Welcome to the latest DUO update post. We hope you all are had a great week, we have some announcements to make.

We would like to announce a new way for folks to acquire DUO, you set Hive account@duo-curator as a benefactor on your posts and get equivalent DUO payout in 7 days with a 5% DUO bonus!

This is a way for us to get more funds into the project without relying on curation and sales.

We also brought about the idea of expanding our offering to make DUO more resilient and cross chain ready, the reality is that our reliance on hive inflation is far from ideal, and if we look at the math, with hive price hitting these lows the value of our HP reserves have gone down.

We wanted to expand into collateral loans, the question was how do we go about funding it, The most fair solution seems to be to power down some of curators HP and use that for loans, as well as diverting some of the funds we generate to the loans instead of growing HP, We have been growing it but its value has come down a fair bit.

Hive account@bitcoinman has been developing some hive scripts with a sell bot that sells HE tokens at a preset USD target updating the order when the price of hive changes more then 1%, the idea here is that we could have a semi isolated system that is not going to be effected by hive price swings however things are a more complicated as DUO is already a year old and we sold a lot of tokens and have a fair bit of holders and so we putting this idea on the table for your scrutiny.

Beside the loans we are also looking to bring in revenue by offering services via DUO service nodes, the short of it is that people that are interested can set up a DUO service node and it will automatically host different scripts and services, the operator get paid and DUO takes its cut, and the customer gets a competitive offering for hosting their service, there is also money to be made with creating these scripts, there is still much R&D for all that but we will be sure to keep you all posted

Important

DUO stakers are free to unstake as they please however we ask that when you do so you notify the DUO team, we set the curation up manually and letting us know keeps things fair for the other stakers.

Failure to do so will result in a 50% drop on curation on the remaining stake (Assuming its over 200 after the unstake as a reminder 200 is our minimum for curation) for a period of 1 week, there is no penalty for unstaking, only if it's done without notification to the DUO team.

DUO Voting Trail

We have set up a DUO token voting trail so that anyone who would like to help support our DUO stakers can join the trail at hive.vote, and search for duo-curator and follow! It's simple and we really appreciate all of your support!
If you need assistance joining the voting trail don't hesitate to reach out the the team for help

HP Growth

We are now sitting at 49,656.933 thanks to all early investors we've grown faster than we had envisioned!

Voting weight target

We have targeted voting weights however they may be adjusted to ensure that Hive account@duo-curator is maintaining healthy mana levels.

Voting weights targets

DUO staked	Vote weight target
200	10%
300	20%
400	30%
500	40%
600	50%
700	54%
800	62%
900	67%
1000	72%
1500	77%
2000	84%

Manual curation

When the voting mana is running high (above 85%) we have created a queue of our stakers who will receive an increased manual upvote when this is happening. First you must receive a normal vote from the Hive account@duo-curator to be eligible for the boost. The boost percentage will be up to 50% of a vote. Once you receive an additional curation your name moves to the bottom of the list so that everyone has a chance to benefit from this. New stakers that buy and stake at least 200 DUO will start at the bottom of the list to be fair.

You can see the current status of the list with this link:

Remember a minimum of 200 DUO staked is required to be eligible for curation.
