What would happen if all of your followers vote %100 on your post?

Did you ever wonder this? I did. And here's steem-python to the rescue. This little python script;

• will iterate through your followers and sum their effective VESTS
• Calculate how much $$$$ will these VESTS generate

from steem import Steem
from steem.account import Account
from steem.amount import Amount
def effective_vests(acc):
    own_vests = Amount(acc['vesting_shares'])
    incoming_vests = Amount(acc['received_vesting_shares'])
    outgoing_vests = Amount(acc['delegated_vesting_shares'])
    return own_vests.amount + incoming_vests.amount - outgoing_vests.amount
def get_total_vest_of_followers(username):
    s = Steem(nodes=["https://api.steemit.com"])
    reward_fund = s.get_reward_fund('post')
    price = s.get_current_median_history_price()
    quote = Amount(price["quote"])
    base = Amount(price["base"])
    account = Account(username, steemd_instance=s)
    followers = account.get_followers()
    vests = 0
    for follower in followers:
        follower_acc = Account(follower, steemd_instance=s)
        follower_vests = effective_vests(follower_acc)
        print("Fetching follower info: %s - vests: %s" % (follower, follower_vests))
        vests += follower_vests
    print("Total vests", vests)
    vests = (vests * 1000000) * 0.02
    share_on_reward_fund = vests / float(reward_fund.get("recent_claims"))
    to_steem = share_on_reward_fund * Amount(reward_fund.get("reward_balance")).amount
    conversion_rate = base.amount / quote.amount
    post_reward_value = conversion_rate * to_steem
    print("Expected reward value:", post_reward_value)
    return post_reward_value
get_total_vest_of_followers("emrebeyler")

Result

---

If all of my followers will upvote this post with %100, I will get $275.55. Let's make it real. 🤓

Notes

---

• If you don't have a python environment but want to learn your potential, just request it from the comments, and I will calculate it for you.

• If your follower count is high, this script might take some time...

• If you want to understand the math behind it, have a look to @yabapmatt's How to calculate value of vote post.

• VP factor of the followers is ignored for the simplicity.

Grazie.
