Topic: (LKK) LYKKE speculation - page 5. (Read 9020 times)

US-citizen can't use the App until the regulatory processes are finished and it would need the App to buy LKK. So, unfortunately not yet.

Is there a way for a US citizen to buy LKK to send to a Coinprism wallet?

Could you rephrase your question? Not sure what you mean. It's possible to store LKK on Coinprism.

is it safe to assume there are no other ways to buy/store this coin/token thingamabob?  I better just get my bowl of popcorn and wait?

Unfortunately it's not possible for US-citizen yet to use the App. Reason is that Lykke is in regulatory processes in the USA. Once Lykke has received all needed approvals that will change of course. Lykke has a team in the USA and they give their best to get it through as fast as possible.

Can people in the US use the Lykke wallet yet? I D/L'd the app, but it told me that if I lived in the US I could not use it yet? Has theat been fixed, and is there any way to invest in Lykke right now (For USAans) ahead of the wallet?

It is planned to get LKK on other exchanges as well.

Interesting: I have tested the platform and found it promising: I invested a little bit.
Do you know if the likke asset will be tradeable on others exchanges ?

It's in development:

What to expect next?

The short term plan is to enhance the settlement process and do most of the settlement offchain in the state channels, with guaranteed mechanisms to protect both the client and the exchange. The offchain will help to minimize cost of settlement (which is already above $2 per tx on bitcoin blockchain), allow limit orders and high-speed trading for clients. Users will be able to send limit orders inside the spread, thus, improving liquidity. We will provide API for this and introduce a web-based terminal.

a web wallet is needed !

Your phone app is very nice. Congratulations.

I am very excited about the Lykke project, the scope and vision of this is incredible. I suspect people who are taking a casual look on the lykke website may not be picking up on the longer term scope and potential of this project, it will truly be massive if they get this going how they envisage. Exciting times with such things to invest in!

You are right that there is no advantage in buying forwards if the price is higher then usual LKK, but that was just a temporary and more unusual situation.

In general it can be expected that LKK1Y is cheaper than LKK and the advantage is exactly that. It's possible to buy LKK1Y and to trade it like usual LKK, and/or: To settle it and 365 days after doing that, the user will get LKK 1:1. Disadvantage: Once it's settled it's not possible to trade the forwards anymore, but for Investors who are longterm-focused it doesn't seem to be problem.

Some advantages of the forwards in general: Lykke did a short LKK1Y-crowdfunding in February and while Investors are usually concerned that additional supply on the market might pressure the price, that is not the case with the forwards. Also in one year the supply won't hit the market at once but more float it over time - dependent on the time individual Investors decided to settle their forwards.

Another very interesting point is: It can be seen as a sign of optimism that the LKK1Y-price comes close to LKK, because it means that more and more Investors have settled it and the decreasing supply lifts the price whenever there is demand. Once the price is close to LKK ppl tend to buy LKK of course.

In Short: The forwards have a lot of advantages and reason for interesting market dynamics.

LYKKE still at good entry point for investing!

Picked up some HCP on the lykke exchange.
I wouldn't count it as a solid investment,
But defenitly a good program to change things for the better.
