It's hard to believe the year is already half over. Doesn't it feel like it's speeding up every day? I know I've mentioned it before, but as a child time seemed to go by so slowly. As an adult the years just seem to fly on by. I guess the moral of the story is to enjoy life while it lasts because it sure is short!

For those of you in Canada, Happy Canada Day! It's nice to have a three day weekend. Here the 4th of July falls on a Thursday, so no long weekend for most of us here in the US.

It is Hive Power Up Day today, and I powered up the minimum. There are a couple reasons for this, first I tend to power up randomly throughout the month. Secondly I just helped launch a new token, I'll share more about that in a minute. I'm still shooting for 5K HP by year's end, and I'm trying to do organically. This way I can encourage onboarding because if I can pull it off, I think anyone can.

For the last couple of months I have partnered up with @bitcoinman and @bulliontools to create a new token for the Hive Onboarding Committee (HOC). As a group we are trying to encourage onboarding into the Hive ecosystem which is not an easy feat as many of you already know. We've seen many new people give up as they became frustrated by the lack of support. This was the genesis of our new token, DUO.

What Does DUO Do?

First and foremost DUO's curation account provides quality curation to new Hive members and to DUO stake holders that have 200 or more DUO staked. By purchasing and staking DUO you not only reward yourself, but you help to onboard and retain new members to grow the Hive ecosystem. Our goal is to encourage new members to grow their account and succeed. As they succeed they will spread the word to their friends and family, because there is no better salesman than a personal success story.

Dividends

As a stakeholder your benefits don't end with curation. During the first month all HBD and tokens paid will be converted to Hive Power. Thereafter, as posts pay out 90% of all HP, HBD, and Hive Engine will be sold and paid out in the form of daily Hive dividends to those who own staked DUO tokens according to the amount they have staked. The other 10% goes toward Hive Power so that the DUO curation account will grow slowly over time offering better curation votes. But you reap the majority of the benefits!

Tipping

Who doesn't love tipping tokens? So one more benefit of DUO that will soon be available is the ability to tip posts with quality content. Tipping levels are determined by the amount of DUO you have staked according to the breakdown below:

500 staked tips 0.1 (1x/day)
1k staked tips 0.2 (1x/day)
5k staked tips 0.3 (1x/day)
10k staked tips 0.5 (2x/day)

Tipping is a great way to share the love here on Hive!

As a member of #silvergoldstackers I couldn't resist adding this in!

How to Buy DUO?

They are available on Hive Engine and Tribaldex for 0.5 Hive each for the first 20,000 tokens. After the first tranche sells out 40,000 will become available at 1 Hive a piece. The next tranche of 60,000 will sell at 1.5 Hive a piece, and the final tranche of 80,000 will be offered at 2 Hive each. The early adopters get a significant discount, so be sure to pick them up before they are up to two Hive!

All proceeds from the token sales will be converted to Hive Power for use in curation. You can purchase them by using the links below.

We've been working hard on this project for quite awhile now, and it feels great to see it come to fruition. It's a win/win project for new members and DUO stakeholders alike. Please feel free to ask any questions and you can see the white paper here:

We're hoping we can help get some new blood into Hive, it's needed rather badly if we want prices to improve. Hopefully we can make a big difference!

I think this is a good start! I hope it can draw people to Hive!👍
Right now, the markets are kind of stuck in limbo. Usually when the alts start pumping, people will get more interested!😇

The problem with that is the people who come in when the market is hot tend to be fair weather friends and quickly vanish at the first big nose dive of BTC or an alt coin!

Very true …we have watched this play out several times with crypto and Hive….
I’ve noticed during these times people stop commenting. Then eventually, the market turns around, and you see an explosion of post and comments…..
Human nature Lol!😇🤣

I used to power up randomly and back in the day too, lol, I don't quite see the thrill anymore, but unfortunately I don't do that anymore, I just do it when it the beginning of every month.

I feeling I understand... Having some liquid Hive is always smart in case it has a real rally at some point to make some profits off of it.

Ever since I read about DUO, one burning question keeps popping up in my head, what does DUO stand for as the name of the other initiative is Hive Onboarding Commission so I'd expect a HOC token lol. I can't find it in the whitepaper either, please enlighten me!

DUO rolls off the tongue better than HOC! How's your little one doing?

DUO definitely rolls the tongue better, but why is it not explained in the whitepaper what it means? It explains the divs etc but not the abbreviation :) I'm sure I'm not the only curious one lol.

Thanks for clarifying, now I can rest lol.

She's great thanks, we had a swim as soon as the pool opened today because the UV index gets really high during the day and I don't want to be in there when it's at the top. My back was hurting as well so I figured it's a win win to go swimming early and it was great.

How are you though?

Was better yesterday but this morning it flared up a little. I'll try to calm it down with more meds... Too bad your back isn't doing better.

Avoiding peak hours is always a good idea, and sunblock isn't ever a bad idea either. I burn easily since my heritage is all northern European!

Haha, well once I have a good first layer of coloured skin, I'm usually ok but in the hottest month(s) of the year, I know that a sunburn is achieved easily. I would hate having to stay out of the sun for days before it heals so best to be smart. I see most locals in the pool peak hours and wonder how on earth do you not all burn alive lol.

I'm getting a nice tan by now, which is lovely as I know it will last quite long if I keep this up..

I use factor 50 as that's the best sunscreen we have but once these run out, probably not this summer though, I want to try and make a badge of sun protection myself. As I hate throwing good things out, I will not do it before these are empty :)

I don't worry about being tan anymore, I probably should since I live in southern California! I use sunblock because I don't need new sun damage on top of the old sun damage from my younger years!

Oh no, it's not that I worry about it but I think I look better with a tan. Just definitely not one of these people who lay on the beach or at the pool all day to get fried. Oof, nope. After 1 hour, if the kid is lucky, 1,5 hours, I'm fed up usually. But with the pool opening in the morning/afternoon and later in the evening, there's plenty of time to take a dip :)

I wish I didn't do my skin as much damage as I did back in the younger years, so I hear you. Luckily with age comes wisdom, ha! :)

Nice job on your power up. I had to draw the line on the DUO token. If I keep throwing money at every new token I am going to be broke!
