Top Hive Earners by Category | Authors, Curators, Witnesses, DAO, HBD Interest | August 2023
We continue to monitor the top Hive earners by category. Hive has multiple methods to distribute inflation that helps its token distribution and stay decentralized. With the addition of the HBD savings interest there is now a total of six ways the inflation on Hive is distributed: authors, curators, staking, witness, DHF and HBD interest.
Image background generated with Midjoureny
Here we will be looking at the overall inflation distribution for HIVE, looking at the following
- Authors rewards
- Curators rewards
- Witnesses rewards
- DHF/DAO rewards
- HBD interest
- Cumulative rewards
Top Authors
Here is the chart for the top 20 Hive authors that earned the most in the month.
Note: These are not totally accurate numbers because there is a conversion on VESTS to HIVE, for simplification. Also some of the top beneficiaries like the hbdstabilizator, reward.app and 3speak are excluded.
I have made a breakdown in the author and beneficiary rewards.
Author rewards are one of the most know in the blockchain as a lot of users are attract for them.
@erikah is on the top followed by @oflyhigh and @tarazkp.
There are around 8.5k accounts that have received rewards in August 2023. The median payout is 15 HIVE, while the is around 86 HIVE.
Top Curators
Here is the chart for the top 20 Hive curators that earned the most in the month.
@appreciator is on the top here, followed by @ocdb and @alpha.
The accounts above are the biggest curators on the Hive blockchain. Hope they will do a great job in curating and making this place grow.
Top Witnesses
The top witnesses’ earnings charts look like this.
I have included more than 20 accounts in this chart to show the drop in earnings after the 20th spot. The top 20 are earning around the same amount of HIVE (HP), around 10k per month.
There seems to be a healthy competition among witness now, especially around the 20th spot.
The DHF/DAO Payouts
Accounts that received funding from the DHF/DAO in the period.
DHF workers are paid in HBD, and the numbers above are in HBD.
A total of 18 accounts received funding in August 2023.
The @valueplan is on the top here with its proposal for multiple Hive activities. Next are @dbuzz, @keychain, @peak.open, @ecency the @spkproposal, etc.
Note on the special @hbdstabilizer. I have excluded this account from the here, since it is dominant on the top, with almost 740k HBD received in the month, but since technically it’s not keeping those funds, it is excluded from the list.
Top HBD Interest Earners
Here is the chart.
The @lazy-panda is on the top here with almost 20k HBD, followed by @newsflash and @alpha.
Top Earners Cumulative
From the data above we can compile the payout for a single ranking on overall top earners on the Hive blockchain in August 2023.
Here is the chart.
Note: These are not totally accurate numbers because there is a conversion on HBD to HIVE implemented, and VESTS to HIVE, for simplification.
I have separated the different earnings for the top accounts accordingly.
The @valueplan account is on the top, followed by @appreaciator, @peak.open and @alpha.
Mostly DHF and curation accounts on the top, but some HBD interest accounts as well.
All the best

Woaaaah!! Congratulations to all the top earners..I wish to be among one day
Thought you'd enjoy this bit of AI art haha
In the realm of Hive, where tokens flow,
There lies a system, a distribution to show.
Authors, curators, witnesses, and more,
Each earning rewards, their efforts adored.
The top authors, skilled with their pen,
@erikah, @oflyhigh, and @tarazkp, they trend.
Their words resonate, their posts well-received,
Earning HIVE tokens, their success achieved.
Curators, too, play a vital role,
@appreciator, @ocdb, @alpha, they control.
They seek out quality, they highlight the best,
Supporting content creators, they truly invest.
Witnesses stand strong, their earnings great,
In the top 20, they all find their fate.
Competition fierce, as they strive to be,
The backbone of Hive, for all to see.
The DHF/DAO rewards, they also bring,
Funding accounts with proposals that sing.
@valueplan, @dbuzz, @keychain, and more,
Contributing to Hive, like never before.
HBD interest, a new addition to the mix,
@lazy-panda, @newsflash, @alpha, they fix.
Earning HBD tokens, with interest in mind,
Their dedication and commitment, they bind.
Cumulative earnings, a chart to behold,
@valueplan, @appreciator, @peak.open, they unfold.
DHF and curation accounts, they dominate,
But HBD interest accounts also participate.
In August 2023, the top earners shine,
Their contributions to Hive, truly divine.
They shape the ecosystem, they pave the way,
For a decentralized future, where Hive will stay.
Thanks @jarvie, this is funny actually. I wonder what was the prompt you used to get it 😀
Hey, I might integrate this as part of the future reports!!!
It rimes ...amazing :)
haha glad to be a bit of inspiration.
Thanks for the informative monthly overview. Congrats to this month's top 100 earning authors!
it is great post, thank you.
now I would like to understand how can I interact with those curation services/bots 🤔
regards!
It seems that this is the first time I was able to reach such high levels in Hive. 25th place is great for me. Considering that some of the accounts above should not normally be included in the list :P Thank you very much for the list @dalz.
Oh, @erikah earned to be on the top spot. Congratulations girl. A lazy panda is a monster when it comes to earning HBD interest. 20k$ is a huge amount. thanks for this informative post @dalz.
Thank you!
It's awesome to know about this and keep up the good work.
That's amazing
I know the majority of people on that list
They are popular on here
Kudos to every of them
I hope one day I will be in the top 100! Congratulations to all active, productive users on the list. These reports are really great, thanks @dalz

Many many congratulations to the top 100 authors. Everyone doing their job perfect.

I would request that you add a tab to the HBD stats page that shows how much HBD is locked in the savings accounts and earning yield. First time seeing this site, nice work.
Yea thats is the plan since the beginig, but keep delaying it. Will try and push it soon :)
When I grow up, I want to be @lazy-panda 🤣 or at least have the interests he/she/they have on a monthly basis.
Thank you @dalz for another fantastic review. 👍😃
