6/1/2018. Tranparencybot Update.

As of 6/1/2018 - @Booster owned by @fyrstikken, has made the decision for the platform as to when, how much and where transparency is allowed on the platform. Since @booster has more than one million SP, there is really nothing that @transparencybot can do own its own and for that matter, it never has been about what it could do on its own.

I have no ill feelings for @fyrstikken, I believe he feels he is just protecting his business and I wish him much success on Steemit, yet I do believe that the rewards pool is being destroyed by bidbots in exchange for some quick profits.

As a result of these paid voters, which bypass the natural curation process, our platform's value and the price of Steem will continue to drop as long as bidbots are allowed to boost questionable quality articles onto our "front page" for the all the world to see and judge.

@Transparencybot will continue to post, although without community support, these posts will be hidden. It is up to you, community, it has always been up to you!

Why do we need more transparency?

Yes, transparency Bot is presenting information that IS available on the blockchain, but NOT otherwise available on Steemit.

Transparency allows all of us who care about this platform to know what is going on, directly see how it affects us, become more educated as to what can be done and then; hopefully, act in a way that protects our platform for years to come.

As of 4/18/18, @transparencybot will begin upvoting random posts that use the #nobidbot tag and have not used bidbots on the post.
The number of random votes it does a day depends on its remaining voting power. Later on, a filter to select only authors with reputation's of perhaps 60 (or 50) and below may be incorporated, but for now it is wide open.

This is a non-profit initiative, all funds received by or delegated to it will be used directly for this mission only. No one, including myself is being paid for any service or product. Please consider supporting it by upvoting this post and/or the comments left by @transparencybot.

A VERY huge thank you to our delegators!
