Yes, I used to do that with that dust-fluffer bot, and I probably should again at some point. Interesting, and yes, it is almost certainly because of the Hive-node issues. πππβ¨π€

You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The #dustbunny bot's Hive account is heavily struggling with fluffing all those dust votes, as seen with its Voting Power having been less than 80% since more or less a year ago. π€π€― That's as opposed to #dustsweeper whose VP is just sitting at 100% (for which I want to suggest to give away some as "bonus" votes for its users). πΈπ€―π€

The poor bugger. I should delegate more, though I'm more than a little overextended at the moment. I delegate to the other fluffer bot too, and it sends me some HIVE, and sometimes HBD, regularly. πππβ¨π€

When the price of HIVE rises significantly again, it would take off a lot of dust-fluffing load from the #dustbunny bot !INDEED. π€π§ββοΈπ€π€

I really hope that the fiat price of HIVE does rise again, as it's been in a downtrend since 2021, and it's dangerously close to $0.08. If it goes below that price, very unpleasant things will likely happen on Hive. π π π β¨ π€

We can !HOPE that if ever the price of the HIVE token goes to its all-time-low (ATL), then people on (and off) Hive will buy huge amounts of that token (whether manually or automatically), preventing the price of the token from staying at its ATL for long periods of time (and also hopefully have a significant and prolonged surge in price). π€π€π

That is my hope for sure, though there are certain dynamics on Hive which don't make that very likely. I'm more than a little concerned at the moment for Hive's future. πππβ¨π€

While buying more HIVE tokens at these prices is likely the most helpful method in helping Hive right now, only a small percentage of people on Hive are able (and/or willing) to do that, so supporters of Hive should have more knowledge of how to help Hive in ways that don't involve spending fiat money or other cryptocurrency coins/tokens for it. π€π§ββοΈπΈπ€―π€

The "other bot" to the "dust fluffing" #dustbunny bot is the "dust sweeping" #dustsweeper bot. ππ
It's !INDEED a source of HIVE (and sometimes HBD when out of HIVE) to delegate Hive Power to the #dustsweeper's Hive account, though the daily amount received by each delegator heavily depends on how many users of that service top up their dust-sweeping balance for the previous day. π€π§ββοΈπΈπ€―π€

I know. Thank you for stating the obvious again.
I haven't sent it any HIVE in quite a long time, and I still receive useful amounts of HIVE and/or HBD. π π π β¨ π€

You just said
the other fluffer boton your previous comment, so I mentioned that you were referring to the #dustsweeper bot !INSTEAD. π€π§ββοΈπ€―A #dustsweeper user can delegate (a good amount of) Hive Power to the dust-sweeping Hive account, then set a recurring transfer of HIVE (or HBD) there, so that the user can get their dust votes swept with minimal supervision. π€ππ

Again, I know, since there are only two fluffer bots...lol!
Yes, that's true, and I've thought about doing that, but I need all my HIVE to power up. πππβ¨π€

Other people on Hive might say "two sweeper bots" !INSTEAD! π€π€―π€£
It might help you in the long term to use the #dustsweeper service to sweep all your dust votes (even only those incoming so that you can save HIVE while still helping the curators of your comments to have their dust votes swept too). π€π§ββοΈπ€
