Thank you! No, I'm not a witness ;)

@steemchiller Your blog is just 7 days old, so it is a little too late for me to give it an upvote, but I am giving you a big upvote on the above comment instead. I use steemworld every day, and I would happily pay a small subscription fee to continue using it. Instead, I will regularly remember to give you a maximum upvote.

There is one small part of steemworld that I do not understand. It’s when I look at the info on a vote which was made. Please have a look at the two examples below:

D6A71C30-B207-47D3-AC4A-56313C8AC01A.jpeg

I understand most of the numbers shown in the example above. However, what is the meaning of the number circled in red?

Am I correct in thinking the vote is worth 50% in SBD and 50% in steem?

Logically I am expecting the amount to be the current (at the time of the vote) value in USD. However, I can’t make the maths work. For example, in the vote which I just gave you $5.32 should equal USD 11.97, - at least according to what is displayed.

Based on the present “external” prices, my maths would be as follows:
$2.66 in SBD worth USD 2.91 each = USD7.74 + $2.66 in steem makes a total of $10.40. So where does the USD 11.97 come from? The second example, of a vote by pi500 shows an even more extreme result.

Incidentally, I think your external price of SBD may come from coinmarketcap, whose price is distorted due to the HitBTC exchange which is showing a price of $14.98 per SBD. The REAL SBD price on Bittrex is about $1.75. (The maths does not work with that price either).

Hopefully you can clarify how the USD number is calculated and what it represents?

Thanks for your vote and your bug report! The USD amount for the single vote is indeed not correct. It looks like I've over-optimized the rewards calculation a bit in my recent code clean-up. I will fix it soon ;)


Now they are going completely crazy on HitBTC:

You are doing a lot of work for the Steem blockchain user. If you decide to become one, I am sure you will get a lot of votes!
