3. Tokens that pay dividends!
...
Most POS coins pay %of share per year without risk of trading,
Supernodes pay for supernode , minig shares for minnig.
There is a difference between dividends and POS.
There will be 100m ICN tokens forever. When you do POS number of tokens grow.
Selecting Ethereum as your token's platform instead of running your own network was smart, taking into account your operating needs.
However, you seem to be too optimistic about ETH itself (see quotes from your whitepaper below)
-
security and predictability - don't forget the DAO (security), and hardfork (predictability) - obviously the DAO wasn't directly ETH's fault, but the idea of smart contracts on Ethereum platform seems to be quite complex even for experienced developers. And the HF for bailout, and not for any technical resolution, is just clear econo-politics.
-
use of robust and well- supported clients - working with Mist is not that robust for an ordinary user
-
high liquidity - ETH is liquid indeed but what will be your advantage from this?
-
Ethereum smart contracts enable a very transparent and secure way of profitsharing among the token holders - no thank you, the word "secure" is so improper here
Choosing a platform to be build on is definetelly smart. And in will be even better decision in future. Xaurum moving from it's own blockchain on top of Ethereum was a wise decision as well.
security and predictability: TheDAO was a special case. Keep in mind that it was a month of heated debate before hard fork happened. And no other transaction was reverted/modified. Humans build platform, and if you don't trust majority then you shouldn't trust blockahain either.
use of robust and well- supported clients: ICN will be supported natively on ICONOMI website as well. Talking of Mist not being easy to use for an ordinary user. I totally agree here. We are at the stage where internet was before browsers came out. Good news here is that this can only improve. And UX will improve faster than it did on the internet.
high liquidity: for ICN tokens we don't need ETH to be liquid at all. We need ETH network to run.
Ethereum smart contracts enable a very transparent and secure way of profitsharing among the token holders: It is transparent and secure. Whichever private address owns some ICN will get dividends. Very transparent and straightforward.
