Can you give me a plausible reason to switch from Crypti to Lisk, something like a future prospect?
Hello s0nix,
You can read our approach and intentions in the blog post
Lisk - A new approach. Regarding future prospects you can take a look at
our current roadmap.
How are the stakes recieved, and is a google doc with the names made?
Hello LitcoinCollector,
Once a week we will collect all Twitter followers, Facebook likes, Newsletter subscribers etc. and will insert them in a Google sheet. Due to privacy reasons we won't publish the lists, but you can rest assured to be on the lists if you did everything right.
Once the ICO is over and the mainnet is launched, we will contact you on the social networks in private. We will then ask you for your LISK address and send the bounty to it. Depending on the amount of people, we might create a script for this. We will see.
Awesome. Thank you very much, I will distribute it through our channels today.
Signature added. Glad to be onboard!
Also as you have a history with NXT please consider to adding a NXT swap to your ICO as i think you will get a strong interest.
We will think about it. Honestly, we don't want to accept too many currencies because this makes the whole process much more complicated. Give us a few days to discuss this.
Promoting Lisk within the Nxt community is a very good idea. Personally, I thought we could deliver a Dapp Store plugin for the Nxt community.
This needs to be implemented before going live. I have been a strong supporter of knowing more about delegates than just a username. As it is, you can only place a checkmark on a username and vote.
Also, this information should be view able when placing delegate votes. I would like to know more about the user, name? address? e-mail? btt username? twitter? facebook? personal website? commercial website? There should be some record keeping of who is running which delegate.
I agree. We will see what we can do here, this will definitely be implemented. I just can't say if we can fit it into our schedule before the ICO. Still much things left to do.
Is there any way to ensure/avoid multiple delegates being set by a single person or an organization?
We have the example of Olivier's 36 delegates in Crypti and there were talks about possiblility of 51% attack if a group of others delegates stopped forging.
Also the blog mentions Delegates will buy more LISK to have more voting power to receive the rewards - does this not encourage hoarding of coins? which seem to be against one of the positives of DPoS system compared to PoS which encourages hoarding instead.
You vote for the delegates. You make sure that you don't vote multiple times for a single person. As Bigcabrito pointed out, we need to implement the option to add more information about the delegates within the client.
Some will hold, others will spend. A crypto-currency needs hoarders for the price to go up. I think there will always be some investors trying to get as many LISK as possible. They have the biggest incentive to secure the network and will keep it running forever. So there are not only negative aspects about them. In my opinion the majority however will spend LISK on the dapps which will be developed.
