RE: Here's why your potential payouts are going down

in #steemit7 years ago

Question about "the experiment".

When the whales voted less, the minnows increased their power. But the total amount of rewards distributed, it was reduced, right?

Let´s phrase it in a different way. The rewards that are distributed are always the same, regardless of how much votes there are?

Sort:  

That's a good question.
The total rewards that are distributed on a daily basis are not always the same. It depends on the amount of STEEM in the reward pool. The amount of Steem that is added daily to the reward pool is always the same. Although, almost the same. It is about 9.5% of the virtual STEEM supply per year, but that percentage is slowly decreasing to 1% in the next 20 years.

Thanks.

And this dayly increase is distributed one way or another, or it might be rolled over if there is not enough voting?

It is being distributed anyway. If nobody votes except one, then the whole pool would go to that one post :)

So if the ammount of steem is ever decreasing.
The reward will also continue to decline?
That would be sad.
