No worries about the bet.
There won't be a second ICO, let the markets decide when we launch - I won't be selling my chunk for a good while, if others follow my lead, this thing will be going for pretty huge prices (much higher than now).
Lastly, the tech has been (and is being) tested constantly - I'm excited to see it perform in the real world sometime in the near future.
We for sure won't start at 40mio, but 10 sounds reasonable.
1M seems more sensible. Put it on a few exchanges for a week so we can get a fair market price. No point a handful of people sitting around in here telling each other how much their tokens went up.
1. let's see it working and in action..
2. let's see if it is worth 2x ICO price let alone 50X
etherium is only 30X ico after months and months, and sat on exchange for 3x most of that period.
This is perhaps mid pump and could go back to 5x 10x quite easily.
Seems like an insta ICO with a few people pumping this who don't even have a clue how it works or if can work.
Let's see if anonymints right about the consensus issue
Let's await to see if altcoinUK is right regarding the mega new processor.
Lot's of hurdles here between Insta Ico and 10M market cap.
Even with NXT you could buy the coins at 5x ICO for a long period after. People asking 30x now is completely crazy after such a stealth ICO.
CMC is probably one of the most misleading sources on the net. This is as easily gamed as an ICO.
LISK vs IOTA is not my issue.
Although in terms of how to advertise and run and ICO LISK is giving far far more opportunity for investment and better distribution. For those of the old NXT came not to ENSURE a great initial distribution is a very large mistake.
A poll on the board of those who invested in LISK vs those who invested or even heard about the IOTA ico (with proof of investment to make sure no fake polls) you would see LISK is way probably 10X more known or more than IOTA was. This is like NXT2 .
This so far has not started well
The current IOTA price is around 30X ICO. This alone tells me there was not enough done to distribute at ICO else this demand would not so hugely outstrip supply. Put it on exchanges and let's see what happens.
If it was 3-5X ICO then this would be far more natural.
In your history of posting, I can see that you want to buy IOTA, I guess you couldnt find a buyer and know are heavily complaining here about how unfair life is for you.
It's one of the most innovation tech featured coin who already made a deal with one of the biggest company's in the world.
It's not antother shitcoin ico.
No I'm complaining about how unfair it is to 90% of the board that didn't get opportunity to invest or buy for a reasonable amount.
Again the "innovative technology" is not the question here. Although yes it is totally untested at this point.
I suggest a 2nd ICO for all those on the board that want to buy in at reasonable rates and also provide more development funds for IOTA.
Insta ICO is no good long term.
Perhaps run a Poll on the main board. You will see I think a lot of the bct members will be in favour.
Your bet is not relevant to my post though. Also how can one bet on things that can be so manipulated.
There could well be a 2nd ICO if enough of the board thought it was a great idea. Why would you not want a second IPO? You don't wish to see better initial distribution?
