RE: Reward Pool - Understanding the Concept

in #steemit7 years ago

I have a two part question thats been rattling around in my noggin for a few days.

Why must we "claim" rewards?
And if we do not claim them after a certain time to do they revert back to the reward pool?

I do not know for sure why the "Claim Rewards" was implemented. As I didn't see an explanation if there was one. One benefit is that it reduces the number of transactions. If you claim several rewards at once it only creates one transaction in your wallet. I don't have any association with SteemIt, Inc. So, I can't represent "why" they do things. :)

I do not think they go away, certainly not on any short-term basis.
