Your tutorial is great and really detailed. Thank you that you put so much effort in preparation of this material.

Personally I believe, that whoever have a skills to follow those instruction, should do that - I mean, use official tools.

I am @noisy from Tokenika.io, and we believe voting will be extremely important. As you wrote that down, without enough vote network will not be fully activated.

The EOS mainnet will not be considered valid and activated until at least 15% of all issued tokens have staked a vote.

Knowing that default voting procedure can be too difficult for many people, we decided to prepare a much simpler voting tool which will not require installation of any tools... and will allow people to generate and sign a transaction OFFLINE:

Very soon we are going to release on our @tokenika blog some additional materials (article + video), which will show how people will be able to vote securely with this tool in just few minutes.

PS. We also recommended there your article :)
