HF19 AFTERMATH~ The Declining Potential Payout
I feel like things were much better during pre HF19 i would make $1 or $2 per post and this would remain unchanged for a week now i make on a post $8.53 when i wake up it's $7.12 and it sucks because number of upvotes are even increasing but potential payout is decreasing its very demoralizing.
I have read all manner of explanations on why webare having this predicament and nothing explains to me why HF19 is better than what we had previously, if anything it has affected the price of steem significantly and also changed voting patterns for minnows, dolphins and whales because now voting power takes forever to reach 100%
Most people thought minnows would get more from this hard fork but the real winners are whales and anyone with reputation score of 65 and above because their posts gets upvoted automatically even without being read.
Policing is still happening where some users want to shape steemit in the image of medium and with declining payout this makes things even worse!
Hope something gets done.
It feels like the the H19 its just an illusion. I thonk its great that it happened though. Because atleast you can upvote someone and see difference with as little as 1 steem. Lets appreciate it now. Maybe in future,
I also believe it was created with best intentions at heart but when they did put it into practice they realized it wasn't going to work well, i think if whales voted less and people withdrew their sbd and steem less then everything would equalize but then again i dont have even the slightest clue how this thing works.
One week after HF19 everything was perfect then things got worse and now at breaking point.
I agree. I've noticed this and agree it's worse for minnows. I hope something gets done
cheer up, friend.
Why do you say people with reputation above 65 are voted automatically?
Pick anyone with reputation score of 65 plus and you will see. They write a post that 3-5 minutes read but a few seconds after publishing the post that article gets 100 upvotes. People do this anticipating to make some steem on curation rewards but nowadays curation rewards are so small. A minnow would be lucky if they make 0.001 STEEM curation reward. People will ignore your post because of your reputation score that's a tough truth and almost taboo to talk about.
