November 27, 2024, simultaneous regional elections were held in several provinces, regencies/cities in Indonesia. I also participated in casting my vote in this democratic party. I arrived at the polling station around 9am, in cloudy weather with occasional rain showers. I entered the voting room by giving my voter ID card to the organizing committee, and I had to wait to get into the voting booth with other voters.
While waiting to be called to enter the voting booth, while sitting in line I opened my Steemit account and felt the need to do a Power Up as well as to enter the contest organized by Mrs. @jyoti-thelight, because it had been more than a week since I added my Steem Power.
Power Up Process
Look at my profile, initially the amount of Steem Power (SP) I have is 819 SP
Going to my Wallet, it shows that I have 95.740 Steem
Then I want to Power Up by choosing the available option
Then I was directed to enter the nominal value of Steem, I wrote down the amount of 35 that will be Power Up
And for that I also need to confirm the Transfer to Vesting amount of 35 Steem
Then I was in the final step of completing the transfer process by entering my Active Key
Finally now the amount I have has been reduced to 60.740 Steem only
Power Up has been successful, which can be seen from the amount of Steem Power I have to 854 SP
The Importance of Performing Power Up
I am very grateful to be a user who continues to actively grow my Steemit account, and I think the knowledge of the benefits of doing Power Ups needs to be shared to encourage more users to do so, especially those who have just joined the platform. Don't think too much about how much Steem is converted into your Steem Power, the most important thing is to do the Power Up activity itself, because it affects:
Account Strength
With increased account strength, the trust of many other users is also getting higher, including from community administrators to curators. Users who regularly do Power Ups have directly shown their commitment to continue to be active on the platform which will lead them to the path to getting greater rewards.Steem Coin Value
One of the supporting factors for the stability of the Steem value or even its increase is the amount of Steem invested into Steemit user accounts in the form of Steem Power, this is a real contribution from users to maintain the credibility of the platform which will increase the trust of the market, making it very possible for a positive trend for the growth of the Steem Coin.Club Status
A rule in contests held in many communities requires participants to be at least in the Club5050, which illustrates that club status is a consideration for assessing a post, so that more Steem Power Ups made will help users themselves by being in a higher club and giving a good impact on reputation.
After finishing the Power Up process, it was not long before my name was called to take the voting card and then head to the voting booth to determine the best choice in electing the Governor and Regent, with the hope that in the future the development and development of the region can be even better to provide prosperity to all elements of society as a whole, new leaders will become a new power.
