# A secret reward
Some tokens have rewards that kick in once you hit a certain level. With AFITX tokens you can ask the actifit team to upvote your post with an additional amount daily **IF** you are a top 25 supporter of the token. I just found out earlier today that the HELIOS token is the same way. @coininstant said that the top 100 holders get 15% on their tokens just for HOLDING them. So...... I did some looking.

# Poking through other people's wallets
When I got the update that you needed to be a top 100 holder of course I went to look on hive-engine to see how much more I needed to get a return on my Helios tokens. Now finding out the top 100 holders? You have to be sneaky on Hive-engine.com ... More tab-->Extras-->Explorer-->Richlist ' ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/helios.gld/Eo8YCRFH4Xup9mPwy3pRjUGHrK8UuLZcdG974ypVw6wedodQJhs9cTyPPKyYm2jLzsh.png) If you find this page you are in the right place So I then took a look at the #100 spot. I checked out @lambo69 account to see if this #97 holder was getting Helios HODL rewards. Same page but very top you add account name and then HELIOS. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/helios.gld/243ByPsz9xrMKfGzmswAhSPaRzxNcbyexpGKYVpPkvtC2KKbncmFstjNTHHFCX4BMQbaP.png) Quick answer: Top 100 isn't the right place to be. #96 didn't get any rewards. Now @coininstant also said that the cutoff was 320 Helios. So I looked a little further up the list and choose one who had more than 320 Helios. Just for fun I choose @designpickle because, well, it is an awesome name :) ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/helios.gld/23vsmVhVTtzKgTUYiuMuuuxdJRHmMNLSnD3LNz34MdfcK8PQWkVPMHGFCbZzQiNHpmLcE.png) Guess what? ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/helios.gld/23tcJUygVVM1BATrkPGzkGh61jkBtRCRLXUGQ4UHqWjJ1kGGhpdm3YH2Sp9bWsSsNJRnj.png) # 320 Helios seems to be the magic number
Now I only had about 170 Helios tokens so I needed about 150 more to top everything up. I headed over to tribaldex.com to see if there is a liquidity pool to purchase from .... ### Bad news no liquidity pool Now that got me wondering. Why no Liquidity pool for SURGE, EDSI, HELIOS or PAKX. I will admit I'm very tempted to just make one myself and collect some buy and sell rewards. I'm especially interested after I saw the BUY/SELL order book on the hive-engine. ### The spread is rough ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/helios.gld/23tHT1bgNCa6qKnYpohtwbNgQinmMksUy9uptuSKjXR84eHqrwzWUr69RyQHPiYJeU6wA.png) I lost 14% just from purchasing at the sell rather than the buy ### And liquidity is thin ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/helios.gld/23tHSwLSDG6nmkF5BTXYWPVBjG77RrdoBCgNUqfAh3gAjewYUC3J7kWrpDK5RquPiqa56.png)

# I now hold enough for HELIOS rewards
I certainly hope that by holding the 336 HELIOS tokens I can stay high enough to get regular helios added into my account. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/helios.gld/EoeJFfzK2QNJyVx17CuxHY9qR48AeP7fT6rwkwqYGaFEbWyv1oscjDKdNezktSN3Bhz.png) at 0.025 HELIOS daily it will be almost 200 days before I have enough HELIOS to buy an upvote but at least I can say I'm using it for every available benefit. ##### Side Note Helios is a scarcity token. The simple fact that you must burn it to get full benefit (upvote, downvote, or username creation) means that the supply will continue to dwindle. It will be interesting to see what happens when there aren't enough HELIOS circulating to call in the @helios.voter pay for the DCABOT (and other) or burn a HELIOS token to make an account. How high will the token rise when it becomes scarce? But that's it for today. Next thing to look up further.... PAKX token. I'm earning it from delegation which is nice but with a built in curator call for top holders and an automatic distribution for those who hold enough of the coin it seems like I should look a little further into it....Once I build up a stash of swap.hive to buy some more I'll hit up @dlmmqb for a rundown on how to get maximum benefit Until then? I'm happy to have figured out HELIOS a little better
