Intelligently Curated Whitelist & Blacklists

No machine or bot on the blockchain can effectively recognize content of quality that is worthy of promotion. This is why we have to rely on the efforts of human curation initiatives to ensure only genuine quality content creators are permitted to use the services offered by @Bid.Bot.

Bidding on upvotes and downvotes with @Bid.Bot is limited strictly to users with a Steem reputation equal to or higher than 65 (will be increased over time based on users behaviours), and/OR users previously upvoted by any of trusted curation initiatives listed below.

More specifically you should have received at least an upvote from any of the following curation initiatives, never a downvote or an unvote. If an unvote was casted you may still be whitelisted if a consequent upvote was casted.

In addition, several blacklists, are used as fallback to ensure @Bid.Bot is never available to those who do not have the blockchain’s best interests in mind.

Reward Pool Protection - The First Incentivized Flagging Bot

Steem bidbots and voting services are disliked by many and not without reason. No one enjoys seeing the trending page full of low-quality posts promoted for monetary gain alone, and the rampant abuse of promotional services by the greedy driving promising content creators away from the blockchain.

Numerous attempts to balance the reward pool distribution to combat the abuse have been made, but few had any impact. @Bid.Bot is the first to offer anonymity to all its users and incentivizes the moderate flagging of overvalued posts.

100% Anonymity Against Flag Revenge

Due to the unique features offered by @Bid.Bot, and in attempt to combat rampant abuse of curation reward distribution (through pre-running trails that scan bidbot wallet activities), bids sent to the @Bid.Bot are only accepted in the form of encrypted memos.

Encrypting your memo before sending upvote or downvote bids to the @Bid.Bot is easy, and instructions can be found in this guide.

While your username is still visible in the transfer, it is virtually impossible to identify the target of the flag, effectively protecting you from a flag revenge. Unencrypted memos will be rejected and sent back to your wallet.

Example of encrypted bid memo for flagging:

# flag https://steemit.com/steem/@bid.bot/howto

Why flag?

Downvotes (flags) have a very negative reputation on the blockchain and are often seen as an offensive and personal attack. This reputation stems mostly from the way downvotes are built into the Steemit frontend. Most often used to downvote spam and similar unwanted content, downvotes have another very significant role on the blockchain that remains widely unused: balancing the distribution of the reward pool by downvoting overvalued content.

Until today, Steem minnows had no way to influence the reward pool through downvotes. Without sufficient SP and with the fear of retaliation, all they could do is feel frustrated at the current state of reward distribution. @Bid.Bot is here to change that.

Moderate Flagging & @Bid.Bot Credits

“Bidding on flags? That will cost me STEEM / SBD, so why do it?”

@Bid.Bot reserves the liquid SBD/STEEM used to bid on a downvote in the form of “Bid.bot Credits”, stored through memos in your Steem wallet.

These credits can be used to bid on upvotes for quality posts.

It is important to notice that flags have lower maximum cap compared to upvotes. A bid for an upvote can be in total (summing all the bids for the post) maximum 150 STEEM / SBD, while a bid for a downvote maximum 25 STEEM / SBD. Such difference is implemented to prevent abuses of the flagging system and incentivise moderate flagging only, in addition to the reputation/whitelist + blacklists requirements.

Example of accumulated credits in your wallet via unencrypted memo (for transparency):

Credits Balance STEEM: 15.000 SBD: 25.000

Example of encrypted bid memo using accumulated Bid.Bot credits:

# from-credits 5.000 STEEM https://steemit.com/steem/@bid.bot/howto

or

# from-credits 5.000 SBD https://steemit.com/steem/@bid.bot/howto

Moderating Overvalued Posts

As mentioned above, @Bid.Bot is one of the only upvote purchasing services available to require the encryption of memos. This means anyone can check the wallets of most bidding bots and automatically identify the posts about to receive a significant upvote. By voting ahead of the bidbots, runners of such scripts are effectively abusing the curation reward distribution system. @Bid.Bot lets you do the opposite. Using the same information available in the wallets of most bots, you can mitigate crazy payouts by sending your flags via @Bid.Bot.

In addition, @Bid.Bot has a balancing system in place. If a post receives both a downvote and upvote bid for the same post via @Bid.Bot, the correct sum for upvoting or downvoting the post is calculated automatically according to the bids made.

Remember that while you cannot decipher the information in memos sent to @Bid.Bot, you can still see what posts were submitted to other bidding services on the blockchain and react against overvalued contents.

Up & Running

We, the team of professionals behind @Bid.Bot, have full faith in this project, and have powered up and delegated an initial sum of over 20,000 STEEM (purchased especially for this project) to @Bid.Bot in order to make it immediately available to users.

You can start sending your bids immediately to use this STEEM power to upvote and downvote posts on the blockchain. Find out how in this guide.

Support & Earn by Delegating

Supporting the @Bid.Bot is not only helping safeguard the reward pool, but is also an attractive opportunity to do so while monetizing your stake on the blockchain.

In addition to 95% of shares paid out to delegators in liquid STEEM/SBD, you will be able to accumulate Bid.bot Credits reserved for you to use in bidding on upvotes.

Earn Shares + Bid.Bot Credits!

For every transfer of liquid rewards to your Steem account (according to your delegation value), an additional 10% will be generated and reserved for you in the form of Bid.bot Credits. This will allow you to continue using some of your delegated SP as though it is still controlled by you to upvote quality content you deem worthy.

Delegate Now Via Steem Connect

Copy/paste the following link, change the variables as detailed below, and paste into your browser URL:

Set the sum of SP you would like to delegate.

Replace youraccount with your username.

Replace 1000 with the amount you wish to delegate.

Why this Post was promoted via other BidBots?

If there was another way to promote the @Bid.Bot initiative, we would have been more than happy to use it. Without the use of bid bots it is impossible (or likely very hard) to get enough exposure. We at @Bid.Bot hope that our services may make promotion more accessible and fair. We also hope other existing bid bots will experiment and adopt new measures against abuses and overvalued posts.

ALL INFORMATION PROVIDED FROM OR THROUGH THE USE OF @BID.BOT AND ANY OF ITS SERVICES DOES NOT CONSTITUTE INVESTMENT ADVICE OR ANY FINANCIAL RECOMMENDATION. NO FINANCIAL DECISIONS, OR ANY OTHER TYPES OF DECISIONS, SHOULD BE MADE BEFORE USERS SEEK OUT PROFESSIONAL ADVICE OR UNDERTAKE THEIR OWN DUE DILIGENCE.

Hello @bid.bot, thank you for including @sndbox in the whitelist of trustworthy initiatives! We sincerely appreciate it and are humbled to be among such precedent setting Steem-powered projects. All the best!

  • Sndbox Team

A pleasure!

I personally have just delegated 500 SP to this cause for now and not because you chose to include us on such a list. I see great value in possible encrypted flags that will allow people with the best Steem’s interest in mind to "safely" battle some of the reward pool’s oppressors. For the current Steem’s situation this is one of the best “solving projects” till this day. I salute you. Let’s see how the white/blacklists will work because that is the core building stone of the whole system.

As you have listed @steemstem as a trusted curation provider I will be increasing your power by 10K SP, from me personally. :)

@justtryme90 A M A Z I N G!

Thanks for that. On behalf of everyone in @Bid.Bot, we look forward to an awesome and long collaboration with you!

If you have any question, join us on Discord

Thanks a lot for your trust in steemstem. We really appreciate this sort of messages one in a while ;)

We @ Steemstem look forward to working with you.

Really? Actually, @steemstem is not really looking to work with me, as I (co-)run the steemstem project...

That would mean you don't work with yourself though.

Do you think I should tell people I use clones? :D

I forgot the "co"... shame on me ;)

Well I like the concept of a promotion service that is centered around quality content creators and not just random spammy nonsense. There should be a market for good content creators to put extra eyes on their work, and one that does it for a fair price. What you describe seems like this could be one such project. :)

Plus I appreciate the recognition for the hard work the @steemstem team puts in.

So, so far... win win.

SteemStem is proved to be a great initiative and for sure the initiative we trust the most! Thanks for providing the SteemStem blacklist. It is going to be integrated very very soon.

If I get this right. All the times I send SBD or STEEM to flag a post, those will be credited back to me and I can use them to boost other posts?

You got it right! :) Credited back as tokens you can use to boost QUALITY posts based on the criteria mentioned in the announcement. If you have more questions don't hesitate to contact us on Discord

Thanks! Are they created as liquid transfers of STEEM / SBD? How do you prevent abuses of the flagging system?

I wish you luck although i wont be using your service since automation of reward distribution im not a fan of. But any improvement is welcomed and should be applauded.
Few things.
Firstly, knowing that "non remarkable" content is the content that fuels the bot economy do you think you will be able to receive delegation and maintain it knowing you effectively cut off close to majority of bot customers?
Do you think the whales that already delegate to bots will care about the ideals you try to follow, or is your delegation target those that have SP but were looking for a reason that can sooth their conscience before delegating?
I fear that would lead to even higher Bot SP delegation and really wouldnt be good at all for anyone.

And also, if someone did downvote me, couldnt i just look at the downvote amount. See how much id need to pay for that, and do a price and time comparisson with Gina info and your wallet info, thus tracking down the downvoter?

But any improvement is welcomed and should be applauded.

Couldn't agree more!

Firstly, knowing that "non remarkable" content is the content that fuels the bot economy do you think you will be able to receive delegation and maintain it knowing you effectively cut off close to majority of bot customers?

Our automated whitelist counts already 20K members plus all the members who have 65 reputation or higher. Delegators at some point will have to decide between maximised rewards and short-term gains or long-term benefits and fair profits. If our bot gets adopted from the mass, delegators should gain the very same profits or more while also caring about the long-term vision.

Do you think the whales that already delegate to bots will care about the ideals you try to follow, or is your delegation target those that have SP but were looking for a reason that can sooth their conscience before delegating?

We think there must be a change and we are bringing it to the table. The current promotion system is broken and everyone can see that. Whales see it clearly. We don't aim to fix all the possible issues linked to promotion on Steem right now but we pretend to solve the worst ones. Will they get on-board? Good question. Let's see!

And also, if someone did downvote me, couldnt i just look at the downvote amount. See how much id need to pay for that, and do a price and time comparisson with Gina info and your wallet info, thus tracking down the downvoter?

Nope. Bids are merged. One vote may contain both positive bids and negative bids against the target post, making very hard to guess who triggered the downvote. There may be cases where a post is both boosted and flagged. If a flag or an upvote is triggered, it will be based on the amount of the positive and negative bids compared.

Thanks for your feedback. Come chat with us on Discord

We think there must be a change and we are bringing it to the table. The current promotion system is broken and everyone can see that.

So that is why you pushed this post to 1k with attempts to use services which you disagree with in the first place?

I find it really funny. It's like: "Case, meet point."

No post by a new user should be allowed to get a boost like that. But it is.

I don't find it funny at all as there are people who believe that they are right even they are obviously wrong.

In Hebrew we have a saying: "The owner of capital is the owner of opinion". They can afford to push their belief and spend money advertising it. I am constantly shocked by the duality on steemit: users who rejoice at every 0.10 upvote because they WORK for their content, and want RECOGNITION, and a group of stakeholders throwing around insane sums that 90% of users can't even dream of.

It's enough to read comments in here, There will always be an individual (or small group of people) who decides what is right and will use their all means to push that forward. That does not mean they are right regardless if they have fundings or not. People behind this project will realize sooner or later that this will not change anything and they will become only one of many hated bid.bots.

That's very possible. Alternatively, it will fail because stakeholders with enough SP to make it a significant contender in the (already overcrowded) market will keep investing with older and more profitable bots. This one cannot be as profitable as the competition because of VP spent on flagging. In fact, I am not even sure how it can be profitable at all, but the team behind this experiment probably has better math skills than I.

This experiment is a statement, more than anything. Which is why I am here, reading the comments and eating all the virtual popcorn. Steem is never boring and this is just the latest addition of things to discuss and argue about - a supposedly "ethical" bot. I am curious.

Now this is interesting. I like the way you are incentivizing flagging anonymously, so as to help prevent flag wars and to also take some of the reluctance out of using the flagging feature on shitposts topping trending.

So, will anybody who is not on a blacklist and meets your whitelist criteria have the autonomy to anonymously downvote ANYONE they want or will there be arbiters within your organization controlling where flags can be distributed? What if I disagree with rewards of one of the anonymous investors in this project and put an order to downvote their post, will you honor that or play favoritism?

I fear a system like this could lead to some centralization (or just less decentralization) of censorship control in the system. Obviously disagreements on rewards of posts is very subjective, I just wonder if the subjectivity is in the hands of the users or the bid.bot team.

So, will anybody who is not on a blacklist and meets your whitelist criteria have the autonomy to anonymously downvote ANYONE they want or will there be arbiters within your organization controlling where flags can be distributed?

The @Bid.Bot bot does not do censorship in any way for both positive or negative bids. The only scenario where @Bid.Bot may act is by including the sender in the custom blacklist for what we is perceived as severe abuse.

Looks very promising. Keep up the good work! I am sure that many things will be better in the next weeks :)

If you mean overvalued posts getting the flags they deserve, I assume yes! Wonderful weeks ahead! :)

Until today, Steem minnows had no way to influence the reward pool through downvotes.

Bidding on upvotes and downvotes with @Bid.Bot is limited strictly to users with a Steem reputation equal to or higher than 65,

Doesn't this in fact mean that minnows can't use the downvote service?

Loading...

65 rep or one that was previously upVoted.

That is an interesting requirement that removes a lot of people from being able to use it.

Although I know a shit poster that is at 67 rep who just did 5 posts a day with less than 50 value each so it never got to trending

Although I know a shit poster that is at 67 rep who just did 5 posts a day with less than 50 value each so it never got to trending

He will likely get into the blacklist very soon! :)

The min reputation may also be increased over time based on users behaviours.

I'm a fan of transparency but how do I find out if I'm on the Whitelist?

YES!!! GENIUS IDEA! Finally I can flag all the shit! Some light at the end of the tunnel!

thank you good post

I agree with you friend, it seems to me an excellent publication

Can you specify if you upvote for Dlive? I don't see that specified anywhere in the post or comments!

I do not know much about how rewards and curators work here at Steemit. My opinion is only based on my observation and my own experience. I recognize that I am still on the path that leads me to the key to success within this community. I am not a professional writer, I only publish everything that inspires me. But if I have noticed some post overrated whose content is not bad (I could not judge any content from another subscriber), but obviously there are equally good, interesting and original content that are not taken into account at all. I do not know if the solution is in @ Bid.Bot; Possibly yes. But for now I just wanted to leave my view of the topic on the overvaluation within steemit. Its origin I do not know, but I hope it is not a massive abuse.

Thank you for that valuable response and invitation.

unique project indeed. very excited to get this. just a quick question how do you determine the quality of the post. is it manual or automatic? thanks

Like many people, I'm not a fan of bid bots at all. But I'm curious to see how this one plays out. I like the idea of anonymous flagging as I think we need more people who are willing to do this.

Good luck with the project!

Reputation is still 25 ...hpw to increase it

I upvoted you. That should get your reputation growing. It doesn't take long to grow into the 40's... getting higher than that takes some time. My suggestion is write some good stuff and get an upvote from one of those trusted curators.

Gran post

So that leaves a bunch of people like me stuck in the middle where, hand on heart, despite the fact I do post good stuff, my path with the 'trusted curation initiatives' have never crossed, and now my rep is deemed too high for them and too low for you.

The other thing re the 'trusted curation initiatives', there are many other established ones on Steemit as well such as the Steemitworldmap. We're the first curation programme dedicated to travellers and are coming up to the 230rd daily Travel Digest. We have OCD and Curie curators on the team and manually go through every single post that is pinned to the map regardless of user rep and focus in quality content only. We try our best to keep a blacklist but there's only three of us, but fair to say we've curated lots of good content as well.

now my rep is deemed too high for them and too low for you

It is likely you will get there very soon! :)

there are many other established ones on Steemit as well such as the Steemitworldmap

The curators list is not final and we are more than happy to expand it. Get in touch on Discord for that.

Thanks for your feedback and we hope to hear more about your curation efforts soon!

Yep, I'm in the same boat as you Living. It's shit.

You?! How?! Even I got curied and steemstemmed!

Never got curied. I'm not science person or dev so I don't get those big upvotes. Unless ausbitbank upvotes my posts, they really don't make anything. It's one of the reasons I've lost faith in the platform.

Not a science person or dev either. I wrote a post about whale vomit as some delicious click-bait and tagged it as steemstem for lolz. It got steemstemmed and curied. I loled so hard...

Maybe someone was just trying to encourage your behavior.
I remember the post.
Plus you represent an audience that complements steemSTEM but it's not overly active, so any vote cast is an exposition of our values and brings back interest in the project.

:D

You got friends in high places @techslut! Maybe I should try that 🤔

Please do!

See @techslut ? Interest :D

this is great and awesome bidbot

Well is nice to understand what is going on All the times I send SBD or STEEM to flag a post.good to have them back for a better post. That for the explanation of so many things.

Hey, could someone explain how someone is deemed a shit poster? I hope to not accidently fall into that category.

Ok I feel this is a nice concept by @bid.bot

NO, this is not good. This will only make things worse, and will lead to even more problems and the eventual complete failure of this platform. Why the hell has this post been upvoted by every shit bot on steemit anyway? And why is it only exclusive to people with reps of 65 or more? Everyone seems happy to only play ping pong with the higher valued accounts and doesn't give 2 shits about anyone else. More money for the steemit 'rich'. I have another word to describe this, but will refrain from using it.

@greenbeans what is the correlation between bots and anonymity? Not every bid bot requires encrypted memos. We do :)

So, in simple that means i can send a specific bid to the bot to get my post upvoted. And if my steem influence is above 65 then i can also send a bid to flag over-rated data? But, bid sent for flagging would return to me. And that post would be anonoumusly flagged in return. That sounds cool. But, 1 thing again, what is in it for steemians having less than 65 influence. Its again giving the power to those who already have it. So, this bot simply means 'An anonymous fighter for rich people'??

There are a lot of free videos you can view on YouTube to understand steemit better, however, in a nutshell it's about writing quality content to share with others and in return your can get paid in Steem. Steemit is built on the blockchain and rewards it's users in this crypto currency for their input. Steemit is experiencing exponential growth at the moment which will in turn also mean steem will grow to new heights soon.

thank you so much i will go to you tube to check it out

Great to hear that. I have few other questions and would like to drop here for you to answer.

  • Incentivized moderate flagging by credits generation.

Fine. How would you protect your users if those enraged by your 'flagging service' decides to start downvoting all your customers. We have seen this in the past with a reputable service like Minnowbooster and user lost a lot of money in the war.

  • balancing the distribution of the reward pool by downvoting overvalued content.

This is subjective. The content that you or some of your users may feel overvalued may very well be valuable to me. How do you cater this?

  • moderate flagging

Can you explain moderate flagging? Does it mean humanly or manual flagging?

  • balancing the distribution of the reward pool by downvoting

How would you differentiate between those settling their personal agenda and those genuinely concerned about reward pool rape?

Thanks and good luck!

Promoting content is really important in Steemit, good post

Thank you . Its really helpful.

Bot will flag who downvotes you or?

Thank you . Its really helpful.

i love this content

advertisement is a valid service, but there is nothing ethical in the way it is done on steem. This is just another bidbot contributing to the downfall of the steem ecosystem and the end of honest curation which would be vital to promote steem. Accounts with much sp should take on their responsibility to curate, not sell their sp for money. But its fine since when steem is done, its the poeple with a lot of sp that will suffer.

Is there a max or min ROI for a bid?

hello I am a minnow on steemit and I wan to ask that can I get the @bid.bot upvote?

I have had a few @curie upvotes, and likely some other "trusted" upvotes too. Am I automatically on the whitelist or is there some sort of application that i need to go through?

I applaud this effort as I feel the bid-bot fuelled ponzi scheme was going to throw both steemit and steem down the tubes. If there is more effort to reward quality content (and compete in a bid-bot fuelled steemit) then there is hope for this platform yet.

I will likely delegate a small (yet huge for me) chunk of SP to support this initiative. Thanks.

According to the information in the announcement posts, there is no application for using this bot. You become whitelisted either if you have enough reputation score, or you were upvoted by one of the trusted curation initiatives. I'd say that the most straightforward way to find it out is to is to try it. They promise to refund you if you are not whitelisted.

hello you're great @bid.bot, I'm new to the steem world ... would you help me collect steemdolar?

Great initiative

Excellent publication, it is a very interesting article.

Thanks for the info, was very interesting

Do you mean only Whitelists can use your service?

No machine or bot on the blockchain can effectively recognize content of quality that is worthy of promotion.

Well, there is at least one who tries: @trufflepig

hay @bidbot What will we benefit from it? How will it be possible Whatever you have taken, it is good but does not do anything, so that people have problems. May Allah bless you. Thanks!

Ok, that was a lot to read and consider. I will check it out and give it a good test in order to share the results with the broader community.

Hello there!!!
it is awesome how blockchain thecnology it is growing up too fast.
also bid-bots are great and helpful!!!
good luck!!!
have a great day!!!

Good Information!

NOW A DAYS BIDBOT IS ONE OF THE POPULAR TOPIC AND MANY OF THEM ARGUE REGARDING BAD OR GOOD OF THIS PLATFORM .

ALSO PROMOTING CONTENT IS MOST IMPORTANT

That's an outstanding amount of naturally purchased SP.
You must be doing everything in the crypto world right!
