Got at least 1,000 $IOST tokens sitting on an exchange or in a hardware wallet?
Well, don't let your tokens just sit there. Put them to work!
The IOS (Internet of Services) Foundation's MainNet node elections are up and running now. And the earlier you vote, the higher your rewards.
And if a node you vote for ends up getting elected, you're entitled to a share of that node's block rewards for as long as the node stays up and running.
Here's how it works:
1) Vote for a node using ERC-20 $IOST tokens (at least 1,000 tokens required to vote)
2) Earn 25% (annualized) returns throughout the election
3) Once MainNet launches, the project returns MainNet $IOST coins to you along with a generous bonus
This is but one example of the project's innovative nature -- IOST is using the elections as both a staking opportunity as well as a token swap. And as a result, they've already established a worldwide network of 68 node operators.
Tick Tock...
Once the early bird window closes, voting rewards will diminish.
As of today, Feb. 16, 2019, there are 21 days left to claim early bird rewards:

Over 37M $IOST given to voters so far
Looking at Coinpaprika right now (you know about that one?), 1k $IOST = $6.77.
$IOST currently trades on Binance, KuCoin, and more.
I don't give financial advice, and you're free to do what you want with your money, but sub-$7 is a pretty inexpensive way to be a part of blockchain history.
I've been following along with IOST for quite some time now, and I align with their long-term view.
I hope some of you get a chance to get out there and rock the vote!
And in case you missed it, I recently created a Publish0x article covering how IOST wants to help NASA blast to the moon. Check it out!
Peace and love to all the crypto-nauts here today!
