RE: Curation rewards vs author rewards

in #hive11 days ago

It is definitely a neat ratio to look at to gauge your progress.

All time, my curation rewards are about 13% of author rewards. That is a bit of a silly ratio as that includes years with dust as a stake all the way up to ~25k where I am presently.

I would say the 30-day stat would be a better indicator but I have screwed that up with a month with a little too much life getting into the way of blockchain. 6.31% seems a little skewed as my stake actually means when I can’t make the time to spin a yarn.

That might be in part to the fact I have never used an auto voted and all of my 10s of thousands of upvotes have been manual clicks. Maybe also because I had half of my stake delegated out for years and am still at around 20%

I still break author earnings down to the sum effect of Author Content + Networking + Time. If someone. Wants more author rewards, sure content quality is important but will be frustrating to measure if you don’t pour yourself into networking, aka commenting.

When I want more author rewards, I keep rolling with content and then spend time hunting out community supporting folks like you. People with an enviable stake and look to use it to reward the people who take the time to intelligently comment on content. I probably would earn more if I simply created more posts and I often put more thought and effort into a comment than many put into their posts! ;)

As a Zeke #hive hack for the newer folks networking and commenting, include a picture in your comments to stand out from the others! Commenting = Networking and putting effort into commenting can grab the attention of friends like @solominer who use their stake to build the community one member at a time.
