RE: @tipU Investors Report 31.05.2018: Updates To Refund And Status

[cardboard]

By the way - I've tested one of the bid bots (@appreciator) and received x1.7 upvote - not that great, compared to x2 that @tipU offers.

Question to investors - do you think it's time to lower the upvote multiplier in order boost investors payouts? Seems that the latest STEEM price drop lowers the upvote for bidding bots, while @tipU stays at x2.

Yeah, appreciator has been shitty of late. I usually got at least, 2.4...tried it today, got 1.7, earlier, 1.8. What is the current rate? Still 2.1? Or the 2.0 I'm seeing there?

[cardboard]

2.0 :) but because of the STEEM price drop I'm thinking about adjusting it to be comparable with other bots.

[solcross]

Okay...thanks... Guess I have to get one in fast then. Lol

As you know @cardboard all tokens go up and down like yo-yo's. Changing the parameters could become a daily chore...no?
Finding an optimum threshold if that is even possible in such a volatile system is probably a fruitless task.

Changing to be in line with the other bots has marginal utility and being the highest paying service is tipu's USP.
I'd say stick with the current setup although on the last few attempts to use the bot. I've been unsuccessful and had to send bids to the competition.

These are some valid points, although I can already see people pissed off because today the voting session lasted something like 20 minutes and they were late :( tons of vote request at the same time. Well, @tipu needs morw STEEM POWER, cant argue with that.

I would say lower it. The services similar to this give less than 1.9 but do vary (smartmarket and minnow booster), to test just sent like 0.1 SBD as see what you get in upvotes. The rest are bid bots which give even less usually. So in terms of value tipu is far better, and would still be far better at x1.95 but I imagine it would even be better at x1.9. Demand is far greater than supply atm so I think it can be done and votes would still sell out.

[pandasquad]

1.77 (3.53 in upvotes for 2 SBD sent) is the current smartmarket rate and usually minnowbooster is very similar. So lower to 1.9 should be fine.

I agree with your idea. Thanks
