How Much Steem Power Do I Need To Have A One Cent Vote?steemCreated with Sketch.

in #steemit8 years ago

I just added more steem power and still not even a cent when I upvote. I often check this site steemdollar to see what my voting power is, usually in the high 80% to 90%. The site has said for a long time my voting power is over a cent but its obviously wrong.

How much SP do I need to actually add a cent to a post I upvote? I think my next Steemit goal is to reach a point where my upvote is worth one cent.

One can dream right?
xD

100%SteemPower post.

Sort:  

I am just a little over 4k SP, and my vote isn't worth a cent yet.

It all depends on the price and who else is voting there is no set amount our votes are worth. However, it is an interesting question.

How come I can vote at 60 to 74 percent power, alot of people , and my votes are worth 1 cent or more ! ? And I have 2,700 steem! But if you over vote your steem power will drop so low that you can actually harm people your upvoting as it will take cents away from them instead of adding ! So be careful and watch your steem power in steem stats ! 👍✌

Its making my mind spin trying to figure it out.
There has to be an answer to it, cant just be random luck.
xD
So far im thinking market value, vests, vote power, previous votes and then subtracting stuff like flags. there has to be some sort of formula or something.
Hopefully someone will see this and know the answer.
:D

The problem its a moving target.

If the post is over steep incline part of the payout curve, your vote moves the $s far more than if the post is down in the long tail.

The most annoying part is getting a post into the paying area of the graph.
From $0.00 to $0.01. This means you have to give it more vests than 3/4s of the posts produced that day. I haven't worked out where that cutoff actually falls.

And yes, steem is seriously favoured to the whales. Whale and minnow isn't a big fish vs a little fish analogy. It is an accurate size difference between yours and their vote. Whatever whales vote on moves the post value and so they get paid for curation. A minnow has to get up to 1/4Mvests before they start getting curation regularly.

Man, I didn't even think about curation. So the post you upvote and when you upvote it changes what your upvote is worth?
Someone needs to make something that will give u an average of what its worth.

nice explanation

i don't know. i've been trying to figure some of this out. such as, is there a way for me to track how many votes i've used in a day? how much 100% voting power do i have left until i recharge? how do i find the recharge rate? is it per 24 hour period? are we still at 40 100% votes per day?

Go to that site in the post and in the address change skeptic to lifeworship. it shows you what % your voting power is.mine is at like 965 ish right now. the value of upvote on it is obviously wong though.

i don't think i've ever added 5 cents to anyone's post. i must be depleted all the time from voting too much. i usually add 0 or 1 cent, at 100%

I don't think I have ever seen it go up 1cent when I upvote ever ever .... ever..
lol
It would be a huge moral booster if I actually could see my upvote making a difference.

i think the few times i've seen it go up, it was just on the verge of doing so anyway, or in the time it took me to read the post, a bunch of people upvoted before i got to it.

Might have been your vote that pushed it over to the 1 cent side.
I would prolly do a little dance if I seen that happen when I upvoted something.
LOL

You are on the same page as me!
I am not sure whether you have read anything of mine but I shall be reading yours!
I have many supporters but none willing to sticj their head above the parapet.
One of the safety features for steemit is that divide and conquer is built into the system!
Namaste!
Fight for Truth!

I have over 7500 steem power and don't award a cent. Back in July (Steem was worth around $4 per steem) you could award $0.01 when you reached 250 steem or so.

So it definitely seems to be tied also to how much steem is worth at the time.

God damn, I may never get to add a cent then.
:O
The more I learn the more I realize how lop sided this site is towards the whales. I wonder how many minnow accounts (people under 1k steempower) it takes to make a cent with upvotes.
Maybe that is why the steemdollar site says my vote wis worth 6cents, might have to do with the value of what steem is now compared to what the price was when the site was made.

That is likely. Sometimes my vote combined with someone elses bumps it up by $0.01 now. Not usually. I'm not too worried about it. If the site continues and we continue to attract people then hopefully eventually Steem will be more valuable and we can add value again. Until then... I just vote. I tend to put 100% on posts and 33% on comments... that's just me.

I just leave mine and 100% and never change it, not like 33% of 0 o is any diffrnt then 100% of 0.
xD

I do the 33% because I vote quite a bit and don't want to dilute my voting super fast.

I give you 1 cent with upvote. Sometimes 2 but not often. That is the situation right now. Not good, but we should be patient.

that's awesome, someone earlier was saying it has to do with the value of steem too so if steem value goes up our upvotes will go up.
that will be nice.
I really hope I can give people 1 cent with my votes in the future.
:D

Yes it depends on the Steem Value. I used to be able to give 3 cents during the price peak when I only had 1500 SP. Now I have 71K and right now the max I can give is about 2 cents. 2017 will be our year I think.

Wow I didn't realize it lost that much value.
It sure would be nice if things make a huge turn around 2017.
xD

A few months ago my upvote was 13 cents with 18000 SP, so yes - it will be better later on. But I can understand you. Also curators are disappointed, not just authors.

Wow
Cant wait for the value to go back up then.
:D

just checked the same site and it says when i'm at 100% that i can give
$ 0.97731391824571 .. cool site btw! awesome resource

does that mean .97 cents? because i'm pretty sure i've never seen it give anyone that much and i upvote with 100% all the time? ;lol

Yeah im not sure on it, I only use that site to check what my voting % is as it has said for a long time my vote was worth over 1 cent.
Tbh it confuses the hell out of me.
I know someone on steemit knows the formula to figure out the value of vpvotes when at 100%.
someone should make a site that calculates what your upvote is worth. I would use it often.

Well, I went there and it said my 100% upvote was .15... but when I just upvoted this reply, nothing came up!

LOL
Welcome to my world.
xD

You can also check your steem power and alot more on "steem stats" ! In the steem apps section of the hamburger board ! Cool stuff ! It also shows how close you are to your reputation going up ! 👍😂😉

is it just steemstats.com?

Go to the menue , in the "apps centre ", located beside your face, upper right corner . You will find the app for "steem stats "in there ! Check it out its cool ! You can check out everyone else's stats as well !

that's kool I never seen that b4.
the steemstats sight wont load 4 me, its just a gray screen.

You went to the wrong place . It's an app , in the steemit apps section. Located in the menue , beside your face tap on that ! You will find all kinds of useful apps in the "steemit apps " just scroll down to that and click on it !
But for now here is the link ! I was just there and it's working fine ! https://steemstats.com/#/
