Lowest Minimum Bid Out There!
In order to be competitive, considering the amount currently delegated to @Bid.Bot, the minimum bid has been lowered to 2 STEEM / SBD.
You can now participate to positive and negative bids with only 2 STEEM / SBD, making the bot potentially profitable.
While profitability is not the main mission of the @Bid.Bot initiative, we wish to be competitive and to receive enough bids to pay back our awesome delegators.
The minimum bids will be increased according to the increase of the delegated Steem Power.
Revised Max and Min Caps
In order to make the @Bid.Bot more accessible and balanced the max amount you can send for an upvote has been lowered to 50 STEEM / SBD.
The maximum amount for flags remains 25 STEEM / SBD.
We hope this revision will make the @Bid.Bot bids more accessible and balanced across upvotes and flags.
More enhancements to prevent abuses
The minimum time of creation of a post must be exactly 2 hours.
The maximum time from the date of creation has been lowered from 6 days to 3 days.
Such change has been implemented to avoid last-minute upvotes on posts that are very near to the payout limit.
New SteemStem BlackList
@Bid.Bot implements the most complete blacklist out there, supported by Steemit Inc. https://github.com/steemit/redeemer-irredeemables.
Thanks to help of @justtryme90 the SteemStem blacklist has been added in the custom @Bid.Bot blacklist.
38K SP and Growing!
In just one day after the @Bid.Bot release we have been able to double up the delegated Steem Power, reaching 38,000 STEEM POWER.
The current vote of @Bid.Bot at 100% voting power is $5.72.
Future Plans
@Bid.Bot aims to provide solutions to the currently broken promotional system on Steem. While we don't aim to fix all the possible issues at once, we wish to keep developing this system with interesting functionalities, specifically implemented to prevent abuses and overvalued posts.
Plagiarism Checker API - Fallback to Manual Verification
Our team at @Bid.Bot is working hard to implement a plagiarism checker API meant to spot cases of plagiarised contents and move such bids in quarantine status.
In order to review bids in quarantine status there will be a fallback to manual verification.
@Bid.Bot believes no automated tool can fully prevent abuses. This is where human beings will be helpful.
We wish to release the plagiarism checker API within the next 2 weeks .
@Bid.Bot is willing to Open Source if enough delegation will guarantee our product is not going to be lost.
Join our Team!
We are looking for Steem users with high reputation (min 60) willing to help @Bid.Bot in manually reviewing bids in quarantine status.
It is important to notice only highly trusted community members will be able to review posts in quarantine status. The privacy of our users matters a lot for us. Those who will be skilled enough and show positive and good will to help in the manual reviews, will be required to sign an NDA .
@Bid.Bot will offer Bid.Bot credits in exchange for your service. You can use the Bid.Bot credits to boost quality posts!

Support & Earn by Delegating
Supporting the @Bid.Bot is not only helping safeguard the reward pool, but is also an attractive opportunity to do so while monetizing your stake on the blockchain.
In addition to 95% of shares paid out to delegators in liquid STEEM/SBD, you will be able to accumulate Bid.bot Credits reserved for you to use in bidding on upvotes.
Earn Shares + Bid.Bot Credits!
For every transfer of liquid rewards to your Steem account (according to your delegation value), an additional 10% will be generated and reserved for you in the form of Bid.bot Credits. This will allow you to continue using some of your delegated SP as though it is still controlled by you to upvote quality content you deem worthy.

You are full of surprises. You said today that you will decrease the bids to 3 STEEM/SBD and now it is only 2. You make it too easy for people. Anyway, will you update your HOW TO post?
Edit: How will you handle different languages?
We wish to make the bot more competitive while the amount delegated to us is still little compared to other bots. As stated in the announcement it will increase again proportionally.
Sure the ToS will be updated on a constant basis using the comments. A disclaimer has also been added to the top.
The plagiarism checker api is capable to handle more languages. We hope the team @Bid.Bot will be able to cover multiple languages. In the case a language cannot be handled, the bid in quarantine status will just be refunded.
Thanks for your feedback! :)
I would urge you to regard reputation with a grain of salt as it can be ,and often is, bought (which the rep of this brand new @bid.bot account exemplifies).
I love the manual curation idea idea though. I suggested the same thing a while ago. In fact, I was thinking about offering it as a service to other bid bots, but figured the effort wouldn't yield the price I would want.
Is the bid.bot down? 15 hours and I have not heard anything.
Go here https://steemit.com/@a-a-a to get your post resteemed to over 72,000 followers.
You got a 52.26% upvote from @upme thanks to @bidbot.wallet! Send at least 3 SBD or 3 STEEM to get upvote for next round. Delegate STEEM POWER and start earning 100% daily payouts ( no commission ).
