Curators match bot - Waiviogit/waivio GitHub Wiki
Main task #2197
Curators match bot repeats the curators' voices with a specified coefficient (from 1% to 10 000%).
By default, the bot repeats only positive votes, but if the user specifies (ticks the check box), then downvotes are repeated with the same coefficient. In this case, the table uses the ± symbol in front of Vote ratio to indicate that negative votes are also repeated.
For each curator, min Voting Power is set (upvote / downvote mana).
If the estimated value of the vote is less than 0.01 HBD, then such a vote will not be played.

Description |
The Curators Match Bot automatically mirrors the upvotes and downvotes of selected users (curators) on both posts and comments. You simply choose which curators you want to follow, and the bot will apply a proportionate version of their voting actions from your account. For each curator, you can choose how your vote should be applied. In proportional mode, the voting ratio determines the strength of your vote in relation to the curator's. A ratio of 100% means your vote will mirror the curator's exactly, while a 200% ratio will double their vote strength on your behalf. In absolute mode, you set a fixed voting strength that will always be used, regardless of the curator's vote value. This ensures that every mirrored vote reflects your selected power consistently. In both modes, votes are capped at a maximum of 100%. You may also enable the option to repeat downvotes from selected curators if you wish to align fully with their curation behavior. Voting will continue as long as your account's voting mana remains above the threshold defined for each curator. Important: The Curators Match Bot only casts upvotes estimated to have a combined value of at least 0.01 HBD. |

It turns out that curation rewards on HIVE depend on the voting time via vote_weight.
-
First 24 hours (
early_voting_seconds) — weight is 100% -
Next 48 hours (
mid_voting_seconds) — weight is divided by 2 - Up to day 7 — weight is divided by 8
A post receives 10 HBD in total rewards.
- 50% (5 HBD) goes to curators
- 50% (5 HBD) goes to the author
Your vote_weight after division by 8 = X
Total total_vote_weight of all votes = Y
Your share of the curation reward:
(5 HBD * X) / Y
The author always receives their 5 HBD, regardless of when you voted.
If you vote after 72 hours, your vote_weight is divided by 8:
// hive_evaluator.cpp Lines 2080–2083
if( _seconds < ( dgpo.early_voting_seconds + dgpo.mid_voting_seconds ) )
vote_weight /= phase_1_factor;
else
vote_weight /= phase_2_factor;- Your weight in
total_vote_weightbecomes smaller - Your share of the curation reward decreases
- The remaining reward is redistributed among other curators
(especially those who voted earlier)
Total curation reward: 10 HBD
Early curator
vote_weight = 1000total_vote_weight = 2000
Reward:
(10 * 1000) / 2000 = 5 HBD
You (late vote)
vote_weight = 1000 / 8 = 125total_vote_weight = 2000 + 125 = 2125
Reward:
(10 * 125) / 2125 = 0.588 HBD
If you had voted early
(10 * 1000) / 3000 = 3.33 HBD
With late voting:
- Your reward decreases
- Early curators gain a relatively larger share
-
Competition With Other Posts If multiple posts are cashed out at the same time,
total_claimsincreases, and your reward share decreases. -
Different
rsharesIf posts have differentrshares(even with 100% vote weight), rewards differ due to the non-linear reward curve.
- No explicit time-based penalties
- If non-linear parameters are used (e.g.
0.5), early votes gain more weight due to marginal calculations, not time coefficients
On WAIV
curationRewardCurveParameter = 1
This is a linear function, meaning:
It does not matter when you vote — first or last curator, the curation reward will be the same.
