Thanks for posting. This is a good explanation of new developments with the Bots. Yes, I understand the cap, but there are some other factors that aren't being considered such as front running with bot bids. For example: Today I bid $8 on Buildawhale at the beginning of their voting round (1st person to bid) and I received a $15.198 upvote. Here is the text from Ginabot to confirm - @buildawhale has upvoted your post! ($15.198). After curation of 25% that is $11.40 or 42% profit. Of course, this is not guaranteed but buildawhale also supports their regular users by featuring many of their posts, which provides more visibility. Of course, I also use guaranteed upvotes of 150 - 210% from @Smartsteem, @minnowbooster, @qustodian, etc. I prefer consistency in voting performance. I used @Lays for quite awhile until it became inconsistent. Another service that I find valuable is @ebargains and their resteem offer at 1 SBD as their upvote usually exceeds $1 and I get a ton of additional votes and comments from the exposure they provide.
