Sponsoring someone for HSBI is permanent (unless a Hive user with HSBI units has gone against the HSBI rules). 🤓 !LUV

I almost sent you some, but just in time I reconsidered that you cannot do anything with them since you're not posting. I've sent some to @claudiavb instead. But they aren't appearing yet. It's probably taking some time !wine
If ever I publish a post a year later, then 1/3 of the HSBI balance that I accumulated will be applied to that post as curation. 😅 !wine
Anyway, I see that you have sponsored the Hive account of your daughter @claudiavb with 10 HSBI units, and delegated 200 Hive Power to the HSBI bot which gives you 100 bonus HSBI units until you withdraw the delegation. 🤓
That's right. Afterwards I considered that the sponsoring isn't a very good idea, since it costs me hive, which is gone, while delegations culd be altered or withdrawn any moment. And apart from that these 200 HP as a delegation won't make a big difference on the total... I'll consider to delegate more, after powering up in 2 weeks... !BBH !PGM !CTP
@savvytester! Your Content Is Awesome so I just sent 1 $BBH (Bitcoin Backed Hive) to your account on behalf of @svanbo. (1/1)
We can say that buying permanent ("lifetime") HSBI units is for the long term, while delegating HP to get temporary bonus HSBI units is better for the short term. 🤔🤓
Let's say that delegating is both long and short term, it's just more flexible !wine
However, you (and the Hive users you sponsor) would earn more efficiently in the long run (at least a year) if you simply spend HIVE to buy permanent units rather than delegate continuously to the HSBI Hive account. 🤓 !PIZZA !LUV
Why do you think we would earn more efficiently like that? The sponsored Units are permanent and cannot be taken away when I want. The delegations are also permanent as long as I don't stop them and I can take out the delegation whenever I'd like.... Am I missing something? !wine
You see the permanence of the sponsored HSBI units as a disadvantage, though some Hive users would see the same permanence as an advantage because they no longer have to (temporarily) delegate their Hive Power to the HSBI bot, where the HP can be used for curating (and claiming free Account Creation Tokens if the HP to be delegated is at least 5,000). 🤓 The main idea of HSBI is lifetime upvotes into your account, and the HP delegation to the HSBI bot provides only "bonuses", and that's only 1 HSBI unit for every 2 HP delegated unlike 2 total HSBI units for you and your selected sponsee for every 1 HIVE sent. 😏 !LUV
Anyway, you can request a partial refund of your "permanent" HSBI units, where you will be provided the amount of HIVE that you got for your own Hive account (which excludes what the other Hive accounts that you sponsored got which is 50%) which you haven't "earned" yet through upvotes. 🤓 That means when initiating a refund, you will get more HIVE back the earlier you request the refund. 😏 !wine
