It's the 14th of the month again, and you know what that means? 🍕PIZZA POWERUP DAY🍕 is back! 🥳 We welcome you to February's edition of PPUD! 📆

This month's PPUD also coincided with Valentines Day. 💘 Was this on purpose when picking the arbitrary 14th of every month? 🤔🤣 Who knows? On a sidenote, I did actually order a Pizza for my meal today too. 🍕

What is this Power Up Day? It is a day where Pizza Holders and even new users are encouraged/incentivized to stake their $PIZZA together.

Why??? You might say. First off, and most importantly, $PIZZA Staking offers 12% APR paid out daily and is automatically staked to compound your interest. Granted, one can always stake Pizza anytime you like, but as a community event, you stand to win some prizes too! 🎁

Our PIZZA BOSS, @thebeardflex himself, led by example and fired off the very first PPUD right as the clock ticked into the start of the event! 🍕

There has been an amazing number of PIZZA power ups this month again.

The top PIZZA power up for this PPUD goes to @h3m4n7! 🎉 I've noticed my pizza coffee mate h3m4n7 consistently powering up every month for awhile now, so much so that he has achieved the rank of The Big Cheese with more than 50k PIZZA staked! 😱

🍕⚡Pizza Powerup Day Commences🍕⚡

---

My initial amount of staked PIZZA stood at 8987 before today's PPUD! 🍕

---

And NOW... AND its POWERUP time! ⚡️💪🏻 (14th February 2023)

I powered up 300 PIZZA and am now at 9287 PIZZA! 🍕

📈💎🙌🏻My Long-Term Plan📈💎🙌🏻

Now clearly, I wouldn't just spend such an amount on the PIZZA token just for the fun of it. PIZZA as a token also has significant value and growth potential.

The price of PIZZA has once again stayed amazingly constant these past few months. Even with all the market turbulence around us, this token has such strong support that it's price is pretty much unaffected by any outside forces! 🤑🥳📈

Granted we've seen a slight dip in terms of HIVE pricing for PIZZA, but this is however offset by the general increase in the price of HIVE overall now.

It has been a pretty good year so far for the markets in general. However, the recent news about the SEC going after PAXO which ended up delisting BUSD as a stablecoin from Binance has caused some worry in recent days.

Personally, I'm even somewhat happy that I've been "given another chance" to accumulate more when the prices are this low! 🤑🤑🤑

I can see the potential in PIZZA (and also in HIVE) and am bullish on its future prospects. As they say, diamond hands and HODL 💎🙌🏻, I intend to just hold onto my tokens and since I've no intention of cashing out anytime soon, what better way than to participate in PPUD and locking it all in.

Pizza staking offers a 12% APR interest paid out daily which is automatically staked and compounded. The table above shows you an example of how much it'll grow within a year. It'll actually adds up to 12.74% APR this way.

This sounds low especially in the crypto world, but it is still far superior to any bank interest rates. 💰💰💰 (of course, this is simply my opinion and should not be construed as financial advice, and all readers will have to do their own due diligence)

💎🙌🏻🎉🥳🎊WAGMI💎🙌🏻🎉🥳🎊

I hope to continue to powerup monthly in this community event whilst also growing my PIZZA stake. It would be most interesting indeed to chart my monthly progress this way too.

I'll see you all again during the next Power Up Day next month with another update! Till then, See you and WAGMI! 💎🙌🏻🦍💪🏻
