One Stop Shop Bot with 20% ROI
For most bidbot users, having to check steembottracker and look for that perfect time to bid is nothing but an exhausting hassle. With @Bid.Bot, you no longer have to do any of that - @Bid.Bot does it for you. At this time, @Bid.Bot is the only bot to also offer a profitability calculation against other bid bots services.
Send your bids via @Bid.Bot and let it calculate the exact moment the other bots become profitable to proxy the bids for you!
If your bid exceeds the capacity of our @Bid.Bot, it will be automatically forwarded to other bid bots, but only when ROI is positive for you as a result.
@Bid.Bot charges no fees for this service!
With @Bid.Bot, you are guaranteed a 10% ROI on the @Bid.Bot upvote plus another 10% ROI credited as magic credits to your @Bid.Bot account, while spotting and catching profitability of other bidbots.
@Bid.Bot Credits via @Blocktrades
Unlike most bidbot services out there, @Bid.Bot uses a different approach - purchasable SBD credits.
These unique credits are virtual Steem-Backed Dollars (SBD) and each 1 credit hold the value of exactly 1 SBD. @Bid.Bot credits allow for more opportunities than just being locked to STEEM or SBD only, which is why can purchase them using any currency supported by @blocktrades.
To allow this, @Bid.Bot uses the @blocktrades API to give you access to an exchange where you can turn your BTC, BCH, LTC, ETH, XMR, SBD and others to @Bid.Bot credits.
Note that you can also purchase @Bid.Bot credits by simply sending any amount of SBD or STEEM directly to the @bid.bot Steem wallet.
@Bid.Bot Loves STEEM
Aiming for a higher STEEM value for us all, @Bid.Bot will convert all credits received into STEEM, regardless of the value of @Bid.Bot credits that will always remain 1 SBD.
Magic Credits
In addition to the regular @Bid.Bot credits, by using @Bid.Bot you can also earn Magic Credits that can be used just like regular @Bid.Bot credits. You earn these by using @Bid.Bot to upvote or flag overvalued content, delegating to @Bid.Bot, or joining our team of reviewers (more information below). Magic Credits are added to your @Bid.Bot wallet automagically according to your activity.
Welcoming Everyone (But Keeping Abusers Out!)
When initially launched, @Bid.Bot was only available to whitelisted users. We realized that this gives old and established users an advantage over newcomers and undiscovered authors on the blockchain. To remedy this, the new version of @Bid.Bot allows for everyone to place their bids for votes.
Bids by whitelisted users are accepted automatically, while bids on posts by other others will be reviewed internally by the @Bid.Bot team.
At this time, @Bid.Bot is the only bot to implement manual verification of content originality and quality before allowing for the promotion of said content. We at @Bid.Bot believe this is a critical step to making promotion on the Steem blockchain fair and beneficial to all.
To streamline the review process, @Bid.Bot allows reviewers to check the validity of the posts by implementing a Plagiarism checker via CopyLeaks API.

Ethical & Un-Abusable
Not only is @Bid.Bot the only bot to implement a built-in mechanics to detect plagiarized contents and has a manual review system, but it also implements additional layers of protection against abuse to ensure only original and quality content is promoted.
- Upvote Window: Posts can only be upvoted if their age if between 30 mins and never after 3 days.
- Blacklist fallback: Implementing the biggest combination of blacklists available (steemit, steemstem and more.)
- Does not upvote posts flagged by any of the blacklists curators
- Bids to be rejected on: Plagiarised contents, Hate or Defamation, Incorrectly tagged adult content, False Advertisement (misleading information), Illegal or Unregulated Products.
If you have doubts about your content being eligible for vote purchase, be sure to contact us on our Discord server support channel for clarification.
Flying the Flags - Untraceable & 100% Anonymous!
One of core features of @Bid.Bot was always security and anonymity for its users. The initial version of @Bid.Bot aimed to implement anonymous downvoting capabilities, but thanks to your feedback we quickly realized it was actually very easy to spot the origin of a flag purchased from @Bid.Bot.
With this new version of @Bid.Bot, the downvoting process is not only anonymous, but it is completely impossible to trace. Your Steem account name will never appear anywhere, since all funds transfers are proxied via Blocktrades and through our API.
Note that flagging is only available for whitelisted users, and no single bid can remove more than 5 SBD from a post at this time. In addition, the number of downvotes purchased will never hide the target post by never removing more than the total remaining payout of the post.
A Separate Flag-Pool
In order to make the downvoting system even more powerful and dynamic, and to ensure it does not impact the upvoting capabilities of @Bid.Bot, we’ve implemented a separate voting pool for downvotes alone. Delegators to @Bid.Bot can choose if they prefer to delegate their power to the upvoting and/or downvoting pools which can be found on @flag.bot.
Consider delegating to @flag.bot to set flags free!
Earn Daily Shares with @Bid.Bot - Delegate Now!
Delegator payouts are sent daily by @Bid.Bot in the form of liquid STEEM. These depend on the power delegated to either the upvoting pool, the flagging pool or both. In addition to the liquid delegator rewards, @Bid.Bot generates magic credits of equal value that are credited to delegators to use to upvote quality contents or downvote overvalued posts.
In addition to the traditional delegation function, you can also delegate your power on https://bidbot.me

Developers Welcome - Powerful APIs to Build Your Bid.Bot Apps

With the @Bid.Bot API, you app can doeverything @Bid.Bot can do.
- Purchase credits

...and more
Now Open Source
We believe in the community, and its benefit remains our primary goal. To give back however we can, we’ve decided to make the @Bid.Bot frontend https://bidbot.me available as an Open Source project: https://github.com/bidbot/bidbot.me

This bot could save Steemit.
This is exactly what Steemit needs. A way to reward authors consistently and easily.
Delegating to this bot will increase the value of Steem for everyone since more good authors will start using this platform, which will lead to more viewers, which will lead to more Steem purchase Volume.
Excellent Work @bid.bot Team. Steemit just might have a chance to thrive amongst the next wave of Steem competitors coming out soon.
The only change we recommend is;
When using other bots, give authors a minimum of 2% minimum ROI. (Instead of a minimum of break even).
Best luck @bid.bot. We hope this initiative takes off. If it does, we'll be able to start promoting Steemit again with earnesty as a real avenue for authors to make money from good content.
We did it!
@bid.bot how much time you require for more any idea???
Thank you so much!
Where is the 10+10% coming from? Does that mean this has lower ROI for delegators than other bots?
The 10% ROI is generated on what the Bid.Bot can handle with its own voting power + 10% magic credits which are generated internally. Bids proxied to other bidbots are either break-even or profitable. Obviously when magic credits are used, there is no liquid transfer, so those won't count as delegation shares. Cool thing is, also delegators earn magic credits on top of their liquid shares, allowing them to still access and use partially their voting power.
Also, are the rep limitations still in place? Why have a minimum rep requirement at all when rep can be bought. Seems kind of superfluous to me. Also, I saw in your earlier thread some link to a $1k+ post that made me laugh my ass off, so thanks for that.
I see that 50k SP gets around 4.14 STU, so shouldn't the max bid be a lot lower?
Rep limitation has been removed. Non whitelisted users get their bids always manually verified. This is how we assure no weird or illegal things get promoted :)
As stated in the post, if you send a bid that is higher than what @Bid.Bot can handle, the bid is proxied to other bid bots, by calculating the exact moment they become profitable :)
great post :)
What about unvoting? Or do you handle it with flags?
@espoem if we fail in verifying a post or a whitelisted user is abusing the promotional service, we will blacklist and unvote when necessary. Chances of this to happen or lowered to the minimum!

The new name, logo, site...simply fantastic. I was worried the rebrand would suck. This doesn’t suck.

You going to be one of those bots who upvote comments? I really think people getting 10 cents for every "good post" comment is kind of obscene
@viraldrome Bid.Bot can upvote comments but we review them manually to make sure they are worthy the amount and there is no abuse.
Thanks for responding

Not working properly, I have pictures but I'm getting the error message: "In order to start this campaign your post should have at least 1 images.". (https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@deathcross/on-the-brink-of-the-next-huge-collapse)
How can I have my money back?
Hey @deathcross sorry about that. You tried while we were in the middle of an update :)
If you try now it should work. If you have any issue please contact us over Discord https://discord.gg/GH5AyKZ
Yes, it works, thank you.
Another issue: System is indicating "delivering", almost 12 hours now. And then with the big lbue button I receive the message: "There is already a campaign running for this post." Can this campain be ended? Can I start other campain for the same post somehow? (Or only one campaign can be started in the "lifetime" of a post?)
How are rewards for beta testers? :)
