RE: chainBB beta update - new forums + claiming rewards + post previews

in #chainbb8 years ago

Hi.
A question about the payout.

I learned that, for every post from chainbb, author will get only 60% of the payout, am I get it right?

But, from the payout I get today, why do I still get 75% (25% to curator) from the "potential payout" amount shown in Steemit?

For payout that I received yesterday, I even get 90% of the potential payout shown.

All posts mentioned I published them via chainbb.

Do I misunderstand something?

Sort:  

You are correct about the chainBB percent.

The way curation rewards (the 25%) works is somewhat strange, which is probably what's throwing you off. During the first 30 minutes of the post, a portion of the curation rewards are surrendered by the curators to the author. This causes you to earn >75% when posting via via Steemit.com.

I'm not sure how you accomplished that via chainBB though - do you have a specific post as an example? I'm going to guess that the curation and chainBB rewards did come out, but the value may have fluctuated due to the price of Steem changing, and that's what caused the increase.

Hrm, I think there's a display issue on how steemit.com is reporting those payout values. It looks like they aren't showing the benefactor rewards like chainBB earns on those values.

The numbers they show are the values after the split comes out.

I see. Thanks for clarifying :)
