The Elite group receives their own rewards, they dont give 30% to the community.
They vote themselfs with 8 millions and outside voters give them 4 millions, so a big slice of rewards go back to Elite pockets.

The 30% share they claim is actually A LOT less since they get most of it back.
Here is an example, anyone can see it in the Blockchain

On top of that, they already have 60 forging slots out of 101.
Not only they dont have any contribution to Lisk, no known projects of any kind, they are also contributing for Lisk centralization.

Soon Elite will control all delegate spots and all developers now supporting Lisk will move to other projects. Many already did.

And most importantly all shared Lisk are payout to community voters and not back to GDT members like some other group are doing, paying back to themselves.  Now that is real sharing.

Your not wrong at all and that is a really good point. Solidity contracts have something called gas and it takes a small amount of ether to deploy a contract. I am new to development but i am learning all cryptos as well as solidity. Does Lisk have a feature  where you spend an amount of lisk to deploy a contract? Can any developer with a wallet deploy a sidechain?

Guys, tomorrow GDTpool will do its first payout.

To receive it, just vote "gdtpool" delegate plus all 33 GDT members https://liskgdt.net/members

You can check your voting level, just going to https://pool.liskgdt.net/stats or to https://pool.liskgdt.net/account




No need to register, no need to put your data on centralized web sites. Just vote all 33 GDT members plus "gdtpool".






That's all folks

Not sure what you mean but you can look at most of Lisk Tools here:

https://liskgdt.net/contributions

They are all open source.

I did a small example on howto broadcast already signed tx on lisk network.
Someone can be interested

consider too that as soon as SDK will be released, there will be the need of delegates for sidechains.
Developers can choose to have separate delegates for their sidechains, so there will be great possibilities to forge sidechains for a lot of people

Here is a text I'm writing for my next video on Wild Promotion Youtube channel. I collected that from forum and Reddit.

"To make a project on Ethereum blockchain you will need to learn programming language called Solidity which is pretty young, unproven language and still doesn't have a big pool of developers.
On the other hand Lisk tends to focus on the JavaScript developers only which is a good decision because it's well known that Javascript pool of coders is huge.
There is an argument out there that you can develop on Ethereum using Javascript but this is only half the truth. At Ethereum you can use JavaScript for the dapp front end, and Solidity for the dapp back-end. So to develop on Ethereum you will still need to learn Solidity.
Ethereum is doing smart contracts which are all saved on one blockchain. If you want to develop a dapp in Ethereum you need to connect the functionalities of several smart contracts.
In Lisk you get a complete package. You don't develop single smart contracts. You build an entire application which is running on its own blockchain. It's like you develop a new crypto-currency platform with an extended feature-set. As a developer you just need to implement the necessary new features on the top of already existing platform.
Another argument which would favour Ethereum and go against Lisk on the first sight is that Javascript uses floating point which means some things get approximated and digits get lost in certain cases.
Founder of Lisk response to that argument is that for big numbers Lisk is using bignumber.js. He says it's not about the language you choose, it's about your coding skills. If you know what you are doing JavaScript is entirely fine.
When it comes to security at Ethereum there are "rules" directly embedded into their compiler, so if the developers do a mistake and the consensus is broken, then the dapp needs a hard fork.
On the other hand at Lisk, developers just have to follow rules, so if there is a problem it's totally fine because the dapp is only running in a sidechain.
This is a huge security advantage for Lisk. If a dapp fails, the Lisk network doesn't even hiccup. However, if one smart contract on Ethereum fails, it can mean game over for Ethereum."

Ofcourse, next year you"ll see a dozens of initial coin offerings based on lisk, just like this year we have dozens based on ethereum.

I"m not techy but can I ask will there ever be more delegate spots? like 201 or something?

As a blooming developer I have been using solidity as geth has a javascript console in the CLI. also you can import .json files. Lisk is intriguing to me as I am more interested in the tech and determining for myself how useful it is from a developers standpoint. What MAJOR differences does it offer? In the future when companies will need developers to manage their blockchains what would make a company choose lisk for their tokens blockchain over ethereum? Once you answer that question then you have a solid answer to lisks future and where it will sit in the emerging blockchain industry.

What is there to answer? Greed wins. Short term gains look more juicy than sustainable growth by funding legitimate projects. Unless you find a way to game this system, this is how it's going to be. I don't see a way around it.

Eventually as LISK becomes more popular and the price increases I think there will be greater delegate competition forcing elitegroup to provide greater pool rewards or risk being superseeded by others...

how is lisk coin if plan to hold for 3-5 months
or the coin already rise to its level

Will we ever see token lisk based?
 

Lot of time to get into LISK? No. If you enter into LISK last month, you will get 50% cheap Lisk. Now 1$. Not sure when you guys will enter. $5, $10 ?  Developments are faster than you guys think. Check Lisk Development update - Commits for May 12th - May 26th, 2017 . Also can track on Github and Gitter.

Gulp!! Lots of time to get into LISK is a bad thing.  Lisk is so far behind Ethereum,  by 2018 will be even further.  Have you seen the Ethereum news lately?  Vitalik is moving into China etc.  With $22M in funds this team needs to move very fast now.  I'm not seeing that in the blogs.

Yes but it was a standalone software. I din't remember the author or where I downloaded from (maybe github)

Hey guys, vote "popcornbag" as delegate.

He shares 25% pool rewards to voters and 70% goes to the development of liskpoker.com - which will increase the value of your LSK tokens! Currently sitting in 115th position, almost in forging status...

and i will stopp reading this topic. some off you will say: "so what?". But if i am not the only one. Then less and less people will stop here and read and post and keep the topic on page one. after that delegates can read the adds of other delegates....

No active LISK members can answer or explain this? Oh please, just a bunch of new pool adverts when I update this thread...
