HackaTRON S6 - $5,000 Community Contributor Prize

It’s great to see so many thoughtful answers from the sideline and the ongoing discussions. We will surely note this down and discuss it in-depth with the team. Although we are not involved in sanitizing community votes, we are in close contact with the vote forensics team and have some insights. Let us discuss the current issues that arise by giving another set of questions before the winners’ announcement.

9. We were told that the number of not-so-genuine voters has increased this season. It is obvious that their sole purpose is to register an account, only show up during voting season, and leave right after. They aren’t bots, they aren’t duplicated accounts, they are just “pure-voters.” What do you suggest the team should do about these accounts?

10. It’s obvious that TRON DAO wants projects to make a project post towards the beginning of the HackaTRON so the project can engage with the community, take their input and grow together. However, many projects chose to sign up last minute and don’t care much about engaging with the community. Do you have any suggestions to improve this situation?

11. This season, there’s a new addition - demo week. During demo week, VC or our HackaTRON sponsor will have private call with the team to discuss on potential extra funding as investment. We may even have some public twitter spaces online with some winner teams, do we have much interest from the community to attend spaces like this? Do you have other recommendations?

12. As a general TRON users, how do you find the current energy situation within TRON? TRON has a unique resource model that lets people transact or even interact smart contract for free. However, new users find it hard to get started. Some find the cost is rising if they don’t have enough stake. What’s your take on this? Do you hold back on interacting with smart contract because of cost? Or is it more because you don’t find the app attractive/safe?
