It is tested that the payout will be definitely more by simply powering up. Here is the posts I recommend you to check out - [Steemit Authors Earn 37% More Steem with 50/50 Payout!](https://steemit.com/steemit/@jerrybanfield/steemit-authors-earn-37-more-steem-with-50-50-payout) by @jerrybanfield - 24 days ago [PSA: Don't Select 100% SP Rewards!](https://steemit.com/steem/@bacchist/psa-don-t-select-100-sp-rewards) by @bacchist, - 2 months ago [Why I Do Not Choose the 100% SP Option for Payouts, But Power Up all Rewards Anyway!](https://steemit.com/steemit/@norbu/why-i-do-not-choose-the-100-sp-option-for-payouts-but-power-up-all-rewards-anyway) by @norbu - 8 months ago Rule No. 1 - Goes for 50%/50% when market price of SBD remains well above $1. >which means using the rewarded sbd to buy steem in the internal market instead of direct conversation. ![image](https://media.giphy.com/media/xUA7aUpvSdkT9i7UDC/giphy.gif)
The Question is .. Is there any changes if both of the price of steem & sbd drop?!
![image](https://scontent.fhkg4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/20158077_1931428603794108_8041527531445682658_o.jpg?oh=ae1534cebf36c1de10619b4f7f600296&oe=59C7BF8D) I would say if you are not a trader, if you don't wanna check the price of the steem and sbd always, you may consider choosing 100% powering up. At that moment, you should earn more than choose 50%/50%. This has been tested by @oflyhigh, For a post valued $100, say $75 goes to the author, it has been tested that if you choose 50%/50% at that moment, you will lose 3.8% compare to 100% Power Up. ![image](https://img.esteem.ws/iic5usnung.jpg) But no matter the price of steem goes upward or downward, I will still go for 50%/50%. The reason is I cannot control the payout value if I go for 100% powering up. I would rather consider buying steem in the internal market when the steem price goes down. Like now, as the value keep changing everyday, I would like to buy steem when there is a good deal. But that's just an investment opinion, it's all up to your own choice. Again, I reckon you should go for 100% powering up if you wanna power up straight away at that moment.
On the other hand, the steem price is so so so low now, I would say it is the best time for you to buy some steem, if you believe in steem got potential like I do! It is believed that drops in steem and sbd, basically the whole cryptocurrency market, are affected by the upcoming Segwit of Bitcoin, not to mention the details about Segwit here. But I truly believe that the price of steem will go up again, and even further further way higher than the peak ever!
I am just sharing my own opinion, these all are related to kinda investment, please make your own choice, feel free to leave your comments, coz I am probably wrong! (I've just joined steemit for a month so please correct me if you have any suggestion!) Cheers!
本來我是打算原篇也翻譯的，但真的也太巧了我昨晚打算出文的時候就看見 @oflyhigh O大也出了同樣題目的文章 - [现在该不该选择 Power Up 100% ？](https://steemit.com/cn/@oflyhigh/power-up-100#@oflyhigh/re-pakyeechan-re-oflyhigh-power-up-100-20170717t152058880z)。所以我想其實我的也沒什麼參考價值的 :P ，昨晚心血來潮出有關這題目的也是因為最近也有不少朋友在討論到底要選50%/50%還是100% Powerup 簡直總結一下，我就不再詳述了 - 於前一個月50%/50% 的收入一定比100% Powerup 的可觀的，不少文章也證實了此點，也可翻閱O大的文章。而因應最近價錢的動盪，如果目前你想立即Powerup的, 目前來說100% Powerup 的收入是比較可觀的。本人是仍然傾向選擇50%/50%的，原因是我較喜歡有選擇權能在內部市場裡看準價錢再把SBD換成STEEM，這是我個人的選擇喔，不是再勸說你們應該也選擇50%/50%的。 O大出了文其實我也不太好意思出，大家就留言多給個意見好了。歡迎留言狠評喔。說不定我是錯了一直在虧 :P
