Follow Friday - New CUB in the den

in #hive4 years ago

Got that Friday feeling? It is the end of the working week for many of us and also when I do #FollowFriday most weeks. It is my opportunity to share some thoughts on what has been happening around #Hive and to suggest some people to check out.

This week saw $Hive stay relatively high. Mind you, I just looked and there is a lot of red on @coingecko. I keep hoping we can get enough buzz going about Hive (need more bee analogies) to get more people interested in investing and getting involved.

launching CUB. A lot of this financial stuff goes over my head and there is a lot of use of buzzwords that may not mean much to many of us, but it seems to have people excited.The big news this week was @leofinance

here as they will expire in a few days. Then you can stake them here to earn something. I have made 0.033 CUB in just a few hours via this 'den'. The APR seems crazy, but I will take what I can get. Ervin helped me out with some BNB as you need that to pay for transactions. I assume we can buy it somewhere.I saw that I had been allocated some CUB on Hive Engine. I had some help from @bozz and @ervin-lemark to work out what to do with it. You have to create an appropriate wallet and convert the tokens

Den

I recommend reading the document and to check out what people are posting about it. There ought to be a checklist of what you need to do and a glossary of what the various terms mean.

So to the 'meat' of #FollowFriday. I have not seen anyone else do these posts lately. If you do then let me know so I can vote and share them.

  • @amy-explores is an British urban explorer brought here by @slobberchops. It can be tough for new people to get into how Hive works and a lot of work for their 'mentors'. We should do what we can to help the newbies as they may struggle and make some mistakes.
  • @seabass-n-broc is also new hear. He is a fellow guitarist.
  • @the-bitcoin-dood is the one responsible for me being here, so he deserves a follow, especially if you like cryptocurrency news. He is also into his music.
  • weight loss challenge contest that could win you some $Hive. Can you guess how much he will lose this month?@edb has a
  • warns us to looks out for phishing scams. It seems a lot of accounts have been compromised to send out junk comments. Be careful with your keys!@shawnlauzon

I am always on the look-out for people to add to the Brit List, so let me know of any you find.

Hive five!

Thanks for the mention! And I had no idea the APY was so high, I need to stake my 0.055 CUB fast 🤣

Sounds like you had a similar experience to mine with CUB. I was going to sell mine until @flauwy encouraged me to stake it in the den and gave me some BNB so I could do so. Sooooo kind. My plan is to compound it on Sunday, assuming I've made enough to cover the fees. 😁

I tend to think that if I don't immediately need the money from an airdrop I may as well see what happens. Hope it works out for you.

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

If you have liquid Leo you can wrap that to Bleo and then there is a swap function on the Cub Finance page so you can go from Bleo to BNB to have what you need for your claim and stake fees. With the price of Leo going up so much, it only takes one or two Leo wrapped to Bleo to keep you going for a couple of weeks.

Ah, that may be a solution. Thanks

It probably works:

Looks like the fee is being paid in the source asset.

Thank you so much for the mention @steevc 👌🏻

You are most welcome. I hope to see the urbex community grow on Hive.

Yes me to

thanks for the shoutout @stevec!! Very excited to be in this community. It seems like a lot of fun people are around here, and after a week and a half, it's nice to start discovering posts and content that are of interest to me. :)

I think you can find plenty around your interests. It's important to do what is fun rather than just trying to get votes if you plan to stick around.

BTW I'm @steevc which is intentionally mis-spelled.

I put all my little Cubs into the same Cub Deb (10X) ... I have no idea what the 10x means exactly. I have about 30 in there earning me about 1 Cub per day ( not 10X 30 = 300 ?) ... but will be less as the APR drops. ... I have no idea what the difference is between Compound and Harvest ... at 1st I clicked Compound , paid some more BNB, approved ... and nothing happened. Could not find an explanation anywhere .... so after 2 Cub collected I clicked Harvest ... the 2 Cub disappeared ... then I found them when I clicked the + button and I added them to my staked Cubs .... and paid a bunch more BNB with every action. It’s not very intuitive, and nobody can really explain how the Compound feature works ... not sure if I click “Compound” once and forget about it or every day or when ??? But no matter what I click I need to feed the Cub a bunch of BNB... they are hungry little buggers.

I think I'm in the same one. The compound adds what you have earned to your stake instead of taking it out. It seems everything uses up BNB, so I will need more of that.

I’m spending hundreds of BNB I think... better start tracking my expenses.

A lot of this financial stuff goes over my head and there is a lot of use of buzzwords that may not mean much to many of us,

I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling this way. Sometimes I feel like a dinasour here.

I've seen a lot of people talk about this CUB thing this week, better I better go and check my Hive Engine wallet now, not that I know what to do with them..... 🏃

I see you don't have much LEO, so you won't get that much CUB. I think people will buy them if you can't be bothered with all the hassle. It's a good thing there are so many helpful people around here or I would have given up.

Is it just me who has not done this CUB thing, I am beginning to wonder! !WINE
