Deep Dive into Hive Curation Reward APR: Rewards and My Goals

Hello Hive Fam!

I hope that life is treating you well wherever you are in this part of the world.

On the hive platform, curation is an important component. It's important because the more hive power you have, the higher your curation reward will be, and this is a type of reward that you can earn by supporting blocks created by various content creators. There is a web URL through which we can check our curation reward. It's below, and at the end, anyone can add their account and check their curation reward percentage.

On this web URL, you get a lot of information related to your account and it is not just for the curation reward. Like in my case my total reward all time is 1514 HP which translates to 398 US dollars in the market rate. It also shows the author's reward and curation reward with a total. My curation percentage is 5.02% and I have earned about 34 HP through the curation. I was not regular with content creation but now I am trying to be and I am trying to focus more on the curation.

My understanding is that we can earn about 8 to 10% curation reward and since I am not there so surely I am missing something which I need to learn.

Another metric that has been added recently is KE and its only integrated on the peakd interface presently- Rewards/Stake Co-efficient (KE): 0.26

This metric shows how much HP you are holding and accordingly, a score is generated. About a month back my ke ratio was close to 0.5 but now it is reduced because I did some power up. I am planning to power up more on the first of June so I expect that this score will come down further. Lowering the score is better and I think it is also a useful metric to see how an account is doing. I'm not concerned about the KE ratio because it is anyways very good for me but I need to focus on curation APR which I want to improve.

An interest of about three per cent is also paid on HP holding which is not part of the current curation APR and that is 5% approximately. So in this way, I am earning somewhere around 8% and the interest percentage keeps on changing from time to time but I believe it is 2.95% as I see in peakd wallet.

This is my current HP holding and I have also got some delegation which is also visible on my wallet. This time the price of the hive is low and I find it a good buying opportunity. I also see that on finance exchange the APR is very high and I don't know what is the reason behind that. It was about 50% a few days back but now it is reducing slowly but still it is 44% which I saw yesterday.

Investing in the hive is a long-term goal for me and I keep on buying whatever is possible for me. Some other crypto I have converted to a hive and still planning to do it in future. My next immediate target is to have 10,000 HP. I hope that in the next few months, I will achieve it.

Author reward is a good option to increase hp holding but it is not too high for me so I just can't be dependent on that and that is why I am buying more to increase my hive holding. As you can see I have earned about 1500 hp in the last 45 months so monthly is somewhere around 300 hp. This way I don't think I'll be able to reach my milestone even in a year so buying a hive is the best way for me to have a good HP holding.
