RE: why does my steemit post lose money over time?
The value of steem fluctuates, so it may either increase or decrease without any upvoting or downvoting occurring. Then, when it pays out, those who voted on it get a portion, and the author gets the remainder.
thank you! :) yes, I learned about the "share" thins but I wasn't sure why the amount decreased. now I know - I appreciate it!
