RE: Steem - Post Payouts & Steem Health Part 2
The proportion of posters getting 90% of the rewards is not really that bad. I don't like the downwards trend, but it's likely due to a surge in new users going on recently.
The downward trend I am showing represents the proportion of people getting 90% of the daily rewards. This metric reducing implies that the daily reward is being distributed to a larger proportion of people. I think this is a good for the health of Steem and Steemit.
Surely it's the opposite? If 90% of the rewards are going to a smaller percent, it is a smaller proportion of the network getting almost all the rewards.
Ill edit to make the heading more clear.
Effectively the number of accounts that get 90% of the rewards is dropping.
We've got our wires crossed somehow. I'm still not seeing how that's a good thing.
We did get our wires crossed. I think your way of looking at this is better.
It will all be about perspective but this metric dropping will mean fewer people are getting more of the rewards which is not a good health indicator for Steem.
Although it's fewer proportionally, while the userbase has been surging. The absolute numbers are looking good, the money is going to more people. Hopefully the proportional numbers will balance out again when we are outside of such a surge.
