RE: I Finally Understand 50/50 Steemit Author Rewards, and So Can You

in #steemit7 years ago

I do not think that this view is right. Because the value of the votes goes down as well, your totally reward will not be 10 Dollar anymore but maybe only 6 Dollar.

Sort:  

But i must admit, that I have not fully understood how this is calculated exactly....

Yeah, I guess he's right if he's betting the price will rise again soon. When I started, SBD was about 3x Steem. Now they're about equal. Still, you get more from the SBD half of the rewards because the Steem is calculated as the USD value of it. If SBD was actually worth $1 USD, it would be different. Right now, it's sort of depressing as I watch my rewards drop on all the posts that haven't paid out yet just because of the changing values/ratios.

It's purely based on steem price averaged over the last 3.5 days. You are right.
