HIVE offers a lot more upside than 20% plus it gives people other benefits such as helping to direct the reward pool, voting for witnesses/proposals, and is gas on the chain.
Powering down and selling Hive for HBD might be done to get 20%. But what happens if the price of HIVE goes from 85 cents to $1.35? Seems like the person shot themselves in the foot.

It can definitely be looked at as an interesting dilemma. As Task is saying: if you're holding a stablecoin, all you can earn is the yield. In this case, 20% per year.
Though if you had bought HIVE at $0.10 and earned 8% yearly but held until today from the past 24 months, you'd be doing a helluva lot better than 40% return (20% * 2).
IMO holding both is a logical move. Speculate on HIVE while also using HIVE POWER to have more influence while simultaneously stacking HBD from author rewards and buy-ins to increase your "secure" stash of stablecoins earning 20% that you can also leg back into HIVE with during crypto dips.

People do not put their entire portfolio's in penny stocks or major spec. They spread it around.
Speculate on Hive, go for yield with HBD. If HIVE moons, take some profits by getting it into HBD and earning more yield.
