Holy shit man, we get fucked hard!!!! I read that the reward curve actually goes UP if you get to at least 20 Steem for your blog post. As a test I paid bots to get to a bit more than 50 Steem in upvotes for my post of last week. I just checked out what my pay out is on 50+ Steem upvotes: just 11.342 STEEM plus 11.342 STEEM POWER!!!!!! The curators payout is actually MORE than what I get on a 50+ Steem post!
