RE: 100% power up option pays you less then 50/50 option. Think before you choose.

in #steemit7 years ago

The 50/50 payout option is better if you are trying to maximize powering up when the SBD/STEEM ratio is below 1. The problem is forecasting if that is going to be the case 7 days after you write a post.

Conversely when the SBD/STEEM ratio is above 1 like it is now, then the 100% option will maximize your STEEM Power for your post.

The 100% option doesn't give you the opportunity to weasel out of powering up if the post blows up and gets hooked by a whale.

The 50/50 option when STEEM is more than $1USD is the best option if you are going to convert out to USD's upon payout. That's going to pretty much be the case going forward.

yup that's exactly it. What i believe will be changed into payout on the current exchange rate, the it should all get back to normal.

If you aren't going to exchange for USD, then is the 50/50 option still more emunerative?
