POSH PETS NFT is finally moving along
After much planning and talking, we may have found a way to get the POSH PETS NFT started soon and things are falling into place. We have been in contact with the team over at @hashkings to possibly create an open source generative randomizer tool for POSH PETS NFT and of course any future generative profile pic NFT projects that may appear on Hive. This may be a big deal considering @peakd recently added the "verified" sticker when you are using an NFT from projects like @punksonhive and artwork from @nftshowroom, thus having a framework where anyone with the help of a dev could easily create art and sell it in a "generative" randomized way could become a big thing on Hive, especially without all the extra network fees that plague the ETH network and the direct connection all accounts have with each other here on the social network. Hoping this goes through well and that the team gets all the praise and upvotes + donations they can get for creating this open source for all of Hive.
Our artist @astrocreator is currently busy mapping out how each of the accessories and assets are supposed to be ruled in to the tool and once that is done it will work as an example for the hashkings team to start working on it. Make sure to also check out the game if you haven't. I logged in the other day but have yet to find the time to dabble more into it, but if you are into growing things and also active in @dcrops you may probably enjoy it. Show some support for our Hive based dapps!
Hiveposh.com
is undergoing a major design rework. Right now it looks like this when logging into the website:
note that the rich list represents highest POSH earners, not buyers, this is important for @poshtoken to autovote only those vetted content creators who have earned POSH, not bought tokens
We have been in talks with the @hivecreators to redesign the place, possibly add a landing page that explains POSH simply and of course also adding a page for the upcoming POSH PETS NFT, thus things coming together nicely. If you aren't familiar with the work of @hivecreators, you should check out their account as they have done some amazing things such as https://whyhive.co/
We are very much looking forward to see the results with a dedicated design team behind it and to open the doors for more additions to hiveposh in the future.
Aside from the landing page, posh pets page and the existing posh earned list, connected accounts and latest POSH eligible tweets, we are also looking to add a way for Twitter accounts to authenticate and apply for a free Hive account that we will manually vet before we accept the account creation. This would enable Twitter users to earn POSH without even being a content creator on Hive but sharing Hive front-end posts to their followers onto Twitter. Some additional services on top of that could be for Twitter influencers to automatically sell their earned POSH for Hive they could pre-select to be sent to an address of their choice, this would come with a fee that would go back to @poshtoken.
@poshtoken
Talking about poshtoken, our dev @rishi556 is busy taking the bot apart to check if he can figure out why the Twitter API seems to randomly miss out on certain POSH eligible tweets and thus @poshtoken not leave a comment under the shared posts. It has been highly irregular and not left any errors from what I understand, thus it not being an issue on poshtoken's end but let's see what he finds. On top of that he has been adding some new small changes here and there to make the bot better.
I also wanted to take the time to discuss @poshtoken's holdings. As I have mentioned before I would like to see it become like it's own DAO at some point, aside from staking HP and HBD from the post rewards that will in one way or another go back to enforcing the token in the future I have also considered if it would start small to invest in other currencies on Hive. This is still some time off but reading some of blocktrades comments on HAF and some of my own plans I've had for the ocd community incubation there would be a good time to start dabbling with it soon, though this may have to become a post in its own at some point as there is a lot to discuss there and bring up some of my plans which I think my readers and the communities will like.
Until then we will be stacking coins and hope for some better market conditions eventually so that we can effectively put them to good use for growing the POSH token ecosystem with the goals of incentivizing more and more people to fill #web2 up with content posted on #web3. We are happy that many devs and other teams are working "cheaply" for posh right now knowing that the endgame for it is something that benefits Hive as a whole and those continuously sharing content on Twitter and maybe other #web2 platforms in the near future.
Poshtoken delegation
I have to shill this once more for those not aware of it. You can delegate Hive Power to @poshtoken for daily POSH rewards. 100 tokens are issued daily that go to delegators and a few people are taking advantage of that to grow their POSH bags, a few others (myself included) have also been buying up from the market but the liquidity is very small, not many sellers thus not many able to buy which is why we added this delegation service on top to be able to invest a bit daily into it rather than having to check the low volume market daily.
There are a total of 500 POSH tokens issued daily, 100 as mentioned go to delegators and 400 go to sharers, you can see the earned posh coins from each tweet in the daily post and also the delegation earnings. These numbers are not set in stone and may change at some point depending on what we think is fairer for everyone and what benefits POSH in the end more. At the same time @poshtoken is also adding buy orders on POSH consistently to build it's holdings, these tokens are reserved for the POSH PET NFT holders and POSH holders. Once the NFTs are released and being sold, those who get them will be able to get a share of daily POSH that have been purchased off of the market depending on their POSH holdings and what features their NFTs have and how many NFTs they have. You can look at it like staking but giving the NFTs more usecases and passive earnings which 99.9% of NFTs in the space lack.
The voting power of @poshtoken is used to autovote content creators who have earned POSH in the past by sharing Hive links on Twitter and being vetted by our curation team that they are creating decent content on Hive. Buying POSH does not get you on the autovote list, only earned POSH counts, if you are one of these users and not receiving @poshtoken autovotes yet you can request for adding you to the list in our Discord in the #posh-autovote-request channel.
If you have any questions about POSH or suggestions on how we can make thins better or improve on our current plans, please feel free to let us know here in the comments!
Fun: Yesterday I spent 30 Hive to buy a majority of the POSH. Just found it a bit funny how it affected the chart on tribaldex.com:
I was pretty rich there for a minute:
but like usual I ended up holding :p
There was of course no liquidity to sell any amount, not that I'm planning on it either way, but goes to show the need for "delegate to earn" feature that we added for passive investors. It is quite low risk as well as there will always be some Hive buying up the token, if not from me then from @poshtoken itself if you ever decide you want to sell what you have earned so far by delegating or sharing.
Until next post!
Awesome updates on Posh and Posh pets seems like a little cool bonus extra on top of an already rewarding program for social sharing of hive posts. Appreciate all the work 💪
Excellent initiative, but with the help of the hashkings team it will be a great project, I sign up to create nfts in the future.
Hi, howzit?! 🤙
I like how some of the animations look on the whyhive site.
That was interesting to see how the market looked after u bought your POSH..
:)
I haven't noticed @poshtoken being irregular either. I think the bot is one of the best I've seen on Hive so far.
Also, @hivecreators hasn't been very active here. I barely know what they're about. I see them on Twitter though.
Cool.
I hope the problem is resolved for those who ain't receiving (that includes me) Posh for their Twitter shares.
Well I have had problems with the Bot because although I share it on twitter I don't see the comment in my posts.
Have you made sure you are including the #hive tag and a hive link to the tweets? If yes you may be one of the 1% that are facing this unexplained issue that the dev is looking to resolve as we speak.
yes, I always include #hive and #posh in my tweets.
Okay, hopefully we get it sorted soon, it's unfortunate that this is happening, especially furstrating when it doesn't seem like it's a fault from our end :/
That's awesome news for sure! Can't wait for all the problems to be solved tho 😁
Pump it
The rewards earned on this comment will go directly to the people(@acidyo) sharing the post on Twitter as long as they are registered with @poshtoken. Sign up at https://hiveposh.com.
Those who will play on the effects of hive tokens in the posts about pets will have plenty for both animal lovers and writers, and our writers will think about it.
Looking forward to this update , everything on hive just keep 💗
Hey @acidyo. please if you can get someone to curate sports for the short term as waiting on laptop still. It is in for repairs and totally screwed at this point. Don't want to let the sports community down and if someone could please cover for the next week. Hoping for a speedy outcome but now waiting on parts.
Are we going to have CAT as one of the POSH Pets NFTs? Would like to own one. Would go with my LeoFinance profile since a Lion can't be a pet unless you are sheikh.
Yes, here is a little preview just for you ;)
PS. This one will be very rare.
Oooooo. Sexy xD At least I am lucky enough to see it before everyone else. Have got my eyes on it.
