RE: On Engagement – Back Chaining and an Existential Experience
Thanks @howo. I appreciate the info.
It seems strange to me, and it also seems to devalue the content itself and the people who create content. It's almost as if the work to produce content is more important than the content itself. Strikes me as an outlook of one who doesn't know or respect original content.
And the content, MY content, is only monetized here for 7 days. The gripe on crossposted (and previously created) content rings hollow to me. As if I'm supposed to write all my shit twice or leave my business site alone to go steady with Steemit for 7 days.
I set the plugin as 100%, and have since seen several mentions of SBD being a better deal. Have been experimenting. Will make the change. Thanks a bunch.
Appreciate the plugin and your thoughts.
Long story short :
If your post earns 10 steem$ :
2.5 goes to curators (people who upvoted the content)
if you go for 100% you divide the 7.5$ by the value of steem (~3$)
7.5/3 = 2.5 steem power.
if you go for 50/50 :
50% gets converted to steem power : you earn 1.25 steem power
50% is converted to sbd : 3.5 sbd, which can then be converted to steem at a 1:1 ratio (it often hovers around that value) so that's 3.5 steem which can be powered up.
So in the end you earn 4.75 steem power if you do 50/50 vs 2.5 if you did 100%
