Thats what i wanted to ask too @hisnameisolllie, the other day i had a reward of $345 but at the time of payout it suddenly down to $260. I know the reason is due to the price of steem but what i do not know is the reason why it goes down.

They will soon fix it! They will only show the actual amount the authors get to avoid confusion (curator's reward will show separate)

Thanks for that post @liondani
Thanks I noticed that today. I like it. What about this to drive activity. A Steem activity lotto. We could do it so it does not lead to spam. https://steemit.com/steem-ideas/@dennygalindo/steem-idea-ways-to-increase-active-users-activity-lotto
Nice one, I keep saying I'll come back to Github on a regular basis to check on the updates there but always move passed it :)
Nice to see this improvement. Thank you for opening the issue and thank you to @roadscape for fixing it.
To provide a clear reason and include all the details plus specific sources to answer your comment @juvyjabian:
The post reward value listed on the post before the payout includes everything paid out to the author and the curators (people who upvote the post). The split is 75% for the author and 25% to the curators, that is indeed fully correct if nobody votes <30 minutes from the post publishing moment. Anyone who upvotes before 30 mins passed gives some of the curation reward back to the author.
The post reward listed on the post after the payout includes only what was paid to the author.
To see the exact amounts that I'm referring to above go to your post, in the url, directly in the browser, change steemit.com with steemd.com (you can change only it to d but I wanted to give the whole picture) and you will see more details about your post.
For the top box you will see some json_metadata. In that place look for:
total_payout_value 260.076 SBDcurator_payout_value 86.441 SBDThe rest is rather clear I believe.
Oh my mistake
no worries, been there :)
25% of payout goes to curators awards
The reason is because a portion of it is taken by the people who upvote, especially whales. They help you get more value, you keep 50%, then of the 50% left, you can end up keeping 50% more of that 50%, or 25% more of the 50%, etc., but the voters get some of the value they created for you. You don't get to keep it all. The upvoters helped to create the value you get, and they get part of the value generated in the payout for doing so, so everyone win. You win the most though, since if they didn't upvote you, you would not even of gotten what you got. Hope that helps to understand things. Peace.
Yes but i thought the 50% will be based on the total reward
25% goes to curators
Yeah but my understanding with the 25% was different :)
