RE: 50 STEEM bounty for explaing basic Steem stuff to @the-resistance.
How are you profiting from bid bots? Please explain your math to me, because I've tried to change 1s into 2s and it still isn't profitable at all
I bid in off-peak hours. Dawn here in Saudi. I patiently wait for the right timing. I don't profit much, because mostly I only bid cents. But I have tried my highest bid to 4steem. There are times I get less.. So it is still a gamble. The latest I bid was 2sbd and the bot gave me $3.98, minus the curation reward. It's just so little profit, but every single cent counts for me these days so I still call it a profit.
okay so you're getting 1.25 ish sbd back and less than 1 sp? seems like a huge gamble for zero profit. since most of the time you're losing, right?
I always use the bottracker, but still there are bidders who bid at the last minute. Lol! I don't bid all the time. I just used it again these past few days hoping for a small profit. But how will I profit now? Grumpycat just took all my $11 post earnings because I violate his rules which not everyone know that there's such rules. 😅
oh that's easy, just dont use bid bots and use some elbow grease to promote your posts instead. the #steemit tag works pretty great on twitter. share your posts on facebook, reddit, 4chan, etc.
bid bot owners are evil capitalists anyway. and you're just encouraging them.
I only have facebook.😆 did it work to u?
Well, I dont really care too much about this platform or building a following here. I'm just biding my time until a better platform is developed on EOS. But if you look at the fact that I've only made 227 posts (228 after this comment) compared to your 1451 posts, then I don't think I'm doing too bad with my strategy.
Haha! That's because I thank everyone who comment and appreciate my post. Even a spammer. 😆
and i have 20 message discussions with random people like you. lol. fact remains, I make a profit with every post because i dont use bid bots. ;-)
I have tutned 5 into 9 twice now from buildawhale 🤷♀️
