Only 200? Hmm. That’s really not that much. I would have made more by just boosting the post… Guess I’ll use the promote option instead.

Well, to generate 200 HP you would have to boost at least sixty posts at 150 Ecency Points per post if we assume Hive at 0,33$...a total of 6000 Ecency Points.
Not so expansive at the end

You’re not earning 200 HIVE, you are getting a temporary delegation that will go away after 30 days. The yield you make on that is next to nothing. Max 10% APR on curation, which you won’t have for long so you are not really earning that much. It’s an illusion of boosting.

You can spend other earned Ecency Point to take another boost and take delegation

Not what he is saying :D

You borrow the 200 hp for 1 month and earn curation rewards from that, which is max 10%

I do a lot of leasing or have done.

You can literally pay 1 Hive to get 85 hp for 5 weeks. So properly 2 hive for 200 hp for 4 weeks and by doing that, you are not even earning the 2 hive back x)

Promoting for 7 days cost 500 point and has a little engagement if you have not a post with large interest.

I think that the delegation is a good idea, maybe because the old boosting system wasn't susteinable a lot
