As I predicted earlier (in private) the extractors are exponentially higher the lower in the HP you go. I now have the top 2500 HP accounts tabulated. This goes down to 4500 HP staked, into the upper reaches of Minnows. Here is the result. It is unpublished, but coming up soon.
KE > 1 means the the account have taken more rewards out than currently staked as HP.
There's a reason the bigger account are not above the line, and that's because we are invested. The smaller accounts (not all), take a lot and get a lot more exponentially than the Orca's.
The facts are no coincidence. I am hearing this topic is all over Discord and not going down very well. Turning the taps off never does.
I was talking to one such small account, and what Gabby here say maybe insightful to you.
I remember Gabby from 2018, she presented her content so well and was a member of @thesteemengine (long since defunct). We go back a long way.
She developed her skills, variety over the years. I have always been very upfront and critical to her, since I supported her early on and my expectation was very high from her. She matured well and stuck around, despite sometimes strong words from me.
I am incredibly proud of her. I wish there is more like her at hive.
So 74% of accounts holding more HP than than they earned through rewards.
Significantly more than a simple majority.
Really good to see.
there is something I noticed. You said my count is KE = 1.5. which means I have less HP than I earned? I never performed power down, but the steem SP I withdrew after the fork and exchanged it for bitcoin. Is that it?
I am unsure, it could be. I haven't looked at your account history. Just pulling the following information from the blockchain database.
I have also seen it on hivebuzz. What I find strange is that it had 1500 HP when hard fork and it doesn't reach 21K. Or could it be that it is counted double (3000)?
