Key Stats for Authors – September 27 2016
Summary: Increase in Upvotes.
Number of posts are down by 11.5% and 67.9% of the posts are likely to receive a reward.
According to the Steemit Whitepaper the key metric for Steemit’s success is number of upvotes per day. Steemit measures itself against Reddit.
For Authors and Investors this metric is key to monitor the engagement of the Steemit community.

The number of upvotes for each day are based on the report taken the next day before 10 am UTC.
Please note that posts can collect additionally votes over a period of 1 month. The numbers could be around 3-5% higher over time. The idea of this statistic is to give you a trend over the current engagement of the curators.

I had to correct the statistics of yesterday. Active will record the day when a user of steemit was last active with a post. If a post receives an upvote the date and time of the upvote will determine the active date of the post and not when it was published.
The number of posts is another indicator about authors activity on the platform.

The statistics for posts is set by the date the post was created by the author.
How likely will authors receive a reward with their posts?

This statistic is based on the likely payout the post will receive based on the data of the same day. A post just published before midnight of this day will likely not yet have attracted enough upvoting power by the curators to get a likely reward.

Current Supply Of Steem: 168,752,165.076 STEEM (28.09.2016)
Steem in the Investment Fund: 160,934,635.957 STEEM (28.09.2016)

Free Liquid Steem: 7752510.351 (27.09.2016)
Payout Split for Author Rewards
This is due to a rule based on the market capitalization (market cap) of Steemit and the total amount of steem dollars. See coinmarketcap.com and on steemd.com you find the total Steem Dollars supply.
Steemit calculates the percentage of the steem dollar supply in relation to the market capitalization.
Percentage % = steem dollar supply / steem market capitalization
Today the result is 2.87 % = (2,261,354.304 SBD / 78,544,720 $) * 100
If the result is below 2% you get paid half of your author rewards in Steem Power and the other half in Steem Dollars.
Above 2% this will change. Instead of receiving half of your author reward all in Steem Dollar you get some of it now in Steem and the rest in Steem Dollars.
Between 2-5% there is a linear relation between what is paid in Steem Dollar and what is paid in Steem. The calculation is based on Percentage % minus 2 and then divided by 3. ( % - 2)/3.
Example: (3.5% - 2) = 1.5 and then 1.5/3 = 0.5 => result: half is paid in Steem Dollar and the other half is paid in Steem.
