Top Hive Earners By Category | Authors, Curators, Witnesses, DAO, HBD Interest | July 2023

in #hive-167922last year

We continue to monitor the top Hive earners by category. Hive has multiple methods to distribute inflation that helps its token distribution and stay decentralized. With the addition of the HBD savings interest there is now a total of six ways the inflation on Hive is distributed: authors, curators, staking, witness, DHF and HBD interest.

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
  • HBD interest
  • Cumulative rewards

Top Authors

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

Note: These are not totally accurate numbers because there is a conversion on VESTS to HIVE, for simplification. Also some of the top beneficiaries like the hbdstabilizator, reward.app and 3speak are excluded.

I have made a breakdown in the author and beneficiary rewards.
Author rewards are one of the most know in the blockchain as a lot of users are attract for them.

@erikah is on the top followed by @teamukraine and @tarazkp.

There are around 9k accounts that have received rewards in July 2023. The median payout is 15 HIVE, while the is around 87 HIVE.

Top Curators

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

@appreciator is on the top here, followed by @ocdb and @alpha.

The accounts 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 10k per month.

There seems to be a healthy competition among witness now, especially around the 20th spot.

The DHF/DAO Payouts

Accounts that received funding from the DHF/DAO in the period.

DHF workers are paid in HBD, and the numbers above are in HBD.

A total of 20 accounts received funding in July 2023.

The @valueplan is on the top here with its proposal for multiple Hive activities. Next are @dbuzz, @keychain, @peak.open, @ecency the @spkproposal, etc.

Note on the special @hbdstabilizer. I have excluded this account from the here, since it is dominant on the top, with almost 700k HBD received in the month, but since technically it’s not keeping those funds, it is excluded from the list.

Top HBD Interest Earners

Here is the chart.

The @lazy-panda is on the top here with almost 18k HBD, followed by @newsflash and @alpha.

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 February 2023.

Here is 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 @valueplan account is on the top, followed by @appreaciator @alpha and @blocktrades.
Mostly DHF and curation accounts on the top, but some HBD interest accounts as well.

All the best

P.S. Most of the Hivers want to check the author rewards so here is a longer table with the top 100.

Always interesting your data and analysis
Thanks
@tipu curate

Gracie :)

Congratulations to you all!🎉🎉🎉

It awesome to know about this and thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the great overview Dalz! I appreciate your work here.

That's interesting
I'm glad that I have now taken the bold step to invest in HBD...

Its great analysis Hive top class members

I'm happy to be in the top 100 of the highest paid authors. Always very valuable data, congratulations!

Can we get a total of the inflation for the month in hive included somewhere in these?

Shows again how little decentralized we are in reality. Probably 90% of rewards go to 10% of accounts. The rest is for all the others.

Distribution doesn't have much with decentralization to do, but better distribution sure helps it on DPOS chains. Even then, other chains only reward block producers or stakeholders.

I also want to increase my curation rewards, thus I have to stake much more HP!

Way to go!! That's what a lot of people still don't understand

Thank you for this great insight.👍
I hope that one day I will be included in this list, but I need to grow a lot before that day comes. 😃

Interesting data. I see that there is a lot of accumulation in few hands.

The top earners are whalers in the hive Blockchain

The top earners are those who have invested time, effort and fiat into Hive to help the platform grow, and are rewarded accordingly.

Thank you - useful data ! My takeaway from this is that adding in a very rough guesstimate for HBD interest, curation earnings and other ways of picking up HIVE, once you get into the top 50 you're pretty much earning enough to make a living from Hive in most parts of the world.

I'd expect that as Hive grows (in both membership and market cap, and possibly also in the actual price of HIVE), that figure will extend down the rankings so that more and more people will be able to earn a living within the ecosystem. It'd be interesting to hear from people in the top 100 how many hours they are putting in to get to those kind of figures, that way we could get an idea of the hourly rate (although appreciating that "working" within Hive is a huge amount more enjoyable than sitting in an office or behind a checkout !)
