I agree that the NXT AE redemption deadline was confusing and not the best planning, but NEM stakes aren't there for speculating so I don't feel sorry for the people who already redeemed.
Every asset on the Nxt AE is made for speculating, expect of NEM it was made for further distribution? It actually made it worst...
I can't tell if the NXT AE trading had a positive or negative effect regarding to the wide distribution of stakes in the end. Maybe it was a wrong decision to let the people trade. But we can't change that anymore now so its not worth discussing a what if thing.
The silvercoins are assets and you can choose if you want a real coin. If not, just sell the asset. What was the problem for you again now?
Who is responsible paying for it at the end? Do you not have to sell dev funds for it? I want a highly programmable currency nothing else, i dont want to start a silver gold collection
.
No, the dev funds are not touched for the silver coins. Since there were some people who tried to get more than 2 stakes and they got catched, there are funds from these sock puppet accounts in terms of NEM stakes which don't belong to anybody now, because they will not be redistributed to the other stakeholders equally.
P.S.: Don't miss it: NXT AE redemption deadline is on February 26th! If you don't redeem till then, your NEM stake is lost.
