Only pools must be in delegates.

You want 101 people to do their damn best to give Lisk forging nodes 100% uptime? Don't vote pool nodes, vote for people who are VERY STONGLY MOTIVATED to fret over Lisk nodes 24/7/365 for their own benefit. You get what you pay for.

Understand you delegates, you aren't necessary to Lisk.

These are the words of somebody who has never run a Lisk testnet node for months.

But you want.... one person to receive 148k new forged Lisk + Lisk transactions per year. 148k Lisk and Lisk price 0.1 usd = ~14,800 usd per year.
~ 15 000 usd just for the node service? It's too expensive. VPS price = 40usd per year. If Lisk price grow up to 1usd, ~ 150 000 usd for the node service. LOL

No one will buy Lisk because his money will be food for Lisk developers friends(now they are delegates) and ARK project.

Cease to live at the expense of the community.

Per the original direction of Lisk management, it was recommended that those interested in becoming delegates for Lisk solicit votes by offering to use the forging rewards on Lisk related projects. Ark was founded to be able to run as a blockchain which can be bridged to Lisk and operate as a blockchain application with Lisk, so Lisk developers would have access to the blockchains bridged to Ark and Ark developers would have access to the Lisk blockchain applications, so it qualifies as such a project. Since there are very few salaried positions with Ark, and the current budget is under $15,000 USD per month, the use of Lisk forging positions as alternate compensation to develop a Lisk related project allows the current funding level to last much longer, and to have the cash on hand for hiring additional developers as blockchain qualified candidates to fill as needs and opportunity arise, to pay for other operating expenses, and for marketing when mainnet is released.

The current operation of Ark is completely within the guidelines originally presented by Lisk management.

Lisk investors = big losers. Now they will be food for Lisk developers friends(now they are delegates) and ARK project. And Lisk price below ICO. Grin

101 000 new forged Lisk per year and Lisk coins limit after 2060 year it is the most optimal solution.

I suppose no one will buy Ethereum because a small group of people with big mining farms are collectively earning $100k+ profit per day for their node service?
