Why is my 100% voting power worth 0.00?

in #questions7 years ago (edited)

I was wondering if anyone could help me answer a question. I have been here for 8 days. The first 2 days I went wild with my likes. My voting power dropped down below 60% but my upvotes were still worth 0.01 . I then read about voting powers efffect on rewards and was able to raise my voting power over a couple of days . I let my voting power get up to around 80% and now my votes are woth 0.00.!.

Why are my votes suddenly worth nothing?

Even https://steemworld.org/@royaleagle
says that if i get my voting power back to 100% my votes will still only be worth 0.00.

Its very discouraging for a plankton to try to navigate and have incentive to stay on the platform if my votes aren't worth anything.

Still frustrating that my 90% vote power isn't worth anything!

I was hoping for an answer in the comments... but most is just bot crap... haha

I was hoping to find answers too....

Very weird, it started when I got my first payout... so maybe something went wrong there with the delegation

Check this post in the comments section... i think our voting power decreased because of the low price of steem, first comment was saying that as steem price rises our votes will be worth more.

I just read indeed :) that makes sense! it sucks still... but it does make sense. at least we know we are not doing anything wrong

Put in you SP it will show your vote worth, add 0s to the end if 100% = 0
My 15SP is worth 0.005 at the moment.

that is awesome! :) looks like I am back to 0.01 at the moment
