Happy Sunday everyone! I got a bit of late start today so I'm diving into the giveaway first thing. This initiative has been going strong for 74 weeks now, hard to believe it's been that long. It seems like I started this up just yesterday and had four or five people entering each week. Times sure have changed! Last week I had a record 73 participants.
This week there was another very strong turnout with 64 participants, and I appreciate all of you! As long as you are all interested, I will keep this weekly giveaway train rolling down the tracks. This has gone from being my easiest weekly post to the most difficult and time consuming by far! If anyone is interested in sponsoring prizes please let me know, it always feels good to help someone else grow their account here on Hive!
And for today only, we have an extra bonus! @cositav has generously offered to sponsor two extra HSBI units for the first place winner. So today the prize will be a total of 7 HSBI, not too shabby! As a special thank you to @cositav , here are two bonus HSBI units on me!
I want to take a moment to thank @alohaed and @beelzael for being kind enough to sponsor some HSBI prizes for the winners of the regular spins number two through five. And @melinda010100 is kind enough to throw in an HSBI unit to the winner of the ARCHON tokens in Spin 6! Thank you everyone for all of your support!
And as always I want to leave more information on the other tokens that are up as prizes as well so you can check them out. I'm invested in all of these projects pretty heavily, just a disclaimer!
Questions about DUO or PIMP feel free to contact me.
PIMP is an awesome token created by a very cool cat @enginewitty . It's backed by physical silver and BTC, no other second layer token can boast that!
For more information on CCD tokens, they are the currency from @cryptocompany created by @powerpaul . Check out the website: https://cryptocompany.ceo/
For more information on BBH, a project from @bradleyarrow please check out the post: @hive-112281
Now for the summary of last week's responses about your favorite kind of cake!
Chocolate Cake
slurrp.com
Doesn't that look good? The majority of you preferred chocolate cake above all others. I love chocolate as well as long as it's rich and moist, nothing worse than dried out cake! Out of 64 participants 20 went with this option, more than I would have thought. Thanks to @suisver , @ronnie10 , @okarun , @lazzvi , @holdeck2 , @chaosmagic23 , @cositav , @sacra97 , @maiasun84 , @rosahermosa (with strawberries) , @roswelborges , @gatet (dark chocolate) , @blitzzzz , @borniet , @longganisan , @necho41 , @freed99 , @ikigaidesign , @rajpootg , @melinda010100 (German chocolate) and @miriammarga for this great recommendation!
Cheesecake
momdecake.blogspot.com
Cheesecake came in second place among participants. @enginewitty brought up the point that cheesecake really deserves it's own category, after thinking about it I agree. In life there are lumpers and splitters when it comes to things, I think on this one I'm a splitter! There are just so many different types are they are not all equal. Maybe today I'll have to do a question just about cheesecake... Thank you for this great recommendation by @henruc , @silvertop , @servelle , @ekavieka , caramel @friendlymoose , @jorgebgt , and @vaynard86 (NY Cheesecake.)
Red Velvet Cake
thecakegirls.com
This is an excellent cake that can be incredible when made correctly. I have to admit it's always among my favorites, although I haven't had any in some time. Living alone I'm certainly not going to cook one for myself! Thanks for this great recommendation by @silverd510 , @amma1 , @enginewitty , @lanzjoseg and @ozd (Vanilla and Red Velvet with Whipped Cream.)
Donauwelle
This was a recommendation by @flummi97 who was kind enough to provide the above image. Doesn't that look good? I definitely wouldn't mind trying that one out, I've never had anything quite like it before. How about anyone else? Ever tried this out?
Russischer Zupfkuchen
This recommendation and picture came from @dailyspam , thank you! It's a type of cheesecake that comes with chocolate dough on top, it looks pretty good to me. Maybe one of these days I'll come across it in a restaurant and try it out!
For the sake of time the rest I will have to do in list form. I would love to talk about all of them, but this post is already way too long!

Now for today's entry question:
I'm going to define cheesecake as a whole separate category thanks to the idea by @enginewitty . What is your favorite kind of cheesecake?
The Giveaway
I will be giving out one prize of five (5) HSBI. Second and Third prizes will be 1.5 DUO tokens, the token I recently launched with @bulliontools and @bitcoinman . It offers those who stake sufficient tokens daily curation on quality posts, dividends, and a tipping bot. It also helps to onboard and retain new Hive members. At the end of the post there is a link to the white paper and where to purchase the tokens. Fourth prize is 100 BBH tokens. Fifth prize will be 250 CCD tokens. Sixth prize is 10 ARCHON tokens. To participate you need a reputation level of at least 25 and bots cannot win. And please one entry per person to make it fair to everyone.
I currently have sponsors who also kick in some HSBI units to the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth regular spin winners. None on the bonus spins. The sponsors can still enter the giveaway, however, if they happen to win on one of the spins they sponsor I will re-spin the wheel for another winner. You can't sponsor HSBI units to yourself!
If you would like to be placed on a weekly reminder list just let me know and I'll make sure you get tagged each week.

How to Enter
Every week this will change. I'm looking for engagement rather than just saying "I am in". There is no need to upvote or re-blog, although if you choose to do so I would appreciate it. This week's question is: What is your favorite kind of cheesecake?
HSBI
If you are unfamiliar with the prize you can learn more here:
Or check out my recent post:
@thebighigg/hsbi-what-are-they-my-experience-and-a-starter-guide
Choosing the Winners
All valid entries will be placed on the Wheel of Names and I will spin it four times. The first prize will be 5 HSBI units. The second and third prize will be 1.5 DUO tokens. Fourth prize will be 100 BBH tokens. Fifth prize will be 250 CCD tokens. Sixth prize will be 10 ARCHON tokens. And since I am spinning the same wheel over and over it is theoretically possible for the same person to win all of prizes! Although I have yet to see it happen, maybe this week?
Deadline
One week from today which will be Sunday August 17, 2025 at 8 A.M. California Pacific Time.
