RE: Reactions to HF 19 - Linear Rewards, Vote Strength, Changes in Payouts, Self Voting, etc.

Thanks @timcliff,
I'm new on the content creation and consuming side here and this helped me understand voting and rewards a little better.. Much appreciated. I'm still trying to understand the benefit of not giving someone a 100% upvote all the time and how some upvotes lower stuff but I'm trying to figure it all out.

Sort:  

Well, a 100% vote will use 2% of your remaining voting power. Let's assume that a 100% upvote from you pays out $0.20. If you change your vote and vote with 25% strength, then you will only use up .5% of your remaining voting power, but your upvote will only add $0.05 to the rewards. Hope that helps :)

@timcliff. Ah thanks. That helps A LOT. I figured it was something like that. Now- can you provide clarity around your voting power going down the more you vote. That's still a bit confusing.

Thanks @timcliff. This clears things up. Much appreciaeted.
