Great analysis. No wonder it's taken you so long to post since last time!
What I take away from those two pie charts are the small no.of votes from bid bots compared to large overall vote value in relation to the large number of steem auto votes compared to relatively small value.
So this must be case of a few wealthy players buying themselves votes via bid-bots and then the medium to small level players spreading their votes relatively thin via auto voters.
I don't think personalized auto voting is all bad, as long as you review it every few weeks!
Also aren't smartsteem and minnowbooster basically 'bid-bots' too, essentially?
.
Oh OK - I must have just misread... about the SS and MB being a subset of bots....
Still, it's not actually as botified as I thought.
Cheers!
