Hi team ark,
Go gentle on me as I weave my understanding bell curve

I voted for my delegate 51 hours ago.
My delegate shows a stake payout at .25 which I'm thinking it's 4x daily?
Is there a "hold" time for my ark tokens before they start staking?
Thank you.
Some delegates have a min payout. If your payout doesn't meet that minimum, you won't get it until it does.
Thanks. Where do I find a delegates minimum?
Have a read at this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ArkEcosystem/comments/7mifbe/minimum_amount_of_ark_needed_to_receive_payment/Or check this out, it's a nice summary of all delegates with their voting power, min/max payout rates, uptime and so on:
https://arkdelegates.io/Worked great with information. Found out I needed 4 ark before payout.
Another question...
The delegates proposal claims 90% payout but the actual payout for the delegate is 80%
Is this normal?
It's been a year since I voted for my delegate and I never encountered this problem. Something must be wrong with your calculations. If that would be true what you're saying, people wouldn't vote him.
This is what I got off the delegate site on the person I voted for.

I can tell you there are some dishonest and greedy delegates out there out of the bunches. I have voted almost all public delegates, some would skip payment on purpose then continue the same payment the next day, some sending payment to random empty address out of the blue and some changing/lower the payout percentage without saying anything. There are 40 to 50 people/delegates out there, it's as expected you would find some bad apple/s
