After HF 17, posts are paid out on a weekly basis and reward pool will contain on average $50,000 and payout an average of $6-7K per day. An extremely popular post (relative to everything else) could still pull in $15K even at today's valuation.
Overall HF17 should smooth the rewards and prevent large posts from dramatically impacting the average payout-per-vote of other posts.
Cool, thanks Dan!
Nice, can't wait for the 7 day rollout :)
