RE: HF 19- A few thoughts now the euphoria is dying down some
Ironically it makes it harder for minnows to lift up minnows because they only get 10 votes overall.
Once again, you continue to propagate the urban legend that after HF19 you are limited to 10 upvotes a day.
After 10 upvotes in rapid succession, your voting power is not 0% but 81.71%.
You can continue to upvote more posts and comments.
What is true is that if you want to only vote when you have 100% voting power, then you need to space your votes by at least 2 hours and 24 minutes, and yes, in this case, the maximum of upvotes at 100% is 10.
But I believe that you should upvote whatever you deem interesting, whatever your voting power.
Vcelier. I understand the rules. I make 1400 votes a day when streemian and steemvoter are working.
How about this. Pretend you're a minnow for a day. I want you to only vote with 100% upvotes. Because that's the only option they have. Tell me how many you made? Tell me if you thought it enhaned your curating experience and friendship making on the platform.
How many of them are you going to use to make $9.97 upvotes on your own comments?
hey @aggroed!! I love how deep you are diving into this stuff. I just read your pre hf19 post, and it was incredibly helpful for me in understanding it all. Everyone does seem to be riding a wave of excitement post fork...I'm by no means a minnow, but I am fairly new to the platform.
the trending sections are unfortunate
I think we should be doing whatever we can to move eyes off of them. although, I have noticed a funny thing with some of my posts, they pretty much rocket up to the first page of trending for certain tags within a four hours, and then they literally sit there and barely get a vote for the rest of week. Not sure what thats about. (I was thinking maybe people don't want to vote on it because they feel like it's made 'enough' already?)
I find myself having to use the slider a lot (and I have one)
I love upvoting comments!!! I do it very often. I appreciate that the platform 'remembers' my typical slider setting on a comment versus on a post...maybe we just need to give minnows a slider? I don't know...
another small thought is that perhaps by consolidating the power into fewer votes people will have to be more careful about what they spend them on?
There is a part of me that thinks this could be a good thing, as there really is so much rampant voting although it's hard to tell what it's driven by...I think you are dead right about the vote piling. It's like a Nash Equilibrium in game theory...as long as enough people are deciding to (autovote) on the same authors, sweetsssj does come to mind, it's free money. There is no financial incentive to not pile on your votes to a well established author, instead there's financial incentive to do it faster. Something needs to be done about that in the long run, or it will only continue to compound with time
I just made this experiment with @marcel.dubrovnik who has a little more than 1,000 SP.
Does that qualify as a minnow?
Starting from a voting power of 96.86%, after 10 upvotes at full power, the voting power was 79.10% and the last upvote was worth $0.81.
After 10 more upvotes still at full power, the voting power was 64.60% and the last upvote was worth $0.67.
That is a good experiment! What was the first vote worth at 96.86%
Between $0.95 and $0.99
OK, let's keep going and show a curve. Wanna spam another 50 votes around? I can make a graph and show people what it looks like as your power depletes. Or do you want me to make my own smurf and do it?
@marcel.dubrovnik made another 50 upvotes at full power. His voting power is now at 24.02% and his last upvote was worth $0.25.
That would be after 72 upvotes, starting at voting power of 100%, with initial post value around $1.00.
Well, this makes math pretty simple to understand right now. at ~$2/steem a 100% upvote at 1000SP= $1USD in post rewards.
Presumably that should scale linearly.
says I'm at 34%, but I think it's behind. I'm at 4.89 at a full vote and 14.4k SP.
That's roughly a third of 15k, whch is 5k which at full vote is roughly $5. That's a pretty solid estimate for right meow.
This has been a good thought experiment. thank you for your participation.
You are welcome.
Now, @marcel.dubrovnik will curse me for 4 days until his voting power returns to around 100%.
