do what you want CfB, it's your 'company', let history judge, I might be wrong, maybe crypto investors don't care about these things.

I have no obligation to IOTA investors, but I will feel sorry for the ones who have their money confiscated

I don't decide what the company will do, it was just my suggestion. For profit companies should do their main business, not charity.

PS: "Confiscated" is a wrong word here.

Yes, you had terms & conditions, so it's nothing ethically based, you're just doing what you said you would ... I understand the logic

I disagree though, companies should be held accountable for more than just doing business and making investors money. They don't have to be charitable, but they should act fair and reasonable. Let's see who turns up in the future with what explanations for not claiming their IOTA. It is possible some will have provable justification for not claiming, and you will regret this decision personally as a human being, and business wise for the bad PR smell it might create. The unclaimed IOTA is a temptation, and the terms & conditions 'cover' you, so you can do what you planned.

Terms & conditions can mask morality, and that's how banks treat people, hiding behind fine print to rip people off http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-03-05/comminsure-denying-heart-attack-claims/7218818

I like tolerance myself, and respect for others property. We should make it our goal to find these people, or wait for them.

This will create a precedence and we will end giving all our money away to the poor... And I like it! I suggest to create a fund filled with community member iotas that will be frozen until those people ask for their unclaimed share. The iotas from Unclaimed Iotas Fund still should be spent as written upthread. They were sold by a company - an entity that is not expected to show signs of philanthropy, an entity that ought to blindly follow the terms of the sale.

I disagree, this not about 'poor' people, it's about people who might have a good valid reason for not following IOTA. If it's a ticket on a plane and you're late the plane has to fly, so you lost your money, but in this case why do the people running this 'company' not wait longer? Is there a good reason why these funds can't be frozen? A plane has to leave, but coins can sit in cold storage forever

I know a guy who had a stroke at 46. One day he's got a normal life, the next day he's in hospital and can't move or talk for months. 3 years later he starts opening mail from 2012. You wanna take money from a guy like that? Be careful IOTA, don't create bad blood!!

If it will be improving of Really Bad situation where he was for many years and cannot claim his Iotas and improving of BTC address, why not to help him?

I'll repeat bullet points:

Companies ought to do business.
People ought to help other people.
Those who want to help ones who haven't claimed their iotas (for whatever reason) ought to create a special fund and put their personal iotas there, otherwise it will look as hypocrisy.

I agree with CFB. If you want to start a fund to repay these people then do so. But saying that is was hidden in fine print is a lie and saying its property when it is not - because its unclaimed - is just distorting the truth.  Life isn't fair. We should not try to make it fair. We should only try to make it better.

That is a large sum.

Is the official position that these tokens will be now be used towards funding the foundation? Incredible that people failed to claim that much.

If the foundation does take that amount, how close are we to both the DEAL and the FOUNDATION pledges being completed?




5 million goes to the foundation, 5 million to Jinn development and the rest to immediate projects like a professional new website, a professional 2 min video explaining what IOTA is and what it is for and some other tasks.

I appreciate the need, but I'm still conflicted with this decision. It's possible for someone to be unable to follow iOta for many months and still have a valid reason. What about extending the time period but reducing the amount;

4 months 90%
5 months 80%
6 months 70%
7 months 60%
8 months 50%
9 months 40%
10 months 30%
11 months 20%
12 months 10%

what would bitcoin jesus do?


My feeling is simple. There were terms and conditions. In a decentralized community there needs to be accountability. I like the no tolerance rules. I think its the right thing to do. We shouldn't be assholes, but there must be consequences. And accountability from top down.

Thats an huge sum, i think they must be freezed for at least 1 year.

is not a good idea to add them to the foundation to soon.

If they are freezed is the same thing and if some one is in late ( for family or health problem) can reedem the IOTA. also after the deadline.

Please iotatoken think about that



In the terms everyone agreed to when participating in the crowdsale they had 90 days to collect. We set this limit because 3 months is more than enough for anyone with a genuine interest in IOTA to claim them. We gave an extension of 1 week for a couple of late claimers. If someone has not shown an iota of interest in IOTA for 3 months straight, they frankly don't deserve it or need it.

The iotas are going towards the project, no freeze.

Yeap, there were TERMS OF CROWDSALE, it was clearly stated that IOTAs need to be claimed in 90 days, and in fact IOTA team give addition 1 week for latecomers. If people do not want their iotas - someone other do  Cool

Hehe you can do that, but be prepared for the troll shitstorm after the people realize it Wink

Cryptohunter will jump on the occasion
