STRAKS dev owes us nothing, absolutely nothing, so stop whining about it. It was only a goodwill gesture. They were not part of the SIGT dev that scammed us. They only offered us the chance to recoup our losses.
30 days were given to swap our SIGT for STRAKS. They decided to close it on day 28, two days earlier than expected, but what were folks doing all those 28 days? Heck, I only got to swap some of my SIGTs and I am grateful I had the chance to do so. The remaining coins are kept for other eventualities.
Yes, it sucks 2 days were shaved from the swapping period, but the moral of it all is you just can't leave things to the last minute.
You're assuming that every SIGT holder was aware that a swap was going on from day 1, you're completely mistaken. I thank the dev for their gesture even tho I think they got the chance to swap some of their bags and make good profits on top of that, this is not out of sheer altruism, anyway there is no need to discuss this further now, let's just move on.
I agree with everything @bitfreaky said.
Some people never get satisfied or always have bad luck. There is a reason for that. Even if swap period was 1 year, they will still whine and get mad.
To be it in perspective, for a tiny few who missed out (with a small margins) vs a tiny few where abusing the coulance offer to swap by buying cheap sigt to dump on us as a community as a whole (+30% of sigt supply in 4 days coming from exchanges while 27 days mostly from private wallets from sigt investors (~30%). The devs made a right decision. If you didn't swap <= 28 days or you were holding sigt and didn't knew about it, then you didn't care about your coins anyway, nor the community and project. But now you care about the project, team and community? I don't think so, you care about your wallet only and point fingers when Straks owes you absolutely nothing, while being overgenerous to gave you a month opportunity, which was announced all over the web (bitcointalk, reddit, discord, steemit, medium, youtube, etc.). As I said, I believe everything has a reason in life, maybe deal with that first, because it will happen again otherwise and this project has nothing to do with that, it's your fault, don't blame us, it would have happened anyway even when you could have swapped for an entire lifetime, something bad would have happened in your life that you still didn't do it.
If you do care and missed out, then why don't you buy Straks from the exchanges? As for me, I'm holding up the buy wall, even during the coming swap, because this one will be an amazing project with marketplace, privacy features, etc. and the devs are way more talented than most other coins who got great market caps while not even having something to show for. The community is amazing as well (been on discord every day).
Anyway, let's move on forward and keep 'em stacking
As if anyone cares about SIGT and didn't want to forget what happened, actually as I understand it the dev did the was to lift the bags of SIGT holders and most likely their bags too, not because "you care about your SIGT, the community and project"
lol
