Thanks! This is important!
- 1. What are the total amounts of coins ever to be in circulation (taking into account any burning as necessary)?
- 2. How developed are the actual interfaces, we as users, we'll be using to interact with Lisk (such as a development IDE, block explorers, faucets, GUI wallet)?
- 3. What is the exact date the Lisk associated with the ICO will be released to those who have invested?
- 4. What exchanges are you planning on listing on? (I'm assuming you guys will try to coordinate the release onto an exchange with the time the investors have access to their coins)
- 5. Are there any current business relationships between the Lisk organization and a potential corporate user of the platform?
- 6. Will you be making public the address associated with the coinbase vault you guys have setup to coordinate the ICO?
Hey bitkapp, my name is Max Kordek and I'm the CEO of Lisk.
1.
Lisk will launch with 100,000,000 coins. Then it will have the following inflation: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/102y7i8_79Zfuzgo4oy99EDZwbQc8lR8W-LAC0vj8RlE/edit#gid=0

- Our Block Explorer is in my opinion one of the best in the market. Here is it running on a test net: https://explorer.lisk.io/
- GUI wallet is in my opinion also one of the best in the market. From features Nxt is better, but from the user experience standpoint we definitely are superior. Here it is running on a test net: https://login.lisk.io/
- Our faucet is very simple, yet useful. Not sure how we could improve it. If you have suggestions please say them. The faucet software is open source of course. Here it is running on a test net: https://faucet.lisk.io/
- Development IDE: This needs much more work! All in all I think it's very usable, but not perfect in any means yet.
3.
We can't give a more specific date than "End of March" yet. This is software and maybe there will come something in our way we can't see yet. Which will delay it for a few days. So nothing specific here.
4.
We will try and are trying to get on exchanges. I can't say anything here yet. More news probably in week 2 or 3 of the ICO. You can be sure, that we will be on an exchange later on.
5.
Not yet. If there would be something more specific already, I wouldn't be allowed to say it anyway.
6.
This is not possible right now, because it's in the coinbase vault right now. Once the ICO ended we will move the money into our own vault. I think it will be possible to see this one transaction ID then.
I was planning on just converting my XCR over, but strangely managed to sell it above ICO value (w/bonus, that is). So it'll be a btc donation for me.
We will put it on the ICO page as a fixed number. Stay tuned.
Do you think a video would help? We can't get a vault BTC address and the money can't be moved obviously.
I hope to publish a statement as soon as possible, ShapeShift is taking a look at my draft currently.

Definitely. A video would increase confidence in the ICO.
As well, I don't understand why nobody complains about the Shapeshift partnership statement.
Please, clarify what happened and what's your agreement with them.
Thanks a lot!
I will release the video later today!
I participated in ICO and Im looking forward to start.
Also to franckuestein:
We just released a statement to our blog. It was just a matter of miscommunication. I hope all is clear now.
Hey Max, thank you for answering my questions as a developer I'm definitely interested in the IDE so I'm excited to see what you guys come up with. The last point concerning the ICO BTC address made public is also quite important imo.
Again thanks for your answer, I'll be watching closely
