Sorry for the late answer :D
I understand the reference, its a good start and if you can support the community more power to you dude :D
I think its a winning strategy long term, but its kinda hard to calculate if you ask me xD
Oh God, I must have really screwed up if I got a reply from one of the big boys
I am far from one of the big boys, but thanks for the compliment! :P
haha.... Not so hard to calculate. Spend 1 Hive. Curate until the lease runs out. Check how much money is in the account :)
If it is more than the 1 Hive I spent I made money. If it is more than 0.5 Hive then between myself and those I upvoted we win. If it is less than 1 Hive...then I screwed up. hehe
You will always almost lose Hive on Curation if you lease it xD
Standard Curation is 8% and if you lease it in for an 9% Apr, then you have lost 1% compared to just powering the Hive up.
Buuuuut, thats just short term, long term its worth it if you ask me, since you also get the hive inflation (3%)
Hmm... I thought the inflation still went to the original owner not the delegatee ... then again that's the whole point of this account :) See how things work out in the long run :)
Well, yes. If HP you lease from someone THAT hp goes back to the owner.
But the HP you earn from Curation, is yours and you get that inflation
