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€

Presently, aside from buying HIVE, converting HBD to HIVE would also be very good. πππβ¨π€

That's a good idea, though that sounds like simply using HBD to "buy" HIVE, only that HBD that is converted will always be treated as exactly $1.00 in fiat currency, and the 3.5 days waiting time applies. 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€

They might indeed, as is their prerogative.
Yes, I know, and that's why I've thought about beginning to send some HIVE to it again regularly. Perhaps soon. πππβ¨π€

If there's a Hive Hard Fork that will drastically reduce the value of dusted votes down to 0.001 HIVE/HBD, then the #dustsweeper and #dustbunny services would still be needed but surely no longer as much. π€π§ββοΈ Anyway, your "quick typing fingers" made you type a comma !INSTEAD of a period at the end of the first sentence of your comment. π€―π
If anyone on Hive would delegate the #dustbunny Hive account a huge amount of Hive Power (such as 10,000 HP), then the dust-fluffer bot would be able to fluff those dust votes significantly more efficiently. π€ππ
