Just like this is what i am talking about. seatrips does a writeup "This is an ARK Pool set up by @seatrips and @lepetitjan. You will receive a share of the forged blocks of the pool delegate (seatrips). How much? That depends on the voting weight of the address you use to vote seatrips".But does not mention how much will need to get paid so i send funds for vote and not get a return for i do not know what balance i need in wallet not good
1. You don't send funds to vote. Keep them in the wallet you vote from. You only need to spend 1 ark to activate your vote.
2. Reward is proportional. If you vote with a very small amount of ark, it may not be worth the transaction fee to send your reward every time. The pools normally have a minimum payout.
E.g. seatrips pays out after you reach 1 ark. So if your reward is 0.2 ark, you'll be waiting 5 times longer for payout.
Note: Seatrips has a voter with over 1 million Ark, accounting for over 80% of the weight, which means your voting weight is likely to be tiny on that pool.
When I chose my delegate, I had a look at the other voters to make sure I'd count for a decent amount of weight.
There's a few factors to consider when voting. A 90% payout sounds good, but it's worth less when a big balance is getting most of the reward.
There's nothing wrong with this, of course. It's how the system was designed. As cannabanana said in an earlier post, pick a pool that's forging, but lower down in rank.
(... and check the other voters to get an idea of your voting weight)
