The price of Steem that is being used to calculate the payouts is mostly a few days behind the current Steem price. The platform uses a 3 day median price.
The price that was used to calculate the payouts yesterday was $1.55. Today it stands at $1.30.
You can find this current 3 day median price in the top right corner on my website https://www.steemnow.com
ok! thanks! that makes sense now!
Also, I observed my total account value has also decreased. Is this total amount also corrected with 3 days delay?
Yes, that's right. Your estimated account value is also calculated based on the 3 day median price.
