THE TRUTH BEHIND @randowhale
03 days ago in their latest blog post they claimed that -
As of the time of posting, a 1% vote = ~$2.67 reward and 5% vote = ~$5.17 reward.
But can anyone analysis is this true that they pay between $2.67 to $5.17 in each vote it is cast or even with combination of his 02 support bot @randowhale1 and @randowhalebonus! .
So here is the analysis
I analysis there last 50 upvotes percentage from https://steemd.com/@randowhale and make a note of every vote it cast.
And today on dated 07.20.17 as per voting power , I calculate some profit and loss stats for all steemit guys.
As as per today their 1% voting cost is $.49 and 5% voting cost is only $2.46.
So as per my last 50 @randowhale castings vote analysis :-
1 . 40% of it votes are provided between 1%-2% which is max - $2.23 (Including @randowhalebonus & @randowhale1 votes)
The Profit/Loss calculation - {Profit $2.23 - (invested 2SBD & 25% Curation Bonus)} = Loss $0.52

But even through in this profits you have keep in mind that:-
- Half have to divided into steem power , so what you get is not tottaly return you as a Steem Dollar
- You provide him SBD which is represent real cash which is ready for bank out but what you is get is curation bonus added and payout waiting time included.
So please ,Please think Twice before investing in @randowhale. Please go through little research about voting power etc then you may be more beneficial from this bot.

I use randowhale more to get exposure for my posts than for a profit, not included in this analysis is the drop in post payouts throughout the week which will further reduce your potential profits.
please dont spam my chat channel. thank you
The worst problems are most human profiles being spammers and spammer-minded and this: https://steemit.com/steemit/@stimialiti/bots-and-multiple-accounts-on-steemit
Oh, thanks for sharing. It's very hard to calculate the ROI of all these bots, especially when the price and worth of Steem changes continuously. So thanks for doing the job, and that whale should stop robbing the minnows.
@whiteblood Do not send promotional links through direct message. It's really rude.
@whiteblood thank you for your post. This post is very informative. I don't get why it is hidden. I am seeing you DM'ed people on a chat channel I think, so maybe one side to why your post was downvoted. But also wondering if people are ganging up on you which is very bad and shows a dark side of steemit where if you present a certain truth, you may get this kind of action against you.
I tried using randowhale once and found exactly the same thing. Though I have to add that I have seen many posts where it goes to much higher levels.
When randowhale used to give higher level votes, it used to make much more sense as was clear profits, but after the reduction it is a gamble I think for many people.
Just such a shame to see people act like this on here when people are presenting facts, but not sure if it is more toward you mass DM'ing your link wherever that place is or they trying to hide information that you have discovered.
I wish you all the best and thank you for your post @whiteblood.
Create a great day,
