To your point corporate bonds can trade a little above par too. Nearly all the time they return to par by maturity (unless called at a premium). On the other hand, most corporate bonds have terrible liquidity.

Every block becomes irreversible after a certain period of time, to account for temporary inconsistencies that pop up during processing. It takes a while for all of the nodes operating around the world

Usually going to be better of using the internal market or polygon HBD swap.

Back when HBD was very unstable, it made sense to use 100% HP if HBD was below the peg because the 50% HBD you'd receive would be undervalued. Conversely when HBD was overvalued, you'd want to stick with

It's definitely not sustainable "forever" (unless USD has very high inflation), but it should be sustainable for "a while".

If you have the owner key, then you don't need it. If you don't have the owner key or master password, you'll never have "full control" over the account, but you can keep using it as long as

[reset accounts] I don't have a view on the reset feature as long as it is opt-in on existing accounts. Unfortunately this means if you lost your key in the past you are still SOL. But I don't want to

Every block some additional HIVE is converted to HBD and added, much like how the reward pool and HP staking rewards are funded. 10% of the inflation (around 8% per year currently) goes to DHF.

If the price is below a dollar and it has received HBD, rather than sending it right back, it will convert it into HIVE. Depending on what happens 3.5 days later when the conversion finishes, it might

Probably one of the writers on the platform with some technical background could interpret it and provide a clear explanation if anyone is interested.

The Polygon pool hasn't varied by more than a penny or so in the past 12 hours. That's pretty representative of reality, IMO, since anyone can trade against it with known liquidity at any time.

I think there are some oddities in how they report too. If it is a HBD-BTC pair, the last trade was a while ago, and the price of BTC has since moved, I'm not sure they report that correctly (or if it

It can also convert which takes 3.5 days, so not immediate.

I can't answer that. I vote for some of them, not others. It's all up to the stakeholders to vote on whether the approved budget are worthwhile and affordable.

It gets whatever is left over in the budget after the other proposals are paid. How much is needed depends on market conditions. When there are big dislocations, the higher amount is helpful, otherwise

It depends a lot on market conditions. When there are big price moves or supply-demand imbalances for HBD the stabilizer trades more. Recently price moves have been relatively subdued and most of the funding

One can get more interest now on HBD than staking HIVE That's not a useful comparison. HIVE can go up 1000%, and has in the past. That's 50 years of 20% (non-compounded). Meaning, if you think HIVE will

I'm not following it closely. I saw something about a "vote" against the proposal, but I'm not sure if it was a true vote or just a poll on a forum. Anyway, advice remains, understand what you're

This number doesn't show anywhere Not directly but you can subtract the current supply from the virtual supply. Both are shown on hiveblocks.com but the virtual supply (bottom number) is not labeled there.
