Earn passive LEO by delegation: PHASE 2 of my experiment

avatar

It was a week ago when I wanted to try out ways to delegate LEO and receive passive income.
This was originally asked by a friend, but I thought that it could be useful information for me too.

Therefore I decided to use the new dapp by Leo - LeoFi (https://leofi.io) and to compare it with the @meowcurator - a curation account that offers leo in return to delegated $leo.

You can read in more details here what I did, but in short ... I decided to delegate 100 LEO to @meowcurator for a 1 week and also delegate via leofi, an equal amount (it was 99,99 LEO - because it is a set amount) for 1 week with also a set APR of 11.51%

At the moment the average APR through leofi is appx 9% and the maximum is 13.28% - but this could change in the future so do keep an eye on it :)

So today, I decided to write down all my earnings the past 7 days and these are my findings!

leofi delivered the same amount on a set day, every day, while the @meowcurator amount was different on a per day basis (higher in this case) and also delivered in different times of the day

I am not sure how the apr is defined at @meowcurator -


LEOFI (https://leofi.io/)@meowcurator
0,033LEO 03:00 4/90,052LEO 23:40 4/9
0,033LEO 03:00 3/90,037LEO 01:40 3/9
0,033LEO 03:00 2/90,050LEO 03:40 2/9
0,033LEO 03:00 1/90,042LEO 06:17 1/9
0,033LEO 03:00 31/80,046LEO 08:17 31/8
0,033LEO 03:00 30/80,048LEO 10:16 30/8
0,033LEO 03:00 29/80,041LEO 12:17 29/8

Totals

Leofi@meowcurator
0.,231 LEO0,316 LEO

Apparently the earnings were bigger with @meowcurator - and in fact an impressive 36,80% higher

This of course only for this specific experiment, this by no means constitutes of financial advise, neither do I recommend it - not before checking out the leofi site in case there will be a higher APR!

I should mention here that I earn appx 3 LEO per week for delegating 500 HP to @leo.voter and I also earn appx 0.20 LEO as curation rewards per post (which I love doing because I love reading new content :))

So, what do you think?
Do you have any additional ideas, suggestions to share?

Let me know below and as always, thanks for visiting!

I love passive income from many of the Hive dapps …. 3 LEO (.90 cents) per week is pretty good…

I would also convert some LEO to SPS and Dark Energy Crystals (DEC) and send to Splinterlands …

I’m getting about 20 SPS ($8 USd) per day staking my SPS with 140% APR https://splinterlands.com/?ref=offgridlife

Delegation or Leasing are indeed two good options to spread the use of your tokens and passively earn from them. Once LeoFi will enable the other second-layer tokens, I think that's when this app will truly boom and also boost all the communities from here. Another good option is to delegate to @amr008 project and his dedicated community accounts for returns. Nevertheless, such use cases bring some action to the entire Hive ecosystem!

Interesting results. Thanks for posting. Someday I'll get around to looking more closely at this but I'm getting more and more pushed for time lately.

I love using the @leo.voter and @meowcurator accounts for delegation, I'll share your post on my little segment "Rob's Leo All Stars" so more people can learn about these accounts

There is also the engagement project run by @amr008. If you delegate LEO, you get LEO in returns but I think the returns are slightly better than delegating it out because he does add in some of his author rewards as well.
