The first time moving HIVE around is always a bit scary - you did fine 🙂

Once you've built up and staked a bit of HIVE, you'll find you stop worrying about Resource Credits, you'll always have enough for most things you want to do.

But it really is a compounding game; the more HP you've got, the faster you'll earn more from posting and upvoting. There's a 2 cent "dust limit" on upvotes - a post or comment with less doesn't pay out, so until your vote value is over 2 cents, just upvote things other people have already voted on. The amounts will look small (especially at first !) but with consistency they'll soon mount up.

But most important.... enjoy being here, and have fun ! 😀
