RE: For how long are new posts profitable?
I think I was not clear enough on my question. I understand people want to know how much each article has earned. But I don't understand why the "Pending Payouts" and "Past Payouts" data is displayed when clicking the $ value.
If more people upvote a post after a payout, there will be an additional payout based on those votes.
See page 19 of the white paper: https://steem.io/SteemWhitePaper.pdf
Perhaps it shows if an article is still active that is will gradually pay out to the user over some set amount of time. Again, I don't know the exact numbers or even the exact idea. But I would love to have someone else comment what they know about this system. Thanks for responding!
