It's Sunday again which means it's time again for another weekly giveaway. This past week I had 42 people respond to the entry question so there will be 42 of you one the wheel. That's down from 47 last week, but I'm glad to see many of you still interested in the weekly initiative that I started over one year ago now.
The whole purpose of the giveaway is to give back to the Hive community that has helped me grow my account over the last couple of years. It's good to see people growing their accounts, and I'm glad to be of some assistance!
As the number of participants has increased I've been adding prizes and bonus spins to make it more likely that everyone will have a chance to win. I want to take a moment to thank @alohaed and @beelzael for being kind enough to sponsor some HSBI prizes for the winners of the regular spins number two through five. I really do appreciate your support!
And as always I want to leave more information on the other tokens that are up as prizes as well so you can check them out. I'm invested in both of these projects pretty heavily, just a disclaimer!
For more information on CCD tokens, they are the currency from @cryptocompany created by @powerpaul . Check out the website: https://cryptocompany.ceo/
For more information on BBH, a project from @bradleyarrow please check out the post: https://peakd.com/@hive-112281
Last week's entry question was about your personal favorite dinosaur, let's see what everyone preferred from these extinct reptiles:
Tyrannosaurus rex
animalia-life.club
This large bipedal carnivore roamed what is now North America. Due to it's size and strong bite it's believed to have been an apex predator. Measuring 12.3 meters or 42 feet in height it would have been a terrifying creature. Through the movie series Jurassic Park most of the world had a chance to see what the creature may have been like in life, and makes you feel grateful that they are long since extinct.
Thanks for this choice going out to @lumpiadobo , @tengolotodo , @angeluxx , @hafiz34 , @ladymisa , @henruc , @imfarhad , @ladyaryastark , @olaf.gui , @ronnie10 , @suisver , @vaynard86 , @ekavieka and @rosahermosa !
Velociraptor
Most people today believe the velociraptor was the creature seen in Jurassic Park like these:
uhdpaper.com
However, that is a complete fiction created by Steven Spielberg. In reality the velociraptor was about the size of a turkey and was rather bird like. Not nearly as scary as the one's in the movies. Here's an artist's rendition:
dinopedia.wikia.com
Still not cute and cuddly somehow! These may have been smaller and less intimidating that seen in the movies, but could still do some serious damage. Thanks for making this selection going out to: @gwajnberg , @silvertop , @cajiro , @luchyl , @mytechtrail , @florakese , @datastat and @okarun !
Triceratops
dinocoloring.com
This large dinosaur roamed what is now North America at the same time as T. rex. The were formidable with three very sharp horns for defense although they were herbivores. They were 8-9 meters (26-30 feet) long and very heavy, you definitely didn't want to make one mad at you! Recent ideas have downplayed the horns for defense and compared them to antlers on deer and elk, but who knows? Without a time machine we may neve know for sure.
Thanks for the great choice by: @melinda010100 , @neblomax , @chaosmagic23 , @cositav , @dewabrata , @longganisan and @blitzzzz !
Stegosaurus
easyscienceforkids.com
This distinctive dinosaur had large plates on it's back and spikes on it's tail. It's believed the spikes were self defense but the plates are still a subject of speculation. They had short front limbs and a head close to the ground which made eating plants and shrubs very easy. Some 80 individual skeletons have been found in the western part of North America, so as more are found we may learn more about them.
Thanks for a great pick by: @bigorna1 , @flummi97 and @stranger27 !
Patagotitan mayorum
urbantecno.com
news.sky.com
The extinct reptiles were first discovered in the Patagonia region of Argentina, the part down near to the South Pole. They were 31 meters (102 feet) in length conservatively, and are the largest known dinosaur found to date in the fossil record. Just check out the above images just to get an idea of how big these things were in life. The were truly giants! More and more fossils are being found, so maybe even a larger species is waiting to be found in South America!
Thanks for this choice by: @gatet , @roswelborges and @tortangkahoy !
Barney
wallpapercave.com
This favorite children's dinosaur was also picked so we couldn't leave him off the the list! Thanks @geneeverett and @yusmelys for this fun pick!
And some of the others choices I will leave in list form for times sake:
Pterodactyl @whywhy and @servelle
Spinosauridae clade @beelzael
Carnotaurus @freed99
Brachiosaurus @hatdogsensei

Now for today's entry question...
Where would you go on your dream vacation?
The Giveaway
I will be giving out one prize of five (5) HSBI. Second and Third prizes will be 1.5 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. Fourth prize is 100 BBH tokens. Fifth prize will be 250 CCD tokens. Sixth prize is 10 ARCHON tokens. 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.
I currently have sponsors who also kick in some HSBI units to the second, third, fourth, and fifth regular spin winners. None on the bonus spins. The sponsors can still enter the giveaway, however, if they happen to win on one of the spins they sponsor I will re-spin the wheel for another winner. You can't sponsor HSBI units to yourself!
If you would like to be placed on a weekly reminder list just let me know and I'll make sure you get tagged each week.

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: Where would you go on your dream vacation?
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 and third prize will be 1.5 DUO tokens. Fourth prize will be 100 BBH tokens. Fifth prize will be 250 CCD tokens. Sixth prize will be 10 ARCHON 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 June 29, 2025 at 8 A.M. California Pacific Time.
