[random thought] If people are starting to look at fundamentals due to the eth/dao hack, nxt/ardor might have a strong case.
I have bought 2 btc worth of NXT recently as this is all I can spare at the moment but if the price of NXT holds or drops before the snapshot period starts, I will be looking to get some more.
You have time, even during the snapshot period
Can you perhaps be so kind to answer this:
Can we get some additional information for people who are not much in NXT but are interested in Ardor? Same number of coins as NXT? No development fund, no premines, no bounties? Just 1/1 swap for NXT holders based on the snapshot average?Ok, never mind. So this is what I understood. Buying NXT now and holding it through the snapshot period gives us NXT 2.0 main net tokens, which will later give us the same amount of main net coins on the new chain. Holding NXT until the genesis block of 2.0 is created ensures that we also get the uquivalent of 50% of the transaction tokens for the first child chain. At the end of the day we also get to keep our NXT 1.9 if we want to.
All in all buying NXT now gives us a share in a total of 3 projects (NXT 1.9, NXT 2.0, First Child Chain). Somebody please correct me if I am wrong.
1. Same number of coins as the current amount of Nxt.
2. The dev and bizdev team are not holding back any Ardor, which is the consensus coin. They *will* keep back 50% of tokens on the first child chain, if no other funding is found.
3. Funding is actively being chased for many months now and we are in talks with parties. We're also chasing innovation money.
4. Premine doesn't make sense from a PoS point of view, but no, no coins kept back.
5. Bounties may become available, as we do have community funds and nxt foundation funds which could be used for such. Will keep you updated on this.
6. For the rest: yes, a 1:1 swap and you are in.
Extra: you don't need to hold Nxt until the Ardor Genesis block. After the 3 month snapshot, you will receive your Ardor tokens on the Nxt Asset Exchange which then can be traded if you wish. THOSE will be converted to Ardor on the new blockchain in the Genesis block. So there is at least a window to trade of half a year.
