Account bandwidth status calculator 20170828

Maximum Virtual Bandwidth (MVP): 1.849688064e+18
Total Vesting Shares (TVS): 378251662406.06244

MVP and TVS are 2 system required variables we willuse to get our account's bandwith

What means bandwidth in Steem? :

Let’s view a blockchain like an Internet Service Provider (ISP) co-op which owns all of the cables in the town and has a maximum amount of bandwidth that it can provide at any time. People living in the town can buy shares in the ISP and in exchange they are entitled to utilize a portion of the available bandwidth.

Why is it getting important?

In the last days many steemians got locked because of lack of bandwith

The limit rate has been very volatil and developers are already working on fixing this

Every time we post we spend bandwith, we need to keep it above a dynamic level to be able to post , if we spend too much we wont be able to post for a while


You wont be able to post , vote or even Power UP your account , until you get more Steem Power or your bandw rate decreases

The formula uses also 2 more Account parameters :

  • Account Vesting Shares (AVS)
  • Account Average Bandwith (AAB)
we need to keep our bandwith use below the limit we get assigned based upon our Vesting Power

which formula is this:

AAB/MVP < AVS/TVS

which is also :
AVS/TVS- AAB/MVP >0

You can calculate account's bandwith state , by replying this post and writing :account_name
