Why AT THIS MOMENT it's more convenient to set a post on 50%/50% than on 100% Power Up [ENG-ITA]
[ENG]
Hello everyone!
Today I am particularly prolific...the reason is certainly to be found in the news that are animating our platform in recent days and that provide me with many inspiration and ideas to share with the community.
The integration of the TRX wallet into the Steem blockchain and the overwhelming rise of the SBD price are the two most significant events. A new era opens up for both Steem and Tron and I hope it takes us very far.
In this post, I want to analyze some aspects of this contingent situation and try to give some suggestions to all users of the Steem community.
In particular, it's aimed at those who are interested in setting their posts to 100% Power Up to increase their SP.
I know, the title might seem contradictory...but follow me, keep reading the post and you will understand.
STEEM UNITS (STU)
Let's start by clarifying the first concept, the one concerning the Steem Units.
What are they? It's simply the number that indicates the total payout value of your post.

Let's take a post with a payout of 20 STU for easiness.
The division of rewards between author and curators is 50%/50%.
So you, as authors, will be entitled to 10 STU.
1 STU is the result of the ratio between the nominal value of SBD (1$) and the actual value of Steem (Internal Median Price calculated on the average of the last 3 days).
At the time of writing this post, Steem's Internal Median Price is 0.19700 $.

So currently 1 STU is 1.00/0.197 = 5.07 Steem (or SP)
At this point, a distinction must be made, depending on whether the post has been set to 100% Power Up or 50% SP/50% SBD.
In the first case, you will get 50.7 SP (10 x 5.07) and 50.7 TRX
In the second case, you will get 25.35 SP (5 x 5.07), 25.35 TRX and 5 SBD.
I hope that everything is clear so far.
Watch out because now comes the fun.
Let's assume you change your 5 SBD into Steem in the Internal Market.

IN THIS MOMENT you'd get 79,873 Steem!!
At this point you just need to Power Up and, added to the 25.35 SP, you will have in total 105.223 SP.
In practice it will be like setting the post on POWER UP 200%!

Be careful: this is not a rule that always applies, it's convenient now, in this market situation and it will be as long as the value of SBD is well over the dollar and the gap between Steem and SBD will be so wide.

My proposal
The Team pushes very much so that the posts are set to 100% Power Up and this is right! I totally agree with this line.
Having said that, I would like to make a proposal.
Since this type of procedure (I repeat, in this current situation) could bring greater revenues to users, we might think of...
Reward with extra votes (from @steemcurator02?) users who, after receiving the payout of their post set to 50%/50%, change SBD in Steem, Power Up them and post the screenshot of the operation in a comment?
We could think of a specific tag to insert in the comments, for example #powerup
I hope you like the idea and that you found the information I wanted to share in this post useful.
I wish the team is enthusiastic about this proposal and I'll be glad to have a feedback from many of you who are reading.
For any food for thought, opinions, explanations, suggestions...see you in the comments. ✌️

Ciao a tutti!
Oggi sono particolarmente prolifico...il motivo è sicuramente da ricercare nelle novità che stanno animando la nostra piattaforma di questi ultimi giorni e che mi forniscono moltissimi spunti e idee da condividere con la community.
L'integrazione del wallet TRX in Steem e il prepotente rialzo della quotazione di SBD sono i due eventi più significativi. Si apre una nuova era sia per Steem che per Tron e mi auguro che ci porti davvero lontano.
In questo post, voglio analizzare alcuni aspetti di questa situazione contingente e provare a dare qualche suggerimento a tutti gli utenti della community Steem.
In particolare, è rivolto a coloro i quali sono interessati a settare i loro post su 100% Power Up per aumentare il loro SP.
Lo so, il titolo potrebbe sembrare contraddittorio...ma seguitemi, continuate a leggere il post e capirete.
STEEM UNITS (STU)
Partiamo dal chiarire il primo concetto, quello che riguarda le Steem Units.
Che cosa sono? Semplicemente è il numerino che indica il valore totale del payout del vostro post.

Prendiamo per comodità un post con un payout di 20 STU.
La divisione dei rewards tra autore e curatori è del 50%/50%.
Quindi a voi, come autori, spetteranno 10 STU.
1 STU è il risultato del rapporto tra il valore nominale di SBD (1$) e il valore attuale di Steem (calcolato sulla media degli ultimi 3 giorni).
Nel momento in cui sto scrivendo il post, il valore interno medio di Steem è di 0.19700 $.

Quindi attualmente 1 STU = 1.00/0.197 cioè 5.07 Steem o SP
A questo punto, va fatta una distinzione, a seconda che si sia settato il post su 100% Power Up o su 50% SP/50% SBD.
Nel primo caso, si otterranno 50.7 SP (10 x 5.07) e 50.7 TRX
Nel secondo caso, si otterranno 25.35 SP (5 x 5.07), 25.35 TRX e 5 SBD.
Spero che sia tutto chiaro fino a questo momento.
Attenzione perché adesso viene il bello.
Ammettiamo che voi trasformiate i vostri 5 SBD in Steem nel market interno.

IN QUESTO MOMENTO otterreste 79.873 Steem!!
A questo punto vi basterà fare Power Up e, sommati ai 25.35 SP, avrete in totale 105.223 SP
In pratica sarà come aver settato il post su POWER UP 200%!

Fate attenzione: questa non è una regola che vale sempre, è conveniente adesso, in questa situazione di mercato e lo sarà fino a quando il valore di SBD sarà di molto oltre il dollaro e la forbice tra Steem e SBD sarà così ampia.

La mia proposta
Il Team spinge molto perché i post vengano settati su 100% Power Up e fa bene! Mi trovo totalmente d'accordo con questa linea.
Detto ciò, vorrei fare una proposta.
Visto che questo tipo di procedura (ripeto, in questa situazione attuale) potrebbe portare maggiori introiti agli utenti, si potrebbe pensare di
premiare con dei voti extra (magari da @steemcurator02) gli utenti che, dopo aver ricevuto il payout del loro post settato su 50%/50%, cambiano SBD in Steem, fanno Power Up e postano lo screenshot dell'operazione in un commento?
Si potrebbe pensare ad un tag da inserire nei commenti, per esempio #powerup
Spero che l'idea vi piaccia e che abbiate trovato utile le informazioni che ho voluto condividere in questo post.
Mi auguro che il Team sia entusiasta di questa proposta e spero di avere un riscontro da tanti di voi che state leggendo.
Per qualunque spunto di riflessione, opinioni, delucidazioni, suggerimenti...ci vediamo nei commenti. ✌️
Grazie a tutti voi per aver letto il mio post.

Interesting read @girolamomarotta
I've also noticed that not always 100% power up would be the most profitable. The problem I see is the fact, that our payout will take place 7 days from posting today.
And even if SBD has been pumped to some insane level (like 5$ lately) -> it's very unlikely that 7 days later price will still be so high. Most likely it will go back to regular level (1$)
Wouldn't you agree?
Enjoy upcoming weekend,
Piotr
Hi Piotr, thanks for reading!
Your statement makes sense, in fact I have written everywhere AT THIS MOMENT in large letters. 😄
We are faced with a technicality, I know it well...I believe, however, that even if the value drops to 1$, we would be in an equal situation in terms of rewards obtained with 50%/50% and 100% Power Up. In the past, these situations have often occurred with a gradual decline, so, except in the case of a vertical downfall, every day when you publish your post can decide which strategy to implement.
Good weekend to you too!
Girolamo
certo che conviene .....al 50% e poi cambiare gli sbd
Tu sei una veterana e lo sai, ma tanti nuovi utenti secondo me questo sistema non lo conoscevano...
Intanto vediamo se al Team piace la mia proposta.
La proposta è ottima...
Greetings friend @girolamomarot.
I have studied this situation since yesterday, so I have made the transformation of my SBD to Steem, to get more Steem, only I have not activated them to Steem Power.
That's why I share your idea.
Yes, I think it’s a good strategy.
Even if you don’t power up in this moment, you can have more Steem tokens and decide to re-buy SBD when the ratio will be favourable.
Anyway, I know that many users are able to manage this type of situation, my post wants to help who’s new here (and maybe not so expert) to earn more sp and be able to grow more quickly.
Thanks for reading ✌️
Girolamo
#twopercent #italy #italia
Non ho ancora mai fatto power up, quindi potrebbe essere la volta buona per provare!
Greetings friend @girolamomarotta, always learning from those who know the most, it seems like a good suggestion. We should all support our platform after all for me it was the first and here I learned the basics.
Good analysis.
We have been aware of this current situation.
Unfortunately the tracking and verification of this scenario would be much too time consuming...
The 7 day variance in the SBD price would also come into play. If it goes down too much the advantage would be lost. If it goes up further the temptation to sell to realize the windfall gain might be too great...
It will be for each person to make their own choice on this.
Thank you
Ok, thanks to you.
I understand that handling such a thing can be quite complicated.
I'm glad that you found it interesting, I am absolutely convinced that the growth and evolution of users also passes through this type of knowledge and ability to make the right moves in market situations.
That's why I had thought of sharing and proposing this initiative. Hopefully, if I can do something to put it into practice, even locally or as a test area, let me know, I'm available to collaborate.
If you would like to try it in the Steem Italy community and then maybe make a weekly post listing those you have verified as doing the SBD/STEEM/powerup.
If that post was set to Power Up100% and you set the appropriate beneficiaries, we could then give an extra vote to that post.
Would that work?
I think it would work very well. I saw Italian users very receptive and interested when I talked about this theme.
Ok, I do it. I also like the formula you proposed...your mind is always brilliant.
It will be called 200% POWER UP!! and I am sure it will be a success.
Really glad for the opportunity...thank you very much ✌️
Great, will look out for it.
Feel free to tag @steemcurator01 / @steemcurator02 if we miss it.
