I don't know if BCC uses a bot but to me its not unreasonable to assume so, and why they would not want to display it publicly to keep competitive edge.
Because there are many trading bots, commercial and proprietary.

Used by crypto-asset traders as well as investment banks and hedge funds around the world.

Some commercial crypto trading bots: Haasbot, Gekko, Meta trader 4 and 5, Bladerunner, Wave Trader... etc.

You can even visit https://cryptotrader.org
where you can build your own bots, or purchase scripts from other users.

This isn't anything new.

APPARENTLY this is Bitconnects ACTUAL public filling: https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/10948031
Shows they are legit and plan to stay for the foreseeable future.
Also shows their legal business structure as well as company officers.
Interesting.
