RE: Minnow voting power from the record $30 000 "makeup post" perspective.
New users shouldn't vote too often, beacuse with every vote their voting power will reduce a little bit.
Your voting power looks like about this: Steempower / Your daily votes.
Steam has a moving avarage to calculate your daily votes. If you don't vote for 24 hours you will get your maximum voting power.
Spot on. Many people are trying to make a quick buck and don't see the real value of the platform. You've got my vote:)
The above comment is the example of a great comment, which should get lots of votes.
Thanks, I wanted to add something useful to the subject. :)
And very useful it is. Both from a content perspective and also to illustrate the point.
Ironically, now I'm scared to vote on it.
I don't agree, your own voting power doesn't matter as a minnow, all that matters is to upvote something before some dolphins or a whale does so ... which means; vote as much as possible, but still selective of course, it still needs to be something good, otherwise it's not going to get any whale votes
it's basically gambling ... doing the math; only vote for good content, but the more the better
You are right. Spoting the trending articles before the crowd is essential.
5 weeks ago I didn't know about it. At time there were new users who upvoted everything, to receive curation rewards, they had about 20-30% voting power. I reflected to this behaviour.
