There is still a lot of confusion about how rewards are generated in Steemit, so I decided to add a special section to steem.supply, in which not only I explain - to the best of my knowledge - how things work, but also give a few interactive tools for you to test this.
As you can see from the screenshot above, you can see how much SBD, Steem Power and USD you get for a hypothetical post with $10 rewards displayed in Steemit (or 10 STU, as I call them).
You can then slide the values of SBD and STEEM and see which parts of your rewards are changing and how much. If you want to restore the values to the actual market prices, just hit that button below the table, and they will reset.
Also, there is a moderately long piece of theoretical text, based loosely on this post.
As always, looking forward to your feedback, criticism and suggestions.
