[ Bumper Update ] - The Future of Bumper - [ Switching Gears ]
All good things come to an end
But all ends are a start of a new beginningHey everyone. It was a blast last year to service all you people with @bumper upvote service, but unfortunately our service as it is right now slowly comes to an end.
We already informed you guys and girls before about the drop in returns as it was impossible for us to return 300% ROI with the delegations prices going up. But now with SBD being a lot lower then STEEM we can not even keep up with 230% return.
This is our problem

As you can see we simply can not keep up with the current way we distribute votes.
The future of Bumper
We are going to use this small amount of power in order to run a bidbot for small votes. We will try to rent some extra delegation in order to give us a higher vote percentage but at this moment it is unclear how much we will be renting.
Once our BidBot service starts you can follow the bids of each current round incl last round via http://bumperbids.tk
Can we still use bumper right now ?
Yes, until we have lost all our delegation you will be able to use the Bumper upvote service as you are use to. In 4 / 5 days from now we will lose the first 18000 steempower, and then it will take another 7 to 12 days for the rest to disappear. Once all our delegation is gone we will refund everyone that is still within the pre-order list.
Last word
It was a blast supporting all of you guys and if we find a way to come back we will be back. If the SBD price go's back up we might have another go at it but currently impossible to continue at these delegation prices.
We have stopped posting the daily reports already so this blog stays at top of our account for more visibility.
How we going to be back and work this out is at current times unknown. We are looking to all kind of different options and trying to pick the one that suits the best. Until then stay tuned for more info !
Well i'd just like to thank you guys for running such a great service!
hope you will come back faster
I send 0.100 sbd 10 hours ago but not receive any vote check please
@kaleem345 i already reacted on your support ticked within Discord.
But upvotes will not happen immediately due to a high demand of links
on our database. We can only upvote a finite amount of links per day
but we receive many more a day then we can upvote.
Therefor it takes several days before you receive your upvote.
If you need more help feel free to contact me on Discord.
Thanks for everything! Hope you guys come back soon :) Had sent a .500 SBD for a post 2 days back. Will I get an upvote for it or will it be refunded ? Link Below

@sajannair I hope so to buddy.
And our bot did not catched your transaction.
we have reimbursed your 0.5 SBD
Are you responsible for upvoting this comment spam?

I ask that you cease from this activity. Reports to Steemcleaners on the @epicsounds account are forthcoming.
@bumper, couldn't you take Steem instead of SBD as payment for post promotion instead?
@katysavage it would be possible to continue using STEEM
as being the dominant payment for Bumper.
but we have all our assets currently in SBD.
Converting it right now would give us a loss of around 300 STEEM.
We would have to wait until the prices are a little closer together
in order to minimize our losses.
This is one of the options i am looking into for the future
That makes sense. Thank you for getting back to me. I wish the best for you and hope the price dips enough for you to switch. :)
You neither upvoted nor refund. I had send 0.400 sbd 2 days ago https://steemit.com/life/@sampicaso/6-boss-vs-leader-leader-say-try-something-new-in-your-way
All I can say is THANK YOU for this effort, better times will come!
@ubikalo thanks for your support buddy.
We are hoping on better times ourself's also.
If we step into better times in the future we will
jump start bumper back up.
Hi guys, I haven't received the vote on this article yet https://steemit.com/life/@ottto/stories-for-the-soul-2
Although I was voted into this one, which is newer.
https://steemit.com/steemit/@ottto/coinpayments-gives-away-100-cps-coin-airdrop
I've been through it before with you in an article where you didn't vote for me and didn't return the 0.5 SBD, I hope this time if you can return my SBDs to me.
@ottto thanks for reaching out to us.
I just have reimburse your 0.5 SBD for this blog.
I saw in your wallet that you did not received a wallet memo back from our bot,
it could have be that it was down due to the nodes disconnecting all the time.
You always need to get a memo from us back then you are in the database.
You say this happened to you before ?
Can you please provide me with a link to this blog and
picture of your payment history so i can verify this ?
Then i am will be more then happy to reimburse you for this link also.
Best is to contact me via our Discord Server as
we will be faster with helping you.
Many thanks
Hay @bumper 2 days ago I send you 0.2sbd still didn't receive your upvote.
@intisar thanks for reaching out to us.
By the time i check your blog you already received
an upvote from us. Check your wallet as we will send you
a automated message back with an estimated time it takes
before you receive your upvote. Upvotes do not drop immediately after
payment due to high demand.
If you need more info you can find me
on our Discord Server
Many thanks
