( A screencap from the top secret cool kids Steemit slack with @clayop inspiring me )
It's no secret that I'm a nerdy code mercenary who creates unique and complex services for our STEEM network. When @steemitqa approached me with the idea to develop a text to tip service I loved the idea and immediately began planning it. While initially python 3.5 and the python-steem was initially used recently it was ported over to NodeJS utilizing steem.js as the workhorse behind it. Javascript is far more fluent for me than Python and the switch over to NodeJS has made the build far less difficult!
No dealing with account keys or having to go into your wallet to send STEEM or SBD once the @tippy service launches in the next few weeks. It'll be as simple as send your STEEM / SBD to the @tippy account and it will be automatically added to your @tippy account balance. With a positive balance you will be able to send tips via the "@tippy tip user 0.001 STEEM" or "@tippy tip user 0.001 SBD" commands quickly without ever having to leave the post!
Currently working on this project, having got the following systems implemented:
- Deposits
- Tips
- Balances
- Statistics
- Information
Will create a post when we get closer to launch with a better explaination of how to use it.
Please don't deposit yet! Any deposits will likely be lost and will be considered donations!

Great to see you found a ways to integrate these ideas as well. Opensourcing it, is great for it to grow and become flexible on its own, each community can use their own copy/version with different languages, settings etc... Keep up the good work!

@Klye man, my first comment out of 2 is simply this:
I am honestly super happy to see you earning big money here these days, every post, not just this beauty of a post here now way over $500
If anyone deserves it on here, with everything you do in this community, which covers a LOT of things you do and some things you DON'T do -- it is most certainly you.
You must be very encouraged these days and we are called to do that for one another.
I am pretty happy for you man, most sincerely your friend,
You have just been
Klye'd

Hi! You can look on special donation bot called dobrobot. It works for more than a week in Golos network. It differs a little in its mechanics to regular bots (as in Reddit) because it gives autotips each time you cast a vote for somebody. More than 15 people are using this bot right now in Golos, which is shown on special statistics page with personal balances.
Disclaimer: I'm not a developer of dobrobot. @ropox is. I'm just an author of the idea.

I see something like this using Doge ran into problems. I'd hope Steemit security will help to avoid something similar. I guess people could create their own personal bot to tip on their behalf.
For memos, could we have something like "@tippy tip fredbloggs 0.01 STEEM and say Thanks for the cool demo".

Half their starting lineup along with 3 key pitchers are on the DL now, = nearly $100M of payroll.
