Burned tokens, rewards, and inflation summary August 6, 2022 - Estimated beneficiary burn since May 29: 49,365 STEEM
Steemit launched the #burnsteem25 initiative on May 22, and the corresponding rewards started being delivered to @null on May 29. Here is the next weekly update with PowerBI charts to visualize the burned token-related statistics since that date.
Slide 1: Burn amounts in beneficiary rewards and transfers to @null.
This week's highest day fell yesterday, August 5, when 587 SP were burned by @null beneficiary settings. This was the fourth highest day overall. Today's total is 444 SP, with about 7 hours left in the day. Roughly 6,800 SP were burned throughout the week.
Top-left: This image shows the number of VESTS along with the estimated numbers of SP and ( SP + STEEM ) beneficiary rewards that have been burned since May 29. This is where the headline number comes from.
Top-right: This shows the VESTS and the estimated SP beneficiary rewards burned per month.
Middle: This shows the daily VESTS and the estimated SP beneficiary rewards that have been burned.
In all three of the above charts, VESTS are shown against the left axis, SP and STEEM are shown against the right.
Bottom: SBD transfers to @null. As readers are likely aware, SBD transfers to @null can get a post added to the /promoted page.
Slide 2: Rewards summary
Curator rewards use the scale on the right, author and beneficiary rewards use the scale on the left. Thus, curation rewards appear to be scaled down relative to author & beneficiary rewards. Beneficiary rewards for @null in this chart (red) have been adjusted in order to account for both SP and liquid rewards.
With a barely discernable bump, we can see that SBD printing resumed for a couple of days from August 1 through August 3, but then dropped back to zero. If STEEM prices stay above $0.252, it looks like SBDs are set to start printing again later today, in about 6 or 7 hours.
Slide 3: STEEM & SBD Supply as well as vested (i.e. staked or "powered up") STEEM
Noteworthy: As a result of STEEM's rising price, the virtual supply switched to deflationary on August 1 and August 2, but switched back to inflationary on August 3. This can be seen in the top-right visualization.
The top-left image provides a summary view of current and virtual STEEM supply, current SBD supply, liquid and vested STEEM, and the amount of STEEM reserved as collateral for paying off SBDs.
| Note |
|---|
Collateralized STEEM and current SBD supply actually represent the same value expressed in terms of STEEM or SBDs, respectively. They're aligned differently on the graph because they use different axes. |
The top-right graphic now contains a zoom-in on "virtual STEEM Supply" (left axis) and the ratio of liquid STEEM / virutal STEEM supply (right axis). As we learned, here, virtual STEEM supply is heavily influenced by price, so with STEEM prices down, it's not surprising to find the virtual STEEM supply increasing. The up-side of this is that it's now possible to burn more collateralized STEEM per SBD with post promotion.
The bottom-left visualization now contains the ratio of liquid STEEM / current STEEM supply (left axis) and a zoom-in on Current SBD supply (right axis)
The chart on the bottom right shows the value of SBDs in terms of STEEM, according to the blockchain conversion rate, not external markets. This is the inverse of the blockchain's: internal price (which is different from the actual feed median, for reasons that I don't currently understand).
Now, here are some more details about each of the values
| Parameter | Axis (left/right) | Meaning | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBD Supply | right | Number of SBDs in circulation | Equivalent in value to collateralized STEEM |
| Collateralized STEEM | left | Number of STEEM needed to pay off all SBD debt | Equivalent in value to SBD Supply |
| Vested STEEM | left | Number of STEEM staked as STEEMPOWER | |
| Liquid STEEM | left | Number of STEEM that's not staked or needed for SBD collateral | Calculated as (Current STEEM supply - Vested STEEM) |
| Current STEEM supply | left | Number of STEEM in circulation | |
| Virtual STEEM supply | left | Number of STEEM in existence |

Reminder
Visit the /promoted page and #burnsteem25 to support the inflation-fighters who are helping to enable decentralized regulation of Steem token supply growth.
It seems that the steem and SBD that were burned later also influenced the increase in the price of steem and SBD.
I observe, the exchange rate of steem in this one month seems to be strengthening even though it has increased by several points.
There seems to be an increase in the number of burns recently. Those who use both the club100 tag and the burnsteem25 tag should be seriously rewarded. Encouragement in this direction will take us to the next level.
The price of STEEM and SBD has had volatility, including BTC, we are used to it, however the fact of seeing this increase gives us hope
