Interesting project, artopium! The information is very clear! This is a good way to choose whose people are we going to help, to support. Regrettably, bid bots are opening a door to very poor content, which is receiving lots of feedback and rewards... It's a shame...

Please, let us know when it would be launched! If you have any update, let us know. I want to support you with this ;)

<i>"Bid bots have created an imbalance in the Steemit ecosystem by providing a way for spammers to upvote scraped/copied content. Bid bots also allow whales to upvote their own content to the extent that it appears in the Trending category without any outside influence. Although an exchange program is not an effective end to these practices, it does open the door to an alternative means of promotion, one that might eventually replace bid bots, if it does prove to be effective."</i> <b>priceless.</b>

Even when it's obvious what you think about bid bots, can you name a positive aspect of it?

Thank you for this comment @maerod. As usual you are very encouraging! Obviously I have used minnowbooster to upvote this post just for promotions sake. But I have to admit that I'm not sure that it's very effective to use bid bots. I think I would rather spend time making upvote exchanges with worthy content creators than timing a bid with a bot so I don't lose half my SBD and just so I can get in the hot category for a couple of hours. 

Wish me luck. Next step is setting up the witness node. Not a small feat.

Not at all! But I know it would be a big step for you to make, and I'm sure you're going to succeed by creating something huge! Keep working bro, and keep us updated on what you're about to develope :)

I'm so on this. I just discovered utopian.io. I mean, I knew about them already, but I didn't know that this is exactly the kind of thing they support. So my next step is making this into a utopian.io open-source contribution.
