Profit:

Every 12 hours @tipU checks its SBD balance and compare it to the sum of all deposits. If the difference is positive, 50% of the profit goes to Steem Power buy fund, the second half is given to the users - proportionally to their deposit.
The profit will come from:

• upvotes of the @tipU comments
• upvotes of the @tipU posts
• donations

@tipU will be posting about:

• service updates (no daily generic report spam! just valuable content)
• guides about programming your own bots on steem / cryptocurrency exchanges
• guides about using cryptocurrencies
• usefull tools on steem platform - overall lots of tutorials and handy stuff

Communication with @tipU:

You can communicate with @tipU by entering your steemit Wallet and sending any amount of SBD to @tipU with the commands written in memo. Every SBD amount sent that is greater than 0.001 (minimal transfer amount) will be also added to deposit. @tipU will send 0.001 SBD back with required information in the memo. List of available commands:

• deposit - you can use empty memo or type in deposit in the memo - both will work as making deposit
• balance - sends back your actual deposit balance
• withdraw - withdraw all your funds from your deposit. It can also look like this:
  • withdraw all - works the same as withdraw
  • withjdraw X.XXX - where X.XXX is a number of the SBD you want to withdraw.

  • For example withdraw 1.25 will withdraw 1.25 SBD

• tip X.XXX - sets the default amount of tip when you use tip! in the comment. All your tips are by default 0.1 SBD but you can change this using this command.

  • For example: tip 0.5 will make your tip! send 0.5 SBD every time. Of course you can still use tip! 0.2 in the comment to send 0.2 SBD tip (or any other value)

• link URL TITLE - sets your link when you use tip! link in the comments

  • For example: link https://www.steemit.com/@tipu Check out my blog! - will feature link to your blog in the @tipU comment. Use tip! link in the comments to use this feature

• donate - is treated by @tipU as an income - instead of increasing your balance, it will be divided betwen Steem Power fund and all users - so part of it will go back yo you :)
