Its a lot of money, but I have 2400 Steem and I feel like I have VERY little influence as it is. I was delegated @dhouse 2000 STEEM for a week and it was a beautiful sentiment; but again I don't think the level of engagement increased. Perhaps I just dont have the experience in crypto land to really actualize it. Sorry I didn't add ..
Maybe it's just me ;(
Ya, I have 6k and I feel the same way lol.. that's why opposed to powering it up to upvote people a little more. I would instead use bidbots to really get the exposure, new followers and engagement. Because as you say. Delegating sp isn't as impactful as it would sometimes seem.
bid bots are a money losing game these days. I rarely use them and no point in burning SBD/STEEM if you are looking to add. Most don’t even have a cap for negative ROI..it would be smarter to just make your own
bidbot lol
Ehh well timed exposure from a new account can do good things. The other day I resteemed a post by a new user. My vote took him from 25 rep to 28, then a lot of people who follow me commented and upvoted and he ended with at least 10 more rep than he started with, and a decent payout on his post. That is not bid bots, but if the content is worthy they have the same effect. And of course if I spent money on a bid bot to upvote someone else's post, I would probably resteem it too..
I agree that bid bots are money losing now, and more about promotion like they probably should be. I think they can help new users, who are making quality content though.
I wish you a happy day and a better life
