Hi guys, important update regarding he invest and reinvest functionality provided by @tipU.
Limiting Invest/Reinvest Option
Currentlty all invests are beining automatically resend and also investors receive whole SBD/STEEM payout even if they set auto-reinvest to 100%.
The reason for this is that @tipU uses it's own STEEM POWER to generate profit for the investors so the investors money are not locked in SP. It's working well but the problem is that @tipU SP is limited and it's been all used.
In this situation I could use investors money to buy STEEM POWER but "withdrawing" SP takes 3 months (this is how STEEM blockchain works). In case of a SBD price pump (we had that before), when everyone would want their SBD back, waiting 3 month (probably less but still) is not an option so I prefer to just limit the maximum amount of allowed investments.
Over time @tipU SP will increase and more investments will be allowed so soon or later investing/auto-reinvesting will be back :)
Base Voting Power At 80%
The lower activity on steemit trough the weekend + sharp STEEM price drop resulted in much lower demand for upvotes in few last days (not just for @tipU but all voting bots). In order to not run into situation where @tipU voting power reaches 100% (which means loosing profit) I've lowered the base voting power (the vp at which @tipU starts voting session) to 80%. With this 20% "buffer" of voting power, reaching 100% is less possible.
Spending additional 10% vp (90%->80%) means additional profits but only for yesterday's / today's payouts.
