"1. Token holders who created tokens during the last 2 weeks of the creation period"

are they kidding ?

Sounds like a suboptimal solution to me.

Thats acceptable in this case. Its because the dao price rose during the last 2 weeks, thats why their share is worth (a little) less. It's like you buy something in a bubble, what they did...

Will there be a vote for the hard fork? I know there was a vote for the soft fork and majority voted for.

Very important: Buterin on Paul Sztorc (from Bitcoinhivemind or truthcoin, backed by Roger Ver): Personally, I think that Paul Sztorc is a bit extreme in his pronouncements that the miners will take the 1m ETH bounty; he is the sort of person who takes assumptions of extreme economic efficiency, liquidity and zero market friction far too seriously for his own good. In reality, I think miners would not take the bounty at least at this point in time, especially since doing so is a coordination problem (one pool staying off the fork unilaterally would lose out unless all did so, for example). However, the DOS attack does make any soft fork very hard to accomplish.

Fair enough!

http://www.ethereum.net/news/technology/international-blockchain-week-devcon2-announced

During the first three days, from September 19th-21st, DEVCON2 will allow attendees the chance to discover more on Ethereum’s research, development and security, as well as DApps. Guests will also be treated with a special presentation from the event’s Premiere Sponsor, Microsoft

, which will highlight more details on their Ethereum-based project, Azure.

vbuterinJust some guy 1 point 11 minutes ago

A website with much more detail dedicated to the devcon2 segment will be coming very soon; however, individuals interested in attending the whole week can definitely go through http://blockchainweek2016.org to buy the whole week pass for $1500 (NOTE: if you are a developer or student you may qualify for the developer/student discount for the devcon2 segment, in which case even if you want to attend for the whole week, registering for the devcon2 segment through the upcoming foundation website separately will still be a better deal for you).

Anyone interested in speaking should obviously contact us, though I will warn that the schedule is >80% full already.

lol who is they? the same people that use geolocation on your mobile...

I dont think geolocation is really involved in these tags...i dont have my smart sneakers yet,lol

Anway this isnt a fantasy idea any longer...Reebok and Addidas already began using the Smart tags

heres is some smart tags that do have geolocation if required. Tongue

1) The implementation has been largely spec-frozen to the following python:

# call before running transactions
def initialize():
   if state.block_number == DAO_HARDFORK_BLKNUM:
   for acct in HARDFORK_DAO_LIST:
   state.set_balance(HARDFORK_DEST, state.get_balance(acct) + state.get_balance(HARDFORK_DEST))
   state.set_balance(acct, 0)

However, the dev community is debating the simplest way to minimize risks of issues related to light client syncing. The actual logic that allows DAO token holders to claim their ether would be implemented in HARDFORK_DEST.

2) The ether claiming logic is largely a simple withdrawable token contract, but small details are being debated regarding how to deal with secondary daos, legit splits, etc. Note that this can proceed in parallel to (1), there are no sequential dependencies. Simplicity of the ether claiming contract is understood to be a very important concern.

3) Note that the above should absolutely not be taken as an official endorsement of hardforking by either the foundation, or ethcore/slock/string, or the individual devs involved; some of the devs involved are pro-fork and some are anti-fork, the goal is to give the community a choice.

thanks for all the great posts mrpumpitis. I cant believe there is still question on HF. seems like its a no brainer. Stealing shouldn't be rewarded even if done under guise of smart contract

glad u like them m8, totally agree with you. Good to see things are moving forward well.

Heres another post from the REEBOK story, well written and good info...http://coinjournal.net/ethereums-blockchain-secure-sneakers-honor-kanye-west/ "The antenna inside will break if a tag is removed, so a smart tag cannot be removed and then placed on a counterfeit item.”

This got me thinking, i know ladies that have paid $1000+ for Gucci handbags on places like craiglist, im convinced the seller is selling a fake,lol if the bags ( or any other item ) had these tags inside they would be easy to verify if they are the real deal...This could be real good tech for the big names in the fashion industry.

Yes, true, if it means that the ETH they will receive is in the same range of what they paid more for it during the token sale.

actually I totally misunderstood, author said it wasn't perfect because "some groups will not get a 100% refund".....if I read correctly ...those token holders who created in last two weeks may get slightly more that 100% refund. less than what laid out but in line with valuation at the time with known redemption ( a little better I guess)
