March was a month with ups and downs for crypto, but overall it looks like the crypto prices ended same as they started. A crab month. It was a similar situation for HIVE as well.

^{Image background generated with Midjoureny}

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
• 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.

@taskmaster4450le is on the top, followed by @edicted and @oflyhigh.

There are around 10k accounts that have received rewards in March 2023. The median payout is 11 HIVE, while the is around 70 HIVE.

Note that the top beneficiaries account are not included in the list as the @hbdstabilizer, @reward.app, @spk.beneficiary.

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 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 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 16 accounts received funding in March 2023.

The @peak.open is on the top here followed by @ecency and the @spkproposal.

Note on the special @hbdstabilizer. I have excluded this account from the here, since it is dominant on the top, with 6M HBD received in the month, but since technically it’s not keeping those funds, it is excluded from the list.

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 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 @appreaciator account is the leader this month with the curation earnings. The curation account @ocdb are in the top as well. The curation and the DHF category are dominating in the top 20 HIVE earners list.

P.S Now that we have a significant payouts from the HBD interest, I'm thinking to include that category as well. What do you think?

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.
