I've just been reviewing the relative yields available within and around the Hive Ecosystem.
The main Vesting and opportunities I'm personally a fanboy of include:
- ZING
- Splinterlands
- Hive curation and HBDs!!!
- LEO options
- Hive-Engine pools (some of)
Approximate yields, ranked by return...
NB I reduced some of the yields below as they are OBVIOUSLY going to go down!
The various ZING options come out at number one. The ZING HIVE pool is the best, currently with a return of over 200% (reduced to 100% above), ZING stake is currently over 40% (Reduced to 30% above) and if you delegate HP to the @holozing account you get a 30% return, reduced to 25% above.
These returns won't last, we are currently in full FOMO mode I believe with this game, which is still in pre-release, but for now it's the BEST return on HIVE, and a real advert for holding HIVE POWER!
Splinterlands options are next.. with LAND set to SPS and the pools giving a decent 30% return, the only problem here is if yer into land you are looking at a relatively large Vest required - you need land, plus DEC, plus cards.
Interestingly the SPS returns and card returns alone are only yielding at around 12%, but BOOSTED with DEC and LAND, that trebles.
I guess this shows the value of LAND!
Again, LAND is really in pre-release mode, it's very early days.
HBD and Hive curation are mainstays, the backbone of the entire Hive ecosystem. If you add the HIVE curation plus the 3% curation you get a return of 10-11% which is awesome for a main-coin.
With HBDs I've lowered the APR to 15% given that this has to come down sometime soon, this remains one of the most appealing aspects of HIVE IMO.
Some of the Hive-Engine pools come next on my fave list - with the HIVE-BXT pool being something I am planning on going into a little harder, and the HIVE-MATIC pool too, big fan of that one! 18% and 8% yields respectively.
Finally we have LEO delegation, a 14% return or something like that and then LEO curation at 5%, not the best but I'm keeping the faith!
Personal Vesting strategies for 2024...
I think I've got a decent stack of both Hive and HBDs and SL assets.
For me 2024 on Hive is going to be all about stacking more of the following:
- Assets in the SL pools, I think these offer some FANTASTIC returns!
- ZING stacking, I'm gonna keep my delegation relatively high.
- Stacking more in the HE pools, mainly the HIVE-BXT pool and the Hive-Matic pool...
