Topic: MemoryCoin 2.0 Voting - How Does It Work? (Read 3808 times)

You can use the preferences mechanism to vote for, let's say, more than 1 candidate for a certain role (e.g. Freetrade as 1st preference, yourself as 2nd preference).

You can have as many wallets as you want - but that's why the size of the wallet counts and not the number of votes.
There's no other way to support fair voting in a crypto-currency.

Sure, as long as it's a votable address (MVTE prefixed. For example, my CMO address is MVTEcmodH7do4V47ht1U9AXQKMouqYNAYM)

Each officer is elected by the community (shareholders) to perform that role.
So that differs a bit from most real world companies where the CEO approves his deputies.
Therefore, these roles are a bit more independent, but obviously we won't do a very good job if we're not synced with one another, especially with the CEO.
As for job feedback - that's a very nice idea to further utilize the voting system where officers could use it to rate one another. The community already rates the officers by voting for (or against) them.

I've a few questions:

Can a person vote more than once on the same 'issue' from the same wallet?  How often can we vote for a new executive board member?

Is there anything to stop a person voting multiple times by downloading the wallet software onto different computers, or even multiple times onto the same computer (can that be done?).

Can a person vote for themselves by sending coins to their own address?

What powers does the CEO and other positions have?  The CEO is supposed to be in charge, so can the CEO tell the CTO which features to prioritise?  Does the CEO approve the marketing plans of the CMO before they are carried out? Everyone should be reporting to the CEO presumably who then (in this case publicly) evaluates their worth as part of the executive board, and they can then give their feedback publicly on how good a job they think the CEO has done in guiding/leading them.

The voting system is very fair and ereryone who knows it well will absolutely support it.
FreeTrade is the only person who can make memorycoin best in the future.Memorycoin will be nothing without his contribution and leadership.

Pretty standard for any corporation for shareholders to have votes in proportion to the number of shares owned.

I should have run on the election promise to share all my election winnings (and whatever else graft I could get) with the top twenty donors.  #uglypolitics

Hahaha! Honestly?

Isn't this called "buying" not "voting" -- as in "buying an election"!

How dumb are people who use memorycoin to be fooled by this?  Most corrupt joke of an election that seems possible.  The only nice thing is that it's told to the users clearly (even though most people still seriously get taken in thinking they are "voting" for something.)


Seriously, please point out that I'm being the idiot here and missing the idea.  Isn't this corruption and deceit outright?  Deceit because someone has the nerve to call a bought-election concept as "voting." When all the small votes are just stolen by the largest buyer.  It's more like a fools pool going to the biggest buyer, right?

A "fair" election is one user per vote.  And that can't be done because the system doesn't have a real ability to determine "one user" as in "one person."  

To get back to something fair you'd have to qualify like the old system of "only land owners got a vote" -- something like each user account at a pool gets to vote. And obviously that wouldn't work either.  No easy answer.

MemoryCoin it's nice, and serious. I'm not sure it's going to the moon in short, but it's going somewhere long-term
