It's hard to believe in Sunday again, but it is. That means yet again it's time for my Sunday giveaway post. The past couple days we had some exciting new over at DUO token as the second tranche of tokens sold out. The third tranche is up for sale but the price is now 1.5 Hive each, it came faster than any of us expected. I will have to cut back on how much DUO I give out each week now as it become more expensive!
This week we had 47 participants, as players have increase I've also increased the number of prizes given out to increase your odds of winning a prize. All five regular spin winners will continue to receive HSBI units thanks to the support of two generous Hive members @alohaed and @beelzael . They have been adding bonus HSBI to second through fifth place winners, thanks again guys for your generosity!
The contest now has more prizes than just HSBI and DUO. There is also some BBH, CCD, and UNICOIN. Typically the tokens I give out come from my own personal stack. However, @cryptounicorn420 has gifted me some UNICOINs to use in giveaways. So thank you very much @cryptounicorn420 and her @uni-coin project. Once you have one complete token it can be exchanged for an HSBI unit, and they can be earned by delegating HP to the project or by receiving 0.0025 UNICOINs from the tip bot.
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 both of these projects pretty heavily, just a disclaimer!
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
Let's see some of the results from last week's entry question. It was what is your favorite game? I left it very open to see what kind of results we would get. I'm sorry if some of you found that hard, but it makes thing interesting!
Monopoly
videostopjasper.com
This classic board game has been around for many, many years. First published in 1935 this has been enjoyed by families and friends for near a century. The only downfall is it can be a very long game at times, but it's still fun! I haven't played this one in years (or any board game come to think of it.) Thanks to @thisismylife , @bigorna1 and @blitzzzz for choosing this classic.
FIFA Soccer Video Game Series
wallpaperaccess.com
Started back in 1993 this series had produced several games over the years that have been fan favorites. Sadly, in 2022 the licensing agreement from FIFA was terminated and so new games are going to be produced. But those with the older games will continue to play them, that's why it's nice to own a disk over a downloaded game! lol
Thanks for this fun pick by @vaynard86 , @ekavieka and @monsterbuster .
Mario Bros
geometrydash.io
This popular game series all started with Donkey Kong in 1981 where Mario was on of the main characters. From there in 1983 Mario Bros. was released and in 1985 it was released for the Nintendo console. I had one way back then and I loved playing the game! More and more games have been produced over the years and is still very popular. They are still fun to play!
Thanks for choosing this classic @yusmelys , @cositav and @ladymisa !
Soccer/ Football/ Futbol
scientificamerican.com
This one came in with three picks as well as all of the games so far today. The World Cup is starting soon for 2026 and I'm sure all the fans are excited. I know some games are in Los Angeles, California, I won't be going. I avoid driving to Los Angeles like the plague because traffic is horrible! Thanks for this pick by @ronnie10 , @olaf.gui and @caspermoeller89 .
Splinterlands
publish0x.com
Not a surprising pick as we are all here on Hive. I haven't played any of the new cards as of yet, and waiting to see how pricing on them comes out. I didn't purchase any new packs, just too much risk on the cards you might get. I've played this game since before Chaos came out and waiting to see how Conclave plays out. Thanks for a great choice by @pablito.saldo , @moonthumb and @stefano.massari !
Risk
boardgamereviewed.com
This classic board game introduced in 1957 lets players battle to conquer the world. Every time I think of this game now it reminds me so much of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer and Newman were playing Risk. Neither would trust the other not to cheat while taking breaks. Here's a clip if you're interested, it's hilarious!
Great pick by @servelle and @florakese .
And to round out the other choices we had Monkey Island by @gwajnberg and @beelzael . Snakes and Ladders was chosen by @lumpiadobo . JRPG Dragon Quest was the favorite of @dewabrata and a good game of paint ball was a great one by @alexvan . Another real world sport pick was cricket by @imfarhad and @hafiz34 .
Then for some card games we had Texas Hold'em picked by @tengolotodo and poker by @gatet . Uno was one of the favorites by @okarun . Then some domino action with Mexican Train picked by @silvertop . Then there were some online games like Minecraft by @tortangkahoy and Roblox by @longganisan .
Then we had some more games like Hearthstone by @henruc and Helldivers 2 by @flummi97 . Brawl Stars was picked by @suisver , and Project Zomboid by @holdeck2 . League of Legends was picked by @hatdogsensei and Settlers of Catan from @doombot75 .
The last few I'll leave in list form since I'm running short of time this morning!

There was a lot of variety in that one, but it was interesting!
Now for today's entry question...
Today is World Ocean Day so let's go with an ocean related question.
What is your favorite ocean dwelling creature?
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. 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, and fifth 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 ocean dwelling creature?
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. And since I am spinning the same wheel four times in a row it is theoretically possible for the same person to win all four prizes! Although I have yet to see it happen, maybe this week?
Deadline
One week from today which will be Sunday June 15, 2025 at 8 A.M. California Pacific Time.
