Is it just me or lisk HQ "sold" the lisk to the Chinese, juts for a higher value of lisk?
In the last two weks, the Chinese community started an assault on the delegate positions, spawning delegate after delegate, delegates that have never been seen before. They have no testnet delegate, nothing. They just have 50k lisk, the limit to enter the "Elite" group, which seems to be more of an army of sockpuppets, not even separate individuals, all happening under the direct orders of Luiz(the Chinese Lisk Ambassador, or at least this is how it looks).
Everybody in Elite is forced to share 25% of forged lisk which is supposed to be distributed to their voters. But if we look on their distribution list of forged lisks, we'll see that in fact they pay themselves. ...
Also, lisk team, isabella and Joel even went on supporting that action by not taking a position, even somehow endorsing Elite actions, while not long ago, lisk hq was not missing a single moment to say something bad or to denigrate GDT, the same group that spans 20+ countries and supported lisk from the very begging, while the Chinese community was absent.
GDT gave the snapshot option, the recovery script, the long list of alternative wallets that you are using when lisk official node is ddosed,are provided and supported by GDT, not elite. Elite is the group of whales and are organizing a lottery giving away 1k lisk?
With elite taking over delegate places, the forks started to appear again, because most probably the Chinese are forging with two accounts on the same server.
If you vote for elite you should start thinking about what you want? You want delegates that know lisk by heart and they are supporting it for more than a year(servers, donations and so on) or you want a few lisks more in your wallet for now, but never caring about the long run?
When I wrote about DPOS vulnerable to centralization attack "you" were satisfied with everything because "you" was an active delegate.
Now you are crying like a baby. Are the Chinese getting places in top? It's not a problem with one group or another it's a problem of current DPOS.
They have a lisk and they vote. If anybody can hold 20% of total lisk amount he can get all places in top.
But that everything suited you before. Now you are under attack.
Active delegate mined about 50k lisk it's about 15 BTC at current price. You said about "heart"? 15 BTC it's cool price for "heart".
How many will remain delegates if the reward is removed at all? Will you cry in that case?
No. You cry cause you lost or you can lost your lisk reward.
Are you want a place in the top? You should buy lisk and vote or/and do useful work for lisk community: build apps, organize contests, advertise, etc.
Do useful work and don't cry.
