RE: Here's why Steem's witnesses should start paying SBD interest - today
I believe SBD interest would be paid on all SBDs, regardless of whether or not they're in savings.
If I recall correctly, it used to be visible in the SBD section of the Steemit wallet. Not sure if that's been removed, or if it just disappeared because it's currently set to 0. It's also visible in steemdb.io, as "sbd_interest_rate".
That's interesting, as I was thinking only in Savings would bring interest.
I checked it today, thanks for the resource link, it is zero indeed. Unless it is greater than that and shown in the Wallet UI, it won't matter, I think, as there won't be any mass of accounts keeping SBD there, right?
Probably true for most of us. Most of the SBD is held in the proposal system and on the exchanges.
True too. I keep my SBD on HTX, as I purchase it there and currently there is no incentive to move it back to the chain. Also, I have to spend time to do withdrawal from the exchange and pay some minor fees too. Interest would change that though.
