After HF19 a myriad of voting bots have been released. These bidbots provide financial benefit for those that invest in them and usually for the people that use them. There's a decent profit for the folks that make them, but it generally requires a fair amount of SP, follower count, and a moderate amount of technical skill to set them up. These end up being serious barriers to entry for Minnows to have their own profit making bitbot. This means that whales and people fortunate enough to learn some programming are benefitting from this, but your average minnow can't!
We don't think that's right!
@msp-bidbot
The Minnow Support Project has made a bidbot that's accessible for everyone. The account is called @msp-bidbot. Here's how it works. It's a standard bidbot script, but we have an addon script that sends money back to the people that delegate to the bot. it takes 5% daily profit of the bids and otherwise it sends the sbd it earns back to the people that invest through delegating to the bot. If you delegate 10% of the SP you'll get 10% of the SBD that's sent out.
Running your own bot is a better return, but if you can't run it or don't want to then here's a great way to take part in a collective bidbot. The bot has been seeded by a 5000 SP delegation from @aggroed.
How to use it
Just like every other Dr. Otto bidbot such as booster, discordia, lovejuice, and upgoater you simply send a transfer note with a minimum bid of 0.1 SBD with a post url you would like to upvote in the memo.
When does it payout?
Every day at midnight.
How do I delegate to it and earn rewards?

You've just become an investor in a bidbot!
We're not just a bidbot though. We're a bidbot with a social mission. We're here to spread the values of Peace, Abundance, and Liberty. Grow the platform, and train and retain minnows on the platform. We think that creating this bidbot will create abundance and investment opportunities for small accounts, and the 5% gain to @minnowsupport is a great way to support the mission

It takes a week, but you'll get your SP back.
