On reading the initial detail of the voting window/curation rewards change 6 months or so ago, this was not how I understood it. (And thought the rewards would be put into the pool of the actual post being curated).
I'm hoping the pool is bigger for all, but it sounds like big votes (bot votes) could potentially scoop up most of the 'extra' rewards. Not ideal if so :/
As always, more reading required - tag me in if you spot something Dave, cheers!
It will be interesting to see how it pans out, and I'm hopeful it's not as bad as folks suspect. STEEM at 1.7 right now, about time we had a lift!
