I started to take 100% Steem Power post payouts. But I realize it's not the best option to take. The reason I did so, was because SBD is worth less than a dollar. So right now in terms of current monetary value, a 100% Powered Up post will give you a more equal value to what your rewards are.

Let me explain. The 50/50 post payout gives you an equal amount of SP/SBD based on the ratio of the value of STEEM to the assumed value of SBD at $1. If STEEM is worth $1, then a $2 author rewards gives you 1 STEEM and 1 SBD. A $5 author reward will give you 2.5 STEEM and 2.5 SBD.

If SBD is worth less than $1, it doesn't matter in the post payout, you still get 1 STEEM and 1 SBD for a $2 payout. But your 1 SBD isn't worth $1. So at the time, you get less monetary value. BUt that's only while SBD is low. The 1 SBD is still 1 SBD. And if you hold onto it, when SBD goes back up to or over $1, then you don't lose anything.

So right now, a 100% SP post payout will give you a better monetary value since SBD is worth about $0.93, giving you $2 worth of STEEM at it's current value, which is like close to 4 STEEM. A 50/50 payout will give you half in STEEM, and the other half equal to SBD at $1, even if it isn't.

But I'm going back to a 50/50 payout. SBD will return to it's $1 value I suspect in some time. Otherwise, if you think SBD will never go back to $1 or higher, ever, then you should start doing 100% Steem Power posts. It's up to you. I just realize that the current monetary valuations that split the rewards and gives me less value in terms of SBDis only because of the current value of SBD. Holding onto SBD and waiting for it to go up means nothing it lost.
