alive!
