it's not about HOW MANY transfers you make, but WHO are you making the transfers with, and WHAT are the amounts.

I'd like to know more, what is WHO and WHAT Smiley Or it is a secret for a while?

answer is sort of recursive, you need to make transactions with other important entities Smiley

to counter upcoming question:
"what if you would have 5 accounts that would send nems between them to boost their poi?"

it won't be possible to artificially boost PoI like that, due to vested balance and one other mechanism (that we'll keep secret for a while).

So let's assume we have 10 attackers, who would like to boost their score by sending txes to themselves.
The thing is they would actually lower it. And since PoI is sort of constant for network as a whole,
attackers would additionally boost a little PoI of everyone else Smiley

Kudos to you guys, this is very good.

What about node uptime? Say, those of us who intend to run a client on rasberry pi - if it's continuously online and doesn't see hardly any disconnects (after all, electricity can go out, phonelines can go down, bad weather, etc) will this factor into its POI score?



My friend is always talking about NEM so I made this picture.  I want to be NEM cheerleader.

This is great! Do you have a higher-res version somewhere?

Okay. I will send.

Lefties rock!

Thanks.
