Dr. TLK _ My Journey on Steemit _ The "Genius" Steem Bot Tracker by @yabapmatt
Hey everyone,
Have you heard of The "Genius" Steem Bot Tracker that was developed by @yabapmatt? (It is not called genius, I added that and you will see why soon)
Source
Have you used it?
If No, then you may want to check it out. No! Let me rephrase that sentence.... If No, then GO CHECK it out NOW!
Why, You ask?
Here is why...
What does The "Genius" Steem Bot Tracker do?
It simply tracks other Upvoting bots and give information of their voting value, weight, time...etc. There are 3 categories of upvoting bots so far
1- Pay for upvote bots, namely: @minnowbooster and @randowhale
2- Bid for upvote bots, such as: @buildawhale, @bellyrub and @booster
3- Other upvote bots, such as: @originalworks, @followforupvotes and @treeplanter.
Why do I call it The "Genius" Steem Bot Tracker?
So far we had many interesting and beneficial tools developed by many steemians which made our life nice and easy, among which the upvote bots are. So why do I think this little new bot tracker that was developed by @yabapmatt is a "Genius" idea?
Simply because this bot shows us the following
1- Paying bots are not always profitable.
Check out @randowhale's vote value per 1$. It is basically giving you the 25% that it will take from you after curation rewards. Except that @randowhale will benefit from the vote because the 25% curation reward is from the total reward pool.
CONCLUSION:
If you want to pay for upvote, then use @minnowbooster
2- Bid bots are not always profitable.
BECAUSE some people are either too GREEDY, EVIL, STUPID or they HAVEN'T SEEN/USED this bot tracker yet.
Here is the screen shot of bid bots I just took to write this post:
Notice that...
Most of the max profit bids are ZERO
At least 2 of the bots ( @bellyrub and @pushup) have total bids that exceed their voting value!
When you check the details next to these bots you will see that everyone in this bid period has lost money, especially the highest bidders.
Now if we suppose that these bidders were
Not GREEDY: They didn't want to hog all the profit to themselves and prevent others from benefiting
Not EVIL: They did't care if they lose their money as long as everyone else lose their money too.
Not STUPID: They thought that putting larger bid will take money from others and give it to them (Kinda greedy here too)
Then they HAVEN'T SEEN/USED this bot tracker. Because if they did,
They will know that the bids are exceeding the voting value of the bots and that they are losing their money.
They could bid in a different bidding period in order to win and let other people win.
They would have made an informed and a profitable decision (Considering they are smart, nice and not greedy people)
~Now, do you see why this bot is a Genius idea...~

Thanks for the great post @theleapingkoala! Really glad the bot tracker has been so helpful to the community!
Thank you for making this great bot @yabapmatt.
Keep up the great work :)
@yabapmatt has indeed done a good service to the community. He has confirmed what I learned weeks ago, that the bid bots are a waste of SBD unless one is very lucky. Bid bots can look like great value 10 minutes before they pay out. Turns out, the one time I tried one several other people were bidding at the same time I was. I probably got back less than half my bid.
The best three upvote bots are @minnowbooster, @minnowbooster, and @minnowbooster. Oh, and @originalworks.
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
I very much agree with you on the best three upvote bots available.
Not that I can say no to you! Trust me, I am a doctor too ;D
