Yes. Delegation is like a loan. You still own your own HP, but you are loaning / delegating some of it to another account to use. You can cancel the delegation at any time but it takes a week for the delegation to end.
Some accounts pay you back for your delegation.

It makes total sense now. Loan is the word I was looking for to understand. Thank you 🙏

You’re welcome.

I got some hive from Ecency today 👍🏻

Cool.

I can see you delegating to Ecency now. Check your wallet in about 10 hours to see what they paid you.

Yes, just started to delegate to Ecency when you told me to.
