Thank you, Joe! I really love your videos btw! :)
I just see it a bit different, what happens to the value of the SBD, when more and more people start to use the bots. I have watched the situation around the bots over the past days and it seems, as if (especially now at the weekend) the bots are already overcrowded - which leads to a -ROI% in most cases - especially at peak times. So while until now you could easily make a profit in investing into a bot upvote, it will be harder over time to keep this model profitable for the users.
Granted that there will always be newbies who don´t understand ROI and just buy more SBD to upvote their posts and get seen, over time, also these people will realize, that it´s not worth it - which will then dump the SBD price again. So yes, it´s how the market works, but a collapse of the system is also potentially there...
Also I find it a bit troublesome, that upvote bots are nearly the only possibility for new people to get seen (without having help from a whale). I just followed a conversation on different German sites, where they discuss the misuse of the bots in several cases - so people having 8000+ bots and different accounts that vote for each other for automated random video posts and "earn" lots of money through the abuse of this system. I found it interesting, that in the english speaking community I havn´t found any mention of this bot abuse yet.
