Heavy players (cheaters or not.. doesn't matter too much in this case) are popping in... I guess it would be fair to limit the number of Byteballs going into single Byteball address... not to exceed 1-2% of supply... What about that? Otherwise distribution is going to be f**ked up.
thats a pretty good idea but it should not be anounced because else they just split into many small accounts
let them belive they get a shitload

and after linking is ended adjust coin spread to favor "normal" size users

i think the cap should be 100 BTC
any byteball address with linked amount above 100 should be seen as 100 BTC when coins are splitted

this limit can be set higher in next rounds when 1 BTC earns less byteballs

 tonych have to act clever in this initial most important coin rollout round

its free coins noone have a right on it he can adjust the rules with a 100 BTC cap after first block on 25th and the issue is solved



What I would do if it was up to me to decide, is 
- Make a snapshot block random.
- After snapshot is done, cut of whales based on upper 25% percentile of balances. This means that if less than 25% of linked addresses have more than X BTC, cut of every address with more than X BTC.

This way whales would not be able to game a distribution by splitting balances, because they would not know in advance the cutoff cap.
