Hello everyone! Today I'd like to talk about @lottobot, the exciting new automated lottery account I am managing and developing for Steemit!
@lottobot is a bot that runs a lottery here on Steemit, where the prize is a 100% upvote! To enter, simply send 0.1 SBD or STEEM to
@lottobot, and include the URL of the post you want upvoted as the memo. Approximately once every 2.5 hours,
@lottobot will select a post from the pool of entrants to give a 100% upvote to!
If you saw the introductory post about @lottobot that was put up yesterday, you probably saw the step-by-step instructions that were included. If not, here they are:
From your wallet, select either STEEM or SBD
From the dropdown menu, select "Transfer"
Put "lottobot" in the "To" field, "0.1" in the "Amount" field, and the URL of your post in the "Memo" field, then hit "Submit"!
I recommend you check out the introductory post for more information!
I am the developer and maintainer of @lottobot, which is an open-source project by Procryptix (
@procryptix ). If you would like to check out the code, here's a GitHub link!
I've got big plans for @lottobot in the coming days, including several exciting new features!
@lottobot will periodically post status updates, and I will also talk about the development process here on my blog. If you want to find out the latest news concerning
@lottobot, be sure to follow it's account as well as my own (
@hmagellan ) and
@procryptix! Make sure you stay in the loop :)
Head on over to check out @lottobot yourself, and give the lottery a try! You could be the next big winner :)
See you next time!
