The HIVE POWER Compounding Interest Dream, learning to become a whale, organically

avatar

I have been experimenting with compound interest formulas lately. I have always been pleasantly surprised by what the programmed savings and the compound interest of some financial products offer.
In the crypto world and in particular in HIVE blockchain, in addition to having 12% APR charged monthly in our wallets, we must also know that our staked HIVE (HIVE POWER) is continuously generating compound interest, at a rate of approximately 2.85%. nowadays.
There are several compound interest calculators on the web, but none offering me a clear case in which the compound interest is charged daily and in which, in addition, it allows daily contributions, which is my case, since, every day my HP increases due to to the curation and author rewards.
Specifically, for my personal case and according to what Hivetasks tells me, my monthly curation and author rewards are approximately 192 HP, which increases my stake and my voting power. . This means that, on average, my HP increases at the rate of 6.42HP/day.

As I have already said, because I couldn't find a good calculator in this regard, I have decided to simulate the "Compound Interest with daily contributions" of my account, in some way, I want to reflect something approximate to the reality of the potential of my account.
In the end I have found the formulas that I needed (you can see them on the web https://www.calcuvio.com/interes-compuesto ) and I have programmed an EXCEL sheet that I will share with you at the end so that you can do your simulations.

Amazing Results

As I have already said, the initial data that I have entered is the following:

  • Ci (Initial Stake): My Hive Power as of today (14148 HP)
  • Cr (Daily contributions): 6.42 HP (Precalculated)
  • s (Number of times you stake): 365 since these 6.42 is what increases my stake on a daily basis
  • t: Number of years, I have calculated the final value of my stake from 1 to 10 years following the religious routine of never power down and considering the previous data.

In addition, I consider an arbitrary value of daily contribution increase based on what my stake is increasing annually...

Difficult to summarize everything, but I think I have obtained something "realistic" of how my HIVE POWER would evolve if I follow the premises described and the results are...

SURPRISING!

  • This is the chart of HIVE POWER versus Time only considering averaged CURATION and AUTHOR REWARDS

Can you imagine becoming a whale only curating and posting?

  • This is the chart of HIVE POWER versus Time only considering averaged CURATION and AUTHOR REWARDS and OTHER CONTRIBUTIONS (Buying HIVE / Converting HBD etc...)

am I dreaming?

I don't think I have done anything especially wrong... but the results that the simulation launches are incredible, I would say...
Obviously, the last graph does not represent reality at all since it "needs that you have a couple of balls" to be so rigorously methodical and not be tempted to sell or power down at the end of the seventh year, for example...
I'd settle for 7 years doing this...and the graph would still be spectacular...

I leave here my mental masturbation today...
If anyone wants to experiment with Compound Interest simulations, feel free to download my excel file from the cloud (I promise virus free) and study the formulas here.

Actually, it does not look so crazy I would say... we have "at home" many examples of how Compound Interest works with some fellows here that after being active here for more than 5 years already they are getting rapidly the status of whale (@steevc is a good example, if I am not wrong he is staking every "penny" he got as HIVE POWER and now he has more than 70000 HP just being active in the platform).

This is working for HIVE POWER with a current APR of 2,85%... imagine what you can get if you do a simulation with HBD and its 12% APR (Coming soon).

Enjoy!

It is absolutely crazy how compounding interest gets the mind going - no matter the field! HIVE is a great place to be and it is amazing how much extra income we can get just out of something as enjoyable as writing posts about things we're interested in and upvoting the ones we like!

I'm sure a lot of people are doing well just from curation, especially as it can be across secondary tokens too. I do not optimise my voting, but I do okay. I couldn't get that sort of return in many places. I have used some fiat to buy HIVE, but not a huge amount.

Me too, but you are really an example to follow

Mind blowing figures there! I've always trust in the long term gain of HIVE but this is more than my expectation, with that being the case 7-10 years is worth the effort.

I hope so, if HIVE maintains its value, obviously😅

It's crazy how the compounding effect really kicks in after a significant period. Factor in appreciation of HIVE over the next few years and it becomes phenomenal. How often the compounding is initiated though can change the figure. Although HP is, in essence, increasing daily, it is only being received and powered up weekly, which would imply that the calculator is set at a weekly compound.

I love doing projections like this, it just shows you how over time, the story can change.
