Am I getting this right: https://steemit.com/politics/@donaldtrump/lets-talk-politics <- The OP of this post is getting paid 105 USD for having made that post?
105,964.78 seems more like $100k to me. I haven't looked into steem so I don't know how it works. Could someone briefly explain? Obviously he wont get 100k for a post.
Yes, his pending payout is over $100,000.
The way I understand it is, from now until July 4th there is a set amount of funds that will go out to all posters/upvoters/commenters. As that number increases (his payout was well over $140,000 days ago) the payouts are reduced. However, if more large stakeholders upvote the content, it could increase further. So he is very likely to make at least over $50,000 (my guess) by the time July 4th comes.
The payouts are split 50/50 between Steemit Dollars (pretty much 1:1 with USD) and Steam Power (vesting shares), from what I remember. Still it's a helluva deal!
