I believe the 1000 minimum was in response to how much they're looking to raise for the whole project.
but even if a refund is offered, you will still need to opt in. since the protocol is distributed and decentralized, everyone in, will be in the Genesis block that I build.
If the coin is being released regardless, what reason would someone have to want a refund? It seems like if fewer people put in BTC, the people who did put in BTC will get even more BRO for their money.
some people don't want to invest because they're scared to many other people invest and also because scared not enough people will invest.
People don't want to invest in ICO because only 5.5 million BRO will be split among all ICO participants, while a
whopping 6 million BRO will be given for FREE in Giveaways to beggars over next 2 years.
That's like paying for some software that can be downloaded for FREE from the official software website itself.
The ICO share should be raised to at least 10 or 11 million BRO, to leave just 1.5 or 0.5 million BRO to Giveaways, that's more than enough to get you a zillion beggars.
Given out to beggars?
Freerolls in poker attract and give incentive to draw people into using the application, sign on bonuses, the ones all poker sites give, will be part of those funds.
Most of those sign up bonus funds that people earn, more often than not require spending more than you actually get from earning the bonus . So in essence they will be getting someone signing in with 1000 breakout coin, getting a 100% bonus match(this % is guess work but still stands to point no matter what %) Now they have a tiered reward that releases breakout coins to them every so many "Points" or ante they put in over time. most people will of either lost most of their initial stake before earning the full bonus, thus causing some to deposit more money to earn on the bonus again.
Having incentives to bring people in for freerolls and free matches or free bets brings people into the platform and increases the liklihood of having them actually use and spend money on the casino, or fantasy sports games, or the cool new fashion trend in poker or just texas hold em .
They also don't get any berg stake from those coins from what i have previously read (someone please verify)
most of the free giveaway coins will be used as incentive to futher expand the userbase of the platform and the currency. some of the free coins "given away" will actually cause more coins being bought up than would actually be given away.
