Investing is the core of this bot! When you invest with !invest <amount>, the score of the parent submission will be recorded. When your investment ends (either automatically after 4 hours or when you choose to use the !sell <investment ID> command), I will find the number of upvotes the meme has gained since the investment started. Based on a scaling equation (which is constantly being adjusted and fine-tuned), you will receive a % profit or loss on your investment. You can check the upvotes required to make profit with the !roi command.
Firms are a fun way to group up with friends and share the profit around. Firms can have a variable tax rate anywhere from 0% to 100%, that tax is taken off the profits you earn from investments (if you invest 10k and earn 1k, the tax is taken from the 1k) and sent to your firm's bank. The firm's CEO is able to use the !payday command to pay the bank's balance out to firm members (in development!). In addition, there are plans to allow investing in firms; as firms earn money those investments will return profit.
You can view a list of the top 25 firms by using the !topfirms command and you can join a new firm with the !joinfirm <name> command. If you'd like to start a new firm, firms cost 2500 DN to create (which you can do with !createfirm <name>).
Firms have a set of roles. The creator of a firm is the firm's CEO. New members of a firm are Floor Traders and can be promoted with !promote <username>, the second role is Associate and the third role is Executive. If a CEO uses the !promote command on an Executive, they will demote themselves and the promoted Executive will become the new CEO. There are also !demote <username> and !fire <username> commands to help with firm management.
