Can't wait for KMD to launch! Only regret was not investing during the ICO bonus period 
On the contrary to what many people believe... it is still possible to invest in KMD even though the ICO is over. You can just buy BTCD, and depending on its market price you might get a good bonus compared to what people paid during the ICO. The BTCD price has declined along with the other altcoins while the BTC price has risen.
The KMD price during the ICO with 0% bonus: 1 BTC = 7746,521995 KMD
BTCD swap rate: 1 BTCD = 50,42041779 KMD
I'll try to clear out all the uncertainty & misunderstandings
We try to swap all BTCD there exist throughout 1 full year. If someone has BTCD it can be swapped, no matter when it is bought. You could buy BTCD 6 months from now and swap it for KMD.
BTCD Snapshot to get REVS
- The snapshot is not related to BTCD swap.
- The snapshot is to get an additional asset called REVS.
- The privatekeys are used to redeem the asset.
- The snapshot has not happened yet!
- to participate the BTCD can be stored either in a BTCD address under your control, or in our ICO site
BTCD Swap to get KMD
- has nothing to do with the snapshot
- is done through the ICO site
- lasts 1 full year
- swapped BTCD ends up to our account, where it is publicly visible (nothing will happen to the swapped BTCD)
- hopefully every single BTCD coin will get swapped during the year
Schedule
- ICO site accepts BTCD
- 7 days after that BTCD snapshot happens & the swapping begins
- Elections begin, and last 2 weeks
- Elections are over, elected notary nodes will get ratified, KMD will be distributed
The conclusion
If you buy BTCD it can be swapped at any time. To also receive the REVS asset you need to have a privatekey that contained BTCD during the snapshot. BTCD swap and snapshot are two separate things.
During the year BTCD can be swapped for KMD with the exchange rate we announced: 1 BTCD = 50.448 KMD (However the exchange rate decreases slightly throughout the year because BTCD staking expands the supply)

I see 1 btc worth btcd is about 14k kmd, so buy kmd to sawp is better than btc investment? And we need to withdraw them? The date of snapshot?
