That's through. Especially if you aren't online each day. And/or don't want to monitor your VP all the time.
To bad it works that terrible. I thought the guy behind @smartsteem is a well known witness?

@crypto-econom1st
Smartsteem is managing over 6000 Steemians who sell their votes. All that data has to be updated constantly, without putting too much load on RPC Nodes.
Additionally, multiple transfers are handled at the same time, so it can very well be that for different posts the same voters get selected and that e.g. @edicted votes 2 or 3 times in 9 seconds. (3 blocks)
I've developed the system and I can tell you one thing:
Smartsteem is already checking before each new transfer if the votingpower is above the threshold. But in some cases, this doesn't work and votes are cast regardless (e.g. 3 times in 9 seconds).
Now, the voter gets paid for all 3 votes - so I don't see any real problem unless you're completely fixated with voting ONLY at 100%.
Thanks for your quick reply!
At least I think the topic starter will be happy with it 😀
Let me also add that other similar vote selling products have the same issue. I forgot the precise name, minnow something, but I think they are even worse. I remember that from someone that pulled of a testing experiment.
Sure thing!
I think you mean @minnowbooster and the one who did the experiment is @tcpolymath.
I remember he wrote something like
Smartsteem vote-selling is like clockwork.
As I'm not using @minnowbooster, I can't tell you how good they are, but I'm sure they're doing their best.
You're totally right!
Thanks.
Minnowbooster has the reverse problem for votes around 1c - it often won't sell them at all, and leave you sitting at 100% indefinitely. They might be worth trying for @edicted and his 10c vote, though. I haven't tested at that level but votes above 5c seem to go out pretty well most of the time based on their chart.
Btw, talking about managing 6,000 Steemonians. I am still wondering how much of the reward pool is being used by/based on upvotes from @smartsteem? That way we can determine which percentage of the total reward pool is not available for normal upvotes and which part is taken by bots.
