I would say yes, and no, but neither at 100%. That's basically the same rule of thumb I apply to all cryptopportunities in general: diversify instead of maximize. Sure the 20% on HBD does look attractive, but no way I'm going to power down my HP I've accumulated over the years for it. In fact, I don't even spend my liquid HIVE on it, which I'd much rather keep as SWAP.HIVE in my HiveEngine. That's for when other "incredible opportunities" present themselves. However, just by doing my usual thing on Hive (such as writing this comment) I'll have HBD coming in, so why not put all of that into savings?

BTW, what I believe is a potential killer of quality is the need to earn. That's to say, relying on Hive as a source of income. I keep reading of people posting proudly about paying rent with their earnings from blockchain blogging, and as amazing as it sounds, I'm glad I don't have to! Otherwise I'd really be stressing about maximizing my earnings from curation (rather than just voting for what I like, when I like), or making posts (what am I going to post about today? That it's raining? That I walked a thousand steps? Or simply a bunch of links with a stolen meme?) This way there is no pressure, my interaction remains authentic (or so I try), my content interesting (I really hope), and my earnings still constant (acceptably so).
