> Removing Bidbots The argument could be made that the price of SBD and Steem are artificially high because whales are not powering down. They are simply delegating to bots, providing no support to the platform, and getting the ROI as people self-curate. Maybe the Steem ecosystem needs a correction where the price stabilizes and new whales and investors can come into the platform to play a more active role as curators and content creators, and not just sit there [collecting rent](https://steemit.com/steemit/@somethingsubtle/a-tale-of-two-steemits).

Maybe you are correct. My main point has been and will be that "code does not fix behavior with absolute accuracy". So when we arrive at the best solution, it has to be simply that... the best solution for the time being. Demonizing whales is stupid and counter productive to the dialogue we need to be having.
