I am curious, I have had posts upvoted by the robotev, but what is the purpose of having bots voting?

        I understand in theory this is what the reason is, but I just do not grasp it. I have had a post get like $5 off of under 20 votes, and maybe a little over a $1 from a post with over 100 votes. Both can be viewed from my profile page https://steemit.com/@cryplectibles one is from 4 days ago, the other 3 days. I do not look at who is voting every time, but when votes flood in within seconds and have no value, what is the point? I think these false numbers are not helping Steemit, but maybe there is more to it than I know and am looking to understand the purpose is all
