Topic: Tezos discussion - page 212. (Read 215630 times)

Any telegram or slack community place for Tezos?

yes, it's become very clear to me over the last two months that this dev does not care about the community. what is a blockchain project without a community? nothing.

 Tezos is an independent smart contract platform built as an alternative to Ethereum.
Was it needed?Are they planning to cash in on Ethereum platform popularity?

seems fair !

set the cap
collect all the ICO investor's btc
boom.. you've got the fair price - btc sum / cap
send everyone's cap %

that's all

There are some good points raised there. It is always difficult to predict and consider all the possibilities. One thing is for sure: if they made a capped ICO it could end up in hours with no smaller fish buying shit. Then whales would dump at high prices at the first opportunity in the exchanges. So it is a loss-loss game. At least whales won't do that easily if anyone have the opportunity to buy it in the fixed rate of 1 BTC = 5000 XTZ + bonus. And starting as a purely speculative coin is detrimental to the adoption of the coin. So I kinda understand the uncapped ICO.

I don't care much about the amount of money this or that person/company puts in Breitman's pockets. I don't think they are after some ponzi scheme of the sorts to get rich and turn their backs to the project, I even suspect they are already settled in this respect to a point. No, I think they are even too ambitious about the development of the things, from the non-monetary point of view, and that they care a lot about their public image. Their stratospheric ambition is shown in the overly naïve, absurd, passage:

"Negotiate with a small nation-state the recognition of Tezos as one of their official state currency, which would immediately give Tezos favorable treatment in terms of financial regulation. Attempt negotiations to purchase or lease sovereign land."

Not only overly forward and ambitious, I also wonder: so what? Tezos is the official currency in some non-important-obscure country, and? I see no major gain in this, simply a non-sequitur from their premises.

In any case, it does show they are not merely after fiat. They clearly want to be important in the scene, and this is a positive thing.

But I totally agree with that reddit about the governance problem. This is the main aspect of the coin, but there seems to be nothing much concrete to block the formation of cartels in Tezos network, even being their game-theoretical currency apparently very fun to play with. That's the major setback for me. What is the difference between chinese miners' cartels and high stakers' cartels? At least in the former case they put some economical activity in motion - being it for now electricity consuming, while the latter is just the old and well known state-of-affairs.

Yes I'll skip this ICO, there are plenty fishes in the pond. This dev doesn't care about the community, and they took too much in ICO, doesn't make sense to me. There are better ones out there.

Think twice..

There is no hard cap so this will continue and will generate unlimited tokens during this ICO round. Actually there is no escrow for this ICO but this team is looking legit and so many people will invest into this project.

I know.. the cap question was answered many times but..

What if there is a cap, lets say 10M, and no xtz price.
After collecting the whole btc sum of ICO investments, everyone gets his xtz proportionaly.
And the xtz price will be btc sum divided by 10M

Thanks for this information mate i really hoping to participate with this new project as we knew that even the ico isn't started yet there's a lots of speculations regarding to this project, and i think it will make a huge attention when the real development started. Will be saving this from now and will do save some btc to invest.

Thanks

when is the ico going to start

Friends this site is fake ?
Tezos ico has not started yet

The team isnt listening to the community. Having an uncapped ICO is not good for investors and I dont understand why is that so ? They look so greedy

I can agree with this, the idea is amazing and its had quite a bit of hype but they haven't really engaged the community very much.

They have Tim Draper, a billionaire involved in this project.

Somehow I think they will manage to survive without your $50 "investment".

Saw the date but no details. Anyone know how much fund they try to raise? What are the rate? escrow? detailed usage of the proceeds, plan for exchange etc etc. Given the activity of the thread, it seems that the devs are not really care about the community here.
