Rewards Pool = 974,979 right now. Yesterday it was 939,433 so a 3.78% increase in 1 day.
@whatsup made a helpful comment on her post When the price goes down, Steemians get edgy and grumpy so I was able to Google and find:
Understanding The Steem Rewards Pool
I thought it was a really good post and it sucks it got 0 payout since it didn't get over the .02 payout threshold.
Right now I think we will hit 1 million in the pool in the next day or 2 and I'm guessing we might top out at 1.5 million or maybe even 2 million in the pool but it's a very rough guestimate but 50,000 times 30 is 1.5 million and maybe with the new "bonus" it will hit 2 million or perhaps even higher???
