Ten HSBI and Two Duo Token Giveaway Week 41!

Sunday again, it's always such a nice quiet morning to sit, relax, and sip some great coffee... I hope you are all having a great weekend so far. I can't complain about mine, I managed to finish all of my holiday shopping yesterday so it should be smooth sailing this week. Christmas isn't quite as much fun as it used to be when my son was young, having kids in the house makes it a lot more exciting. Sadly, they grow up way too fast! If you have young kids still, enjoy it while it lasts!

Sunday is my weekly giveaway day, where I give out ten HSBI units, some DUO tokens, and a legendary Splinterlands card. It's my way of giving back to the Hive community that has helped me grow my account so much over the last couple of years. It's always satisfying to see other Hive members doing well, I still remember just how hard it was getting started. I'm glad I didn't give up, and thanks to all of you I now have Dolphin status!

Every week I post an entry question to enter the giveaway. Last week's entry question was: What would your ideal gift be for the holidays this year? I made up a review of some of the choices for everyone to enjoy. I added mine last, tell me what you think...

Money

Cold hard cash was the winner with a surprisingly low three picks. Who wouldn't mind some some money as a gift, I wouldn't say no! Or maybe some nice bearer bonds like they were trying to steal in the first "Die Hard" movie. I watched that yesterday, it's a great Christmas movie, much more entertaining than Rudolph! Thanks to @yusmelys , @lumpiadobo and @silvertop (sats wish) for the great pick!

Good Health

Good health is a great gift, and I need a lot more of it personally! After all, if you don't have your health you don't have anything! Come to think of it, I think that was a line from the movie "The Princess Bride". If you haven't seen that classic you are missing out, check it out! I also wouldn't mind a pill to make me twenty years younger, but the geneticists haven't quite worked that one out yet. Thanks for this pick by @lanzjoseg and @hatdogsensei !

Food and sweet treats were one of the picks, and I love it. After all, who doesn't like some good cookies and candy? Growing up my mom would make all sorts of Christmas goodies, from dipped chocolate to gingerbread men. One of my favorite things about Christmas as a kid were all the goodies! Thanks for this awesome choice by @logen9f !

xc-ski.de

Some new Madshus Redline DP1 Skis were a pick by @anderssinho ! These are some quality cross country skis and they aren't exactly cheap... I've never done much cross country skiing, I was always into downhill in my younger years. But those are really nice!

Personally I would go with silver or gold (along with @gwajnberg ), but if it were possible I would go with my own genie (a guy can dream can't he?) But not the kind that grants three evil wishes where you wish you were dead, the Barbara Eden version with unlimited wishes that weren't laced with arsenic! I loved watching reruns of "I Dream of Jeannie" when I was a kid...

Now for today's question. What is your favorite holiday treat?

The Giveaway

I will be giving out two prizes of five (5) HSBI. Third prize will be 2 DUO tokens, the token I recently launched with @bulliontools and @bitcoinman . It offers those who stake sufficient tokens daily curation on quality posts, dividends, and a tipping bot. It also helps to onboard and retain new Hive members. At the end of the post there is a link to the white paper and where to purchase the tokens. There will also be one legendary Splinterlands card as a fourth prize. If you don't play Splinterlands just let me know and I'll send you two HSBI instead. To participate you need a reputation level of at least 25 and bots cannot win. And please one entry per person to make it fair to everyone.

If you have more questions about DUO feel free to ask, it's growth is exceeding all of our expectations!

Legendary Splinterlands card up for grabs this next week:

A level 1 Djinn Oshannus card

How to Enter

Every week this will change. I'm looking for engagement rather than just saying "I am in". There is no need to upvote or re-blog, although if you choose to do so I would appreciate it. This week's question is an easy one:
What is your favorite holiday treat?

HSBI

If you are unfamiliar with the prize you can learn more here:

Choosing the Winners

All valid entries will be placed on the Wheel of Names and I will spin it four times. The first prize will be 5 HSBI units. The second prize will be another 5 HSBI units. Third prize will be a legendary Splinterlands card or two HSBI units, winner's choice. Fourth prize will be two DUO tokens. And since I am spinning the same wheel four times in a row it is theoretically possible for the same person to win all four prizes! Although I have yet to see it happen, maybe this week?

Deadline

One week from today which will be Sunday December 29, 2024 at 8 A.M. California Pacific Time.

Now to choose last week's lucky winners!
