I would say smarter way of doing marketing would be airdrops and bounties because that way they could at least get everyone involved instead of hiring people to create bitcointalk accounts and writing here about their coins. It is definitely not a bad project, it is a cool idea if they can get attraction but this is not the way of it.
Stakenet's community is pretty damn huge.. The community is extremely active overall - Twitter especially where Stakenet has more engagement than Binance, which is impressive as fuck.
Don't believe me? Go check for youself.
Stakenet is a promising project with a ton of investors behind, naturally they want to talk about it at places like here.
