By the end of the Token Swap a voting mechanism will be set in place allowing COSS token holders to decide which action should be undertaken with the unsold tokens.

Note that the final amount of the tokens allocated to Developers, Staff, Strategic Partners, Operations, CAP (COSS Affiliate Program), Shareholders, Board of Directors and Advisory Board will be defined/adjusted upon the end of the Token Swap.

COSS token holders can propose their ideas in the #general thread on Slack here: https://join.slack.com/t/cosstokenswap/shared_invite/MjI0MTIyMzEzOTA4LTE1MDIyNDcwOTAtZDhjZmRjZGI2Zg. The COSS platform will continue to exist and develop no matter what the outcome of the Token Swap is.

Hmmm, I really liked the decission to let the token-holders vote for what to do with the unsold token, but to re-adjust (probably raise) the allocation for yourself afterwards seems a little fishy to me, except I misunderstood it, then please let me/us know. This decission a day earlier and I probably would wait a little more to invest.

That said, I don´t want to send critical comments, but lets think about an other idea, which - for us/investors - could be: "We decided to raise the allocated amount of COSS token by 50% to all investors." (as TenX did days before the ICO)
 
Why? You say 600 COSS/ETH was set when ETH was at 200$ and I understand it is hard to predict the right price for "now in X weeks/months" (so probably you already rose the $/COSS-price in your advantage already to make it safer)

That said you were calculating with 200$/600COSS = 0,33 $/COSS
Till now the ETH-price rose 50% what makes the COSS and the company-value 50% higher (300$/600COSS = 0,50$/COSS)
And in my humble opinion the ETH-price will raise further in the upcoming months, what will make our investment even more expensive, but this is another story all investors should be aware of before...

So if you want to attract new contributions and show up as a long-term-focussed project...
Buuut we know you are flexible guys, so please consider this or any customer-friendly idea before (or in the same ratio as) raising the allocation for Staff, Partners etc.


We will not RAISE the amount to ourselves, we will REDUCE. I like your suggestion on adding extra tokens to all contributors also. We will make that an option for voting aswell. We are open for all suggestions to make it as fair as possible.

Well this sounds better... Probably "will be defined/adjusted" just confused me into the wrong direction...looking forward for your decissions

Hi Lisk-friends... just a question (not sure if it´s the right place)

Aprox. 10 hours ago I did a withdrawal of some LSK (just a small amount first to check if it´s working, of course...) from my Polo-account (and confirmed the following email.

Yet it is still pending... do you know from experience how long it might take in total (or if its normal that Polo-LSK-withdrawal take this time)?

Thanks in advance

I like the project more and more, just started using Slack due to Coss-activity there and joined the slack-bounty of course... Wink

When there are questions about the project, it seems like (at least 1) COSS-member is online 24/7


Will you add/fill the Slack-section in the Google-Doc-sheet?

3148  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ICO WATCH: SALT LENDING on: August 09, 2017, 06:43:48 PM
I like the idea and will try to find out more about it.

For the moment I found this article not to bad: https://www.forbes.com/sites/rogeraitken/2017/05/19/disruptive-blockchain-backed-salt-loans-platform-in-launch-to-leverage-bitcoin-assets/#78aaf7d527cc
3149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO]COSS Token Swap on: August 09, 2017, 04:51:35 PM
lol, they're asking for about 100,000,000 USD, and they won't even burn the remaining tokens. I was excited about this, but seriously, this is asking way too much. Should've had a much lower cap.

I don't know where you got that number, but that's not true.

The Token Sale includes 130M Coss at a rate of 1 ETH=600 COSS, so that would mean a total cap of 216k eth, at current rate that's 67M, the rate was decided when ETH was 200$ so that is why dollar value has increased so much.

As to the unsold tokens, this is what happens to them:

All the remaining tokens that haven’t been sold after the ICO, will be paced into a vetted/audited Smart Contract serving as the COSS Charity Foundation. COSS currently partners with the biggest Charity Foundation in Romania named “Mereu Aproape” managed by one of the biggest Media Trusts in the country and supports a Malaysian entrepreneur David Wu collecting money to help the children with cancer. The “Mereu Aproape” Foundation and David have registered their accounts on COSS in order to collect charity donations in cryptocurrencies supported on the platform.
In the nearest future COSS will contribute to more charities by dropping its unsold Tokens left after the Token Swap. The unsold COSS Tokens will be placed into a Smart Contract Pool, accumulating revenues in various crypto as per the FAIR SHARE program. Every 6 months this wallet will release all the gains to help a specific charity case (or foundation) that will be announced publicly. All the funds will be transparent due to their placement on the Ethereum blockchain, and will be donated to a charity vetted by the Board of Directors of COSS.
The Smart Contract Codes and the Audit will be released after the Token Swap.

Your token sale isn't going well, 67 Million USD is a lot of money to ask. assume you collect only 20 Million USD (so far you collected less than 1 million), which is still a whole lot of money. It means that charity will get twice as much money from the dividends as all your ICO contributors combined. That's very generous of you, but that's not exactly good news for investors. You should put a cap on how much the will be given to charity, like 1 million COSS maximum. And then burn all other unsold tokens. Only then would it make sense to invest in your company. You have a good thing going on there, make it attractive for people to invest


You guys are absolutely right when we look at the numbers that way. We have done some internal discussions and came up with the following proposal: After the token sale is over we will create a voting mechanism, so the investors can vote how much of the unsold should be set aside for charity and how much should be burned.

Regardless of how many tokens we raise in the token sale, the platform is and will remain operational. Please note that we already have a working business, that is generating revenue. The scope of the token sale is to grow the platform to manage all the unapproached areas of cryptocurrencies adoption. The result of the token sale will only define the speed and the scale of the platform, not the existence.

Close to "perfect" and good to see how flexible/fast in making decisions you are (if it was not prepared already).

Thanks and I´m in.
3150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Do I need to verified my bittrex account ? on: August 09, 2017, 04:38:31 PM
Yes I think you need to verify your bittrex account because as I have discovered lately bittrex lowered down it's daily withdrawal rate and I think you need to verify some things so it will be increased instead of the 0.025 minimum daily withdrawal.
Stop with the fake information.You either are blind or a blatant signature poster.If you read the above thread,you could see OP already posted that they managed to create a legacy account without having to submit any document verification,0.025 withdrawal limit is a lie,more like a joke.You don't have to fake the data if you can't find anything else to post for.

Not a lie at all, I just have the same problem.
Quote from: Bittrex Website
"DAILY WITHDRAWAL LIMIT: 0.025 BTC"
Must have been introduced in the past 2 months.

So now I have to update myself to Basic-Account what I actually don´t like. Not thinking about bad things, but I don´t want all juristications to get me movements to/from Bittrex if they want to have it...

Don´t know about the "legacy account"... somebody?

I just got 3 free Stratis at TheViralExchange for retweeting and liking their tweet.

Thank you so much for this!!!

How that? I mean is this appliable for anybody?

3152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO]COSS Token Swap ICO is LIVE on: August 09, 2017, 10:13:39 AM
@ColorlessK: many thanks for the detailed answers and I agree, giving the gains from the unsold coins to charity is a good thing.

Anyway I also have to agree with Isaaq, for investors it is no ideal solution, or do I (we) missed something ?

How long will the unsold coins be locked away?
If not "forever": What you intend to do with the unsold coins after the smart contract released them.
3153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO]COSS Token Swap ICO is LIVE on: August 09, 2017, 12:51:15 AM
from white paper

Warm wallet:
Warm wallets are stored on a totally separate server that has all the security measures to be
protected:  all  communication  ports  except  for  the  blockchain  synchronization  ones  are
blocked, no user has access to the server directly, the wallet's password is encrypted, etc.

Cold wallet:
Cold wallets are stored on air-gapped PCs in the COSS office in Singapore. These computers
have  no  internet  connection,  and  the  transactions  from  the  cold  wallets  are  processed
manually by our financial managers.
The majority of funds is stored in the cold wallets.

can COSS explain please? its not decentralize.

I wonder about the same (beside much lower traffic here on bitcointalk than I would have expected after reading the whitepaper)

Is it any possible to answer the question about centralization and what´ll happen to the unsold tokens?

Thanks in advance

I really like the effort you put into "your idea" but actually it seems like this project is dead before it begun... way to early for an ICO in my humble opinion. Good luck for this and your next project(s) though. Stay strong!

I just found out the ICO is held in few hours and will read the whitepaper tomorrow, but foremost I am wondering why it´s that silent in bitcointalk?
