RE: Bitcoin Prediction - Why NOT to trade right now | Bitcoin Technical Analysis | Week 2, September
It's not an attack, I have nothing against you at all so don't think that.
If you pay for advertising something do you get more back than you pay for the ad in these other places? That's whats been expected on Steemit and it needs to stop.
You are still on Trending despite all these 'attacks' so your content is still being seen, or you have that perception. Before HF21 nobody looked on Trending as it was full of paid posts that few cared about.
What are you trying to achieve with buying votes? Bid-bots will no longer give you a return, so if that's the reason, then don't.
I see you have lots of followers and posts so you know how hard it is to gain traction.
I do, and it's all real with no bots. It took a long time and a lot of perseverance. Nothing in life comes easy.
You're right, I don't get money back from advertising elsewhere but neither do I with these bidbots. All I've done is put money into this steemit ecosystem and the amount of steem and value of that token continues to go down in my profile. So I'm definitely not doing this to try to game the system because that's clearly not working for me. I previously wrote long blog posts here but then I realized people rather watch a video so that's what I started doing. I see your point of view but I see this similar to Reddit promotions. If you look at trending pages on reddit you will see paid ads sprinkled in between the organic results. I think what's happening here is it's just out of control and most trending posts are paid promotions. In that case, I understand your viewpoint.
