RE: [Steemit Etiquette] Using 95+ Bot Accounts to Upvote your own Content. Fair Game or Not Cool?

in #steemit • 9 years ago (edited)

Yeah, it's a real problem. Think it'll play itself out? Take a lot of votes and the bot accounts usually don't have any real power behind them.

    Thanks for the comment! Bot accounts will not affect the payout directly, but they will do so indirectly via:

    1. More visibility by ranking you higher in the Hot category (see second image in article)
    2. Bait Dolphins and Whales to vote for you, because they assume high Minnow support

    Both of these lead to a higher average payout.
