I would estimate that from all current 30 day payout period 95% of total payout is made during 24 hours and 95% of those 95% is made during the first hour.
Why you expect some magical changes of this pattern to happen by extending payout period ?

I think that having a payout period extended would greatly increase chances for an occasional ‘whale vote’ AND a possibility for readers/followers to upvote really old posts of the authors they just discovered. I, for my part, am discovering many excellent posts on Steemit that are older than one month old. I would love to upvote them, but as it is, my vote won't make much of a difference to those posts or their authors.
