I wondered and, as I said, I have 89 colleagues, so at Thursday I asked them vote for PoW+MN & 1000 GOA & 20 GOA. At the beginnig they responded sluggishly but I was persistent. At Friday almost all voted. It was real people and votes went for all day.
But votes for PoS+MN & 10 000 GOA & 10 GOA goes by 50 per 15 minutes. It's nonsense and 100% cheat with bots.
IMO and it's just MO if you are asking colleagues to vote for what you want as well that's really no different to cheating with bots, You are stacking the vote to what you want which is no different to what someone would be doing with a bot, Real or not if they have no interest in the coin they are really messing with the result as well, Other wise it could just become a vote of who knows the most people.
Personally I don't really see the point of 1000 goa with 20 goa given out per MN, The MN is so cheap and you get so many coins that people with MN are just selling the coins at stupidly low prices just to get their money back and are driving the price lower and lower, Definitely needs to be increased IMO especially when they can be picked up so cheap at the moment, I'm not sure how many I would increase it to, Just that 1000 is almost pointless at this point.
Think of it like this if people need 2000 coins to get a masternode and because of people having to buy more doubles the price of the coin then it's no different than 1000 at half the price as the coins you are getting are now worth twice as much.
