if you have your password and your wallet, you still have your BTC. however you have not invested in the Breakout coin sale as of yet. We can help you complete your transaction. please pm or email.

Here is the answer to how much bitcoin is needed and how it will be used.  We need a minimum of 1000 BTC.  That would keep the coin going with adequate support.  A total collection of 7 to 15 thousand BTC would enable our planned delivery of 1) strong coin development and 2) demand growth by stimulating use and liquidity of BRO.  The more BTC collected in the ICO, the more the demand for the BRO will be reinforced by global marketing and coin refinements that keep it on the leading edge. Marketing and development funds will be spent in the best ways for BRO, as described in the offering, and have no logical upper bound.

That's well and good, as it would improve the likelihood that BRO's price would steadily rise as more people learn of and use the coin, and thus provides an unprecedented advantage to this coin. But as more BTC are collected, wouldn't the proportion of the 4.5m BRO each participant receives in the ICO be diminished? So, shouldn't participants be protected from such apparent dilution by a cap on the maximum BTC accepted?

If the ICO was a pie with a size limited by a cap, then each participant's piece would still be proportional to the BTC they put in -- except the size of the pie would be arbitrarily limited.  Since, as noted above, there is no logical upper bound on the amount that the coin can be promoted and kept on the leading edge, it would be counter-productive to specify a limit, for every ICO participant and future holder of BRO.  That would only constrain the benefit to them from higher potential appreciation and stability of BRO. A bigger ICO means a stronger BRO. And, if the value of the ICO pie is bigger and the piece for a participant is proportionately smaller, the value of the participant's position remains the same -- whatever he or she chooses to put in. However, the BRO everyone holds from a bigger ICO would be bolstered for the future.

yes, you will see something like this:

and it will be right there on the page when your buying.

there will be a counter on total BTC raised... just divide 4.5mm by that.

If thats the case, then I would suggest not investing in BRO ico. You have whats is called opportunity risk. Sounds like a good problem to have.   

Random drive-by, NEWLY created troll accounts will not be tolerated.  Legitimate questions will always be answered.

Please go to the Breakout Chain Thread Here

Brief Backstory

The thread below is the thread for a coin called "Brocoin" commissioned by "Breakout Coin", a coin company. Brocoin was never implemented, due to lack of funds. The original developer , Jay Berg,  was a hired consultant, and we were not able to keep him full-time. Jay moved on to a new exciting project,  Protoblock.com.

The Breakout Coin project hired a new developer, James Stroud, who completed a ground breaking coin, called "Breakout Chain", with help from, and features inspired by Jay's "Bergstake". Breakout Chain not only has a innovative staking mechanism, but is also a Proof-of-Work chain with many novel existing and planned features. Breakout Chain's features are designed to complement Breakout Coin's business model of seeding mass adoption by providing promotional funds to promising businesses.

Revolutionizing Cryptocurrency and Online Gaming






[/center]
Breakout Coin (BRO) puts the power in usersí hands, enabling ìperson-to-personî transactions without middlemen such as banks or credit cards. There is no five day processing wait, your account canít be frozen, and the digital coins can be sent virtually instantly with zero or low fees to Argentina, China, or wherever you want. Sending a BRO is simple and just like sending an email. BRO is Proof-of-Bergstake (PoB). PoB is a new and innovative solution to eliminate energy waste prevalent with current PoW mining.

Proof-of-Bergstake
There will be a one-to-one ratio of Bergstake for all ìvirginî coins. This will mark the first time a real distributed consensus has been reached via Proof-of-Stake, thanks to Bergstake.

ìPerpetual Virtual Mining Rigî
The more Bergstake you possess, the better your chances of signing the block and earning the block reward. Odds of earning the block reward for each block is tied to the proportion of Bergstake.

---

Proof-of-Bergstake to Solve Known Problems
Bergstake represents the right to sign blocks in cryptocurrency blockchains. For keeping the network safe, block signers receive reward, which can be transaction fees and/or new coins. Bergstake is different from classic coin-stake ñ it lasts forever and itís not transferable. The concept is a modified ìProof-of-Skillî, first described in the Satoshi Fantasy whitepaper by Jay Berg. While each coin is crafted, whether itís in the pre-mine giveaway or Proof-of-Work stage, the holder of those new coins automatically receives an equivalent amount of Bergstake. Even if the new coins are transferred away, the Bergstake remains. All Bergstake are recorded in the blockchain and owners maintain their private keys.

Proof-of-Bergstake is better understood as an alternative distributed consensus mechanism to the Bitcoin Proof-of-Work mining process. Bergstake solves known issues found in Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchains. Bergstake blockchains also have knowledge of alternative forks. This enables someone to present a ìProof-of-Double-Miningî which will destroy the Bergstake as well as its potential block reward. The threat of losing Bergstake and recent virgin coins is incentive to mine only the ìrealî blockchain. This core feature neutralizes the ìnothing-at-stakeî weakness found in PoS blockchains.

The algorithm that selects the next block-signer can be gamed in other PoS blockchains. The strategy is known as ìstake-grindingî or ìcostless simulationî, and it entails a nefarious type of ìminingî of block data intended just to generate a hash, which allows the signing of the next block. Since Bergstake is recognized in advance, a block-signer assignment algorithm that moderates grinding can be employed. A technique used frequently involves the use of the hash of two prior signers in order to select another signer; another technique entails the selection of N signers based on a pseudo-random number and a current signer.

Selecting cryptocurrencies is much like picking players in teams, limited by salary caps. Choose your coin lineup, selecting five Offense (up) and five Defense (down) from five categories based on key features. The games may be daily, weekly, 4-weeks, or longer. Your final score is the sum of your Teamís Playersí points at the end of the game period.

The cryptocurrency that changed the most in its group and in your anticipated direction earns five points; the second most earns three points, and the third earns two points. You will have picked three cryptos up and three down in each of five groups. †A perfect score would be (5+3+2) x 2 * 5 = 100 points. The lowest number of points would be zero. The game prize will †be shared across the Top 10 gamers.

The monitored cryptocurrency stats are equivalent to player stats in Fantasy Sports. To assure timeliness and transparency, data will be updated every 5 minutes and consistent with most coinmarketcap.com conventions.

good question regarding volatility and price movements. however i just want to point out you use of the term "p&d schemes".


a currency trading on an exchange does not really fit into the definition of a p&d scheme. even if this external exchange creates volatility, heavy trading, and brings in the  automated high-frequency trading bots, still this is all normal markets and not a p&d in any way. a p&d scheme is when false information and hype is used to pump a price for the purpose of selling at the higher prices. This is usually done during initial offerings of scam coins.

sometimes, a market can be manipulated to show a large spike up, only to crash back down. when looking at a huge spike in price at an exchange, make sure you look at the volume, low volume is an indication that there is no real buying, and price will drop back to where there is liquidity, as soon as sellers come in.

The announcement thread has been delayed due to technical issues regarding the development of the initial coin purchase process. Please continue the discussion on this pre-announcement thread.  Once technicals have been resolved, we will make the announcement with all the details and close this thread.

Thanks 1777sis! 

Thanks!!

yes. "breakoutcoins" on bitcointalk is a scammer.

There will be an announcement thread around Sept 20th to detail the Breakout Coin initial offering. The purchase window is tentatively scheduled for Oct 4- Oct 18

Coin launch, POW phase, will start shortly after ICO window closes, around Oct 18th.
