RE: Why Minnows Don't Buy STEEM
Thanks for the response. Hmm, yeah the voting power decay and recharge cycle are an odd wrinkle/dynamic in Steemit. On reddit, I can upvote all day long and a vote is a vote. Here, there are a lot of posts that talk about limiting your per day votes so that your VP is stable and/or is able to recharge. I am not sure what the answer is though. Hmm...
Last week I was still upvoting profligately, as had been my practice from the get-go. However, I read the white paper (which, apart from some relatively simple math, is not too impossible) and learned that if I didn't reign in my voting, my VP would continue to be debased and never recharge.
It seems that voting until your VP is down to 70% or so, and then waiting for recharge is about the best you can do. Your read of the white paper will prolly give you a better answer than I can.
