Yesterday I started the project but didn't have the actual upvote values. Those values are now in so I can add them to the list today (and I'll keep a running total starting tomorrow :)

Why a semi daily post?
The burn value of the HELIOS token is somewhat erratic. How much you need to delegate or hold in order to get rewards is kind of erratic. The buy wall on the Hive-Engine has a pretty large spread. So I thought I would use this account to try and make a little extra HIVE by burning one token roughly daily and post the value of that burn along with the price of HELIOS on HIVE in order to make the burn profitable. In addition I'll be posting a little bit about returns if holding, HELIOS and Delegation HP to Helios to round things out.
No guarantees how long I will do this but for now it sees like a fun project.
