why there's anyone care about "IPO"? If you want IPO, just write a coin yourself, it's so easy and will take 15mins to do. Only stupid will buy into "IPO".

So far only 2 emails have come in. We're waiting another day to get some more responses, then we'll perform the refund for all received emails.

I forgot my Sarcasm sign... am I at the right place?!

Why to "rub it in?"
They are giving refunds, so why be sarcastic?

you sure about that...... Roll Eyes

I'm sure they claim to be giving refunds.
How many other IPO's gave up and offered refunds, any?
We've just sent out the emails to our 13 investors. Sorry for the delay. Don't worry, we don't steal.

Helpful tip:
Try to think of something that has lasting value after the initial stunt.
(i.e. Was the winning city going to have a chance to rename the coin into something more "usable" than AirdropCoin?)

My first reaction was very positive.
Later I did ask some questions. Better luck with your next project.

To echo my teammate, thanks to those who decided to support us. It's disappointing we weren't able to follow through on this.

However, I think we learned a decent amount from this project, and I'm confident we'll be able to find something exciting to work on that may garner a bit more acceptance from the cryptocurrency community.

Announcement:
We have decided to abort the AirdropCoin project.

http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/upload/plane-crash_4851.jpg

Reasons:
1) IPO did not generate as many funds as we thought it would. We needed at least 10 times as much investments to successfully execute the operation.
2) Issues brought up by the community regarding legality of airdrop execution. We still think we could have pulled it off with the right amount of funds generated and creative problem solving, but this is obviously more of an assumption than a fact at this point.
3) Overall negativity from the community. We had expected this project to get a higher level of positive feedback than it did. Most feedback turned out to be quite cynical.
4) Lack of buzz the project has generated up until now. We had expected more buzz.

The root cause of failure was lack of community believe in the project's scope.

We have decided that our professional lives are too busy to justify further time investment in a project that is more likely to fail than to succeed at this point.

Naturally (well, maybe not naturally in the world of Bitcoin), we will be fully refunding all people who have chosen to join the IPO. They will be receiving an email with instructions on how to get their BTC back this weekend.

Finally, I'd like to say the following to all the people who have called us a 'scam'; Next time, please think twice before you call something a scam. There is a lot of cheating in this scene, but there are some good people that actually want to make a difference.
We would have gotten a free trip to a cool place somewhere in the world, and would have done something really cool for the local community there and generate a shitload of buzz. Why wouldn't we?

We have no hard feelings though, trolls were expected, as was the chance of failure.

If you have anything to add this, it would be good to hear your thoughts on where you think we went wrong.

Daily update from the AirdropCoin team:
We're in the 6th day of the IPO. This means there are 2 days remaining until the IPO closes and the coin goes live.

As it stands, we have raised enough money for one of our team members to travel to the winning location and hand out the premined coins from the ground. It's not ideal, but we'll do what the raised funds allow us to do. At least we will be able to hand out the coins at the winning location one way or another, so things could be worse.

We had been in talks with a potential sponsor the past 2 days, one of the biggest altcoin exchanges on the internet, but unfortunately they backed out when the BitCoin price plummeted. Securing this sponsorship would have made the airdrop possible instantly, with funds to spare. They've told us that they will reconsider after the coin has gone live. We will keep the community updated on any progress on this.

Hopefully the last 2 days of the IPO will show some more action, which will increase the chances of plane airdrop. For information on how to join the IPO, please see the 'Invest' section of our website.


We've had 150 location votes so far. The number 1 location is still a city called Barranquilla in Colombia, South America. Karlsruhe, a city in Germany, is currently number 2.

Location voting closes in 3 weeks, so a lot can still happen.

Airdrop commences in 70 days, 11 hours and 28 minutes at the time of writing this post.

Thank you to all supporting our project.
