In my previous articles "The BEAST Of LEOFinance" and "ENGAGEMENT (Initiative 10) And The AMAZING Results!", we can clearly see the true power of engagement, the willingness of great leaders who paves the way for others and the overall impact this has on the entire community. People are eager to contribute and be part of an engaging community and engagement is definitely something people have been longing for. It shows in the comment sections of hundreds of articles already, after as little as 5 days.
This time around, I want to shed some light upon the real actions of both onealfa.leo and taskmaster4450, but not only that, I will in an attempt to, as accurate as I can, show you their endavours to distribute tokens far and wide to strengthen the community. I will also show you the top 20 users in the "leaderboard" of Initiative 10 so far. As there are no engagement league for LEO in that sense, I will base these things upon the numbers of outgoing votes.
OUTGOING Votes
Outgoing votes is exactly what it sounds like. It stands for how many times someone has been voting on content. The screenshot above includes the 20 users who has received the most votes from onealfa.leo, both votes on comments and articles is included, but before looking in to that further, we need to take a look at something else. The amount of votes in total from onealfa.leo:
These stats are from Hivetasks so I don't know if they are 100% accurate or not, but as I will use these stats and base all numbers and calculations from it, we'll go with the details we can get from there.
1517 upvotes in the last 7 days. That seems fairly accurate as onealfa himself told us previously that he had reached a total of 400 upvotes in a day, and as Initiative 10 has been live for ~5 days it seems like an accurate number as onealfa has changed his approach during those 5 days, (he focus more on comments than on root level posts).
This means that a total of 285 users have been upvoted 1517 times during the last 7 days. Like I said above, these upvotes are on both comments and on articles/root level posts. That gives us an average of 5.32 upvotes per user and 216.71 upvotes per day.
1517/285 = 5.322
1517/7 = 216.714
By looking at the screenshot above once again, you can clearly see that the "top 20" users have received well-more than 5.32 votes each though, and that is most likely the result of them making the most comments. For each comment you make, you also increase your chances of being rewarded for it.
There are three reasons for the amount of upvotes I have received so far:
- My articles generates a decent amount of engagement.
- I reply to 99% of the comments on my articles.
- I engage and comment on other authors posts.
The most important part for me personally, is to respond to the comments that are being made on my own articles. I can't stand authors who never responds their audience, so I have always made sure to respond and/or upvote comments on my own articles. With initiative 10, both me and my audience who kindly consume and interact with my content is being rewarded for it, or at least have a good chance of being rewarded for it, which obviously is an amazing bonus.
This is the total amount of upvotes from taskmaster4450le.
You should clearly be able to see the trend here. You can find many of the usernames in this "top 20" list as well as in the list of users who have received upvotes from onealfa, so it's clear that engagement is being rewarded and that "initiative 10" is causing some amazing ripple effects.
Comments are rewarded. Tokens are being distributed in a way that we haven't really seen before. Tokens are being spread far and wide across the entire community with Initiative 10 and the increasing engagement.
Let's take a look at some numbers:
Taskmaster has a total of 500 upvotes these last 7 days. Those 500 upvotes have been spread amongst 196 different users. That equates to a total of 71.42 upvotes per day and an average of 2.55 upvotes per user.
500/7 = 71.428
500/196 = 2.551
The Distribution
Taskmaster4450 seems to upvote comments with a voting power of 4%, which is about 1.3 LEO. I know that taskmaster had to reduce the voting power because he drained his voting power rapidly when he upvoted comments at 10%. I noticed that he reduced it down to 5% and now recently I've seen upvotes being done with 4% voting power. Most likely due to the increasing engagement and due to the fact that he still actively curate and reward comments regularly.
onealfa.leo previously stated that he upvotes comments at different voting power. 1.66%, 6.6% and occasionally even at 66%. The values of these different votes are as follow:
- 1.66% votes are worth ~1.5 LEO.
- 6.66% votes are worth ~5.2 LEO
- 66% votes are worth ~50.5 LEO.
Recently I have started to see upvotes of different voting powers, from 0.4% up to 1.38%. I guess the reason for those upvotes are for the same reason taskmaster had to reduce his votes as well. It's due to the increasing engagement. So while you might get upvotes with less voting power than previously, it's because others should have the same chance of being rewarded. It's inevitable with this amazing distribution of tokens.
However, we also know that onealfa's votes was worth a total of ~800-900 LEO per day recently, (10x 100% votes). The amount fluctuates and has been reduced a bit, but a decent guess would be that they are worth about 750+ LEO in total nowadays. That's an insane amount of tokens he distributes on his own.
Like I mentioned in my previous articles, others have jumped on board this initiative and they follow in these great leaders footsteps. We see increasing engagement and more upvotes on comments frequently.
This is the power of engagement and manual curation. This is the power of token distribution. The results are encouragement, inspiration, stronger foundation, healthier community, and an appealing platform for outsiders.
My personal stats are as follows:
I haven't been self-voting in a long, long time until recently. By mistake, I actually upvoted one of my own comments instead of another one. I immediately deleted it, but it still shows up on Hivetasks, unfortunately. Any how, I am far from a large account so while a 100% vote of mine is worth only a fraction compared to a vote from these other users, I still contribute and support the cause. I distribute tokens as well by rewarding comments. Each single LEO token that is being distributed far and wide is a good thing, regardless of the amount.
Perhaps more importantly, I am not alone. In fact, I am in good company. More and more users are starting to reward content like I mentioned above, so even if you miss out on a decent vote from taskmaster or onealfa, a handful of votes from lesser accounts still adds up.
