When the Price of STEEM/SBD Falls, Payout Goes Down, When STEEM/SBD Risesm, Payout Does Not Go Back Up???

in steemit •  8 years ago 

I just checked the dates of my posts and checked the price of STEEM and SBD at the time. They were roughly the same as they are now, but because STEEM and SBD dropped in price yesterday, the payout's for my posts are almost halved.

Is this normal behavior? Or am I missing something?

yea dude, i checked mine too.

STEEM/SBD prices are actually HIGHER overall than when i posted.

and my reward was like $600+ i believe, around the time i posted, then went up to about $730.

now it's under $480...

WTF is that, what a ripoff.

Thank you for the post ^^ I am following you
