RE: New Curation Reward Algorithm: Penalty to Early Voters

in #steem8 years ago

You have to remember this "penalty" to curation rewards is actually a bonus for the post author. The earlier you vote for a post, the more of your rewards go to the author of the post instead of you. So by voting early you are saying "This was a really good post, the author deservers most of my curation reward". Here's a table representation of the reward split between author and curator over time:

Vote TimeAuthorCurator
3mins99%1%
5mins97.2%2.8%
10mins89%11%
20mins54%44%
30mins0%100%
Sort:  

So what happens then after 30 minutes? It always goes to 100% the curator?

Yes, but remember we're only talking about the curation rewards here, the portion of the rewards that go to the person upvoting a post. The author rewards are not affected by this function (apart from the bonus that the receive).

So an author upvoting his own post for example would get both parts of this reward.

Ah, right. That's true. Thanks!

Is it implemeted Now?
