RE: SteemWorld ~ Weekly Support ~ #36
had a deeper look for you and looks like Steemit now publishes post-rewards as actually the post-payouts, hence deducting at source the lost curation rewards.
Exactly! I guess most platforms currently show the net amounts for paid out posts, because the nodes return that as total payout. I recently changed it on SteemWorld, so that the missing part will be added afterwards by calculating the burned payout as follows:
nBurned = ( nTotal / AUTHOR_PERCENTAGE ) - nTotal - nCurators
where AUTHOR_PERCENTAGE = 0.75
Yes, I noticed ages ago you show the % burned, which is a useful gauge of how much early voting happens.
BTW the curation rewards lost are not actually burned, that is, they are not sent to null, they are just left in the reward pool. people often say they are "returned to the reward pool" but that's not quite right either - they are just not taken out!
Thanks for your comment! Yes, the '% burned' is still not being shown for paid out posts currently (only added to the total payout), but I will add it also for those posts in one of the next versions.
It's all a bit confusing in the current UIs. Maybe we should find a better title for 'burned' like 'lost' or 'ineffective'. Might even be better to change it completely on all UIs and show also the coming payout amount always without the lost curation shares, because it's not really the correct coming payout when part of it will never be paid out anyway... :)
In that sense the 'total payout' that is being returned from the nodes after payout is correct.
