This tutorial is awesome! long time ago I wanted to understand these small parts of the code! but the code is still complicated for me (a lot of lines to search in).
The only part that I did not understand is this:
used_power = (weighted_voting_power + max_vote_denom - 1) / max_vote_denom
max_vote_denom is always equal to 50... means something like "50 votes are regenerated in 5 days"... because the vote_power_reserve_rate is the number of votes regenerated per day (Source).
Any ideas?
Good work. Thank you.
That part is still not very clear to me, either. That was directly taken from the C source code. When I get time, I was going to go through the history of that file to see if I could gain some insight from the series of commits that touched that line.
Hi @jfollas, I have not seen any of your posts for a while, which are so interesting.
Look, I just posted in detail how the steemit reward system works, I hope it helps.
Hi @jfollas, I read the code (I'm very tired, a lot of research), now it is more clear for me.
I posted an infographic about all this reward system, if you want to check out.
