There was a huge whale who invested 20 BTC anonymously at the beginning of the Heavycoin IPO and a lot of people were turned off initially until he revealed himself. If you want your investment to turn into a success, making it public and letting people know you support QBC is the best way to do it.
I'll be updating the IPO page with the new amounts! We've passed the 1 BTC mark and I think things should pick up soon as Québecoin gains in value.
This means each QBC is at 559 Satoshi minimum now and climbing further. I'll mine some too at launch with EC2 or simply up my investment, depending on how much the IPO ends up with.
Yeah 559 Satoshi right now sounds about right! Around 0.0025$ at current prices. I'd like to see QBC around 0.1$ minimum at launch. That means an IPO close to 50 BTC and would result in a market cap around 2 250 000 $ when trading starts (including the value of the premine). That would give us a good boost in visibility and lots of people mining the coin.
