I hope you welcome an off topic question here. I had quite some activity this week in my blog. In my wallet now are unclaimed rewards of 3.347 HIVE, 0.044 HBD, 3.424 HP. That's the same for all wallets I know, apart from deviations in the third place after the decimal point.
However, in the ecency wallet history is a position named "Content reward" (see pic) and those do not add up with the sum of claims. I am asking you, because I do not see those positions in any other wallet. It is author rewards or curation rewards. Nothing like content rewards anywhere else. Do you have any information on this for me? Looking forward.
Content reward is overall reward for that particular content. Just information to give you insight, it is not what you receive but what overall content payout was.
Thank you. So this is purely additional information that is reflected from the post footer, right? I like that! Especially because it clearly states HBD, because the $ sign can be anything and I always wondered whether this is some kind of USD market trend calculation. So it is not!?
Yes it is from that and HBD is considered $1 which it mostly is and sometimes goes down/up slightly, value could be displayed in different currencies on Ecency, you can change the currency in that case market price conversion is used. Did you know you can view your rewards in Euro or Indian Rupee or even in BTC?
Now I do! But while you asked: I'd love to know more about those conversions and pegging like who, when, how these things are calculated. Not all exchanges have the same market price, right? I don't see that reflected enough in all the frontends.
Even in Hive-Engine there's simply a $ sign in the wallet list. And I find myself completely left alone with the question of where these data come from and what estimate they are based on. Just expecting HBD to be valued like USD doesn't mean it really is, right?
PS: Oh, and I thought HBD stood for Hive Backed Dollar, like SBD did back in the day. And who or what is backing it? You guys at Ecency call it something else?
That should be Hive Backed Dollar, we will correct that.
Market price is averaged just like coingecko or coinmarkatcap.com.
