Hello, I have been some years on hive but still don't get how rewards work exactly. When I receive let's say 10 dollar up votes, which part of it do I really get? Seems that I don't get all the author reward when it states 10 $, always receive only a fragment of that... Am I doing something wrong? I used to not up vote my own content, is that wrong or do I get less when I don't up vote my own content? Thanks for the help!
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The total rewards for a post are split between the author and curators 50/50. So, if you your post payout is $10, then you get $5 and the other $5 is split among curators (everybody who voted on the post) based on their vote hp and weight.
The $5 you receive are also split into 50/50. Half you get as hp, and the other half as HBD.
You are free to vote on your own content if you like. But it is better to use your votes on others since you receive 50% back anyway in curation rewards.
Thank you, now I know :)
Maybe I confused the hp and hdollar stuff but still not sure ;)
