Orca By The Snapshot It Looks Like

in blurtlife •  4 years ago 

My concerns were in regards to the drop in value per vote. Based on a rough estimation, at the power I'm at currently my vote value seems to erode approximately .39 for the first 100% upvote, then another .35 for the second etc. Which means that by the time I would reach 82% voting power if I award a 100% upvote at that time the person being voted for will only see a vote for 13.541 instead of the 16.691 I initially could give.

Which gets further exasperated when I (like the other day) draw it down to 60%, which put it close to the 10.00 area.

I am finding it to easy to vote so much that I run through the 10 votes and still see so many things I wish to upvote. So thinking here that if I primarily shift to a 50% voting that would potentially double my votes without eroding the value so badly. I will confess the other day when I stopped at 60% I still saw things to upvote. If I continue this behavior it will compound on itself till I have almost no voting power at all, lol.

I have noticed one difference on voting, and that is the elimination of stake vote theft dependent on when you vote. It allows for there to be curation many days later without fear of handing most of your vote to those in front of you who voted.

I was often hit with this as I always manually curate and those I followed often would post many hours to almost a day before I could vote. Many of their voters autovoting in the first 4 to 5 minutes to grab value from the aftervotes like mine.

Its refreshing to see votes here placed sometimes days after the post was made.

But does it matter? The cumulative votes increase :-)
Unlike steem/hive, vote value does not erode down the unrewarding curve - hence 2 x 50% = 100% , something that is not true on the other chains.
