can any body give me an estimate of the amount harvested? its weird because when i had like 100k-200k i only ever harvested 2 xem. now my balance is low around 10k-20k i checked my harvested it shows one hit with 16xem! is it completely random? or some formula using importance, balance and everything?
its also weird that all along i was thinking my delegated harvesting was not working properly because i keep getting nis error 306 or something. and it doesnt show "stop delegated harvesting" so i assumed i wasnt harvesting at all. and now i saw 16xem harvested?
can anyone pls enlighten me? thanks.
The probability to harvest a block depends on your vested balance and the importance(#transactions) of your harvesting account in the network.
Vested balance increases or decreases in time at a rate of 1/10 of the difference between balance and vested balance per day.
So if your balance decreases because of an outgoing transaction, your vested balance will remain higher than your real balance.
This means the probability to harvest a block will also remain higher, compared to your real balance.
Once you harvest a block, your harvesting fee completely depends on the fees of the transactions in that block. And those are completely dependent on all NEM users.
So, harvesting predictions are really very difficult to make because there are too many unknown elements.
Hope this helps to understand
