Can a dev explain me why voting for 12 witnesses is better than automatically assigning witnesses to the biggest wallets. In case of schism/ collusion they lose everything so why trusting democracy instead of those who have money at stake?
Witnesses must post to the DAG. A silent wallet as a witness is pointless (even if it is the biggest).
If you give a spot for the biggest wallet he will join if there is money. If not the sec one will.
