You are talking about for receiving rewards Snax by fake accounts. How do you propose to implement it? Cheat using fake accounts (bots)? You yourself say that our https://snax.one/whitepaper.pdf describes a complex mechanism for calculating Attention Rate. You need fake accounts with high Attention Rate for their retweets to have a lot of weight. You can not just take a bot without subscribers, retweets and posts to cheat the rating of another account. Thus we get a vicious circle, you need bots that will promote bots, which will promote bots, etc. The question is why? Does it have any benefit? Isn't it easier to buy SNAX? Of course, you can increase your Attention Rate in an unfair way, but it is much more difficult than simply buying subscribers in any known social network.
My dear @sweetsnax, thanks for your reaction. Increasing your Attention Rate in an unfair way is not difficult at all. The infrastructure already exist on centralized platforms. Just look this fresh example:

I’m trying to think about the consequences of the integration of SNAX with centralized platforms. Why wouldn’t we think together? Imagine, for example, a great SNAX success. You think they won’t ditch your crypto to install their own in that case? Does anybody think in that category? It would be wise to think beyond profit, to think about the World that we are creating and unintentional consequences of our work.
Watch for my next posts for other considerations and consequences of helping centralized media to manipulate their users.
