time to buy some xcr 4 ICO

now price is @750sat (ICO price will be 1300 (1105 sat to eql bonuses (15%) for BTC))
Is it set in stone that 1 XCR will be exchanged or swapped for 1300Sat?

In our ICO, yes. However we advise to exchange some of your BTC or ETH as well, in order to have usable funds for Lisk.

Can you give me a plausible reason to switch from Crypti to Lisk, something like a future prospect?

Hello s0nix,
You can read our approach and intentions in the blog post Lisk - A new approach. Regarding future prospects you can take a look at our current roadmap.


How are the stakes recieved, and is a google doc with the names made?

Hello LitcoinCollector,
Once a week we will collect all Twitter followers, Facebook likes, Newsletter subscribers etc. and will insert them in a Google sheet. Due to privacy reasons we won't publish the lists, but you can rest assured to be on the lists if you did everything right.

Once the ICO is over and the mainnet is launched, we will contact you on the social networks in private. We will then ask you for your LISK address and send the bounty to it. Depending on the amount of people, we might create a script for this. We will see. Smiley



Awesome. Thank you very much, I will distribute it through our channels today. Smiley


Signature added. Glad to be onboard!  Grin
Also as you have a history with NXT please consider to adding a NXT swap to your ICO as i think you will get a strong interest.

We will think about it. Honestly, we don't want to accept too many currencies because this makes the whole process much more complicated. Give us a few days to discuss this. Smiley

Promoting Lisk within the Nxt community is a very good idea. Personally, I thought we could deliver a Dapp Store plugin for the Nxt community.


This needs to be implemented before going live. I have been a strong supporter of knowing more about delegates than just a username. As it is, you can only place a checkmark on a username and vote.

Also, this information should be view able when placing delegate votes.  I would like to know more about the user, name? address? e-mail? btt username? twitter? facebook? personal website? commercial website? There should be some record keeping of who is running which delegate.

I agree. We will see what we can do here, this will definitely be implemented. I just can't say if we can fit it into our schedule before the ICO. Still much things left to do. Smiley


Is there any way to ensure/avoid multiple delegates being set by a single person or an organization?
We have the example of Olivier's 36 delegates in Crypti and there were talks about possiblility of 51% attack if a group of others delegates stopped forging.

Also the blog mentions Delegates will buy more LISK to have more voting power to receive the rewards - does this not encourage hoarding of coins? which seem to be against one of the positives of DPoS system compared to PoS which encourages hoarding instead.

You vote for the delegates. You make sure that you don't vote multiple times for a single person. As Bigcabrito pointed out, we need to implement the option to add more information about the delegates within the client.

Some will hold, others will spend. A crypto-currency needs hoarders for the price to go up. I think there will always be some investors trying to get as many LISK as possible. They have the biggest incentive to secure the network and will keep it running forever. So there are not only negative aspects about them. In my opinion the majority however will spend LISK on the dapps which will be developed. Smiley

Lisk Investment Charts

I'm the initial Crypti investor that kick-started the whole project financially back at 2014....I hope [Lisk fork] ICO funds be enough and let do a really great job to bring the [JavaScript sidechain / dapp] platform to the world. We in Crypti pushed on development and did a great job having a great platform as a result. Unfortunately no money left for marketing and further development. And for me personally Lisk is the same project with the same idea we wanted bring to the world. For me nothing changed. Same platform which can become more powerful with the new [Lisk fork] ICO....

I suggest everyone to treat this as second funding round what is are very common in start-ups.

How many Lisk you will get for every Crypti you donate (Ownership dilution / concentration):
  
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GwWKK7bpjYTxtQRIq_l2xiKI9rEOpTU1oTt0q3C6Mc8/edit#gid=763738405
  
What Satoshi price you will pay for one Lisk with the Bitcoin you donate (Logical Lisk starting price at exchanges):

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q2MJ25_bK5Yi60FYohYCUEkujUtL5c0P1dOdlDMPMBI/edit#gid=763738405

Note : 15% to 10% bonus for early BTC donation is ignored in these spreadsheets!

Crypti folks:

Note that if your ownership is diluted (less genesis Lisk than Crypti donated), the price of the Lisk you hold goes up to compensate.  The net value of your holdings is unchanged at the end of the ICO.

Note that if your ownership is concentrated (more genesis Lisk than Crypti donated), the price of the Lisk you hold goes down to compensate.  The net value of your holdings is unchanged at the end of the ICO.

Bitcoin folks:

Welcome to the alternative to Etherium.  Why learn some weird new language like "Solidity" or "Serpent" to write smart contracts that will end up running on some giant Chinese server farms?  Program Lisk side chains and dapps in Javascript, run them on your own set of $35 Raspberry Pi 2 or $9 C.H.I.P. microcomputers, and... prepare for lift-off!  

(P.S. First JavaScript programmer to write a Lisk sports betting dapp becomes a billionaire).


This is great. I will add these charts to the OP and next ICO info blog post. Thank you Mal! 


why waiting 4 22nd February?

To build momentum. Smiley

1190  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LISK] Lisk | ICO | Decentralized Application & Sidechain Platform on: February 08, 2016, 04:19:26 PM

Bter and Poloniex are definitely on the top list for us, it isn't much work for them to add Lisk because it is API compatible to Crypti.


Bter is not longer a good choice. A lot of withrawproblems since months and no support.

You are right. Talks within the Chinese community also revealed that the exchange is slowly dying. We will definitely approach Bittrex as well, earlier this wasn't possible because they demand an open source. Smiley
1191  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LISK] Lisk | ICO | Decentralized Application & Sidechain Platform on: February 08, 2016, 03:51:40 PM
Just a small thought....
What, if XCR is raising up to 1500 or higher at LISK ICO?
I just try all to do that and hold all my XCR because - I´m in XCR months ago - because I believe in this new kind of DAPP project.
Of course... I´m not really a big Player. But I hold some more 100k XCR. (Hold it!)
I believe in XCR - and of course, before in you Max.
A hard-fork is not what i´m invested in.

So. if XCR will raise - Then what?
At which exchange LISK will be placed? I think, Poloniex will refuse.

Because: Yesterday, Poloniex admonished me to write about LISK in Trollbox.
And I only wrote: "Now it´s official - LISK IPO accept XCR for 1300 Satoshis/Unit. So they, who are interested into LISK ICO, would makea good deal at this price!"

So - at which excanges, LISK will be listed after ICO? Same Excanges like XCR? (Polo, BTer).

And my second question: If you accept XCR for ICO and it ist "dead money - "You opinion" - What will you do with all the earned XCR after LISK ICO?

Thanks - Please keep care of the German Thread.


Hey Borpf, thanks.

At this point we can't say which exchanges are going to support Lisk. We have to look around at a later point. Bter and Poloniex are definitely on the top list for us, it isn't much work for them to add Lisk because it is API compatible to Crypti.

We will hold onto the XCR, you never know what will happen with XCR. Maybe there will be a small market after our ICO launch, so we can sell some. Smiley
1192  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LISK] Lisk | ICO | Decentralized Application & Sidechain Platform on: February 08, 2016, 09:13:50 AM
Hi, everyone!

I'm the initial Crypti investor that kick-started the whole project financially back at 2014. I understand those who is negative for the situation.
Well yes, Max could warn us about his plans, he is not obliged to do it. The system open source and platform developed exactly for people to use at their own, to build new projects, platforms and etc. Everyone from community, holders and founders have this right. If not Max, sooner or later it could be someone from you. But honestly I'm very happy that Max did it first. He have great experience, he is a real hard-working man, very delegated to job. I know him personally, met him in Germany, he is a very bright and smart guy. I'm sure he will spread Lisk to whole blockcain world by pushing more on pr and marketing.
I hope ICO funds be enough and let do a really great job to bring the platform to the world. We in Crypti pushed on development and did a great job having a great platform as a result. Unfortunately no money left for marketing and further development. And for me personally Lisk is the same project with the same idea we wanted bring to the world. For me nothing changed. Same platform which can become more powerful with the new ICO.
Especially I'm more calm and confident in success knowing that Max is the one who will continue our great job. That's why I and our team including Boris support Max and wish him success. Also no need represent Oliver, everyone of you seen his work. Guys, wish you Good Luck! I appreciate that you still believe in idea we wanted bring to the world.

I suggest everyone to treat this as second funding round what is are very common in start-ups.

Thank you. Smiley


Vera was paid in full for her work in advance, but then flaked out when she "suddenly and without warning went into labor and had a baby".  We took a loss on that, as well as a delay and weeks to findout what was going on.

I don't care what you tell about me, but please don't spread lies about other hard working people at Crypti. Vera was our front-end developer until January 2016 and developed our beautiful client UI. She wasn't pregnant yet and even if, it would be awesome. Smiley

Who you are talking about is Christine from December 2014 / January 2015. She got a baby and wasn't able to continue working for Crypti. She communicated it poorly and a bit too late, but that's history.  


Pretty excited to start developing dApps for Lisk.

Was great speaking to you in Skype! I hope you will develop great decentralized applications. It sounded very promising. Smiley


Hi everybody!
I'm glad to participate in LISK
Wish you goodluck

Thank you. Welcome to Lisk!

Yes, sure I'd like to translate the OP. I'll work on it tomorrow, and maybe I can post about Lisk on NewsBTC Philippines.

I'd love to help out in the ways I can.

Great, I will note it in the OP. If you want you can add me on Skype and we can talk about the NewsBTC article. There are some special bounties for news articles. Smiley

Just ask me for my Skype handle via PM.

Exactly. Thank you for the tweets Poly#Crypto, I'm retweeting them regularly. Smiley

Say, do you realize that your reward categories currently total to over 1,000,000 Lisk?  Maybe you need to drop the Facebook reward from 150K to 100K...
Yes, we do realize that. Currently there are only 20 Facebook likes, imagine once there are 300 in 10 weeks. Being early pays, but overall the money will be distributed to quite a lot of different people. Smiley

I'm not sure we are communicating yet.   You say Newsletter gets 0.20M, Facebook gets 0.15M, Twitter gets 0.20M, Sig gets 0.20M, Translations get 0.30M.  0.20+0.15+0.20+0.20+0.30 = 1.05M.  You say 1.00M Lisk is being set aside for rewards.  Where is the other 0.05M=50K Lisk coming from?

Another question.  During the ICO, would Lisk be willing to please post daily information on donations at a Google spreadsheet?

Oh! Strange, but yes you are right. We will correct the Facebook bounty to 100k, as it is the least popular option right now and the least important to us. Thank you Mal! Smiley

Sorry that this happened.

It's far better for people to participate with BTC and ETH so we have fundings we can work with. To have 3% more LISK won't benefit you, if the platform can't properly be developed and promoted.


We will disclose more information about how we accept ETH later.

Yes, of course. And for a small difference, it's probably not even worth the trouble for ICO buyers. Just an observation on current XCR prices and what the true value will be during the ICO. And also how it makes no sense at all for XCR people to dump their coins into the 700-900 range.

That's right. Maybe some XCR holders didn't see the news yet or simply don't want to participate. You never know. Smiley
1198  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LISK] Lisk | ICO | Decentralized Application & Sidechain Platform on: February 06, 2016, 06:33:07 PM
Okay, assuming I am reading things correctly on your blog, the first week btc bonus is 15%. So 15%, 10%, 5%. Not too bad for XCR people (actually expected it to be a bit worse for us).

That brings the true ICO equivalent to around 1130 sats (first week only), and increasing 5% the following two weeks, eventually hitting 1300. Seems fair to me.

For those currently selling their XCR then, they really shouldn't be dumping it at the < 1000 sat level. Assuming there is interest in this project, it'd make more sense for BTC people to buy up XCR and so long as it's less than 1130, and it's a better deal than paying in BTC.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm half-asleep as I look over the blog.

The one odd thing though is that you accept ETH too. How would that rate be calculated? Choosing a price there would be somewhat arbitrary.

It's far better for people to participate with BTC and ETH so we have fundings we can work with. To have 3% more LISK won't benefit you, if the platform can't properly be developed and promoted.


We will disclose more information about how we accept ETH later.

Lisk ICO Terms - Part I

As promised we will disclose first details about our Initial Coin Offering (ICO) today. We describe which crypto-currencies can be exchanged, how the distribution of the 100,000,000 LISK is, what our timeline looks like and what kind of bonuses participants can receive.


Read the full terms on our blog!

This faucet is currently running on a testnet.
All payouts are for testing purposes only.

i don't understand about this section in faucet site, can anyone explain ?

Sure, in crypto-currencies you usually differentiate between a mainnet and a testnet.

Testnet (test network):

The blockchain is maintained for testing purposes only and consists of only a handful of nodes. The use-cases for a testnet are:

- to check if everything is working fine.
- to let our users take a look at new features.
- to let our ICO participants see that we have enough knowledge to run, maintain and enhance Lisk.

We can reset the testnet at any point, because we are the only ones who are securing it.


Mainnet (main network):

This will be the real blockchain and network after the ICO. Here all LISK have a real value and many different persons are securing the network. At this point nobody can turn it off.
ahh ok thanks for the explanation , so the real blockchain will happen after ICO 

You are welcome. Yes, the real blockchain will be deployed after the ICO. Smiley
