Actually, the thing with bidbots is, there is always a time when people are not buying enough votes so it averages out. These sponsor reports calculate their APR each week and you'll notice different percentages each week and that's pretty natural.

As for Super 8 Ball Club, according to the last week's payout, we are giving 9% return annually. Tipu is also sharing a portion of curation rewards so it is obvious that they'll win the race but smartsteem is different (I'm not fully aware if they also give from curation rewards or not).

The point that I want to make is, projects increase the value of blockchain and improve the ecosystem overall. On the other hand, bidbots are the reason of many current problems here.

Manual curation = Efforts = Steem will moon

Voting bots = No efforts of curation = Sideway movements or downside just like it's happening currently.

However, if someone is interested to delegate a large amount of SP to @super8ballclub, I am open to discuss the profit terms with him and maybe we could arrange a share from our curation rewards too.

One last question:

How much STEEM can be earned per week from 5000 SP delegated to super8ballclub? I saw the posts, but missed/don’t remember the timeframe for the numbers provided.
