At the end of 3 months, if all levels are mined, FUTX swaps back for ETH. If all levels not yet mined, the swap will happen end of month 12.
When the swap happens at the end of 3months or 12months, how much ETH is returned per FUTX?
If all the levels are completely filled and all the tokens swap, then about 0.6 ETH per FUTR. That's unlikely, so just discount accordingly (let's say an estimate of 0.4 ETH per FUTR in the first cycle).
If mining of all levels is completed after 3 months, but before 12 months, do FUTX holders still have to wait until month 12 to swap their FUTX for ETH?
No. They would wait until the end of month 7. The swaps cycles are per every 3 months, with a 1 month waiting period after which the swaps take place. If the levels were filled in month 4, this would count as month 1 of cycle era 2, which would justify a swap at the end of cycle era 2 (that being after month 7 which is 3 months for mining - months 3-6 - plus the 1 month swap waiting period - that being month 7.
When mining is completed, and the swap can occur, how much time does one have to decide to make the swap or hold?
As stated, there is a one month period for prices etc to order themselves between the end of the mining and the actual swap dates. The swap dates are open for 5 days.
If mining of all levels is still incomplete at the end of 12months, what happens then?
Then no matter where we are with respect to FUTX mined, the swap is opened up for 5 days, giving you a chance to reclaim the underlying Ether if you want it.
I read every bit of info about FUTR and FUTX that I could find anywhere. This is a very intriguing idea, but I have so many questions like the ones above. I'll wait for a response on these before asking more.
Thank you for actually asking intelligent, well-reasoned, insightful questions. It's refreshing. We are happy to answer these sorts of questions any time.
I would recommend making a video explaining and detailing the mining and swap process in layman's terms, but include all the important numbers.
Funnily enough, our UX guy has banging on about this so he has just started to engage a professional video guy to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Thank YOU very much for the keen and intelligently focused interest in the product!
