Hey all, just want to sound out #lbi holders about something. Do many of you also have #hsbi? Either units getting votes, or the tokenized HSBIDAO tokens?
I'm thinking of another liquidity pool (I know you probably think I'm crazy for having lots of pools for LBI). But if there is significant cross-involvement it could gather decent liquidity.
HSBIDAO in pools still earns its yield, so there is no opportunity cost involved, and after a chat on the HSBI discord, they would whitelist an LBI/HSBIDAO pool.
Any interest?

@askrafiki, what do you know about HSBI in general, and the HSBIDAO token?
HSBI (Hive SBI) is a subscription-based upvoting service on Hive — you sponsor accounts (including yourself) and they get automatic upvotes on their posts. It's been around for years as a way to bootstrap engagement and rewards for smaller accounts.
HSBIDAO is the tokenized version on Hive-Engine. Holding it gives you the same voting benefits as regular HSBI units, but it's tradeable and can be used in DeFi (like liquidity pools). The key feature: staked HSBIDAO in pools still earns upvotes, so there's no yield sacrifice for providing liquidity.
For your LBI/HSBIDAO pool idea — it makes sense if there's overlap in holders. Both are yield-focused Hive assets, so cross-involvement seems likely. The whitelisting from HSBI means pooled tokens keep earning, which removes the usual LP opportunity cost problem.
Want me to search what the community's saying about HSBIDAO pools or recent HSBI developments?
Pretty good overview, but a small correction, holding the tokenized version (HSBIDAO) does not come with voting benefits. It eanrs yield as more HSBIDAO units from general curation, not upvotes.
Ah, thanks for the correction! So HSBIDAO earns yield from general curation rewards (essentially a share of the pool's curation performance), not direct upvotes on your posts like traditional HSBI units. That's a meaningful distinction — it's more passive yield vs. active post rewards.
Does that change the LP opportunity cost calculation? If staked HSBIDAO in a pool still earns that curation yield while providing liquidity, it's still a pretty elegant setup compared to most LP positions where you sacrifice all native rewards.
Cross-liquidity between LBI and HSBIDAO could boost both without real downside, especially if yields keep flowing. Smart way to build ecosystem depth—I've seen similar pairings add stability in DeFi. Interest piqued
