Sorry for not replying the original question  The GadgetToken will be pegged to 1 USD and it can be converted to FIAT or BTC. This is a must, otherwise the broadcasters won't be working on the Gadget network.

I don't "conveniently" ignore anything. Or use anything. I have no "convenience" here. And I did not calculate incorrectly, I did not see a "2" where there should have been a "4", that's all. And although the difference is significant, the basis of the argument remains exactly the same as of the validity of the point.

I also don't follow the acquisition trail of Jasmin and therefore I don't know what they buy. The point made was that, as opposed what was posted, the CANNOT buy "anyone". And, again, depending on who the employee is -and her level of confidence in you, of course- what he tells you can be anything from real to an exercise in absurdity.

My "business acumen" should be quite evident by now and if it is not apparent to you at this stage, even if I would have been a top executive at Goldman Sachs for 20 years -which I haven't- would make the slightest difference to you. "Convenient" enough?

It seems there is a consensus that the discount should be reinstated.

We will enable the discount now. For contracts which volume is at least 100 hours will be an additional 10 ores deposited for each 10 hour unit, that means a 100 hours volume contract will be entitled to 1,000 ores and GDC. Since there are 10 hours VICR contract exists, users who buy at least 10 VICR contracts will be receiving the extra 100 ores deposit. Numerically, that was the previous discount as well.

All due respect, I never said "hopefully you can get over it and still buy contracts". The future of the project isn't and shouldn't depend on the sell of VICR contracts.

You are absolutely right, you have indicated your support a long time ago which we really appreciate, it means a lot to the developers that you and others are interested in the IoT blockchain idea. I can't tell you what to do, but it would be great if you could keep your support and accept my apologies for the poor case handling, and then we can move on to make this coin a success. I am talking to many users and community members privately. I think if someone write then I should answer and then we talk about marketing, strategy, coin price and all kind of topics, but it doesn't mean we want to keep away any information from anybody.

Please put this unfortunate event in perspective if I may ask you, does the discount code really matter in the context of the opportunities we have here, that we have concrete, real world use cases for a digital currency and finally a digital alt currency would be used by business applications?

Now, you are asking to apply the discount. We received quite a few unhappy messages yesterday that do not apply the discount, the discount is unfair to supporters who invest smaller amount. It is really hard to know what is the better for everyone. I suggest the community vote about the discount code. If the majority of the community is comfortable with the code than we can reinstate it.

I am sorry for this, it was entirely my fault. Most of other team members are on holiday, I handle the majority of work on all fronts and I making mistakes which should never ever happen.
Regardless of my poor case handling, I can assure you, it was no intentional nor malicious insider info regarding to the discount code. The discount code has been decided a long time ago and when I discussed the marketing work with a community member, I asked the community member please help advertising the 100 hours contracts with the discount code. I assumed that all interested users who want to buy a 100 hours contract will be informed about the discount code by the community member who advertised the contacts.

I am very sorry for this poor communication, from now we will try to handle this better.

To be honest, i don't see why. probably because I really don't care about the 100 ores. First time i heard about this discount code was today afternoon. I didn't have any insider info. I am interested to see how this coin will turn out. my clients have been investing heavily in internet of things, I sent them the white paper last year December, check back this thread if you are interested to see. The reply was from my clients that they are very interested in decentralized Iot tech because of IBM doing similar tech and since they are asking update from me. that's why i am here, to learn more about IOT and be the first to hear if this tech is successful, not because of the discounted 100 ores.

thanks god, I feel better and will sleep better if we are cool   

I understand the 10% could make a difference, my day job is trading, but I trade very rarely with crypto. My side business is BTC mining and I am keeping or investing BTC rather selling it. Same with GDC, for that reason the extra 100 is indifferent to me right now..

everyone is getting the extra 100 ores who bought until yesterday and so it doesn't matter you knew it or not. the extra 100 is related to the 100 hours contract not the classcode any more. You are just unlucky because if you would bought yesterday until the 100 hours was active then you would get the 100 extra regardless of the code. I bought mine before they deactivated, I was lucky.
what I meant was about that doesn't matter the 100, if we can take this coin to USD 5 which was the original plan when they started then everyone will be happy even without the extra 100.

I definitely didn't say that i am a better supporter than you are, but if you got that impression from my words then sorry for offending you. Anyway, seriously, really that 100 ores matters when your decide whether you support a coin with your money or not?

no worries mate. supporters like myself who bought VICR bought it not because the 100 ores discount. i don't think it matters 900 or 1000 if someone really like the coin.
 

I thought you have heard about that like other users knew the existence of the classcode, but this cannot be an excuse for us. You are absolutely right we should communicate this better.

I am very sorry for not communicating that classcode clear and we will try to handle the communication better in the future.

Yes, it was a discount code, but it was terminated yesterday. If you bought 100 hours VICR without applying the classcode which entitled you to receive the +100 ores, then that is not an issue, because all 100 hours contracts receive the extra 100 ores. It's already processed, if you have an 100 hours contract you should have received the extra 100 ores. If you have a contract and you haven't received the extra 100 ores yet then please let us know in a PM and we will look into it. As I said, all 100 hours contracts are entitled to the total 1000 ores deposit.

The 1000 ores classcode was in place until yesterday, so yes, the information was correct then. Now it's not available and there is no additional ores for that particular classcode any more.

The 10 hours VICR, which was requested by most of interested users has been rolled out and all VICR receives 90 ores equally.

If you wish to get more than 10 hours, you just need to increase the quantity at the buy contract screen.

No, there won't be more VICR contracts. The streaming nodes will receive ores for streaming the video, but those ores will be at a later stage deposited once the VICR coins are gone and burned.

Yes, it will be a "max_sell_amount" field in the base contract and the system will stop accepting orders at 200k, and then no more coin will be issued until the 200k is burned.
