It's time for an update on how things are going with DUO! In this update there is a lot of great news to share.

Big news

The first trench was sold out today that's 20k DUO! Moving forward 40,000 DUO are up for sale at the new price of 1 hive each for the second trench, We want to thank everyone that has been supporting the project so far and we will continue to do our best to stick to our mission and to provide you all as well as hive with value.

Curation requirements

DUO and the HOC (Hive Onboarding Committee) are committed to growing hive and in an effort to avoid supporting people abusing the chain and to prevent the project from being threatened beyond the DUO staking requirements.

In order to be eligible for curation a DUO stacker (minimum 200 DUO staked) must also

Not be on a blacklist for example with hive watchers.

HP Growth

@duo-curator is currently sitting at 9,998.808 HP!

Everything has been powered up to this point. We'll be staking all Hive-Engine tokens earned through July to create a baseline for curation. After that, 90% of all tokens, HBD, etc earned will be sold off and paid out as dividends. 10% will be powered up in order to grow the project.

Right now, nothing has been delegated to the HOC account while we're still growing the project. We didn't set an exact timeline for this, but we will announce this change once it's effective.

Dividends

The dividends test turned out great and as stated in the white paper the daily dividends will be starting August 1st.
you must stake at least 200 DUO to receive dividends.

500 staked tips 0.1 (1x/day)
1k staked tips 0.2 (1x/day)
5k staked tips 0.3 (1x/day)
10k staked tips 0.5 (2x/day)
