1st off check out the previous post to get caught up on details and specifics here.

We are still in Alpha phase, things may not work as expected!


@hybridbot currently has 3 working modes, promotion mode, investor support mode, and my personal favorite, payout mode.

Promotion Mode

@hybridbot's main status is in promotion mode, where it accepts bids for upvotes like any other promotional bid bot.

Anyone can send at least 0.010 SBD or STEEM for an upvote. Sending a bid of 0.050 (currently) or more will include a resteem.

Investors who delegate Steem Power will get a share of these payouts.

Please Note: The bot will not process refunds

Investor Support Mode

Sometimes no bids come in for promotional bots and the bot sits idle, when this happens @hybridbot will go into Investor Support Mode. @hybridbot will begin scanning the blockchain for a post to upvote from an investor who delegated 100 or more Steem Power to @hybridbot.

When it finds one it hasn't upvoted yet, it will give it an upvote approximately equal to or greater than the standard 100 SP price tag would have given if they self voted with it instead.

If a bid comes in before an investor's post can be found, @hybridbot changes back to promotion mode.

Payout Mode

Once a day @hybridbot enters payout mode and pays all investors based on their delegation amount. Those who were lucky enough to pick up minnowbooster delegations will receive double payouts and full benefits.

Keep an eye out for future delegation requests on minnowbooster, they may seem like a lower rate, but once you factor in bot payouts you get a much better rate!

Invest / Join

1st off accept that this is currently alpha, and things may not work as expected! Once you have done this you can move on to the next steps.


Investments under 50 Steem Power will be treated like any other bid bot investment and will receive a share of bot income daily.

Investments over 50 Steem Power, but under 100 Steem Power can earn temporary Investor Support status by using promotional mode and paying with STEEM.

Investments over 100 Steem Power will be picked up for Investor Support status. This is a perk of investing enough in @hybridbot to make a difference. Investments over 500 Steem Power can be considered for partnerships (see below).


Under 50 SP (regular payouts):
10 SP, 20 SP, 30 SP, 40 SP


50-100 (can earn extra votes by using promotion mode and paying with STEEM):


50 SP, 60 SP, 70 SP, 80 SP, 90 SP


100 Plus (Unlocks Investor Support mode):


100 SP, 150 SP, 200 SP, 250 SP, 300 SP. If you are looking to delegate more or a different amount than what is listed you can always use the delegation manager.

Partnerships

Partnership status will be available for those who wish to invest larger amounts of Steem Power into @hybridbot, partnerships will include a link in comments left behind by the bot for promotional purposes. A small graphic or logo may be considered. The 1st official partnership will be @upfundme and #upfundme. This will be a two way promotional partnership.




@hybridbot has yet to be listed on steembottracker, and will wait until we go from alpha to beta before we list.
