Lol that is in fact news to me! Did you calculate my account as well? So you are saying it should be better to autovote and also autovote at 5 minutes? - interesting!
cheers, lizanomadsoul
The wallet for @hivebuzz says the account has 6325 HP . The estimated curation rewards are 0.352 HP .
My guess is that @HiveBuzz is not curating for the specific goal of getting curation rewards.
I imagine that voting bots are designed with curation rewards in mind; So they would design things to maximize their curation rewards.
I think the ratio of curation rewards to hive power would be a very interesting metric to study.
I think the study would show is that bots (and people for that matter) that upvote specifically to get curation rewards have a higher ratio than those that are trying to engage with people in the platform.
NOTE: What I've been doing of late is to curate posts on the recently created page. I should have a higher ration than a person who is upvoting posts on the trending page. I notice that several accounts will get scores of upvotes precisely at 5 minutes. I assume that 5 minutes is the current sweet spot for upvotes.
Since HiveBuzz is in the business of analyzing accounts, I thought I would mention this as an interesting metric to measure.

You're right, curation rewards don't really matter to us. We distribute our votes to make as many people grow as possible.
