Most of the posts are about Steem itself
I'm wondering if this is just some weird bot site with very few real people on it trying to promote a new bitcoin-like currency. I'm not getting why these generic steem dollars value skyrocketing!!!!threads are getting so many upvotes.
The amount of bots scares and sickens me. Sometimes I get curious what flags them, but then I see the cheetah bot and remember they all lack the one good thing about Steemit, the human element, so go back to feeling crappy about them all. I believe the good will continue to rise to the top and know that patience pays off.
There are voting trails, which vote after another bot or human votes, there are voting bots, that just vote for the people they are programmed to vote for, and there are others trying to use AI, which take your post and rep. into account. I am sure there are others. Most are just trying to help spread the wealth, but others are trying to max. the curation rewards. At this point, I don't think it will be addressed for a while. Just forget the bots, and focus on the people. :)
Hear hear to that
