The problem with you reasoning (while holds some truth) is that you assume that our highest aim is 2000 BTC while it is not, it's the lowest. So if we get 20% more funds then that is true, those who sent in the last 20% will get much less. But the thing is, as events progress, interviews and promotions line up, last minute investors get ready, much more funds should be incoming, and the early bonuses will be just that early bird rewards, meaning little overall.

They haven't read our profile at the prestigious Smith and Crown read or heard other interviews, AMAs and other info to come. They haven't seen the source code released, the testnet launched, the beginnings of a community form around a more fair DPoS delegate system. This TEC is far from over, thinks always go slow after the initial rush, and you are right, our heavy early bonus structure enlarged that effect.

It's all about risk tolerance as Mike said. Those who take more risk, having their money tied up longer, will get more as they should.

Monthly.

A more full answer is here:-

The profits being distributed would the house profits from the vDice contracts. This is easily done by setting the houseAddress of those contracts to the profitContainer's address. The profits will come from across all of vDice's games. The current investment functions are unaffected, as tokenHolders receive house profits.

The way the profits are distributed is simply based upon the amount of tokens a token holder holds in proportion to the total supply, and the amount of profit that was in the profitContainer contract at the start of lock period. 

Therefore, if we assume that there are 1,000 total tokens, and a token holder owns 10 tokens (amounting to 1% ownership), and at the start of the current locking period, there was an exact balance of 100 ETH, when this token holder redeems their profits, they will receive 1% of the profits, or 1 ETH.

We will achieve the objectives listed above with the following architecture:

● Manual Coin Locking
a) Each token holder gets an amount of token proportional to the ETH they
deposit into the Crowdsale (ICO), in the ratio of:
- Week 1 = 1 : 130
- Week 2 = 1 : 120
- Weeks 3 & 4 = 1 : 100
   
4. Analysis

b) The profit from vDice is sent to the token contract and is accumulated in its balance.
c) The token contract can be in any one of these two states:
i. Unlocked: tokens are freely transferable, and profit cannot be withdrawn during this period of time. The length of unlocked time period will be decided at contract
deployment: e.g 3 weeks.

ii. Locked: tokens cannot be transferred. Each token holder can withdraw their profit share only during this period of time. The profits which are not collected can be sent/withdrawn to the wallet contract. The length of the locked time period should be decided at contract deployment: e.g 1 week.

Both BTC & Lisk address generation are unresponsive at Ark.io, anyone encountered that?

Lisk price has the possibility of rising because a lot of it will go off the market due to the large bonus.  When you pull hundreds of thousands, or millions, of LISK out of circulation (for a very long time) you decrease the supply which can easily result in higher future prices. Quite simple.

Because that's what happens if you take up to 22% of the total coin count off the market.

Why not just let people have fun?  are you allergic to it?

It is better to buy lisk now, than buy it almost at the end of TEC. So the people that are investing in ARK today, tomorrow etc, will have to put less money in to get the same amount of lisk.

edit: buying lisk now and buying ark now has two major advantages:

1 - Lisk price is lower than at the end of TEC
2 - 120% bonus
