Delegating Steem Power is a hot topic at the moment on Steemit. Everyone wants to have more power, and those with Power seem happy to share it. From leasing and renting Delegation to winning it, there are many ways you can get your hands on extra delegated steem power to boost your account.

One of the best ways to get it is to win it. And one such contest that offers Delegate Power as a prize is MSP MakeaMinnow Contest. In this contest you can win up to 10k in Power. Awesome.

12 days ago MSP MakeaMinnow Contest announced #3 winners – You can read the full post here

but to sum up, @wandrnrose7 won 10k SP, @inquiringtimes and @goldenarms both won 1K SP.

So how is this Delegated Steem Power being put to work?

Well for those of you that are very new to Steemit, the more power you have, the more your vote is worth to an author. It also plays a roles when it comes to earning curation rewards.

Let’s have a look at the data and see how they are using their new found power. To carry out this analysis I can connected Power BI to @arcange's steemsql. I have also used Steemnow to calculate the pre and post vote worth. I have taken the 10 days before delegation as pre delegation and the 10 days after as post delegation.

In fairness, each of these steemains were active voters before the delegation, however @wandrnrose7 was voting 62 times a day. 2.5 times that of @inquiringtimes. This ratio does not change much from post to pre with @wandrnrose7 killing it with 1041 votes since receiving all that power.

There was a 10% increase in the number of votes made post delegation for the same period of time. That is awesome. But what is even better is the 340% increase in the payout value. This went from $37 in a 10 day period to $164.

The number of unique authors, to my surprise, reduced after delegation!

What also stands out from these two visualizations is the average % weight use in voting. Only @wandrnrose7 has reduced the weight per vote by a material amount.
