RE: On Voting Bots
If I compare @crokkon's analysis today with the price charts I'm seeing a 3 month low in price at peak bid-bot usage. Unless you are willing to support your claim with data, sorry, I disagree.
See my post today for a novel way to order Trending/Interesting, equally gameable as it is at present. Got any ideas? We could try and model the results.
I don't understand what this has to do with what I said? When I say "the price would go up" I mean the price of votes, not of Steem. (Also you're going to see peaks in bot usage at Steem price dips because of the way the feed price works. When people know the feed price is going to fall, smart ones stop buying bot votes.)
My idea - which I am totally not willing to do the work for so I'm just bullshitting here - is that there should be a Curie-style curation community for which every active post is eligible, and their output should be the front page.
I don't think anything automatic will ever be satisfactory.
Sorry, that wasn't clear. And you can buy votes with SBD or STEEM.
The rounds are pretty full, and have been for 5/6 months now.
As per the comment on my post, a lot of @curie voted posts used to hit trending - some call it 'the good old days' :)
