HBD Stabilizer - Renewal R3-2026

Renewal of the HBD Stabilizer Proposal

To keep a vital part of Hive's financial infrastructure running smoothly, here is the renewal of the HBD Stabilizer proposal for the next two months. This initiative continues to support the price stability of Hive Backed Dollars (HBD), which plays a key role in the overall economic health of our blockchain.

About the HBD Stabilizer

The HBD Stabilizer is a critical tool for reducing price volatility and strengthening the Hive network's financial resilience. It has proven effective over time in maintaining stability, as detailed in @smooth's earlier updates.

All funds sent to the stabilizer are used exclusively for trading according to its charter, with any resulting HBD or profits returned to the Decentralized Hive Fund (DHF).

  • When HBD trades above the $1 target, the stabilizer sells HBD to bring the price down, often generating profit for the community.
  • If HBD exceeds $1.05, it also converts HIVE into HBD, removing HIVE from circulation while creating additional HBD that can potentially be sold for profit.

By helping to stabilize the HBD peg, it supports the long-term robustness of Hive's economy. For more details on its goals and track record, check out @smooth's posts: [1] [2] [3]

Community Call to Action

I encourage every Hive community member to vote in favor of this renewal to keep the stabilizer active.

Your votes are essential to sustaining this important service and protecting our blockchain's financial stability. This renewal maintains the same terms as before: same funding level from the DHF, directed to the same beneficiary (@hbdstabilizer).

Thank you for your continued support!

    I won't support but would nice to have metrics that show what the fund does and how it acted over the past year.

    Because we have on-chain incentives for converting HBD<->HIVE maybe we should let users organically try to profit for keeping the peg, a daily pay of 12k is scary right now because it can exercise debt

              HBD is a a failed experiment. Hive has bled 98% and some not all of this is pressure from artificially trying to manage a peg on a platform that has lost 99% its users since 2021. Price down 98% & users who are active from peak 99%, HBD had one use, paying portion of rewards so half would be in stable condition while other half was in Hive. HBD has been promoted by Hive devs as likely to be the stable coin on bitcoin network and other fantasy & nonsense takes that will never ever happen. The DHF funded projects that paid people to except HBD in commerce and it was all a wasted effort and for nothing. HBD is a failed experiment, the market choice was clear and it was for stable tokens bashed by value not an algorithm artificial peg. HBD is tiny and that’s only reason it still holds a peg generally. I’ll never understand putting extra pressure on main token to prop up a weak artificial peg on HBD. The biggest holders who have HBD locked up to earn APR will likely never get it out at the dollar peg. It’s just small group who continue to push nonsense like HBD can be a mainstream used stable outside our platform when it’s been clearly disproven over & over.

          This proposal is rather incomplete. Before asking for more money, you really ought to show us what this fund has done and, more importantly, actually achieves.

                It's around 99 cents as I write this. The typical fluctuation these days is around 98 to 100 cents with very occasional spikes over 100.

                  Okay, thank you. It's very worrisome that HBD has continued to be very low.

                    Very low? It's supposed to be $1, so it's close.

                        We are well below that for a week. Seems like another bogus take. Didn’t you say same thing at a dime? The HBD peg remains because it’s a tiny tiny community using it. Thus making it easier to keep it going when it’s hardly used for anything besides accounts mass piling into savings , which most will never get it out before peg breaks. I just think it can last a lot longer than you. It’s doomed for one though. But with Hive having no growth & heavy loss of active users, that actually helps HBD peg ironically.

                Excellent initiative, @arcange.

                The work of the HBD Stabilizer is fundamental, especially during times of high market volatility.

                I think it's very appropriate to renew the proposal under the same terms, as transparency and continuity build trust within the community.

                A question to dive deeper: Have you considered implementing some kind of dashboard or more detailed periodic report on the operations carried out and the exact performance of the stabilizer?

                I believe that visualizing the direct impact on the HBD peg and the profits returned to the DHF would further motivate community voting and reinforce the perception of this tool as an economic pillar of Hive.

                Best regards!

                Excelente iniciativa, @arcange

                El trabajo del HBD Stabilizer es fundamental, especialmente en momentos de alta volatilidad en el mercado.

                Me parece muy acertado que se renueve la propuesta con los mismos términos, ya que la transparencia y la continuidad generan confianza en la comunidad.

                Una pregunta para profundizar: ¿Han considerado implementar algún tipo de dashboard o informe periódico más detallado sobre las operaciones realizadas y el rendimiento exacto del estabilizador?

                Creo que visualizar el impacto directo en el ancla del HBD y las ganancias devueltas al DHF motivaría aún más el voto de la comunidad y reforzaría la percepción de esta herramienta como un pilar económico de Hive. Saludos!

                  Disappointed to see he never answered the simple questions you asked and simply wrote “thank you”. Makes me feel like these comments don’t even get read.

                      Would be helpful if you answered his questions instead of just replying thank you. He asked some very fair questions. When I see a generic Thanks and no answers, it looks like a generic reply.
