The only suggestion I have is lowering the buy in price once it gets up to stage 5. Above 650sat seems kinda steep for a coin that hasn't been released yet and not knowing what exchange it is going on upon completion of the IPO. At the current rate you will receive over 454 BTC before we know everything(If I missed something on Page 1 that you had than disregard, I didn't see it). What if you reverse it and have for Stage 3 have 15,000,000 CPL. Stage 4 have 14,000,000. Etc.... Do as stated above and lower the cost of buy in to where it doesn't exceed 950sat OR leave the same only lower the cost of buy in.
Just my thought on it. I mean, I see Stage 6 and HOPE it is reachable at 950sat for a brand new coin but than I see Stage 7 and just say to myself "How?" Lol. Don't get me wrong, I am for sure a buy in at Stage 3 and like what this coin is about, especially that you can sell your coins back from Stage 4 on to make an "instant" profit but yeah... People just have a lot of doubts with new coins, especially premine due to scams and P&D coins. Why not make this coin so they can't even think it is or as far off as possible from it...
Thank you for your suggestions. We have thought long and hard about the buy-in prices so I'll try to explain some of our rationale.
We modelled the "Buy-in" prices after the life-cycle of many other PoS coins that have been released. To use Blackcoin as an example, the very first price that was offered on the first exchange was 500SAT and it sat there for a few days. It traded between 500SAT - 1000SAT before skyrocketing up to the levels it is at today.
Our rationale is this - Stage 1-6 investors are able to acquire coins for far less than BC's average price (which was about 1000SAT). The 1 week mining period centralized a large amount of coins in the hands of whale-miners so there was only a very small portion of people actually buying the coins at the beginning. BC was kept relatively quiet for the 1 week mining period and only after that did investors jump in and bid the price up to around 8000SAT before taking a rest.
Since there is no mining period for CPL, our structure offers an equal distribution allowing early investors to benefit slightly more than later investors, allowing a steady rising exchange rate that all can participate in. However all investors that participate in the IPO are getting in at far cheaper than other successful PoS coins that have been around for 1-2 months.
The reason the price jumps so much after stage 5 is because that is when we plan on rolling-out most of the advertising budget acquired from stages 1-3. Also, by that time, we hope people will trust that we are serious with our long term plans and once they see the advertisements going strong, the exposure should drive us right through the final stages and onto exchanges.
Finally, let's look at BC's current price after about 2 months of existence: 9500SAT. Judging by this price, even investors in stage 7 who get in at 1400SAT are participating at 6x lower that BC's current price. Those that are getting in before stage 7 are getting in at over 10x lower than BC's current price.
We will become as successful as BC, however it will take some time. Everything BC did has been studied and we plan on emulating their life-cycle, however with a more equitable distribution. Also once we're on exchanges, we have plans to launch a CPL multi-pool just as BC has done since it is a great idea.
