I do not think so, but first I'd like to say I do not like bid bots, but people are allowed to use their vote however they see fit, upvote, downvote sell vote, buy vote.
@upme for the week curation rewards - 451.024 STEEM POWER last 7 days
top five trending post a few minutes ago about 1260 STEEM.
@ haejin 623.374 STEEM POWER + 623.335 STEEM for the last 7 days
I did see, but unfortunately do not recall where or who, that had how much the bid bots remove from the reward pool, It really is not much percentage wise. So you see one person, does better than one bid bot, and the top five on trending do better than one bid bot, I know there are a lot of bid bots, but I do not think they actually remove much from the reward pool via their curation rewards.
It's rather fun sort of to see the pro/anti bid bot vote seller wars, always good for drama, but in the end really pretty meaningless. Either people have a right to use their vote as they want to or they do not. That is after all the end point to it all, do you have a right to your vote?

Bidbots take about 25% of the reward pool,

Thank you I kind of remembered a post about how much the bid bots take but I could not remember where, or how much.
