Sorry, but that is just not correct. You don't get any dividend after a week if you delegate.
You get nothing. That is why there are delegation services like DLease. The delegatee (receiver) needs to pay up front, and the service pays out a daily amount to the delegator. The service is the middleman that automates the payout.
If I just delegate you any amount of Hive Power, I get literally ZERO return on that.
I'm curious about delegation. Looking to delegate around 1000 Hive. Whom would you suggest as a safe, short term investment & might I make any money off of it?
There are people who want a delegation. And delegators can fill those requests (called leases).
The site makes money of a small fee that is added to the amount that the requestor will pay.
If you fill a lease there, you get a daily payout.check out https://hive.dlease.io/market
Many thanks, for the prompt and helpful reply. Off to check it out, Luddite that I am, hope I can figure it out & make a clever choice :)
You can get 12.69 HIVE for leasing out 1000 HIVE for a month (152,28 for a year). The fee that they keep is 10% I think.
The APR (applied to a year) is 14.04.% for doing nothing other than letting your money work for you. I'd say that is a good deal if you are not a good curator or don't have the time.
I’m sorry I don’t understand the math... Is that 12 Hive per day, week, month?
I signed up & cancelled (losing 24 Hive).
How did you lose 24 Hive, I am not sure if that is even possible.
What do you mean with sign up? You just need to login with keychain and fill a lease on the site.
Why did you cancel?
12 per months with a daily payout of 0,46.
So, 144 hive a year?
Phew 24 Hive was just returned to me:
Received from dlease23.990 HIVE

Your request was successfully cancelled, you get your 24 HIVE back. We deducted a cancellation fee to pay for the memos of 0.01 HIVE! If applicable, try resubmitting with a higher APR and split your request into easier to fill chunks of 1000 HP or less.

Thank you, for your patience with me,

You seem to be really confused. You told me you wanted to lease out your HP for a reward. And now you requested more HP... If you request HP you get zero reward, you have to pay...
Checked it out & it looks like what I'd make in 4 weeks is less than fees I'd pay...
