Well, POI IS WORKING, but for users it's invisible.
Could you please elaborate on that?
Poi is currently FULLY functional, but in UI normal user won't see HOW it works, he'll only see, window to send/receive nems.
So for most users, it actually doesn't matter, there is PoI underneath.
Ah, I think I'm following. When Jag said "there isn't enough time to see how POI works right away", is he saying that POI will be running but it will have to be running for a while for us to notice its impact?
Yes that is - at least I'm pretty sure - exactly what he's saying.
See with PoS it's rather simple. Either your balance is high or it isn't. POI is much more complicated and needs time because it's taking into account how "active" a user is in terms of transactions.
Hello.
But could this be somehow gamed?!
I mean could somebody setup few nodes on different machines and
automate the accounts to send transactions between each other to
raise his node Importance in the network?
Also is it possible to earn transaction fees with POI if the account has 0 NEM balance
or having at least 1 NEM is a must to start (forging,harvesting,neming,backing ....) ?
You cannot forage/harvest with 0 NEM.
Please try to game the system and see what happens
