RE: The never-ending discussion surrounding autovotes | Can autovoting be improved or made more fun?

in #hive4 years ago

Artificial intelligent bots are getting the most significant rewards than humans. How can we play against them? The answer relies on the equation the bidbots had solved.

If we are not able to retain good content creators publishing in the platform we'll lose a crucial part of the value of this blockchain. So, autovotes can help us to upvote great content creators and continuously motivate them to keep publishing high-quality publications. The scary part is that the big stakeholders delegate to the ex-bidbots to maximize rewards not quality.

It is well-know the ex-bidbots community is the most popular because they support medium-to-high quality publications to retain users. But, when artificial bots detect those authors, the bots will upvote 1 or 2 posts per author per day. Amazing right? you are getting autovoted by the artificial intelligent bots. Now, the ex-bidbots will not upvote to those authors because they will earn lower curation rewards. After 4-5 non-upvoted posts by the ex-bidbots, the artificial bots will stop upvoting to these authors because they are not earning rewards. Again, the ex-bidbots will upvote the publications of those authors in an endless circle. The bad part is that some authors prefer to publish a great publication after two or three shitposts to keep the artificial bots away and receive the upvotes of the ex-bidbots.

I enjoyed reading this post!

Interesting comment Sergio, I'm not really uptodate on these AI/Bid-bot voters, could you point me to some accounts that are AI/bid-bots autovoting so I can do some research?

Thanks for leaving a comment! Always better than the votes, right? :D
