Ecency: The Free Spin Experiment | Week #1

11 months ago

Hello Hivians!

I have recently been introduced to Ecency and it has now become my default "blockchain-based social media platform" or frontend for Hive. If you are not familiar with the platform, it essentially allows you to earn points by doing the tasks you would ordinarily do on any other frontend such as PeakD or LeoFinance.

How to earn points?

Posting - 15 points
Commenting - 5 points
Reblogging - 1 point
Curating - 0.1 x vote weight
Heartbeat - 0.25 points
1,000 HP Delegation - 100 points per day
Login - 10 points
Consistent Use - 10 points
Posts in your community - 20 points per post from ecency users
Daily Spin - Random amount of points from 1 to 45

What can you do with these points?

Boost your posts - 150 points for a $1 upvote
Promote your posts - 150 points for 1 day of promotion
Gift to other users - Send 0.001 points or more to any other user

What's the point of this post?

This post is the first post in a weekly series that I am starting where I would like to track just how many Free Spins it takes to earn 150 points ($1 upvote). This post also serves as a weekly reminder to claim your free spin!

What are the results?

Well, since this is the first post in the series, we only have data from the last 7 days. As you can see below, I'm off to the slowest possible start...
