@randowhale upvotes are not profitable for me anymore.
For example, I just sent 2 SBD for an upvote, 1 SBD is currently worth $1.7 so 2x SBD = $3.7
I received a 1.7% upvote (above average) which boosted my post with $3.34, I'll be receiving 75% of that so I'll be getting $2.505
So I basically lost $0.83 after receiving a 1.7% upvote. I didn't even break even!!
So no more @randowhale upvotes for me till the rate is reduced or upvote % is increased.
Thanks.
not counting your initial reward decay over time and its even less by payday.
Yes, exactly.
randowhale itself is good. on average it does give a bit more than you send. But flaw in current reward system, pulls some your rewards and gives to trending post, and you and losing. most people don't realize that. no more randowhale for me either for now
I just added a chart to the thread above explaining your observation. Check it out.
Thanks
I don't think it is once forever. @randowhale will still vote your subsequent posts if you post. I stand to be corrected.
Yup... That's what I was saying yesterday too.I received a 0,6% upvote. So paying 2SBD I received 1,79SBD. Counting that only 75% of that goes to the author of the post it is a loss.
I think you mean $1.79 not 1.79 SBD
yes.
