@rok-sivante, In my opinion, everything is an Business Aspect and Opportunity. In my opinion till now we have debates on Bidbots and that was Users are using it excluding the content aspect.
In my opinion Bidbots on Dtube can be effective because we have to understand the concept and that is, the core point of Bidbot is promotion of the posts, so Promotion is ancient way to promote our product and work so it should be there in Steem Economy.
And one more thing we have to understand and that is every aspect will going to hold the two aspects as, Every Coin Holds Two Sides, same way every aspect will going to have benefits and drawbacks.
And i think that, when it's come to the Dtube Platform then in my opinion SPAM aspect can become very less in my opinion because it's the video content and maximum people will come up with something which is theirs.
Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂
well-said.
I really haven't known much about the whole bid-bot thing, other than the general consensus is that they've been rather frowned upon.
this last week, I finally opened up my mind and gave one a shot - not in any attempts to profit, but simply to get more eyeballs on a post that had been very well-received and contained an important message I felt it'd be valuable to reach more people with.
and in the process, I learned that while some people might do it for either self-promotion or in attempts to earn more rewards, they actually come with the risk of losing money with the investment - especially if using Steem to pay, given the fluctuating Steem price and week-long window between when bids may first be made and rewards paid out. That is a factor I think alot of people that have been hating on them haven't fully considered.
Either way, they exist. And it does come down to a matter of how one uses them - like anything else, a tool can be used or abused.
Personally, I won't be using them frequently. Though every once and a while, I probably will - not for profit, and not for self-promotion, but to get out content to a wider audience that has some significant value of it that would benefit the readers...
What i think and in my opinion is, yes, some people really analyse the Steem Bot Tracker to gain the high profit margin but in my opinion no matter what profits will fluctuate according to the prices, but end of the day, Bid Bot will stay as an Promotional tool to give exposure to your work and that is because, in Steem Economy if you use Bidbots then people get benefits when they reach to the Hot page and Trending Page, and that is because most of the people spend their time on these pages, and as per my analysis, most upvotes, most development of engagements and promoted content will be found here.
So, what you've said in the end that is absolutely right means, every tool can be used or abused. Stay blessed. 🙂
