RE: Curation rewards are extremely low, only bots are willing to work for pennies/hour
I see you are third in this list http://steemwhales.com/trending/?p=1&d=30&s=cr
Is this a list of the best curators? how are best curators calculated? how is curation score made? are you using a bot?
It's a list of the most profitable curators, normalized by SP. I think the curation score is calculated by this formula:
(curation rewards earned in past X days) / (steem power).So if you look on the 7-day list, the top three are currently @laonie (a whale), @biophil (a dolphin), and @philipnbrown (a minnow). They each curate at about the same efficiency, even though their SP amounts are vastly different.
Yes, I do run a bot. If you look through my account's voting history, you'll see that my bot never votes for popular posts - it specifically searches for posts that might have high rewards, but haven't received many votes yet.
If you'd like, you can send me your Posting Key and I can add you to my bot so you can rise up on the list of best curators as well. :)
Do you have an email address where I can send you my posting key? Thank you
Got your key, added it to my bot, and it all worked. You've already cast a vote or two. Results not guaranteed! :)
Yeah, you can grab my scraping-resistant email address here: http://www.ece.ucsb.edu/~pnbrown/
I have sent you an email with my key.
Let me know if you have it.
Thx
