I'm not exactly sure why the value of posts go down either. This is happening to me too. I had a post that was 40+ dollars for instance, but then it went down to 22 in a matter of six or seven days. I think it could be because of the voting power; so the system shows the value assuming the voter won't vote anymore for the next seven days, but as the voter votes more and more, the value of his/her previous votes drop! This is what I think is happening. I could be wrong!

Yeah thats what I was thinking. Sucks. They should lock in the vote power or value at the time of voting otherwise its kind of hard to know what is even worth your time. Idk. Its just discouraging to see something and expect something and then within less than a week its like half as valuable. Made my "I made my first $40 post" post look reeeeally dumb haha
It could be due to fluctuations in the price of Steem.
I doubt it! I'm pretty sure it's got something to do with what I tried to explain above!
It will be nice to get an explanation. I've had a post drop a couple of dollars since yesterday, but thought it might be a result of the market. I'll keep monitoring it, though I'm less worried about that than my posts disappearing.
Yeah if the steem value went down when post value went down, thats the answer
