I disagree, the concentration of NN is bad for decentralisation and if it starts it'll be hard to undo coz notaries don't compete like PoW miners, so there'll always be a worry about collusion (even just a perception) if multiple NN are operated by a small clique of insiders who aren't required by the system to either compete in mining and invest in hardware, or put their capital on the line with PoS. That's why P-Trump is trying to encourage as many people to run as possible now before season 1 & 2 veterans run again and get more NN, and offering some voter bribes is a way to level the playing field with established NN who have good reps and more rusted on voter support from established relationships.

Crypto consensus is built on competition and risk/reward game theory dynamics, and as good as komodo dPoW system is technically, a weakness is the NN operators don't have to compete directly and don't have to invest much $$, so there's a risk of ending up with an insiders circle jerk when what we really want is 64 independent NN.

The only multiple notary candidates I'm voting for are PIRATE & kmdlabs (are they running in multiple regions?), and projects with 2-3 people working together.

Am I greedy if I take a bribe to vote for a noobie? lol

Been saying it since season 1 ... community pool nodes tick ALL the boxes Smiley
