Do you OWN those 198 authors? Everyone is free to upvote however they like just like you said.
Of course not, that's not the point, the point is you are using your 8M HP to specifically target my votes because you are mad about something (I can only assume I voted someone you vote for and are doing it in spite, especially after the regular messages from people asking me to stop voting them so you can vote them.)
Can you just stop telling lies again, you do upvote popular authors?
Let me rephrase it, I don't specifically vote on popular authors, it's not my criteria, there is no question some of my votes land on them, they are popular for a reason and that's a good thing as it means more curation rewards are burned in the reverse auction. Many of the people I vote became popular over time but were not when I started to vote them. There are hundreds (likely thousand) of popular authors I don't vote on because I don't like their content, they get enough support, or just not my thing, or I just simply haven't discovered them.
When did the reverse auction stop feeding into the trending page and start getting burned?
If I remember correctly it was HF21. The reverse auction was lowered from 30 minutes to 15 minutes and the rewards returned to the pool rather than going towards the author. (Now the reverse auction is 5 minutes).
It doesn't get burned, it gets returned to the pool (to payout to rewarded content) similar to declined rewards, subtle but significant difference.
Ok, that is what I had recorded in the ol' memory bank.
Reverse auction rewards go the biggest receivers of rewards and are not burned.
That had me confused.
Yes, here is a good example.
The other day I was looking at a post that was $36, with 50/50 rewards that is $18 for the author and $18 for the curators. The final numbers were more like $18 to author and $13 to curators due to the reverse auction.
Can you point me to where I track who takes the most out of the pool?
@statsmonkey used to show the top 10 votes taking ~25% of the daily rewards, is somebody tracking those numbers?
The reason I ask is about how the reward from the reverse auction, and flags, goes mostly to the top earners.
Is there somewhere I can see what percentage of the pool is going to whom, and in what proportion?
Or do I just need to learn/purchase code scripts to pull it myself?
@dalz does a lot of reports that show this information, I highly recommend following him if you have any interest.
I can generally pull any information as needed but he does publish a lot of this information regularlly.
Yes, I have him on one of my autovoters.
Can I get that data without an sql subscription?
Thanks, I found that post of dalz's, it was pretty complete.
I'm also wondering how much that first curator returns to the fortunate few.
I forget the exact numbers, but the first few (I believe five) curators have an advantage of earning more rshares than their stake allows, but they also give up the largest portion to the reverse auction. I never actually checked this or looked at the code related to it, but it is what I always heard in the past.
So, if I have a .01 immediate vote, what does that do to subsequent votes?
If that first votes sends nearly everything back, how much of the large vote is lost to that?
I explained your sole criteria of choosing those authors. They are easy targets for you to gain more curation rewards by sniping and your votes disappear when posts rewards become more than $2.
You also forgot the fact that you are doing curating snipping with 2M HP and that makes you the biggest curation sniper on Hive, just to gain rewards on personal account with delegated stake.
When you don't have any factual answer, you just make your own stupid theories.
You can explain them all you like doesn't make them facts.
Don't tell me you have started crying already
I cry myself to sleep every night.
I Thought I Was The Only One! 😭
#metoo
Ethereum will kill hive :) Better snipe more curation before all this ends :)
curation sniping below 2$? 😳 this must be super effective
If nobody voted on post with more than 2htu, we wouldn't be having the problems we have now, iyam.
I mean, do curation snipers really need those pennies they take from the poor that bad?
