I think that botting is to some extent hateful, because it stimulates people on posting anything at all, knowing that they will make a profit from it. Honestly if you ask me bota and self upvote should be disabled, but that is how it is, so no reasson to fuss and stress over it. Hopefully the market expands and prices jump so all can enjoy. 
Cheers and much love and support from me <3 
I love your quality contents friend ^^

You can't disable bots. You can just make it a bit more difficult for the people creating them. Facebook, Instagram and other big social media websites might be at war with bots, but they remain full of automated fake accounts. Additionally, if you disabled selfvoting, you would just stimulate people to have more than one accounts so they have a way to "spend" their voting power on themselves if they wanted to. It will make it much less common, but it couldn't really eradicate it altogether.
