Hmm, I seem to remember someone mentioning this to me recently? :)
My guess is a smoothing of the long tail, slightly. But over 500 accounts, this wouldn't look like much. Also, bot votes will likely muddy the water, and could make the smoothing look better than it is.
Will see :)
Not sure what "this" you're referring to @tarazkp, but certainly @abh12345 has the data gathering skills to put this together. For my interest, I would like to see a global presentation of how the EIP has effected our Steem blockchain. Otherwise, I don't know how one would go about picking 500 as a statistically accurate representative sample of all Steem accounts ...
I think the idea would be to take the top X earners a month prior to the fork, and do the same the month following. Look at the min/max/average.
The longtail, seen in the Steem bluepaper, is unlikely to become anything else, but if the EIP has softened the curve even a touch, then that would be seen as an improvement i think.
Okay @abh12345, I can see that telling part of the story. You know all about (I don't) what is available, in the way of global data, so it may well be my thoughts on it are impractical ...
