Steemit.com: Blogging is the new Mining

[seedtrue]

My quote also claims the developers gave poor mining instructions.

For me, this was the greatest part of the launch. It was not some easy clone that I could just click the mouse a few times and instamine the fuck out of it. It was like a puzzle. After I figured out the mining, I tried to help others get started, but even with detailed step-by-step guide, most could not get going. Hindsight, I wish I had rented tons more servers, and kept them running until the end. But, like you said:

First, being used to so many launch shenanigans from other coins, I, like most other miners, am quick to throw around the word "scam".

On the first day(after re-launch) I was pretty sure it was a quick scam. I should have known better after digging through the code, but in the cesspool that is the ALT ANN section of BitcoinTalk, you can never be too careful.

I came across the following article which says there is a minimum vote weight for payouts.

https://steemit.com/steemit/@teatree/curation-payout-on-steemit-now-has-a-minimum-vote-weight

Is this true, and how does it work - the links in the article don't really give much information. Do you need 50 million vests per vote, or 50 million in total from all the votes?

Anyone have any idea?

I don't think that the 50M are about vests, most probable to be something like "vote_shares"

If you scroll down a bit here https://steemd.com/steemit/@teatree/curation-payout-on-steemit-now-has-a-minimum-vote-weight you will find your post with your vote having a "weight" of 52 billion "vote_shares"

The effect of this is that low-SP users can't reduce their vote weight from the default, but even minimum-balance accounts can still vote with the default weight. The change was made because some attacker was using cheap accounts with low-weight votes to spam the blockchain. That is now prevented.

In effect nothing changed for new singups. Their vote is the same. The change only affects "hackers" who were splitting the small vote in parts.

Correct. It isn't even something you could ever do via the web GUI. Only with CLI/API. Normal users are not affected at all by this change.

It didn't let me vote with my newly mined account until I had mined a couple more blocks and had 3 SP. It was a hassle figuring out how to give my newly created account a posting key.
BTW, love the other aspect of the hardfork. I'm mining a lot more blocks now.

WTB Vested accounts. 30M+ Vests. Serious inquiries only.

I guess the price would be no more than 10BTC

I am looking to buy not sell.

I was speculating.

I think Steem will move UP hardly on poloniex today....
Look on 1day MACD, today should be the moon

Wonder how you managed to draw MACD on Poloniex daily chart 

But even at Bittrex daily there's no definite MACD signal to buy yet, should wait another couple of days

Has been the emergence of such information, but I did not get any mining incentives, this is how it happened?

[Yusuke26]

I have a beginner (or idiot?) question, does Steem store articles in their blockchain or in an SQL database?

Anyone has high SSD/HDD load on steem mining, using linux server 16.04 on vmware with 6GB ram and SSD, and to start steem need 30min with SSD 100% usage, also while mining sometimes SSD usage goes 100%?
