RE: Steemit "Proof of Brain" evolved to "Proof of Bid"
I agree - there are quite a few bots / accounts asking them to pay steem/SBD to get upvotes / reesteem....if that continues then fundamental principles of steemit (that is steemit community to decide the content quality not money/SBD or bots) as I understand will be difficult to upheld if not impossible. Worth looking at this @steemitboard ? Just thinking out loud.

I keep following steemboard, but I actually don't get much from there... I think it is really hard to be listened by the Dev team. And I don't understand why/how bidbots are allowed to thrive. (please, check other comments in this topic... We can start over some discussion from there... and maybe write some articles together). As I just replied to another comments just after yours "this is a huge problem to the Steemit platform, because the fundamental way to distribute pool rewards is called "Proof of Brain" . If you read the White and Blue paper, they actually talk about that. Steem is the ONLY "Proof of Brain" platform. Think about that. There is no way to "Mine" Steem. To mine SPs, you have to write and post. Apart from Witnesses (that earn part of the pool rewards - sice they keep the platform up and running 24/7) this is the only way to "Mine Steem". So, to conclude. BidBots a corrupting the "mining" system in here. How can the platform survive like this? "
Thanks for charing your thoughts !
