The Trust score on the Coti treasury is going to play more of a pivotal role in the coming weeks. I had never paid much attention to this as I never knew how I could influence this score. The busier you are staking and farming your rewards the higher your sore will become.
Over the last 7 or so months as I only entered the treasury in April I have managed 85 transactions in total. As we know from being involved in CUB DeFi with Kingdoms farming is done on a regular basis but has to factor in the cost factor at the same time. There is no point if the farming of the rewards is going to cost you the same amount you are farming as that would be rather stupid.
The Coti Governance token is going to be airdropped very shortly before DJED making it the first coin being minted by Coti. GCoti as it will be called will be weighted against your activity on the treasury and not necessarily your stake. Someone could deposit 1 million Coti into the treasury and stake it for a long period of time 120 days plus and actually do nothing else compared to someone farming rewards daily or every few days. The smaller account would have a higher Trust score thus would deserve more GCoti for their activities. The Governance token is being introduced to increase participation to help with the overall growth of the treasury. Having regular fees occurring from stakers along with the other service fees being generated will help increase the APR which everyone benefits from ultimately.
GCoti can only be earned on the Treasury as it cannot be bought and sold as the purpose of holding the GCoti gives you increased APR and reduced fees. I am not sure how often this airdrop will happen and if it will be monthly or quarterly or longer periods. If somehow you can increase your APR then it is obviously worth having and paying attention to this Trust score.
The obvious answer is to farm daily until the GCoti is airdropped even if it does cost you slightly as the benefits of having a higher APR should outweigh the "losses'. When I say losses they are minimal at these prices currently as I earn just over 8 Coti every day and by farming would only be earning 5.8 so a loss of less than 25 c. The aim obviously is to get the compounding to take place and why I am aiming for 50 Coti per day long term.
My score before I started to play around with more regular farming and staking has risen from 13.8 to currently 14.6 so maybe a score 20 is a possibility before the airdrop happens. There always seems to be a game within a game where crypto is involved as we try and maximize our returns.
