Just checked again the wallet for @VaderResearch AirBnB yapping.
This time the highest bid is BBB with about 10USD. Based on the rules out there, there is no minimum amount required, so that would mean that Virgen would get the 50K $VADER.
Due to the fact that two accounts have sent out the same token, it would be interesting to see which account gets the reward or not.
I don't think that the current auction will end like this. Individual voters will see how this is handled and will try to get the second place, as it would mean 50K in Vader.
A possible strategy could be actually, to spend about 800 dollars in tokens.
405 Dollars in one token that the individual would like to have promoted as a project and 395 Dollars on a second token, to get the second prize and also 20% of the tokens moved to the next round. Then the individual would need only to fill 80% of it the next round. It would sum up in a win of about 20% net in Vader tokens.
BUT, only if he is the only one playing that game. If anyone comes to the same conclusion and plays the game, you are just screwed, as you are not directly the project and someone else is playing the game.
Due to the nature of Blockchain, everyone can actually see what you are doing and what others are doing, so it is really going to be interesting to see if projects are jumping on the ship to participate in the weekly Vader AirBnB or if individuals are trying to game the auction.
If nobody is onboarding, it is going to be BBB that is winning and the community should yap about BBB, but with that amount on auction, nobody will actually do anything. So let's see how this evolves :)
The @VaderResearch Yapping Economy is reshaping again.
Due to the fact that we now have a Thursday "outside" yapping event with Yapping AirBnB, the point allocation for Vader yappers has been decreased from the current 17.5% to 11.25%. This is almost a 50% reduction from the point when Vader yapping started. And it is a further reduction after a week.
With this change, Vader has also created a separate mechanism for the auction. To increase the competition, Vader is giving out 50K of $Vader tokens to the second bidder. Let's see how this structure could work.
1. First bidder
Will get a full day of Yapping from Vader yappers. But only if the rewards are going to be big enough.
2. Second Bidder
Will get 50K of Vader tokens.
3. Rest Bidders
Tokens used for the auction will be used by Vader for maintenance.
=== So what is happening now? ===
An auction and the rewards there are always as good as the participants are onboarding. A part that may not have been considered at the moment from the Vader Auction is that also normal users can bid for this auction. If you see the transaction history, there are two different addresses that have bid for Virgen. If the auction field is not changing (which I don't think is happening), BBB would get the yapping day on Thursday and Virgen would get the 50K Vader. The question is who is getting it, because there are two addresses that have sent over Virgen. It could even be more people joining after the 50K Vader has been announced. Not actually to promote a specific token, but to get the second place while spending less than 50K Vader.
This could be an interesting part if projects and project hodlers are both betting for the first place. :)
