It's a concept that caters to the minority - the cash players - and that alone makes it a bad idea. The fact that you need so many apples for one Daemon makes it a horrible idea (minimum $333 spent for 20 golden apple daemon).

Really, the only ones who'll "benefit" from this are the whales of AGG. However, the very definition of whale suggests that they'll already have what's being offered. So to summarize, introduction of Golden Apple is:


 * A kick in the face to free players


 * Small (tiny) incentive to moderate cash players


 * Inconsequential reward for whale players

It's definitely a "no".
