Hey there, @therealwolf here to give an official statement regarding our recent voting calculation problems.
What's the problem?
There have been a lot of questions recently about the difference between our displayed vote value which we report on our comments or display on our website and the actual received vote value shown on Steemit.
Why does this problem happen?
The reason for this difference is that we calculate and execute the upvote without rounding it - which results in upvotes like:
5.2% or 3.7%
The Steem blockchain records the unrounded value but pays out in rounded values, rounded either up or down. Meaning:
5.2% becomes 5.0% and 3.7% becomes 4.0% etc
This results in the vote value either increasing or decreasing. So sometimes your value gets increased to more than you actually expected and sometimes reduced to less than you should receive. (but normally still more than you send).
Now, because our Steem Power is currently so high - the difference between 1% more or less is big; over $1.
While we know and understand this problem - there is currently not much we can do until we have implemented a system that handles the small differences.
Additionally, I want to mention that, if you check the voting value through steemnow.com - the rounding happens often in very weird ways.
0.1 rounds to 1
1.1 rounds to 2
1.5 rounds to 2
1.9 rounds to 2
So keep that in mind when you calculate the value yourself.
Our Solution
We will soon have a system in place where those problems will be fixed, but until then please keep in mind that we're doing our best to give you the best return on your investments!
Until then we have reduced the Daily Limit to 5 and Weekly Limit to 15.
And even while those calculation problems are happening - MinnowBooster is still giving out very good returns and you should get at least your money back.
If you are getting an upvote that is less than the amount you send - for example: you send 3 SBD and got only a 2.85$ Upvote, then contact our customer support on discord. (@furious-one can help you out)
Last but not least - keep also in mind that as the Steem value and the reward balance/claims changes - the upvote value changes too and this can create a difference in comparison to what MinnowBooster comments under your post.
For example: If Steem has a value of $1.40 and you get an upvote from MinnowBooster - we calculate the spot value at that time. If Steem drops to $1.00 thereafter - the upvote value drops too, but the value on the comment/image under your posts stays the same, conversly if the price of Steem goes up higher the value increases but the comment value in our upvote image remains the same, because it was the spot value you received at the time.
I hope this explanation was detailed enough.
If you still have questions - please ask them in the comments below and I will make sure to answer them!

This is what I have been noticing for many days, Earnings on your post goes down and down, it is not only the case with @minnowbooster, it is happening in general. But yeah still people receive a heavy Upvote than their investments from @minnowbooster.
Yes you are right... I can also clearly see how less the earning amount is getting less in 7 days, and finally getting less payout...

Looks like you got a vote, but perhaps not the one you were looking for.
To be clear, your above behavior is discouraged on this platform. Make good content; don't beg. I've seen your comments on several of @minnowbooster's posts. Anybody can see all of your comments, by going here: https://steemit.com/@zaaalim/comments
This is a transparent platform. Govern yourself accordingly.
Thank you for the information. I am only using @minnowbooster for "upvotes" for a week and I was more than satisfied with my returns.
We are glad to hear that :) Thank you for using MinnowBooster
I am new here. SO this is an outside option to how I am upvoting now?
~Connie🖖

Yup on point and on time :)
If I check how many Steemians upvoted a post (for example this post), I don't see the voting percentages and the voting values beside the names.
Is that okay?
I think you are not using this plugin
Yes, that's true. I didn't use that plugin, because I didn't know about it. Thanks for the info!
Enjoy Steemit!
Have a nice day and have a nice weekend!
More grease to your elbow @minnowbooster ,,,,,
We love minnowbooster and any project minnows, this is one of the few good bots. Maybe because I am a minnow, I just love me any good project for minnow :)

Wow amazing post
Hope you will fix it soon, cause with 25% goes to curation, the reward is almost always less of what we pay.. thanks.
Upvote right after you post and the author keeps most of the curation rewards.
Has the minimum spend now gone back up to 5 sbd? That's what the table says, just wondering if that's an error. Thanks
Good article. Thank you for

Nice Post you talk about upvote problem. Thank you disscus for steemut upvote problem...
Hi all, look for a robot in the field of 0.2 and 1 sbd
Really very cool post and knowledgeable love it
It's good that you clarified this but i never notice what I get from voting. My joy is finding new things (or people)to vote for and old ones (people) I liked before. You are obviously addressing investors here but I am in a way just that, the more I earn for myself and others, the better Steemit becomes. They should start reading Steemit as a community and make it grow by communicating with others. They'd learn a lot. JV
nice post...even your all post just awsome.. I think you will be a famous steemer....
Thank you for clarification.
Great solution👌
Thanks for the informations, it seems like this is transparent, but sometimes it is also possible to get the same amount of money / prizes as the original text is waiting in the inside, and if it is also true that many people are searching for excitement with making a steemite money, such problems will cause the system to be chilled. Otherwise, most people will be dissatisfied and stay away. Thank you.
great post keep going and thx for the info

You could just not add any amount in the goat image, or even don't add any image at all.
This post has been ranked within the top 10 most undervalued posts in the first half of Oct 15. We estimate that this post is undervalued by $84.89 as compared to a scenario in which every voter had an equal say.
See the full rankings and details in The Daily Tribune: Oct 15 - Part I. You can also read about some of our methodology, data analysis and technical details in our initial post.
If you are the author and would prefer not to receive these comments, simply reply "Stop" to this comment.
I hope that the daily limit of 5sbd and weekly limit of 15sbd can be increased soon as I feel that this limit is too low.
I am still new to STEEMIT and looking to learn these upvoting details. Thanks for this post, it allowed me to see your video tutorials. Yaaay! I am into the video world too. You might like my stuff, take a look. either way, I like yours. thanks again!
