Hi fellow Lions,
Today I was checking out my Hive Engine wallet and was really glad to see some other benefits I wasn't anticipating!
Extra Crumbs
My goals for some of the hive engine tokens I have been collecting is so that I can vote all kinds of different tokens, tribes and cool things at the same time. That got me into creating some dedicated accounts like PAL, LOTUS and Leo but some of the automation with that is a little tough because it costs 100 hive power to have the account work properly. Not a deal breaker by any means but it's tough, especially with the price of hive doing pretty well lately! I'm glad that I spent December and January spending my liquid Hive to buy a lot of different Engine tokens, that 400 or so hive is a lot harder to come by with the price going up! Ratio's of payouts for HBD and conversions of HBD:liquid hive change with the increase in token price (that I understand, I'm not wrong on that am I?)
I have also liked the really big difference in the number of outgoing votes and the people that receive them. Ignore the highest amount of them, those were down votes for people. I kind of wish we could have a separate chart on PeakD for upvotes versus downvotes. Not complaining too much, having the info is good to see I think! The number of different accounts, ones I’ve never interacted with before, is pretty cool!
One of my favorite benefits, besides being able to spend a little less time trying to spend my voting power, is that my account is voting on an incredibly diverse amount of content and tribe tokens. I’m going to probably turn off my PAL auto voting account and save the 100 HP that it had and bring all my PAL tokens back to my main account here. A lot of posts will use the PAL tag as one of them so it makes sense to use that as well!
With all of my different tokens I have staked on hive engine, I’m getting pretty great returns on them with just voting on random content. I could get more with dedicated accounts for each but that’s a lot of effort and costs 100 hive each. I don’t think it’s worth my time and effort to do that so I’ll pass on it for now.
This was originally going to just be a short term thing but I’m enjoying the automation of it in many ways. I don’t want to keep the votes to just my feed and especially when I’m on the go or relaxing staying off the phone, it’s nice to not have to constantly make sure I’m not sitting at 100% voting power. Add in the other benefit of getting to put my hive engine tokens to use with a really wide diverse voting pattern and I’m sold. I’ve found a pretty decent happy medium with how much time is spent on things and how much time I don’t have to spend doing others. This automation has been interesting, especially because I still get to spend more of my voting power when I want to help support posts in my feed and in my fledgling community Rant, Complain, Talk. It’s got a few posts in it every week so that’s great!
