Under this flat curve, the time you vote has 0 impact on your rewards. This makes LEO curation more like a tipping economy. Your LEO POWER dictates how large of a tip you can give to a content creator and how much you will recieve back as the curator. It doesn't matter who upvoted before you or how much a post is already paying out.

So basically pretty much like how the real world works. That's how people behave on other social media platforms. They upvote what they like and don't factor in time of curation or who upvoted before them and all that nonsense. I can't tell you how much I want Hive to adopt this reward structure.
