This is not the first time Steem is under bot attack. This time these are promo bots. There are several consensus changes, that can reduce profitability of such practices, including increasing share of curation rewards.

Check the links in the Higher Curation Rewards Poll.

The reason bots collect the money is specifically because authors pay to bots to receive upvotes. Really do authors make profit by doing so. But they still do it to get better visibility for their posts in hopes to engage real readers.

It's the fastest way to be on a peak of the trending posts. Really, it's the answer how you become popular and how you get tons of followers, isn't it?
