RE: How Many USD Authors Really Get per Article – Steem Dollars Explained
Does this mean if I want to hold my earnings to begin to earn interest on them I do nothing or do I need to convert everything to Steem?
Hi @soulsistashakti ,
both your STEEM Power and your Steem Dollar earn interest. Currently Steem Dollar receive 10% interest. This is automatic by just holding them in your wallet, no action required from you.
Thank you very much and thank you for your efforts to help the community better understand Steem :)

Is the interest rate on Steem power and Steem dollars the same?
No, it is not the same. Calculating interest on Steem Power is a bit more difficult - it is certainly more than 10% just because Steem is also inflating quite a bit over time.
