- A maximum of 37.5 Ecency Points can be accumulated using this method per day.

Voting rewards
Votes (both upvotes and downvotes) cast using the Ecency platform gives Ecency Points to the curator.
- Only the first 20 votes per day (UTC) provide Ecency Points, where the first vote gives a maximum of 1 Point and every subsequent vote gets 0.05 less maximum Points until the 20th vote which gives a maximum of only 0.05 Ecency Points.
- The Ecency Points awarded gets multiplied by the Voting Percentage of the vote. For example, if the user's third vote for the day is 50%, then the Points awarded for such vote is 0.45 (0.9 Points multiplied by 50% or 0.5). Therefore, to maximize Ecency Points earnings, it is recommended to perform high votes on Ecency and low votes on other Hive frontends.
- A maximum of 10.5 Ecency Points can be accumulated using this method per day.

When you say the original post, do you mean this one? If this one, I've just never seen such detailed data on the mechanics of Ecency Points. It's so curious that I can rise to the top of the Leaderboard when only the first few activities accrue Ecency Points. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

I think it's better to say "less worse" than "better", since both "overloaded" and "empty-minded" aren't good. 🤯😅

Feel free to multiply it by sending someone else !DIY in a comment :) You can do that x times a day depending on your balance so:!DIYSTATSBase on what I understand on this post. The Ecency Points are like a reward system for being active on the Ecency platform. You earn them by doing things like commenting, posting, voting, and just staying logged in.
There's a limit to how many points you can earn each day for each activity. For example, you get points for your first 16 comments, but each comment after the first one gives you fewer points.
You can use these points for cool stuff like getting perks, giving them to other users, or even trading them for other cryptocurrencies.
It's a great way to incentivize people to be active on the platform and contribute to the community.
Thanks for dropping by with a nice summary of my post! 🤗
