How to bid smart and effectively and win with @buildawhale!

If you haven't seen this tool, you should check it out. As a bot owner, it is not in my best financial interest to promote this tool, but I don't think my users have to lose for me to win. Some people have their own tools that provide this information and some don't.

@yabapmatt took this problem and knocked it out of the park. I (@themarkymark) use this tool myself and have it up in a dedicated tab.

@yabapmatt's bid tracker allows you to see when our bidding round is about to end, and how many bids are in the queue. It even goes so far to show you how much of our vote will be profitable and counts down to break even point. It even takes in account curation rewards! He really thought of everything when he built this.

The site is very easy to use and updates in real time (well every 10 seconds). All the major voting bots are featured here with their total vote value, how often they vote (what % they do for each round), current queue size, profitability line, and how long until voting. The tool isn't 100% accurate, but it is extremely close. Like uncanny close.

It also can be used as a watchdog to see if a bot is abusing their voting power outside of the bidding windows. Any bot that is voting at 100% should drop down to a little below 98%. Going below 98% by more than few tenth's of a percent means a vote is being placed outside of the window either sold or manually, or there is a technical issue (which is sometimes unavoidable).

I made a recent suggestion for a new feature which I believe will be coming soon.

One thing I don't use, but it is a great feature if you want to plug in some numbers is the voting calculator.

This allows you to see what your bid will result in with the current bids in play.

You can find the tool here. If you have any questions, @yabapmatt is fantastic and I'm sure he will help you out.

Bid safe, bid smart, and everyone can win.
