Welcome to the latest Payout Stats Report.

In this report, the Payout statistics are split by user level (from dust to legend).

There are 7 account types on Steemit and they differ depending on the level of mega vests they possess (which depends on the amount of Steem Power they hold). In this report we recognise the most popular posts by user type.

The seven user types are:

• dust (0 to 0.01 mega vests)

• newbie (.01 to .1 mega vests)

• user (.1 to 1 mega vests)

• superuser (1 to 10 mega vests)

• hero (10 to 100 mega vests)

• superhero (100 to 1000 mega vests)

• legend (greater than 1000 mega vests)

The report uses pending payout data on all posts published in the last 12 hours, although we have allowed at least 3 hours for votes to build up on every post analysed. Posts published in the last 3 hours are therefore excluded, however, they will be included in the next report (published this time tomorrow)

Under each category, I provide the following stats:

• Top 10 highest paid posts for an author
• Payout distribution for that category
• Share of total rewards from category
