RE: Don't cast worthless votes - zero-value votes in HF20

in #utopian-io6 years ago

Thank you, this needed explaining, and I think you did a nice job of it.

so at least a part of the voters seem to have adjusted their voting behavior.

As for adjusting the behavior, in regards to more 100% votes, I think that has more to do with the price of steem and a persons knowledge of their vote being worth less with the price drop. I know I have had to adjust my vote levels. I only vote on a few people at 100%, most content votes with payout already established get a 50% vote, and comments are up to a 70% vote now due to steem price just to keep them above dust vote level, and to reward the commenters on my post or others.

Once again thanks for the post and explanation.

Hey @bashadow, thanks for your comment! I'm under the impression that your remarks are more towards the payout dust threshold of 0.02 STU? Is there a misunderstanding? I was focusing on the changes to the vote dust threshold. edit: now I mixed up the numbers, sorry.
Correction: assuming 100% voting mana, a vote with your current SP should only have zero value if the voting percentage is below around 0.2%.

Partially, but also in the other dust cast vote, the ones that add no value. If a vote (zero value), is registered does the caster still get a portion of a curation reward? Even if their vote was one of the zero value dust votes? (did not reach the minimum 50M rshares).

A zero-value value vote cannot earn curation rewards. The weight of the vote, that defines the share of the curation rewards, is calculated from the vote's rshares - which are 0 in this case.

Thank you, finally a real answer to a question, really appreciate that. Now I can stop futzing about it all.
