Everyone's posts are automatically set to upvote as soon as it is posted.. so due to the 0.8.0 release and the 15 minute curation delay @blocktrades actually doesn't benefit as much as they would if they waited 15 minutes (as I understand it) so it's actually generous considering they[blocktrades] know that as a huge part of steemit all of their posts will trend..
Man, I would really want someone to write a well thought-out article, someone with the knowledge about wth is happening lately and what is causing this massive troll uproar. I have given up on trying to follow it on reddit as that site has become filled with shills.
The chat box at Poloniex crypto trading exchange has gone full muppet overdrive. There is actually trolls taking shifts copying and pasting the same SH!!T. I too would like to see some sorta unbiased journalist investigate this summer blockbuster. It gone all Hollywood sensationalism.

Yes. 30 minutes after the creation gives you the most benefit. But it's gradual: the earlier you vote the bigger part of your curation reward ends up with the post author - which is not bad in some cases.
You might want to do it for the benefit of the author. If you see a nice post by an unknown author and feel you want to give up your award for so that the author gets more (and also the post has a bigger chance to be noticed) - then you vote early. So it's a kind of altruistic action.
But please note that this process is not black-and-white, e.g. if you vote 15 minutes after the creation you achieve an outcome which is something between voting after 0 minutes and voting after 30 minutes. You would need to refer to the official documentation for the exact algorithm that controls the curation reward.
haha bc blocktrades voted for itself
They just make use of the Steem Power they have acquired. And with power comes both privilege and risk/responsibility.

I am still not getting this... in terms of curation reward one would be better off to wait 30min from post creation right?

pardon my ignorance but who would then be voting from minute 0 to minute 30 of creation? for which benefit?
