That's not really fair.
Some of us were here
supporting Lisk for an entire year without ANY return. I have been supporting LISK with a considerable loss in Monetary system.
The current proposed system for non-elite group is really very bad, some days back i thought to start a node by myself but now i think it is not a good idea anymore.
By "supporting Lisk" I mean creation of usable tools for the public, like creating scripts, running testnet nodes, creating useful sites, providing public api's, creating sidechains.... not trading.
If you made some bad trades, lisk cannot be blamed; you are in control of your own profit/loss.
I have no idea what that has to do with "elite group" or any group... thats un-related.
My point is that if you compare the supporting contributions of both groups, you would see that elite does nearly nothing except serve themselves. Polishing it with a lottery of only 1000 lisk is an insult imho. Thats all the group of whales could muster? hahaha
very stingy... as an example I collected 24,752 lisk in a few days for the sig campaign, so seeing the 1000 lisk lotto for voting ALL elites is totally feeble and very selfish looking to me.
