If you have 10K Blurt Power, don't vote 30 witnesses!!! Here is why!

What a coincidence that you made a post about this. I've always been curious about this.

If a user votes for 1 witness when he has 100 BP, after a long time has passed he has 5000 BP and votes for another 1 witness. Will the first witness he voted for also get a vote value as the user's BP increases? Or the first witness that the user voted for will get the same vote value as the second witness right when the user votes on the second witness?

The weight of your witness vote grows organically with your rising Blurt Power. That means:

You vote 2 witnesses with your 100 BP: Each will recieve 50 BP (100 BP ÷ 2 votes). When you power up a further 100 BP, 50 BP will be added to each of your witness votes automatically. (now 200 BP ÷ 2 votes) and so on and so on.

Ok, I get it now.
So also if a user gets a delegation from another user, the BP value will be divided equally to all witnesses that are voted by the user. Vice versa when the delegation is revoked.

Thank you for the explanation.

Previously I thought that the value of our vote was calculated only at the value of our BP when voting.

Delegation doesn't count! Delegation stays as voting power with the delegatee! You cannot transfer witness voting power! Only your OWN Blurt power counts as voting power!
