What is Hive-Engine governance?
Since you are on the Hive blockchain, you are probably aware that there is a Hive governance system where you can vote on witnesses and also on DHF proposals. Your vote is defined by the amount of Hive Power that you have. The more Hive staked, the more your vote matters.
Few people know however that there is also a Hive-Engine governance. Hive-Engine is a second layer infrastructure on the Hive blockchain. If you use Hive-Engine, Tribaldex, Tribes, Diesel Pools, Beeswap, then you are also using the Hive-Engine infrastructure.
The governance aspect on Hive-Engine rotates mainly around voting for Hive-Engine witnesses. Few people are however aware that the governance token of hive-engine is the 'Workerbee' token.
What is the Workerbee token?
I would say that the Workerbee token is not a well known token and that is probably the reason why the Hive-Engine governance is limited to a restricted circle of people. The workerbee token is a mining token. At a regular interval 20 workerbee tokens are selected randomly and they receive BEE tokens as rewards. There are in total 240 payouts per day of 1 BEE each. To be able to qualify for these mining rewards, the Workerbee tokens need to be staked. It's also only staked workerbee tokens that give governance votes.
What return for Workerbee tokens?
If you stake WB tokens, you need to understand what are the probabilities for getting a reward to grasp your potential return. There are close to 250'000 staked WB. If you have 1 WB, your chances are 0.096% to get a daily reward. Hence, the chance to get a reward is pretty low and you might get no more than 3 payouts per year. The more tokens you own, the more regular your return will be. With 100 WB tokens, you will get a reward about every 10 days.
The return that you get depends mainly of two factors, the price at which you bought your WB's and the price of BEE tokens. If you buy WB at around 2.4 Hive, your APR will be around 5%. However, if you manage to purchase WB at around 1 Hive, you can get up to 12% APR.
If you have a small amount of WB tokens, a good idea is to delegate them to the pool of 
Where can you purchase WB?
There is of course the market swap.hive:WB on tribaldex or hive-engine but you also have a dieselpool BEE:WB where the token price is often more interesting than on the market.
Is it worth it?
Compared to a lot of other tokens on Hive-Engine, WB and BEE tokens are both pretty stable in price. They have both several use cases that make them interesting to hold. If you manage to purchase WB at a good price, you will enjoy a nice APR and in addition to that you can vote on HE witnesses. You can do it on several platforms like tribaldex or primersion.
Liotes as HE Witness
With the Liotes project we have been running a hive engine witness for a very long time. We also run a node that can be used by projects on hive that use the hive-engine layer. We have created a tool to help projects pay dividends to their delegators. We also run our ourpick curation project and have several incentives to promote activity and staking on the hive blockchain. We are very grateful if you could support our witness with your vote.
