What's up with these new bots?

Prior to writing this post, I checked and I'm not the only one receiving these unusual upvotes. If you've not received these upvote/comments don't worry, it's just a matter of time before you do. Now, I should say I don't find them to be offensive or bad, I'm just curious as to why this is happening. How is this a business model?

At first I had one account following me doing this, but it has become about five at this moment. I suspect they are not human operated, but bots, however I've not yet confirmed. Some of them actually request some donations/delegations, but all of them seem to be from chiseled from the same script.



I guess I could dig a little deeper and find out who is operating these bots, if it's some sort of curation initiative or what have you, but because I don't necessarily see the harm in them, I've hesitated to put in the investigative work.

Let's see how long they last, I suspect not too long, specially because they are renting out delegations for their "business model" and today, specially at these prices, that can't be sustainable in the slightest.
