This is a report for the top Hive earners by category for January 2021.

Here we will be looking at the overall inflation distribution for HIVE, looking at the following

• Authors rewards
• Curators rewards
• Witnesses rewards
• DHF/DAO rewards

Overall HIVE rewarded by date in January 2021

First let’s see the total amount of HIVE rewarded by date in the month.
Here is a chart.

For comparison, all rewards have been converted to HIVE.

The DHF rewards are a bit specific and not constant. When a proposal is approved it starts receiving funds, because of what this category can vary in payouts.

On average there is around 77k HIVE rewarder per day in January 2021.

Next let’s take a look at the top earners for each category.

Top Authors

Here is the chart for the top 20 Hive authors that earned the most in December 2020.

Note: These are not totally accurate numbers because there is a conversion on HBD to HIVE and VESTS to HIVE, for simplification.

Author rewards are one of the most know in the blockchain as a lot of users are attract for them.

@tarazkp is on the top with more than 5k HIVE equivalent earned, followed by @taskmaster4450 and @oflyhigh. The top authors receive 2k to 5k HIVE as authors reward per month.

Top Curators

Here is the chart for the top 20 Hive curators that earned the most in January 2021.

The note from the authors reward applies here as well. The numbers are aporximate.

The @appreciator account has more than 8M HP with significant delegation from @freedom and it’s the largest account that is curating, ergo the curations rewards. It has around 80k HP earnings. The @ocdb account is next, followed by @blocktrades.

The account above are the biggest curators on the Hive blockchain. Hope they will do a great job in curating and making this place grow.

Top Witnesses

The top witnesses’ earnings charts look like this.

I have included more than 20 accounts in this chart to show the drop in earnings after the 20th spot. The top 20 are earning around the same amount of HIVE (HP), around 11k per month.

The DAO Payouts

Accounts that received funding from the DAO in the period.

DHF workers are paid in HBD, but an approximate conversion is made here in HIVE as well for simplicity and later comparison. The numbers are not exact but approximate.

@peak.proposals are on the top on the list, followed by @ecency and @howo. A total of 14 accounts received funding in January from the dev fund.

Top Earners Cumulative

From the data above we can compile the payout for a single ranking on overall top earners on the Hive blockchain in January 2021.

Here it the chart.

Note: These are not totally accurate numbers because there is a conversion on HBD to HIVE implemented, and VESTS to HIVE, for simplification.

I have separated the different earnings for the top accounts accordingly.

The @peak.proposal is on the top with around 96k HIVE equivalent as a DHF worker. Next is @appreciator as a curation account, @ecency on the third and @ocdb on the fourth position. Two large curators and two DHF workers.

The author rewards are colored in black, and we can see that in the top earners there is not much from the author rewards. The top authors were around 4k to 5k per month, and the last on the list above, is just above 10k with earnings.

The curation and DHF rewards category are dominating in the top 20 HIVE earners list.

All the best
