Hi to all poolers of RobinHood,
I owe you some explanations about this war engaged between me and ARK. No one will die ...
ARK (
http://ark.io ) is a crypto which made its ICO last autumn, mainly from Lisk. Its ICO funds with lisk overtaken 4.5M Lisk. Basically, nothing to say against that : they got enought funds to develop their project , certainly a good one.
But since march, ARK is using its funds to promote delegates on Lisk. It is not forbidden, because nothing is forbidden on lisk DPOS, the code is the king.
But i do not like this. No one should like this : Using funds dedicated for a project outside lisk for an intrusion on Lisk DPOS, asking 15% of forging rewards from the promoted delegates (they are all hostages of ARK now).
Of course, you may read criticisms on me from ARK's hostages here. It's the game.
I have many to lost in this battle, but i see i am the only one free in Lisk delegate, able to resist. You must know that among Delegates of lisk, they are several groups formed to reach and stay on delegate position : GDT, Elite, and ARK's hostages. I was GDT until beginning of january but i quit. I am 100% free. RobinHood is my only tool to stay on the game, and it is a powerfull one.
So what's the subject for you? As many small or less small poolers, most of you don't have idea of the games of thrones inside lisk delegation. If you are pooler in RobinHood you are involved anyway ...
The rules of RobinHood rewards are now also politic : the less you vote on ARK hostages, the more penalties you may have on your rewards. All the penalties taken to ones are payed as bonus to other who achieved to have 0% penalty.
Other rules are classical : big pooler are capped so that smallers keep interest. And finally you'll reach the jackpot when voting also my real delegate Liberspirita.
Go on
http://robinhood.liberspirita.net/stats/ , find your account, and you may understand quickly how to maximize your wins.
If you do not want to play this game, it is not a huge problem. Even with a penalty of 15% or 30%, with RobinHood paying 100% of the forged lisk and cap-refund system, smalls and middles poolers are richer from RobinHood but from any other pool on Lisk.
When will it stopWhen ARK will have removed its votes (66 at this date here :
https://explorer.lisk.io/address/9569486828221897676L). Many of these 66 "hostages" worth to stay delegate of Lisk. It will be kind and normal to vote them back as soon as ARK stops its intrusion.
