Ok, but in my example, if I will bet 300 DNA they can say the threshold was 295 DNA, sorry you are not selected.
I mean they can always say a lower amount just because they can using this method.
Why to make the bounty like this when you can make it transparent and let users know how much they will get for their work. Take it or leave it style.
But what's the point of that?
1- wasted week
2- no translated content
You are not working unless you are selected. So there is no profit for them in such "strategy". All you are supposed to do is to go to discord and post the lowest amount of DNA that is acceptable for you for this translation.
They are running this to get translated content not to waste everyone's week. In 23/02/20 they will close bets and see what's the lowest offer. If your offer would be the lowest and lower than their threshold you will be selected. I don't see a point to cheat in a way you said. If your offer will be higher than you won't be selected and won't start translating - you will waste 30 seconds of your time (time to post an offer on discord)
And again:
Every Public procurement (not sure if I translated it into english correct) are arranged like that (at least in my country) with once exception - you don't know any competitors' offers
You never know how much money they have for job you are offering to do. And sometimes it is weeks of counting (f.e. 100M $ bridge or road)
