Hello and welcome to this weeks EDSD post.
What are EDSD tokens?
EDSD @eds-d are the last to be released token from @eddie-earner because now all 500k EDS are allocated. Some will be aware that I have been itching to release an HBD-backed token for EDS for a long time but I could never think of a good model. I was thinking how can EDSD compete with the 20% APY being offered for saving HBD currently? This was the wrong way of thinking, let me explain.
I am aware that there is a demand for EDS tokens because they have a small mintage and pay out a handsome HIVE income equal to over 25% APY. We seen from @eds-vote that investors were happy to split rewards and receive 50% of the curation rewards as EDS with the other 50% being powered up to @eddie-earner which increases the EDS HIVE income pool. Win/win. EDSD is based on this model.
EDSD tokens are equal to a HBD Bond that you buy, hold a long time, get a yield and when you want your HBD back, you convert your EDSD back into HBD. All HBD collected from issuing EDSD is added to the @eds-d saving wallet. 100% of the interest earned is converted to HIVE with 50% used to mint and issue EDS at the value of 1 HIVE each to EDSD token holders and the remaining 50% being powered up to @eddie-earner. Basically, 100% is powered up and we issue EDS rewards on half the amount powered up.
After you exit, assuming you stacked your EDS, you will have an HIVE income for life or at least as long as mine, (38). The longer and more EDSD you hold, the more EDS you will get and the higher your HIVE income will be. Pretty simple, buy it and forget about it. EDSD will not last forever as they have a set amount of EDS allocated to them and when the allocation is done, EDSD will either wrap up or introduce another reward. We're talking a few years, not a few months.

Week 38s Update
Get ready to embark on another rollercoaster ride through the wild and wonderful world of EDSD with our Weekly Report. This edition is juicier than a pineapple at a tropical crypto party, price shenanigans, and tech breakthroughs that even Elon would raise an eyebrow at. Let's get into it.
Small increases in circulating EDSD tokens this week as we increase supply to 7517 tokens.
Our HBD interest payment increased a little but you can see it converted into less HIVE as its price has increased around 15% in the past 7 days. You can think of the price of HIVE increasing in 2 ways.
1/ You are going to earn less EDS for your HBD
2/ All the EDS rewards you've earned when HIVE was 16 cents is up 25%.
I prefer number 2 because that is where your profit is. The EDS you earn today will be worth 5x when HIVE hits $1 and your EDS rewards from EDSD will far outpace the HBD interest you would have earned if you saved it instead of buying EDSD.
Just about minted 50 EDS this week, not a ton but still a decent number when we think its still around 2500 per year or currently about 8% of the weekly mintage.
Of course the amount of EDS EDSD mints is completely upto how many HBD are in the saving account of @eds-d and the dollar price of HIVE.
Investors' Path Start to Finish
- Send any amount of HBD to @eds-d
or - Set up a HBD recurring payment to @eds-d (for Saturday Savers 🤑)
- Receive EDSD in your hive-engine wallet a few moments later
- Hold EDSD to receive weekly EDS rewards each Monday
To exit
- Request cash out in the weekly EDSD post
- Send your EDSD tokens to @eds-d
- Receive your HBD back after 3-4 days
