About Alien Worlds, and I don't mean to intrude that much, it's really to share a technical consideration.
I observed their population for some time and for the time I observed it (which stopped some time ago but it was still the exact same 200k and had the exact same activity at that moment, though I would need to verify it more closely it looks the same) it does not follow a normal curve and behavior and related market activity.
Making me think of mainly a "stable bot farm". But there is a new habit in wax projects handled by marketing - you know how they have some ponzi tendency and also use "pragmatic solutions" to keep $ on top - which is usually to set up their own bot farm for their own projects, so as to keep on top on charts and also gather up their own currency; they don't think trading against their players would be so bad once they can drive the value up by other means.
This may look surprising but it's only a technical note I wanted to share.
I observe this habit in several projects (well at least 2), and I know by vocal confirmation from an owner in one wax project owned by marketing, where they precisely set up their own private bots to farm their own currencies.
It's real, it happens, and it scales, and nothing can tell them it would be a "bad idea" because they only see the money and the currency control - with currency farmed that they could want to sell at top value, considering they can drive value with announcements or content, so they can use trading as well once they give value to things, and players would not guess it because of course it's done in secret with their own fake accounts.
Sorry for the mood but hopefully we can try to have other ethics. Setting up a project-owned bot farm to have a lot of stats on dappradar is easy, unfortunately. It gives the accounts and the activity. But people also unfortunately look less at these details these days, and start to think it's a normal culture too.
Ah this is fantastic insight @elindos
