Happy Wednesday everyone! Here is today's DUO token update.

HP Growth

Right now we're sitting at 11,117 HP! We are continuing to see growth in our overall Hive Power due to sales and the 10% powered up from curations.

90% of all tokens, HBD, etc earned., will be sold off and paid out as dividends. Only 10% will be staked or powered up in order to grow the project.
Remember a minimum of 200 DUO staked is required to be eligible for dividends

Right now, nothing has been delegated to the HOC account while we're still growing the project. We didn't set an exact timeline for this, but we will announce this change once it's effective.

Dividends

The dividends went live on August 1st and will continue to trickle out to those who have staked at least 200 DUO. Some of you may have noticed a bump in the amount you received recently, that was July earnings while we were working out the dividends. You will see the dividends return to their previous levels now, but we hope you enjoyed the nice bonus!

HSBI Raffle for August

The raffle is underway! Sponsor @duo-curator with 1 HSBI share per ticket you'd like to purchase, and you'll have a chance at winning 50 DUO! There will be 3 drawings in total!

Make sure you comment in the giveaway post with the number of tickets you bought.

You can also write a post (250 word minimum) about your positive experience(s) with DUO and tag 5 of your active friends who might be interested in the project. Also make sure to paste the link to your post in the comments below. This will earn you 10 entries into the raffle.

Voting weight target

As stated in a previous DUO update we have a target voting weights but we will adjust on the go to insure healthy mana.
Remember a minimum of 200 DUO staked is required to be eligible for curation.

DUO staked	Vote weight target
200	35%
300	45%
400	55%
500	65%
600	70%
700	75%
800	80%
900	90%
1000+	100%

DUO tipping bot calls

For those who stake at least 500 DUO you can begin to use the tipping bot and send tips on quality posts. When you tip someone with DUO you in turn receive the same amount tipped into your account as well. So tipping with DUO rewards you both!

DUO stake	DUO tipped	calls per day
500	0.1	1
1k	0.2	1
5k	0.3	1
10k	0.5	2

Sales

Right now, DUO is being sold for 1 Hive each. The first tranche sold out quite some time back and we are in the middle of the second.

Once it sells out the next tranche of 60,000 DUO will be sold for 1.5 Hive each, so get in early while there's still time!
