Beta Updates
The Beta phase is starting today and the beta test server has been up at points.
Some technical issues are being worked on and the team is hard at work trying to get the Beta back up and running for testing.
This is our primary focus right now and we will continue to update you in this thread.
Please keep in mind this is a Beta and a Test net and issues will arise. That is why we conduct a beta. Neither the escrow agents, or our team will allow a single penny to be distributed without a working, stable, and feature rich Crypti.
Escrow / Pre-Sale
Our team and Maxmint are still working out the details of the escrow to ensure that everything will be as easy as possible and as secure as possible for investors.
That being said, as SyRenity mentioned, the date will be pushed back in order to ensure everything is setup properly.
I know a lot of you are anxiously awaiting and want to invest and we greatly appreciate your support!
Our major goal today was to get the beta and test net out there so we could start fixing bugs and testing the web wallet.
The Escrow will be available as soon as Maxmint and our team feel comfortable starting it.
Please note, the bonus 30% will start on whatever day we actually launch escrow. So everyone will still have the opportunity to invest at the earliest stage and bonus level.
Items in Review
There are still several issues that the community continues to raise and that we want to re-address.
Here are some of the issues you have voiced that we are reviewing internally as well as some of our own:
- 1% transaction fee is too high.
- 1% transaction fee for non-merchant trades is too high.
- Having no cap on investments will hurt Crypti
- The development team has no motivation to stay with the coin and will dump!
- Having a NXT based Escrow would be beneficial
- Update official Crypti website. (We know it's out of date!)
- Finalize escrow details with Maxmint
- Decide on a final Ticker for Crypti
These are just some of the things our internal teams are debating. This is in addition to all of the work being done by our programmers to get the client and nodes up and running for the test net.
I am not saying that we are 100% changing all of these aspects, but these are items we have open for review and are considering adjustments to.
A Couple Questions?
I would like to pose a couple questions to you guys!
- Do you have any awesome ideas for a ticker for Crypti?
- Do you think that a 0.5% transaction fee would be better? Or would everyone be more in favor of a set transaction fee, such as 1 Crypti per X amount sent?
- If you did want us to institute a cap on the IPO, what kind of cap? Total BTC raised? Amount per person?
- If we were to institute vesting for the 15% developer payments, would this help? What kind of mechanism would be best? Embedding in block chain or escrow?
This last question is something I am personally throwing out there and is not representative of the entire team or something that is necessarily being introduced. Just a question I was interested in hearing your thoughts on. As a community, would you be in favor of instituting a 1 or 5 Crypti per block inflationary distribution? For instance the network would generate somewhere from 1 to 5 new coins each block to ensure that each and every block forged would contain at least a 1 Crypti reward? This would create an inflationary aspect to the coin that would increase the amount in circulation as we go, but that isn't completely unheard of. It would however ensure that every time a network contributor forged a block they would get something in return. This is something I just have been thinking about and was wondering what the communities thoughts were?
In Closing
Thank you to everyone for sticking with us and being patient. I promise you we will not launch until Crypti is ready and we are listening to every comment, criticism, and the really great ideas you guys have, so please, keep em comin!
I look forward to hearing your responses to the questions posed!
