Gems will be launching with Koinify, you can see the details at:
www.Koinify.com!
Not on Counterparty?
There is a bit of confusion.
Koinify is a crowdfunding platform.
Counterparty is Protocol and Client (built on Bitcoin) that Gems is built on.
To invest in the initial offering of GEMS one has to sign up at koinify.com then?
Yes
What will be the final amount of Gems ever? I am seeing different numbers on different threads (webpages). Is it 1 billion or 10 billion gems?
What will be the ICO price per GEM? If the price has not been set or will not be announced until launch day then I would find it interesting that the ICO launches one day after the scheduled October 28th launch of the
Nxtty Cryptomessenger on Google Play. The GEMS ICO price should be announced days before the ico starts. Perhaps it was announced and I missed it. Hopefully someone can soon answer my questions. I am trying to decide if I should buy more Nxtty or buy some Gems. Right now I am loving the 5% reward provided every month simply by holding Nxttycoin.
- The final amount of Gems ever will be 100,000,000 million (like it says in the OP and website).
- The final gems/btc pre-sale price will be determined by the community in a price discovery mechanism. Exact details will be gived ahead of time. (very similar method to other crowdfunding).
- Gems pre-sale will start in November (there isn't a fixed date yet)
- Gems and Nxttycoin have completely different models regarding growing the network and potential uses, you can read some here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=758004.msg8594258;topicseen#msg8594258What is Nxtty economic model? 5% interest makes the supply bigger, how do they plan to make the demand bigger?- Nxtty is an interesting project and we wish them "good luck" and much success.
The website and OP say 1 billion (1,000 million). I assume your above posting of "100,000,000 million" really means 100,000,000 without the word million on the end; otherwise, the total number of Gems would be 100,000,000,000,000. The six extra zeros added to account for the word million.
The 5% interest in Nxtty will not make the supply bigger as the supply is fixed. The 5% interest started in August and only runs for 12 months. The nxttycoin used to pay the monthly 5% to the nxttycoin holders come from nxttycoin reserves from the total supply that the developers set aside for this sole purpose.
