We Will of course listen to the community. Not about doing a ICO. It Will be a relaunch.
No again.
My point was about doing ICO/crowdsale before starting
this project (as it is now).
You had the chance to gather at least 50 BTC for the first ETH fork. Anyway, good luck.
EDIT: On second thought, I think you can find some investors for the current project. Why don't you try that first? If you have the abilities to develop this project, and convince some people you will not worry about the development funds anymore.
True, I also think there should be a lot of interest now from investors in exploring the possibilities of Ethereum technology.
Anyhow, an ICO/crowdsale is about the same as finding investors.
ShiftTeam, could you please post the specifications that you are having in mind for the Shift v.2?
Also, still an unknown factor within the Ethereum Foundation is when the switching from PoW to PoS will occur (they told me probably happening next year). It would be great if you could predecide on a block number. I imagine for example it could be nice if the SHIFT from PoW to PoS came early and abrupt. Maybe after three months. It could give an edge over Ethereum in terms of accelerating growth in interest of miners, if the SHIFT from PoW to PoS happened quite early. I do not know though if this is technically feasable, as I am not a coder myself.
So it would be great to have some info on your thoughts, especially in terms of:
Current coins in circulation:
PoS shifting date:
Pre- and post-PoS shift inflation rate:
Max coins:
Will coins continue to stake after hitting the max limit of coins? if yes, to which extent:
Roadmap estimates:
I assume you will be forking Homestead?
