@edicted breaks down Hive Hardfork 28's key changes to voting and inflation in his latest post. Two major updates:
Voting Power Overhaul: Full (100%) upvotes now deliver consistent value regardless of your power level—no more diminishing returns. Power regenerates 20% daily and drops 2% per full vote, so you can strategically deplete to 0% power for flexibility. Great for curators: cast max votes on quality content without power worries, and easier to manage rests by voting down power.
Inflation Reduction: HBD held in the DHF no longer counts toward Hive inflation calculations, slashing it by ~26%. This means lower rewards for witnesses, pools, and overall prints, but the DHF grows stronger (potentially unfair edge via "ninjamine" Hive-to-HBD conversions). Could help at low prices like 10¢ HIVE, avoiding extra printing from successful investments.
Net positive for efficiency, but watch DHF dumping risks. Curators: These boost your voting control—test 'em out!
Curate @edicted for his clear breakdown and hard work keeping us informed!
