I don't do much battling but if u get coins everytime u assign a Pokemon to a gym, wouldn't it be better to get a friend from a different team, take over a gym, assign a really weak Pokemon and keep taking over the gym from each other? Unless there's a cap or limit I'm not aware of, u can get coins every few min instead of waiting 21 hrs with holding a gym. I'm sure there's some info I'm missing or people already do this.
I believe that your Pokémon has to be in the gym at the time you are claiming the coins. Also, you can only collect once every 21 hours or whatever it is. So if you take over a gym, leave a defender, then have your friend beat you, and you take it over again, that would still only count as one gym takeover in terms of coin/dust collecting.
