RE: Why Am I Betting Big On SPT?

Great post! I'm not seeing the 50% return on SPT voting that you're mentioning here though. I know it depends on the vote reward pool and who votes before and after you. Most of my Splintertalk votes only return about 25% of my vote value. Once in a while I'll vote on one before a whale hits it and I'll get more, but that's more the exception than the rule.

Shouldn't be...Should be whatever you vote you will get 50% of it back?
50% of a post payout goes to the author and 50% goes to the curators overall. But it's not an exact 50% of your vote comes back to you in rewards, it all depends on when you vote and who votes before and after you. I'm sure there's a mathematical explanation for it somewhere, but when I check my curation payouts, I get less than 30% vote value return when I vote after the whales and I get more than 100% of my vote value if I vote early before any whales.
Unless Splintertalk kept the old rewards curve. Hive changed it's rewards curve. Doesn't matter when you vote now, 5 minutes or 5 days. But maybe someone like @flauwy can confirm...Pretty sure it's 50% back on whatever you vote.
Yeah I'd be curious to hear more about it. I'm just going by the SPT curation payout listed for me at Splintertalk and compare it with the vote value listed on that same post. Here's an example from a @chronocrypto post I voted on: https://www.splintertalk.io/@chronocrypto/picked-up-some-reward-cards-true-investment-idea
My vote value is listed as 3.775359, but the curation reward in my wallet says I received "Curation reward: 1.107336 SPT for chronocrypto/picked-up-some-reward-cards-true-investment-idea" which is about 29% of my vote value.
SPT is 50/50 curation rewards but doesn't have a linear reward curve. Early curation is rewarded higher - which sucks. Will probably change sooner or later.

Ahhhh that sucks! Wonder why they haven't made the change yet? Thanks for clearing it up though!
