Yeah but is there some penalty for the rewards if the SP gets below certain level or is it the same?

I guess a voting power of 0 is bad, but I have seen a few people having 10% voting power and so.

I think it replenishes after 24 hours.

It does replenish but if you keep eating at it ...

I don't bother, actually. I like to upvote my friends and check the steemvoter logs to read their posts.

But if you are after the curation profits then you should be more careful with your VP. Don't misuse it :)

Whales are after profit, some people vote up content just to make money, but if others dont vote it up then they wont make optimal profits.

So eventually only the good qualiy content will get upvoted with most power. Bots or not, the free market has a very good mechanism to reward high quality stuff.

So if a person is greedy and wants to optimize his curation profit, he will either way have to upvote people who are popular.
