Witness Update - DragosRoua

[dragosroua]

Technical and Economical

• my witness node had a small outage (shared memory size) but reconfigured it in a few hours and it's running smoothly now
• kept my price feed at 300%, following a broader attempt of witnesses to normalize the SBD price, which, at the moment of writing, is trading at over $6.44 - for a brief period of time SBD was trading lower than STEEM, so this seems to be working
• kept my SBD APR at 1%
• kept my account registration fee at 0.1 STEEM, synchronizing with the majority of witnesses (I use a script called steem witness toolbox, available for free on Github, for publishing the feed price and adjusting a few blockchain props)
• kept the block size at 65,536

Community

• opened an issue on Github, about displaying an informative message about bandwidth in Steemit to new users

• updated steem.supply three times, with many improvements and bug fixes:
  -- Steem.Supply Update: API Calls Updated, Page Load Time Improved
  -- Steem Supply Update: Rewards Calculator
  -- Steem.Supply Update: Calculating Posts With 100% Power Up, Comments Rewards Calculation Bugs Fixed

• published a few posts related to the Steem community:
  -- SBD Is For STEEM What Bitcoin Is For Alts
  -- No, Your Reputation Didn't Suddenly Go To 25, It's Just A Display Bug And It's Being Worked On
  -- Total Rewards Fund In STEEM Slightly Increasing, Indicating Less Activity On The Platform

I'm a serial entrepreneur, blogger and ultrarunner. You can find me mainly on my blog at Dragos Roua where I write about productivity, business, relationships and running. Here on Steemit you may stay updated by following me @dragosroua.

Wanna know when you're getting paid?

	I know the feeling. That's why I created steem.supply, an easy to use and accurate tool for calculating your Steemit rewards

It's free to use, but if you think this is a useful addition, I'd appreciate your witness vote.

Thank you!

Can you please explain what this means?

kept my SBD APR at 1%

Cheers

[dragosroua]

The interest rate you get by holding SBD.

[cutemachine]

Thank you, Dragos.

So as the price of Steem increases and SBD decreases, does that mean the amount of SBD that is distributed stay increased?

[dragosroua]

The amount of SBD that is distributed is controlled by the price feed bias set by witnesses. At the moment, because SBD is trading way higher than it's supposed to, a few witnesses (including me) are adjusting their price feeds, so that more SBD are printed.
