well since you're already on the list Hive account@brandonfrye , i'll check it out but i came here with a request actually.

SBD is back, and the rate is different, now i used to calculte to out vs. in in a pretty simple way, which pretty easy if it was all steem , right

you give steem out , you get steem in : the difference is plus or minus

however now, i find myself having to extra-check the exchange rate on steem.supply and whatnot, its all a lot more confusing, probably even more to newcomers who are even newer than me and have never SEEN sbd , Sooooooo
(here it comes)

could you, ... or anyone you know, do a post on what this all is

is it better to power up 100% or is it better to go 50 / 50 (when it comes to absolute value that is, say you were talking usd , if i set my reward to 100% do i get more fiat-value or do i get more when i pick 50/50)

say i make a bid 1 SBD bid and it comes back, is it better at 100% powerup or is it better at 50/50

i know all that crud about "it shouldn be for this or that, but for some reason it IS because thats what this thing does, right ? i dont believe anyone here who would tell me its not part of their reason for being on here)

but its VERY confusing at the moment, if possible id even like some formulas to go with it.

You run a bot, you should know a thing or two, you run for witness, informing the populace might not be bad for your "campaign" lol, or maybe you know someone who knows, because i consider all posts before the hardfork giving any explanation about it to be totally useless at this time

so please, here is my request , my upvote will have to wait another 24 hours though, i wanna start over at 100/100 (im guessing you too :D)

thanks in advance or if you can relay it to someone who can explain it in detail that would be super-awesome :))
