RE: Steem Bot Tracker - Major Update Regarding SBD Prices!
Great to see you added this feature! Just spoke about it in PALnet the other day. ;)
Have you looked into how the different bots differentiate between STEEM and SBD if they accept both? e.g. if there are two bids, one with 1 SBD and one with 1 STEEM, will they get 50% each? It would add even more to the difference. And imagine the bot using the built-in conversion rate. lol :)
Thanks @danielsaori! Currently all bots (whether using my postpromoter software or drotto) treat STEEM and SBD bids the same, so a 1 SBD bid will get the same vote as a 1 STEEM bid despite the large difference in their value.
This is something I am aware of and intend to change in the postpromoter voting bot software, however it's a somewhat involved change to display that correctly on the bot tracker website, especially because not all bots that accept STEEM use the postpromoter software so there's a lot of different situations to take into account.
What I can say is that the "max profitable bid" calculations shown in the table and in the vote calculator account for the fact that SBD and STEEM are treated equally so often the max profitable bid in SBD will show 0 when it will be a large amount for STEEM. Hopefully people will look at this and not send SBD to those bots.
