I have not used BetaRigs in quite some time.
Frankly, I was much more of n00bcake when I did.

I cannot remember if you have something in place which keeps the owner of the rigs from performing a block withholding attack.
If not, would it be extremely difficult to implement, or could this bot have additional code added to help in any way?

Do you?

BetaRigs just acts as a proxy to connect your miner to a renter's pool. It would not be possble to check for such attacks. Also, this bot is for owners, so it would not be working to prevent owners. It aims to achieve two simple goals: notify you when your rig is now, and adjust the rig's price over time. It really doesn't do anything else currently.

Leasing out your rig on BetaRigs can get you an extra few percent profit above mining straight for a pool. The only problem: you have to monitor and update your rig based on the relative price of other rigs. We have designed a set of tools that alerts users when their rig goes down, and automatically updates the rig's price based on the current market price (+/- a user-defined percentage).

Our quick and easy interface, available on our website, makes it easy to enable our bot for your rig.

Currently, the project is not open source. However, if we receive a few donations we would certainly consider releasing it as open source to allow others to set up the cron jobs on their own computer, and manage it yourself (just in case you don't trust us with your API key). If you ever have any questions, we're here to help! Donations are always accepted: 1MF7hKShzq2iSV9ZZ9hEx6ATnHQpFtM7cF! Enjoy, and happy mining!
