On Hive you have several passive income opportunities. Among others, you can stake Hive and get curation rewards or you can put HBD into your savings account and get monthly interests for it.
What is your choice? Do you rather power up your hive or put your HBD into savings? Or maybe you do something totally different...

Hive power
Thanks for your answer

for me most is in hive power cause i think hive will go to the moon one day. but i now decided to put the hive dollar i earn to the savings just for a small backup for taxes etc.
I like your way of thinking... I do exactly the same... 95% goes to "real crypto", like HIVE, and the small % to stable coins for "just in case" and for paying daily stuff... ;)
yes exactly. but a small amount of hive dollar can save you for having to sell the crypto on a bad day with bad courses when you need the money.

I prefer to go with hive power. HBD is not bad but still HP is better because with this I can support many authors.
That's a very valid reason! I like to delegate some of my HivePower, but I try to keep a decent amount just because of curating others...

I prefer HP since it encourages me to be active on Hive. !LUV
That's an interesting point of view! I have to admit that I didn't think in that way at all, but it has a sense... It's like a motivational push!

While I do 50/50 my postings and roll my HBD into my savings, I generally prefer HP which I can continue to compound by using and earning more and using and earning more and...
Heheheeh... Oh, that sweet compounding effect! I have just written a post about it yesterday...

I currently power up 10 hive per month for Hive power up day. This helps to slowly grow my hive power which allows me to vote on various different post. Since I am still low on hive power everything is focused at that point. I am a ways from getting above the dust level of 2 cents which would make the apr more reachable in hive tokens. My main focus for tokens is currently OneUP where I can actually see it grow each week.
!PIZZA
That's a nice strategy... You push where you have space to grow, and slowly build the base level... ;)

I think I would rather power up my HIVE. I have never tried the savings mechanism.
Wow! You are a pure Hiver!!! Congrats on your dedication to the platform! :)
I have some HBD, but I think that my HP shows which one I like more... hehehe
Haha it sure does!
Thank you, I do try. I have never powered down either, nor do I plan to. I almost considered it recently though...

I split my rewards. Hive Power stays powered up and HBD gets put in savings.
That's an easy, but still an effective way of growing your stake in both assets... ;)

I can't choose for me the 50/50 combination is perfect
Hehehe... There is no wrong answer here as nobody knows it... :)

I'm mostly focused on HP. I'm trying to grow that to a certain level while it's still trading at a price I can actually accumulate. I do use the 50/50 on posts and any HBD I get from curation or whatever goes into savings. The goal is to ultimately be able to put enough in HBD to earn a meaningful passive income, but for now, I'm mostly focused on HP because it helps grow things through curation. Plus, I think there's a lot of price appreciation coming down the road at some point so I want to have as much as possible to take advantage of that.
Ideally, HIVE will go to $10+ and I'll be able to peel some off here and there to stash in HBD. The dream is $1M in HBD so I can collect $10k/month in interest. :-) A long way to go but...gotta have a plan, right? :-)

I agree with you here! Maybe HBD can do something similar to SBD, but the chances are low with all these stabilization things... But, it's OK like that... For me, HIVE is a real crypto and it has a huge potential... It CAN make a difference one day and I hope we will witness that...

I prefer a mixture. Since my rewards are set to 50% HP and 50% HBD, I just leave the HP staked and transfer the HBD into savings without rebalancing. In that way I get a bit of upside if Hive goes up, but I still have my HBD as a foundation if Hive goes down.
It looks like many people do that strategy, just to cover both possible "scenarios"... It's great that we have implemented that in the HIVE code!
4 credits added
Thank you!
I would do both. However, if I had to choose between the two, I would say HP is my preference because it gives you more stake in the governance and rewards pool.

Thanks for your answer! It's s tough question for many people and a lot of comments are for BOTH tokens!

I split between HP and HBD.
Fair enough! :) Many people have chosen the same!

I prefer a balanced approach. HP for increasing my influence on the platform and as a long term investment. HBD because it's more liquid and stable. Although currently we have two stable coins not one, since HIVE seems to move around $1 as well. Btw, HP also has interest, which is on top of curation rewards. Together I believe they are just about the same as HBD interest. But that's not so relevant, if HIVE re-becomes volatile, on the other side of 1$. Then these price movements will become the center of attention, as we know.
You are right HP has like 2.5% interests as well and we shouldn't neglegt that. I have a similar approach HBD and HP. The problem I have is that since I stake all my Hive and put all my HBD into savings, I often run out of liquid funds these days :-)
I have the same problem. Used to have much more liquidity before I started with the goals. :)

I chose to have Hive Power vs HBD due to needing the hive voting power to be able to vote for all the other H-E tokens and also the resource credits needed for the games, posting/commenting and voting that I do on the hive platform. I believe you get about the same return between about 12% hive power (2.88% + close to 9% curation rewards) vs 12% for HBD so that part is really close based on the dust votes that occur. But otherwise I lean toward Hive Power.
Owning HP has a lot of other effects that are not only financial. You can give value to posts, you have more influence, you can vote on proposals and witnesses. I believe that the first step for everybody should be to get a decent amount of HP.

I split between HP and HBD. The HBD sometimes goes towards Splinterlands stuff :D I save up the HP.
Hmm, Splinterlands is definitely a place were a lot of our income can disapear lol

HP for me, although I'm starting to increase my HBD savings monthly. Slowly but surely.

Nice strategy :-)
@liotes! You Are Alive so I just staked 0.1 $ALIVE to your account on behalf of @iamraincrystal. (1/30)
The tip has been paid for by the We Are Alive Tribe through the earnings on @alive.chat, feel free to swing by our daily chat any time you want.
Tough choice... right now HBD since HIVE is taking a dip and HBD collects 12% interest. When HIVE is rocking high, I prefer HP (vests) above everything else!!!! However... if HIVE dumps really low, it's an opportunity to sell some of that HBD and power it up to support the good folks here on HIVE - that way you're all charged up for when HIVE is rocking again!
It's a good idea to get some money into HBD and use price swings to increase the Hive holdings.

I am trying to get to Dolphin so Hive power for sure. But I do put all my HBD in savings until the end of the month for hpud.
That's definitely a worthwile objective. Owning 5K HP gives you a different renomee on the blockchain.

Since I earn on Hive from my posts, I have it set up so that I get paid 50/50, so 50% in Hive Power and 50% in HBD. I used to change all that HBD to Hive from time to time, but now I switch it to HBD saves every now and then.
I think it's a good idea to build both baskets. I did the same in the past but for the last months, I put all HBD into savings.
As I'm reading some news, interest now is 20%. Wow!

I am taking 50-50 approach. I still need the HBD to pull out every now and then and pay for stuff IRL. If that wasn't the situation I'd go 100% PU
HBD is a good piggy bank with money quickly available if necessary.

Well since I'm trying to build my HivePower to a sizable amount I just take my earnings as they come. Whatever I earn I like to power up but if I earn HBD I just let it keep growing.
A while backe I attempted to add to my savings and I did 10Hvie to HBD so I could save it and only got like 2 HBD. I don't know what happened during the transaction but after that I never attempted again. maybe in the future when my HBD grows a little more, I'll try it again.
I like to earn as much as I can and in as many ways as I can too.

Currently growing my Hive Power as much as possible. It is growing slowly. Also adding to 1 up.
It goes slowly at the beginning, but be persistent and you will see the results! We have all been there...
Thanks for your response. I am still learning a lot about Hive and everything that comes with it. It is a lot. Slowly I see some growth. I had a big curation which give me a decent amount of SPT and Oneup but not yet have gotten some large Hive upvotes, I try to use everything I have to support other channels like Liotes and other Hivers by delegating.

I place more value on my Hive Power overall... but I !LUV the HBD savings option, and I take advantage when the price is right. When #HIVE gets way above $1, I opt for the savings account. Then I convert my HBD when Hive is way below $1.
I hope I made it in time for the mission! :)

That's the right attitude! Most of people are doing it in reverse and lose time and money while building their portfolio... Sell high, buy low! :)
Precisely. Contrarian mindsets often see more clearly... when the news starts telling you that something is headed for the moon, sell it ASAP. But if they're ragging on something else-- talking about what a train wreck it is-- it would probably be a good time to buy (if everything checks out after DYOR). 🤔
So I guess the moral of the story is: being unpopular can be profitable! !LOL

i am doing both.
I move part of my HBD i earn from posts to savings every week to earn interest
Hive earned from posts is all powered-up. The liquid hive earned, i power-up on the power-up day.
All goes towards my goals to reach dolphin.
That's a good move... Now, with higher APR for HBD savings, it would be a challenge to pick the "right side" 😃

I have a small account so I prefer to go for HP at the moment but I'll get more HBD later when I feel like I have enough HP.
Priorities are important and I think that you did yours well!
