💯 on this, bitbots have their use if done right and controlled with DVs and forced to either burn or deny rewards. Definitely a good problem if trending gets dominated by advertisers buying Steem for that method.

What’s you thoughts on bringing back the old hit counter? That way promoters/influencers/adverts can attain clients without relying on vote and follower metrics alone. ie... a $1 post can have a 10k reach when promoted on other platforms like reddit, twitter, Facebook etc. but we have no analytics to show that.
