The more sbd and steem that is traded around, the more the price of steem abd goes up, the more your upvote mattera. When bots hold several million of abd the market freezes, the price goes down, people get dissapointed faster , even lesser activity lesser trades price goes even downer, at the end the 500sbd you made is worth less than half. And you end up withdrowing at 0.50 where you could have done that with the invested in bots with 1.50.
No hate no disrespect for the system. This is just how I see it. Also I too use bots with small sends.
So you are saying that if sbd and steem are traded around the market price will go up. So that means using the bots by buying up-vote is a good thing for the value of steem and sbd.
The members who don't have money will still use their earned sbd to buy up-vote for their next post. They might get a little return from the up-vote bots and re circulating the sbd in the market at the same time. This will be win/win for the member and for the platform and the value of steem and sbd.
The members who have money will buy sbd or steem in the exchange and put it in steemit platform to buy up-votes to get their post into trending. This means they are bringing sbd or steem in the platform and circulating it by buying up-votes. Another win/win.
