Dawn of the French bidding bot canalcrypto

Hi there fellow steemians,

So this is yet another bot you think? Well you'd be right but this one is a bit particular as it's French based (and I'd like to say made but I won't go that deep as I merely followed the instructions from the open source project postpromoter). So let me introduce you to the French post promoter bidding bot on steem @canalcrypto made by @fabricus. Although I am on steemit since July 2016 I've only started to post a couple months ago and I've already seen that bidding bots do not make consensus amongst steemians but from my perspective they can be used to improve and self-sustain wonderful steem projects.

But enough background talk, that bot was made with one goal in mind => to get the most out of your SP (Steem Power) and generate an estimated 20% yearly extra income (paid in Steem Dollars). So how do we do that? All you need to do is delegate the bot your SP (so delegate your SP to @canalcrypto - if you don't know how to do that you can use the steem bot tracker delegation tool made by @yabapmatt).

If you delegate your SP to @canalcrypto you'll get daily payouts in SBD (Steem Dollars) directly into your Steem wallet (the one you delegate your SP from). A raw estimate of the daily return would be 0,057% which is roughly equivalent to 20% a year.

That goal was made mainly in order to help / contribute the French Steemit community although everyone can participate and the first step in order to achieve that is through transparency so here are the tools and maths I've used to calculate the returns I mentioned before:

This bot is using the open source project Postpromoter by @yabapmatt which I thank again for his time, effort and patience in helping me setting it up!

The payouts are done daily. The bot is keeping 30% of the profits for maintenance and the remaining 70% are equally splitted against delegators accordingly to their share of the bot's SP.

The decision to keep back 30% is just the initial setup to help me pay the first overheads but I have great ambitions for that bot and the bigger it will grow the more I'll be able to give back to the community.

I'll keep you update of the bot's evolution and of the scheduled payouts.

Looking forward to reading any feedback you may have, thanks in advance for your contribution and your interest in helping the French Steemit community (or at least I hope I'll be able to help ;-)).

See you soon on Steem,
