LPUD: Breaking Targets, Achieving goals
It's been a roller coaster ride since I found my way back to the Inleo platform after a long break. I became fully vested and a firm believer in the project. Since then, I've looked to increase my stake and enjoy all the perks that come with it. Today is not the day I'll talk about the perks (this can be seen everywhere for someone who cares enough) but a day to celebrate a milestone. The 15th of every month is the Leo Power Up Day (LUPD) and here is my submission.
On the last power-up day, I barely made 160 Leo Power by powering up my earnings and buying a little off the market. I gave myself a target for 2025; to get to 1k Leo Power before half of the year (June). Then I didn't know there was a gold of Leo token on the platform ready to be mined, albeit legitimately. If you find this post too long to read, the summary is that I broke the 1k Leo Power target with more than 95% of it through referral earnings on the Inleo platform.
Now, let me tell you how I was able to do it.
Even though I've been hearing about the referral program and the potential to earn from it for a while, I never took it seriously. To be honest, I don't like sharing referral links anywhere. While I was just navigating around the platform one day, after the last power-up day, I stumbled on the referral page with my referral link. Since I have a very active X account with up to 2k followers some of which are already disturbing me about getting onboarded to crypto and web 3.0 platforms, I decided to give it a try.
I copied my referral link and posted it on my X timeline. What made it more interesting was that I belong to a crypto community on the platform. Just a few minutes after sharing the link, I refreshed the referral page and to my surprise, More than 5 new users had signed up using my link and 50 Leo tokens were already waiting for me to be claimed. Is that easy? Damn it!
Within 24 hours, I've had up to 20 referrers. The way the referral program was designed, you will earn even more if those who signed up through your link become active and regularly post on the platform. This provides another incentive not just to onboard users, but also to educate them on how to use the platform and help them to settle. I started a campaign on my X page to encourage those who signed up through me to post and engage on the platform.
I discovered that some of them had impediments that have been hindering them from posting and engaging. Some complained that they were not able to access their accounts after signing up. Since they signed up using X, instead of always accessing their account through the same X, many were taking the hive options. Hence, I had to start educating them.
Some also didn't know the difference between threads and long-form posts. Some of them that managed to post did so in the blog section. Thus, their blogs were filled with short posts meant for threads. At some point, I had to stop promoting my referral link and instead focus on getting those I've already onboarded to become active and integrated into the platform.
To cut the long story short, below is the screenshot of how much Leo I've been able to make so far through referral earnings:
A note of caution though, I didn't get everything in the screenshot to my wallet because the system flagged my activities as that of a bot at some points. If your referrers just keep signing up without making any posts, you are likely to be flagged as a result.
I allowed all the earnings to sit in my wallet for today. When I saw that powering up all the liquid would give a Leo Power that is still a bit short of 1K, I looked into my Hive engine tokens and sold off one of the useless ones that still had a bit of value. I then used the Hive token to buy some Leo. I powered the stash and this effectively took me beyond 1k Leo Power:

Now that I've achieved my half-of-a-year target within a month, what new target do you think I can set for myself now?
