Any post or comment below that will not be paid out, that includes your 0.01 STU posts. There's actually a pretty good Utopian Contribution that explains this, which I'll link to below. </p>\n<p>Basically, the reason for the 0.02 STU threshold is because any lower, and the authors actually stand to lose a payout. Here's what the article had to say:</p>\n<p><em>I suspect that this is related to the precision of the assets (STEEM/SBD/VESTS) as stored in the blockchain. The minimum unit of STEEM and SBD is 0.001. There are no smaller values. Let's take the example of a post with 0.02 STU and 75% thereof going to the author -> 0.015 STU. With a STEEM price of USD 0.75 and a 0% SBD print rate like now, this would make 0.005 STEEM and 0.005 SP (in VESTS) for the author. 0.005 is already not far from the minimum quantity. Now put some beneficiaries on the post, and the author payout get's even smaller. Let's further reduce the Steem price (despite we all know it's going up soon**), and the numbers get smaller as well. At some point it's not possible anymore to go lower. This may go down to a point where authors receive nothing, but curators and beneficiaries may still get something (VESTS have 6 digits precision).</em></p>\n<p>So, as you can see, though it might seem that the Dust Payout Threshold is limiting your ability to receive rewards, it's actually ensuring that you get them. In any case, you can check out services like @dustsweeper that will ensure you get these Dust Votes.</p>\n<p>Hope this helps.</p>\n<p>Source:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>Got upvotes but no payout?
