Is the steemit community ready for the arrival of cheaters? How will they deal with spam? and if new users arrive who, seeing that they do not receive support from curation projects, leave, leave the platform or start talking about how disappointing the experience can be? Will you finance projects so that the communities within steemit grow? because it is not only to attract people, you also have to strengthen what is inside, what gives magic to this platform.
I would like to contribute to the community but I do not have steem power to do something, and it would be great to support the communities or content that are emerging.

Well certainly funding a bid bot operation, even with the best intentions, is something that is likely to facilitate the cheating however you define. I would think twice about supporting this sort of thing. Just my couple pennies for you. :)
Running a bid bot delegation operation is likely to attract more of them as it presents an easy attack vector for exploitation of the reward pool.
The less discerning don't seem to acknowledge or understand this. Furthermore, bid bots diminish meaningful curation. It also means those with less SP like you don't have an equal voice. Something doesn't feel right about the whole thing tbh.
Do the ends justify the means? I think not.
