Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2024 - Unannounced Bonus Reward

in #proofofbrainlast year (edited)

On this very first day of the New 2024, and as a small Christmas gift, we wanted to give you a tiny kick-start for the beginning of this New Year in the form of POB tokens that we sent to all VOCUP token holders earlier today.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2024 - Unannounced Bonus Reward

800 POB tokens were distributed among VOCUP token holders concerning their respective token holdings, according to the snapshot of token holders taken on December 31st, 2023, at midnight (UTC), in the amounts shown in the table below.

Here is also the screenshot from our Hive-Engine wallet of sent rewards.

You might ask...

Why POB token?

In case you didn't know, and as far as we understood, the POB (Proof Of Brain) token was created as a second layer token that would mimic Bitcoin performance on the Hive blockchain.

The token was issued in February 2021 (almost three years ago), and its maximum supply is only 21M tokens. By the time we are writing this, something less than 7,4M (7,386,955.54623868) tokens have been mined. It means there are still more than 13.6M tokens to be mined.

How to mine POB tokens?

In contrast to Bitcoin, you don't need some expensive equipment that will consume lots of (expensive) power or be skilled and knowledgeable enough to set up your Bitcoin miner to work.
All you need (as for every other second layer Hive token) is the following.

  • To publish your (Hive) posts through the Proof Of Brain interface or just by using #proofofbrain or #pob tags.
  • To stake POB token and curate (upvote) others' published posts and comments that are published under one of the above-mentioned tags.

Where is the catch?

At the moment, 50 POB tokens are mined approximately every 10 minutes. It's about 300 POB tokens per hour or 7,200 POB tokens per day to grab.

The catch is that those mining rewards are set to decrease by 50% every 4 years. In other words, sometime in February 2025, those mining rewards would fall to 150 POB tokens per hour or 3,600 POB tokens per day.

Currently, the token sells for 0.01259 HIVE (lowest ASK price) or buys for 0.01030201 HIVE (highest BID price) per 1 POB, which we find pretty cheap.

However, if the POB token would mimic Bitcoin's performance history as planned (and we all know what happens when Bitcoin halves - the price goes up), the same price increase might also happen to the POB token.

Therefore, we believe the following 14 months are crucial, as after that, we won't have a chance to mine as many POB tokens as we do now, and which tokens then may easily cost twice as much as they cost today.

Of course, this is not financial advice but just our belief, so you are free to do whatever you want with the POB rewards you received from us and your POB tokens in general.

However, before making any decision, we also encourage you to do your due diligence. One of the places to begin with might be the following post, "Introducing Proof of Brain Token (POB) – Whitepaper."

We would also like to hear your thoughts!

This is nice to see
Welcome to a new year

Thank you! 🙂

I never knew that POB has a front end
This is nice and I’d also give it a try

Yeah, many things are happening in the Hive blockchain, and sometimes, it's hard to catch up with everything. But looking at it from the brighter side, it's also a chance for every one of us to learn something new every day. 😉😀

However, we just checked your wallet and see that you are currently holding 214.84269131 POB (in liquid POB). Most likely, you were not even aware that you had collected those tokens.
So, if you are planning to publish your future posts using #proofofbrain or #pob tag, and especially if you are planning to curate (upvote) posts and comments published under those tags, it would be wise that you stake those tokens. That way, you would be able to mine (collect) more of them.

You can stake those tokens in two ways.

  1. Logging in your Hive-Engine Wallet or by
  2. Logging in your Wallet at Proof Of Brain interface

Both of those you can access normally with your Hive keys (or, i.e., with HiveKeychain).

The beauty of those second-layer tokens, such as POB, is that you can continue using the interface you were using by now (if you like it or are familiar with it more), and just by adding the right tags to your posts (or paying attention to posts of others that use them) you can actually "milk two cows" with one go. Meaning, and for this concrete case, your posts would simultaneously earn HIVE coin and POB tokens. Or, when it comes to curating (upvoting others' posts & comments), you would also earn the curation reward in both. How much, of course, depends on how much HIVE coin you have in stake (so-called Hive Power) and as well as how many POB tokens you have in stake (in POB Power).

However, we hope you'll have some use of all this information! 🙂

What's happening here?😮

Good afternoon[my time]
I think I need to come learn at your desk very soon. I saw you in my domain so I had to trace you to yours and I'm seeing things I don't even know and I see a person patient enough to teach things like staking that I don't know how to do, and so on.
I have noted you sire.

My regards.

hahaha - Well, nothing special is happening here. 😀
But if you think that we shared some info that might be helpful to you, we are glad. 😀
However, don't hesitate to ask if you have some questions and think we might know the answer. We will tell you if we know the answer; if not, we will both need to search for it elsewhere. 😉

Okay thanks for the willingness to assist. As I said before, I saw new things..

Best regards sire.
