In the past we have paid out curation rewards to our delegators on a weekly basis. To achieve a higher transparency and to give you the liquid HIVE even quicker we decided to change the payout interval to daily last week. Today we have executed this change because we also ran into a problem with the payouts themselves. They had to get solved and as a workaround we paid out the rewards of the past 2 weeks semi-manually (see last paragraph).

Calculation details

The calculation of the delegators income has changed a little bit. We now round up everywhere we can. The minimum a delegator can earn each day is 0.001 HIVE (We are aware that this should not be the final solution. But for now we want to give back to everyone who decides to delegate to us. If we recognize any malicious intent we will decide how we want to deal with it and let you know on our blog about the next steps).

We are querying the curation rewards of the @DIYHUB account for the previous 24h by using the get_curation_reward() method of beem.Account while config.interval is set to 1:

acc = Account(acc_name, blockchain_instance=hive)
curReward = acc.get_curation_reward(days=config.interval)

With the given result we construct a SQL query we then send to hivesql.io:

SELECT delegator,
Ceiling(( 4.01 / 100 * ( vests / (SELECT Sum(sub.vests)
FROM delegations sub
WHERE sub.delegatee = 'diyhub') * 100
) ) *
1000) / 1000 AS payout
FROM delegations
WHERE delegatee = 'diyhub'

As a result we will receive a list of delegators including a precalculated payout in HIVE:

This payout value will then get transferred from Hive account@diyhub to the related delegator. Additionally to the HIVE payout we are still paying out DIY tokens on hive-engine. To make our life a bit easier we have adjusted the payout to math.ceil(amount*config.token_supply_multi) where config.token_supply_multi is currently set to 100. So if a delegator receives 0.4 HIVE at the same time 40 DIY token will get sent to their wallet.



The automation now runs in a separate screen instance and the team is instructed to tell me if a payout fails some day in case I missed the notification. If you experience any issue or if you have any question related to the payouts feel free to contact us in our discord server.

We are doing our best so that we do not need to delay the payouts anytime again.
