No offense was taken. But it's OK.

Probably yes, probably no, but ask a Decent representative or your crystal ball if you want a glimpse in the future.

P.S. My "bullshit" formula did not help you. Get some help elsewhere. With all due respect.

If by "investors", you mean ICO buyers in a strict sense, check the formula in the fourth comment above yours. That's how I could formalize the distribution, though such formalization still needs to be confirmed by a representative. With that formula, you will just have to replace T and S by .7DCT and .5DCT respectively in order to find what the total supply should be if buyers were to be distributed 50% of it.

To answer your question: For investors to get exactly 50% of the total supply (bar bounties, marketing and mining rewards), the total supply should amount precisely to 34 482 758.6. Since that number depends on tokens sold, one can only estimate. 

Let S be the token sale amount and T a variable that represents 70% of all DCT tokens. In detail, we have:


S sets the value of the variable T:
[...] And that of all DCT tokens: QED

Buyers will drive the numbers. We will know them for sure after ICO (except for those of the Bounty Program & Pre-Software Marketing). So far, we know that:


After the launch of the final release of DECENT Network, tokens will be issued according to the Software Sale results. DCT sold in the September Software sale will be 70% of the total DCT distributed. Part of this will be also pre-mine funds that will be distributed in following way:

10% for the DECENT Foundation
2% for the Investment Fund
1,000,000 DCT for DECENT Bounty program
3,000,000 DCT for Pre-software marketing

Meaning:



Hope that helps.

Interesting question. I assumed it was 00:00 - 23:59 on September 10. A Decent representative should clarify this. Anyway, they have a countdown clock on http://sale.decent.ch/.

As far as I understand it, MaidSafe is about changing the way current Internet functions, making it serverless (decentralizing the whole Internet; new protocol) while Decent is about media distribution, press, video, etc. (content decentralization).  

That makes two of us. Hope the project will succeed.

I've just noticed I have not been yet accepted in the list. End of ICO is nearing, so I wanted to know.

How much time does someone need to wait in order to be accepted in the signature list?

This part clarifies everything. Thanks. It might be helpful to put it on OP to take away doubts and confusion.

You are right, something about the coin issuance is a bit confusing.

Quoting OP: DCT sold in the September Software sale will be 70% of the total DCT distributed. Part of this will be also pre-mine funds that will be distributed in following way [...]

"This" in "Part of this" is an anaphor referring back to the predicate phrase "70% of the total DCT distributed", to be grammatically correct. I think the OP editor meant it to refer to the prepositional phrase subpart "total DCT distributed". This error is a case of unclear pronoun reference (ungrammatical in formal English) and is the reason why people are so confused, and rightly so.

The phrase "Part of this" would be better replaced by something like "The remaining 30%". No need to add the phrase "will be also premine funds that" as it is totally redundant here. Everyone knows the 70% will be a premine, much as they do the 30% since neither PoS nor PoW was mentioned anywhere on the OP. My 2 DCT.

I have just read a few comments back and indeed it would seem that trading should start in Q1 2017.

Signed up to the Sig Campaign. Hope it's not too late. Just heard about this project.

Any plan to have BRX on Polo?

.... And the TX ID of burned BRX just like it was done for BRK too.

Dev forgot to put in the new BRX supply on OP. Still said 12.5 M.

Yes, you are probably right. Was just expressing a thought on this.

This makes me wonder, is trumpcoin presently making crypto great again? or is it just now a SuperPAC coin contributing to making America great again, in the sense of supporting a "free" presidential candidate? "Presently" as in before Teth token release. "Free" as in free from lobbyists. I think the book, above all things, should emphasize the fact that Trumpcoin is the first SuperPAC coin behind a very strong candidate -- what it is currently doing being more important than what it plans to do in the future.

With such title, I think adding a tagline might be too much. I mean "Making Crypto Great Again" already looks like a tagline, doesn't it?
