Tumbleweed for Sale / DV+Comment+Bid-Bot data

(Edited)

An update to the lists produced last weekend - Both Steem Power usage and Downvote numbers are up considerably.

Further to this post and this post and a couple of requests elsewhere, some more numbers on downvotes and payouts following the recent fork.

The table below shows the number of downvotes and total SP going into downvotes, using the weight of each vote and the SP owned by the voter.

e.g. If a voter had 1000 SP and cast a 50% downvote, that would be 500 SP added to the days total.

06-Sep443594633636.14

And the chart for the table above.

Excluding the 2nd September when there were 'issues', the number of downvotes have increased markedly and in the past 4 days, an average over over 100,000,000 SP has been used to downvote - the equivalent of around 30 100% blocktrades downvotes each day.


This past week, there have been some notable changes in voting patterns, but there is still much left to do to get everyone (unlikely?) involved in #newsteem.

In the posts last week, I provided lists of posts and users that had received little engagement on their content. Those lists have been updated below, and I've added a couple more relating to comments (replies).

Whilst the entries on the lists below by no means assures the content is of low quality and deserves less reward, the lists provide at least one angle (engagement) into the value of content.

The list below is all posts > $30 pending payout that have less than 3 comments.

The '@' has been left out of the link - you will need to add the '@' before the username

As an example of why each post/account should be researched before any action is taken, 'steemchiller' (developer of steemworld.org) does, in my opinion, deserve every cent rewarded to him and more.


And finally, a chart showing STEEM transfers (memos starting with 'https') to some of the more popular bid-bots.

Steemium and Minnowbooster aren't included as they ruin the scale but there is a decline there also.


Have a good weekend,

Asher

Seems like things are getting interesting indeed! I have also started to see some difference in my curation rewards which are somewhat offsetting the issues with my post and author rewards! #NewSteem may be in for a good run!

Gotta suck being a user with most of the followers, highest payouts without any interaction on their posts. #newsteem will get around to taking care of that sometime soon. :)

I suspect they don’t care in the slightest - a change in weekly payout could spark a change though 🙃

I flagged one shitposter that had 40$ rewards on the trending page, he had only one splinterlands screenshot on his post, he retaliated with 3 downvotes on my posts. There are people who will never understand #newsteem
I mean, what is this? https://steemit.com/spt/@e-r-k-a-n/love-it

That bidbot graph sure is declining fast... And the number of downvotes keeps increasing, not sure how things will turn out, Smartsteem has changed their ways into a more manual curation effort, I'm sure that the others can change their ways too into a manual curation effort and if they keep the bidbot on at least change it so that people pay for the promotion instead of being paid to promote themselves...

I'll check that list, one ting you should add to that list the account's SP, I wouldn't want to mess with big SP hodlers, minnows can fight among themselves, dolphins among themselves and whales among themselves.

Seems a bit ironic that steemcleaners should be on that list. 😂

And, I agree, steemchiller should not be on it. It would be a shame if people started downvoting him I think.

was it you who posted about following a downvote trail. Maybe it was holger80? I need to do that I think.

hmm, talk about pilfering / bot upvotes. need more info before i start down voting sbi upvotes, including my own. it annoys me when it puts me at top of comment sections and it;s easier to do that now.

had good intentions when i bought them, 50% for me 50% for others :)

I think you shouldn't worry about it - The lego man always makes me smile.

Or, you could always do, you know, this thing called a Post?

Thanks for your curation work though, that has to be twice the fun now with the new rewards model :)

I could easily mistake the Steem transfer to bid bots graph for that of my crypto portfolio these days, nevertheless initial signs look good.

I am enjoying #newsteem though and this being curated by a retired bid-bot thing reminds me of 24 months ago where large accounts would drop a fat one and make someone very happy.

Pretty much. I collate it from @arcange's @steemsql which is a SQL DB and then play around with it in Excel for the results.

If there is something you'd like to see (excluding vote values and a few other things) let me know and i'll see if I can work them in.
