The problem is that 90% of bidbot usage was not to boost their posts but to increase the reward from the rewardpool... especially since due to the ecosystem bidbots could even give a profit to buyers.

I'm thinking about a new bid-bot system not the old bid-bots

Yeah, but that doesn't work like that. The moment you remove downvotes, people will bidbot for profit, and there is not much we can do against that.
My focus is not in remove downvotes, maybe remove free downvotes... maybe. But what I mean (and again, is not a long time think, it happens just right now) is let people bid in a "Blockchain bot", if bid (Steem) return to reward poll or burned, why not?

We have that in "promoted" already and I believe they want to improve that in the future.
Right :) but let's face, promote doesn't give you rewards..
Anyway... I just hope this "downvote war" don't become a Steem war.

yeah but people didn't use bidbots for promotions, or only rarely did, the vast majority did it for rewards
Non-ROI bidbots are cropping up. I'm waiting with popcorn to see if anyone actually uses them.
