Oh shit, I didn't make it to the "Most Swearing" list (again).
I'm not surprised that the average rewards are down... Hive is down, so the value will drop too.
I maintain that staying between 500-1000 words is the most efficient work-to-pay interval to be in.
This will probably be the last of such data, I've tested my hypothesis and published the data. It is up to curators to appropriately distribute rewards.
