I often hear people complain about bots and how ultimately they are a way of earning extra ROI for investors. Well, Steem Power holders already get rewarded just for holding steem power. Should they really be getting this extra ROI?

Maybe this should be going to content creators like most people expected when they joined steem.

Here's the good news, you actually don't need that much steem power to make bidbots unprofitable for the user and therefore the provider.

If a user buys a $55 dollar upvote, chances are they paid around $50 to the bidbot. You only need to remove $5 worth of rewards to make this whole enterprise unprofitable for user, suddenly their ROI on their bid has gone and for the bidbot, it's clients.

So... If anyone is serious about removing bidbots from the system.. you only need 1 Steem Power for every 10 they hold.
