Today Minnowboosters is announcing a change to our profitability formula in an effort to be able to push out more Boosts to our loyal customers.
As you know, Minnowbooster has been working on a 3x profitability model. Meaning that if you were to submit a post for a boost when Minnowbooster was at 100% voting power, you would get a return of 3x what you put in to boost the post.
In Reality, Minnowbooster is closer to our minimum VP of 57%, which returns 171%.
With so many people calling on Minnowbooster to visit their posts, in an effort to keep our Voting Power Effective, we have decided that we need to make a slight adjustment to the Voting Power per post, and will be decreasing our Profitability Metric from 3x to 2.5x at 100% power.
This change, combined with the minimum Voting Power of 57% will see a minimum return of 142.5% as opposed to the 171% you were seeing with the 3x model. If you assume maximum curation reduction of 25% your end result profitability drops from 128.25% to 106.875%.
In announcing this decision 
What this means is we can vote more and our raise limits. Users will soon start seeing Minnowbooster as a promotional tool to get into "hot" and "trending" to boost visibility; not as a money multiplier. This is a huge step in reducing spam and abuse on Steem!
With this change, along with the new "Sell your Vote" feature, allowing us to conserve Voting Power, our hope is to get Minnowbooster off of that 57% minimum Voting Power and start getting closer to the higher Voting Power profitability we would prefer to operate at. At the same time, being able to service more overall posts, while simultaneously positioning ourselves as a post promotion service.
As Spock said "The needs of the many, outweigh the needs of the few."
This change is effective immediately, so you will already be seeing the new metrics in place. We appreciate everyone for your support as we fine tune our products in order to provide the best possible experience for our users.
