they can sell the funds and buy whaever they want - but it really reinforces the idea that this was a cash grab first and  foremost

I am invested,  but it feels sleazy ala zcash...but hey,  money is money at the end of the day goal for investor


Why is it a cash grab? they are starting their own platform, they aren't bitcoin or eth speculators.
I think the project looks totally legit compared to your typical shitcoin ico, my only concern has been and still is the ico market cap. If it looked good to me it looked good to everyone else, and the money taken in reflected that (unfortunately). It could have been worse, a lot of predictions were calling for $500m.

Well said, I agree with that said.
Tezos is great project, starting from zero. It will take few yrs to build something.
Just be patient ppl.

Agreed.

And if they can manage the process, the HODLing will be easy Cheesy

They cashed out some portion of the collected money because they can't use these cryptocurrencies to pay for different things and stuff they need to buy. Also they do believe diversifying fund in multiple assets and currencies is best policy to compete with unseen situations. They can't just hold all the raised money in their original form for long time.

Tezos to me has the potential to be a complete different alternative to both ETH and BTC in terms of governance but also different tech, there's already a need for a strong third decentralized blockchain (but there's no need to have more than 100 either...) especially when considering smart contracts future. I already named in a previous comment how Neo (previously known as Antshares) is another project trying something different too and it's worth researching.

I would say the ICO price (around $0.4 from what I learned with 20% bonus included) is not as overvalued as I thought it would be. Yes it can definitely go lower in a bear market but considering the scope and ambition of the project and how much funds they have to develop the product globally I think it's worth the risk for so much upside potential.

Why are people so worried about two or four or more months?
Ffs the longer this shit drags out the better for investors (see eth and iota for example)

Yea,  not worried.   Invested heavily.   

Tezos is supposed to be a 4 year project so the short term is really irrelevant. They have plenty of funds and plenty of time.

ETH had a pow phase iota is not that interesting and it's possible another scam, tezos don't have any pow phase so the longer you wait the mode the investors will look for something else, i feel they need to hit exchange fast, if not polo at least bittrex

I have a feeling that Tezos will be listed on polo when it's released for trading. Till then, I'll sit back and watch the dumpers reaction with my basket ready to pick more cheaper tezzies.

It's your choice to believe whatever you want. I believe arthurb (team memeber and creator of this thread) and his words on tezos blog.


So Authur is the face of this project like Vitalik is to Ethereum, time will tell how successful the project will be, to be sincere Ethereum space is there for taken but most of the developers in the space have turned to celebrity instead of writing a good, yesterday hack of Ethereum wallets hold ICO funds makes me to change my long time committment to the project.

I still believe in Ethereum and tokens. Ethereum experienced really bad things. But sometime those bad things are needed to go further.

Also invested some in Tezos. Different projects, different values and opportunies.
Diversification is a good strategy.Never put all your funds in one single project.Tezos is also good.I have invested in all three btc,eth and tezo

I do agree with you on the diversification point, 9 out of every 10 start up will fail, but the one of them that get it right will be a real big winner for investors

The team is so low-key that many people don't know about the project.
Fly low until the project is released  Wink

They seem their team REALLY likes money and a lot of it though, this is what I can see here, a lot of funds.

Can they deliver? I think Bitcoin is a much nicer model to start a project. I love Bitcoin!

Exactly, diversification is a really good strategy.

I don't think most of the investorts worry about that waiting period. Because they were aware of that.

Out of the three I'm sure Bitcoin will be booming the most. Bitcoin will go very high, I have a feeling that I will witness this. At time of posting it is 2777 again. Not too far in time we're gonna see 10777 (BTC/USD)

I am really undecided about Tezos. The team looks like some Goldman Sachs type of crew. Not impressed.

Can anyone assess their code?
