RE: Introducing CTP Chat
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
This will be great. I have only had a Hive/CTPtalk account for about 5 days now. So here is my question.
When I vote it shows the estimated vote value of 0.000, how/when will it show a value? Also, should we adjust the slider from 100% to something different? At 0.000, I can not see how it would make a difference.
Thanks again for starting this here in CTPTalk

Welcome aboard!
Yeah since you are starting it, it will be on zeros for a bit until you earn Hive and CTP to stake/power up them
The more you stake the more your account will get stronger and the upvote will increase.
Just keep posting, earnings from the post takes 7 days to get into your account but if you keep posting you will never notice the 7 days :)
Eventually, you will need to adjust the slider so you can balance your voting power that decreases with the activity.
For example, I don't give more than 50% to posts so I can give a nice upvote to as many people as I can. For comments, I normally just give 10% to save my voting power for the posts.
Hope this helps :)
Thanks. This process seems logical so I will follow it and see how the value changes over time.
Thanks for the question and welcome to the fun :)
Yeah when starting out, unless you have a bunch of Hive Power, it'll show your vote being low. But it grows the more you earn and stake on chain.
For now, I would vote posts, 100%, and then comments a much smaller percentage.
I'll send ya some delegation from the @jongolson account too to help you out and give your account a kick start!
That would really be great. Then once I get big and strong (LOL), I will do the same for others. :-)
Awesome :)
That's the goal for CTP....To help each other grow! If you need anything, please drop us a line!
Your voting power or value comes from how many ctp and or hive tokens you have staked, the more tokens you have staked the more your vote will be worth. If you have no tokens staked then your vote will not have a monetary value, but they still count as an upvote and when you upvote you will receive curation rewards, when you comment you will earn author rewards. Hope this helps just hang in there my votes were not of any value for about a month after I started.
Thanks this makes sense. I will keep engaging and learning along the way.
That's awesome we are here for you :-)
