I have noticed a lot of people are anxiously awaiting an announcement on the exact time for the launch. I am sorry I haven't been on the thread as much as normal (or nearly as much as I would like!). I typically try to post updates whenever I can and answer questions but my day job has me living in another city for 6 weeks doing business that leaves me very little spare time. What little I have is going towards working on the Foundation, the nomination process for Board members (once we launch the Foundation), and all of the Blog updates you have seen.

Please keep in mind that there are a lot of moving parts to this process and as someone mentioned, we are all in different time zones from one another and BTER which makes communication sometimes take longer than we would hope. We are currently working on finalizing a launch date and time and will get you the information as soon as we possibly can. I know you are all anxious, we are too! It won't be hours and we won't surprise ninja launch it in the middle of the night. We want to give enough notice for Maxmint buyers to transfer to BTER so that will be the deciding factor at this point. Our goal is to announce the finalized date and time tomorrow once we have consensus responses from our team and BTER.

Thank you for being patient as we work out all of the details!

Could you guys maybe remove the poll, since the tickers has already been chosen.

Cheers

there should be a countdown.

Yes, I thought it a matter of a few hours.

Because it is only fair that those that didn't use BTER for escrow get the same chance to trade as everyone else. If this was all announced ahead of time, then fine.

I really think this is a huge mistake, and the devs should have just said, WAIT 12 DAYS people. If you need your BTC to make rent, you shouldn't have used it in the IPO.

Watch their twitter feed.

Actually I do, but it should be possible to give a rough timeframe instead of saying SOON, VERY SOON and SOONISH over and over. After the whole complaining, suddenly it was possible to say " as few days".

I bet I wasn't the only one who thought this launch might even be tonight...

There are some serious time zone differences between China and Colorado and Western Russia.  I doubt if there is much overlap in work hours, so communication has to be done after work hours for someone, or answered the next day.

If you ever had to deal with employees or customers that were 10 time zones away, you would understand.

And that's totally understandable. Few days don't make any difference. I just didn't like the idea of keeping everybody waiting because of 5-10 slowpokes.

Again, it's not only the Maxmint buyers, it also Bter readiness and over-cap processing.
Also as Bter distributed the XCR's just today, we want to make sure all is working probably, and buyers had a chance to double-check their balances with the ledger as well.

Please note that we informed the community before, that an exact early-trading date and time will be announced onwards.


We actually do try to avoid such ambiguity in our posts, with the blog becoming the official announcement channel now.
If somewhere we did used such language and caused you to feel some uncertainty, I apologize for that.

You see, that was what I was looking for.

Couple of days =/= soon, very soon , soonish

Anyway, now my mind can atleast rest..

A couple of days? They've chosen escrow option instead of Bter, it was their choice and it's their problems. Why do 450 people have to wait for those few fellows?

Sure, but they said nowhere that it depends on bter.

Anyway, I got the feeling that the communication is poor, but maybe it is just me..

We want to make sure everything is ready on Bter side, over-caps are refunded, and Maxmint buyers had the opportunity to transfer their stakes to Bter, hence it will be couple of days.

Devs can't piss Bter off by emailing them every hour asking when they're starting trading. And Bter have lots of things to take care except Crypti to keep devs updated every 30 minutes.

If you run a company that collected nearly half a million USD you'd understand it 

Why not communitcate this?

If I run a company that just collected nearly half a million USD, I'd try to post accurate statements and not words like soon , soonish and very soon. People don't like that and might get aggressive...

any guidance at all?  is it hours?  or days?  no rush, just curious.

As mentioned before, we will post a date and time for Crypti early-trade start onwards.

Devs do not manage Bter so they do not know when trading starts. When/if Bter share with them this information they'll let us know.
