Indeed, very little people actually own WORKERBEE, as there is not that much obvious value to owning it at first sight. Or the value is created outside the staking (as @tydynrain proves in his next comment ;-) )

If @borniet can encourage you to stake more WORKERBEE, then your vote on his #HiveEngine Witness will have a greater effect! 💸😆😎

I know, that's the whole point in growlng it, along with the BEE it generates. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

That shows that (staked) WORKERBEE has two purposes, one to increase the power of votes for #HiveEngine Witnesses, and one to earn a steady supply of BEE tokens. 😎 That's very similar to Hive Power which helps increase voting power (for curation, Hive Witnesses, and Hive Proposals), as well as a steady supply of additional HP. 🤓

Yep, and I need a whole lot of WORKERBEE. It is somewhat similar, just wish that WORKERBEE had as many uses as HP. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

That reminds me of some people on Hive that have found good reasons to Power Down and convert nearly all of their Hive Power (along with their HIVE and HBD tokens) to #HiveEngine tokens. 🧘♂️😅

Well, while there are some great layer-2 tokens, that's a very imbalanced investment. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

I think that many of them are okay with the (increased) risks associated with investing on #HiveEngine tokens instead of Hive Power (and the more stable HBD, which earns in Savings). 🧘♂️🤓

I try to keep some middle ground between growing my BEE:WORKERBEE shares and my staked WORKERBEE, as I want to be in a more safe spot in the rankings for the Hive Engine witness as well :-)

It looks like @tydynrain doesn't have to "keep a middle ground" for his WORKERBEE tokens because he himself doesn't run a #HiveEngine Witness node, though I still told him that having more (staked) WORKERBEE tokens can help him support your own Hive Engine Witness node more! 😅
He’s playing it more strategically with his BEE & WORKERBEE ;-)

Perhaps a good balance is to just stake enough WORKERBEE tokens to keep @borniet's #HiveEngine Witness node at least at Rank 20, then put the rest in WORKERBEE liquidity pools !INDEED. 🤯🤓

That's a cool idea, but that would be a huge expenditure for that many WORKERBEE tokens, which is not feasible at the moment. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

If Bjorn's #HiveEngine Witness node is somewhere below Rank 30 (which is quite far from Rank 20), then it would be okay if the supporters of his node don't prioritize increasing their WORKERBEE tokens (yet). 🧘♂️🤓

I'll just keep growing my WORKERBEE until the time when the quantity is useful for voting. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Perhaps only people on Hive who operate #HiveEngine Witness nodes and/or those who really like to support other HE nodes know the importance of WORKERBEE tokens !INDEED. 🤯🤓

Yes indeed, I suppose so. I must admit I didn’t know about WORKERBEE until I learned about Hive-Engine Witnesses. Then I bought some to support one of those witnesses (Liotes), and now, of course, I do own more…

I wonder how often you directly swap the BEE tokens that you receive from your #HiveEngine Witness node (which is exactly at the 20th place by the way) into WORKERBEE tokens. 🤓
!WEIRD
!HOPE
Currently I swap about 50% of the BEE into WORKERBEE, and 50% I delegate to bee.voter. This then produces Hive, which I power up (or use to buy more WORKERBEE). The idea is to stack up on both HP and WORKERBEE, to solidify the position in the ranks for both the Hive-Engine witness (it’s currently switching between 21-19, I would like to have it more stable on a higher position) and the Hive witness (position 113 there, need to get it to a higher position for sure).
So, slowly but steadily it will grow I hope…

It's better if your #HiveEngine Witness node moves just within the 19th and 20th places, so that it can continuously earn 0.39954306 BEE tokens every 15 minutes. 😎🤓
Your Hive Witness node reaching at least the 20th place is something still far-fetched, hopefully not for too long. 🤗🤯😅
!PIZZA
Indeed, that’s what I would like with the Hive-Engine Witness, that is constantly in the Top 20. Is it really every 15 minutes? I haven’t checked, I noticed it about 2 or 3 times per hour. Could be 4 as well I guess :-)
The Hive Witness node in the top 20 would be VERY nice indeed, but I do realize that is NOT going to be easy…

15 minutes (as a rough estimate) was what I noticed the gaps between the BEE earnings of your #HiveEngine Witness node's Hive account were when I checked when and how much your Hive Engine Witness node was earning using Hive Engine Explorer. 🤯😅
Well, I only check the regularity of the earnings, on average it's 3 entries per hour (3 hours ago, 4 hours ago, 5 hours ago), don't really care about the rest of it, mostly if it is still running well and high enough in the rankings :-) I just let it grow as much as possible!
