Exactly 9days, 13 hours, and 11 minutes a special event will take place in the steemit community, it is known as SPUD, it's a recurring event that happens on the 1st of every new month. SPUD for steem is designed as a special power-up day for steemians where the steemian with the highest number based on percentage increase has crowned the winner with lots of prizes and Sp delegation for 3 weeks. It's a great project that encourages steemains to power up their steem and invest more into the platform.

With the clock ticking and the event almost here a lot of steemians have been preparing for this event. Here @steemalive, members have already begun preparations for this wonderful event and are accumulating a lot of steemian in anticipation of the D-day.

This post is designed to serve as a guide for steemains who wish to join this event, it will provide a comprehensive guide on how to transfer their steem from the exchanges to their steemit account and the subsequent power-up process.

Making deposits to your steemit account
The steemit account is tied to a special wallet for each user, so making deposits to your steemit account is pretty easy and straightforward even for newbies on the blockchain.

First of all making exchange deposits is the first step, because you will have to purchase your steem either from an exchange or from any other trusted third party app. Most users buy their steem on an exchange like POloniex, Binance, and other exchanges that have steem listed. The third-party app includes apps like Roqqu, mostly for Nigerian users, however, if you can't access any third-party app you can buy your steem for power up @ Poloniex, in fact, this guide explains how you can buy steem from Poloniex exchange.

This video provides a comprehensive explanation of how to make deposits on your Poloniex account, you can purchase using other cryptos you might have by trading them for steem or you can buy directly using your debit cards using Poloniex.

Below are steps that highlight how to buy cryptos using your cards...

Sending Steem to your steemit wallet
Like I mentioned earlier every steemit wallet is unique to the user, this makes it easy to manage your funds in your wallet and incoming transactions. This makes it easy to send and receive steem, imagine Mr. Micheals wishes to power up 10,000steem on December 1st, Mr. Michael will have to complete these simple steps. First, he will have to move his already purchased 10,000 steem from exchange to his steemit wallet, This is how it's done on the Poloniex exchange....

  • Mr. Micheal will input the amount of steem he intends to send to his steemit wallet(In this case 10,000steem.
  • A special memo is required for this transaction, users will input the same memo key used during deposition.
  • Mr. Micheal will input the steemit address he wishes to send to, in this case, his steemit username(@mickey) is his address.
  • Mr. Michael will input his login password to authorize and confirm the transaction.
