Burned tokens, rewards, and inflation summary December 3, 2022 - Total burn estimates: 183K STEEM/SP and 64 SBD
Steemit launched the #burnsteem25 initiative on May 22, and the corresponding rewards started being delivered to @null on May 29. Subsequently, on August 9, Steemit announced that they'd be monitoring post promotions daily. Here is the next weekly update with PowerBI charts to visualize the burned token-related statistics since those dates.
Slide 1 & 2: Burn amounts in beneficiary rewards and transfers to @null. (Weekly & All time)
Weekly totals were about 6,512 STEEM/SP in burned beneficiary rewards and 0.18 SBD burned on promotion with 914 burnsteem25 posts (~7.1 STEEM + SP burned per post). This is down by 261 from last week's 6,773. There were no new entries in the all time top-4 list.

| Sidebars |
|---|
Top sidebar summary cards show total number of STEEM, SP, and VESTS burned, as well as the total number of posts with @null beneficiary settings. This is where the headline number comes from.
In the center-left sidebar is a new table showing the top-4 days in terms of burned beneficiary rewards.
Bottom-left sidebar summary cards show totals for SBD burned in post promotion.
| Graphs |
|---|
Top-left is a graph showing the number of posts and average SP burned per post by month.
Top-right: This shows the VESTS and the estimated SP beneficiary rewards burned per month.
Middle-left: This is a graph showing the number of posts and average SP burned per post, by day.
Middle-right: This shows the daily VESTS and the estimated SP beneficiary rewards that have been burned.
In all of the above graphs, VESTS are shown against the left axis, SP and STEEM are shown against the right.
Bottom: SBD transfers to @null. As readers are likely aware, SBD transfers to @null can get a post added to the /promoted page. The visualization on the left shows a monthly aggregation of SBDs transferred and a count of unique senders. The visualization on the right shows the daily record.
Slide 3: Rewards summary
Unchanged from the last ten weeks is that SBD printing has remained paused, due to the continuing sluggishness impacting the price of STEEM (and crypto markets at large). With the present SBD supply, it looks like the median on-chain price for STEEM needs to get back to about $0.252 for SBDs to start printing again. With 100K burned and 5.05M in overall social rewards during the last 90 days, this represents an average burn rate of just under 2%.
Curator rewards use the scale on the right, author and beneficiary rewards use the scale on the left. Thus, curation rewards appear to be scaled down relative to author & beneficiary rewards. Beneficiary rewards for @null in this chart (red) have been adjusted in order to account for both SP and liquid rewards. The top graph shows the monthly aggregations, and the bottom graph shows daily totals.
The new top-left sidebar shows estimates for the 90-day total of distributed "social rewards" (author, curator, and beneficiary), the 90-day total of curation rewards; and the 90-day total of burned beneficiary rewards.
The new bottom-left sidebar shows estimated daily 90-day averages for the same three values. In both sidebars, "social rewards" are calculated as [curation rewards] * 2. Based on these estimates, the burn rate is about 1.9% of all social rewards (this excludes interest paid for staking, rewards to witnesses, and SBDs to the SPS).
Slide 4: STEEM & SBD Supply as well as vested (i.e. staked or "powered up") STEEM
Noteworthy this week is that liquid STEEM as a percentage of current supply and of virtual supply increased for the second consecutive week after six weeks of declines (top-right and bottom-left charts).
The card in the lower-right corner shows the inflation rates for current_supply and virtual_supply, as calculated from the SteemDB API.
The top-left image provides a summary view of current and virtual STEEM supply, current SBD supply, liquid and vested STEEM, and the amount of STEEM reserved as collateral for paying off SBDs.
| Note |
|---|
Collateralized STEEM and current SBD supply actually represent the same value expressed in terms of STEEM or SBDs, respectively. They're aligned differently on the graph because they use different axes. |
The top-right graphic now contains a zoom-in on "virtual STEEM Supply" (left axis) and the ratio of liquid STEEM / virutal STEEM supply (right axis). As we learned, here, virtual STEEM supply is heavily influenced by price, so with STEEM prices down, it's not surprising to find the virtual STEEM supply increasing. The up-side of this is that it's now possible to burn more collateralized STEEM per SBD with post promotion.
The bottom-left visualization now contains the ratio of liquid STEEM / current STEEM supply (left axis) and a zoom-in on Current SBD supply (right axis)
The chart on the bottom right shows the value of SBDs in terms of STEEM, according to the blockchain conversion rate, not external markets. This is the inverse of the blockchain's: internal price (which is different from the actual feed median, for reasons that I don't currently understand).
Now, here are some more details about each of the values
| Parameter | Axis (left/right) | Meaning | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBD Supply | right | Number of SBDs in circulation | Equivalent in value to collateralized STEEM |
| Collateralized STEEM | left | Number of STEEM needed to pay off all SBD debt | Equivalent in value to SBD Supply |
| Vested STEEM | left | Number of STEEM staked as STEEMPOWER | |
| Liquid STEEM | left | Number of STEEM that's not staked or needed for SBD collateral | Calculated as (Current STEEM supply - Vested STEEM) |
| Current STEEM supply | left | Number of STEEM in circulation | |
| Virtual STEEM supply | left | Number of STEEM in existence |
Slide 5
Two weeks ago, I started downloading the actual curation reward transactions from the blockchain, so I can see how well the numbers match up with steemdb. After 22 days of downloading, it's caught up to September 1.
Some time ago, @pennsif had asked me about numbers of unique authors. When this data finishes downloading, I should be able to answer that. (knock on wood. ;-)

Yes, I think there will be more than 200 K STEEM by the end of the year, there are still 3 weeks left, so good luck! And of course thanks for the report!
It's almost the end of the year and it would be great to reach the 200k goal by the end of the year.
I think we have to keep waiting, the price is what makes me have this way of thinking.
I hope we're doing a bit more than waiting... ;-)
Well, I'm very patient, so much so that the only projects I'm targeting are BTC and CARDANO, so you'll give an idea of my patience, I watched the video, the only thing I can say is that possibly I will have the gray hairs of these two characters when get my rewards haaaaaa, but that will be there if it is safe.
Hey, and if I do something other than wait, I observe, analyze and execute what is advantageous for me, it is an individual decision, just like everything I do.
My comments on this post will always be the same for you haaaaaaa, so you won't have to look at it, it will be the same there and the same :)
This will be ...... I wish you a happy day :)
more than 176 K STEEM burned during the entire time of the report. That's great!
