This is a report for the top Hive earners by category for September 2021.

01.png

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.

Author rewards are one of the most know in the blockchain as a lot of users are attract for them.
@taskmaster4450 is on the top with more than 5k HIVE equivalent earned, followed by @tarazkp and @oflyhigh.

There is around 10k authors that have received rewards in August 2021. The average authors reward is 82 HIVE.

Top Curators

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

The note from the authors reward applies here as well. The numbers are aporximate.

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

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, around the 20th spot.

The DAO Payouts

Accounts that received funding from the DAO in the period.

DHF workers are paid in HBD, but an approximate conversion is made here in HIVE as well for simplicity and later comparison. The numbers are not exact but approximate.

@peakd is on the top here with 26k HIVE equivalent (17k HBD), followed by @ecency and @keychain.

Note on the special @hbdstabilizer. I have exclude this account from the here, since it is dominant on the top, with 2.5M HBD received in September 2021, but since technically its not keeping those funds it is excluded from the list. The funding for the stabilizer keeps growing last month it was 1.5M HBD.

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 September 2021.

Here it the chart.

image009.png

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 curation account @appreciator is on the top, followed by @ocdb and @blocktrades.

The curation and DHF rewards category are dominating in the top 20 HIVE earners list.

All the best

Dude, I ask myself, how do those top authors make so much?!?! I have read everything they write but I don't understand how this disparity is possible.

Do they buy votes? Buying votes was a big thing back on Steem days, is it taken into account?

They are on the top becouse they have put a ginarmous ammount of time and effort ... at least the majority of them ... always room for improvment

They write at least once a day, sometimes twice, and have been around a long time to gain the trust of certain accounts which regularly vote for them. I can't speak for all of them, but the ones I know of will also comment and reply a lot, especially on their own posts.

Ah to be curated by the top curators... I haven't been curated by appreciator for a while now. Don't remember when I was last upvoted by the top 2.

I hoped you could add some data about average and median payout for authors in comparison to top earners.

Anyway, thanks for your work!

Can we get the median earnings of authors to go with the average?

I do not think to be the top authors. Keeping motivated is a great achievement. The top earners have spent much time, energy, and money so that they deserve to be on on top hive earners.

Where is the whitepaper on how curation votes are paid? I remembered something about a split of earnings with the poster and the curator, and a window of 30 minutes. I just don't know where to find that raw data ... you know, where is the manual on the basics?

Its 50-50, and after the last hardfork there is a big window of one day, so you dont need to rush for better CR. Every vote in the first day pays the same.
