"wheek" is the sound guinea pigs and capybaras make when they are excited about something , usually food.
Hi all @cryptounicorn420 here. Sorry it took so long for an update but things have been....hectic. I will try to be brief and will do my best to do another update in a few days.
Testing will start next week. I will test the bot on 2 accounts and if all goes smoothly , open up the bot to those on the list.
I will be creating a token (yet to be named). This is the easiest way to whitelist and scale up that I can think of. Simply put if you hold a token you can use the bot.
I also have decided to limit the calls per day to 10 to start, then up to 20 seeing how things go. Then I will think about scaling. Not sure how maybe doing giveaways of the whitelist tokens or maybe have existing users nominate someone and do a random drawing. I haven't decided that yet. The tokens will essentially function as the whitelist-makes more sense than me editing the code to add more users. I don't have any other plans for the token, but who knows...?
One thing I may need if anyone has any extra to spare -is resource credits for @tippybot . I could use a good sized delegation to get things going.
If all goes well with the test and everything the bot should soft launch next week.Yes, that's a big if! There will be a separate post on this when that happens. I will transfer the tokens to the first round of users and go from there.
The plan from there is a bit complex but basically the first order of things is to get more CCD. Those are the tokens the bot is giving away and I plan to use the voting service once this account has a rep score of 55. This will help fund the tokens that are given away in the future.
Right now I am converting about half the HBD earned from posts to purchase CCD or increase delegations. A combo of both really. I do not now how sustainable that is , but we shall see. Increasing delegations is more of a longer term thing.
Right now through HP delegations this account is earning around 30 CCD tokens a day. My main account. will fund the first month's token/whatever is necessary to get this going. This account already has 1910 tokens at the time of this posting.
This is a free service and my hope is people engage enough on the posts to make it self sustainable. I am also doing a little curation on this account but the votes aren't worth much yet.
I will try to do bi weekly posts/reports about stats on the bot etc. I may also do some giveaways or some other fun stuff to keep people entertained and rewarded.
I am also thinking about maybe quarterly or something switching which token the bot tips out. Maybe have a vote or something like that and let the community decode. Preference on tokens that can be earned through delegating HP, or curation but am open to suggestions. This of course is in the future . I won't be switching anything until after the new year and these are just ideas for now.
1st round whitelisted users. You will get your token soon. I haven't created it yet and am still deciding on a name. A post with instructions will be coming out soon once the bot is functional..
@freecompliments - you will get 2 tokens. One token is all you need for the whitelist so you can choose another user in your group.
