IOTA Crowdsale

[Tobo]

Yes i am sure.
some investors sent multiple transactions from the same address.
I count unique addresses and not transactions.

Gotcha, thanks!

There is a boy who send 10 000 JINN, which is like 63BTC https://www.mynxt.info/transaction/12896754420028738317
JINN whales really JINN 

[rlh]

My guess is that is James (JL777) cause he does that type of thing.  It's been a looooooong time since I've paid attention to his escapades.  Wonder what he's up to these days within SuperNet.

Good catch. Incredible! I have just 10 Jinn - and keep them of course!

I wanna to share some of my thoughts.

First of all I don't feel anything about this whale, cause he/she really buy JINN tokens, thus support Triangle and development of JINN hardware CPU.

Secondly, IOTA may be the only "altcoin" which can survive in long term (5 - 10 years) cause it's planned to be preinstalled on JINN CPU and today competition is so crazy, that I'm not sure that even Ethereum will survive. The current trend is private blockchains, like a bank which develop or buy private blockchain tech for itself and don't care about Bitcoin. If IOTA indeed will become the standard IoT ledger - we win.

Thirdly, I have no doubt that in 5 - 10 years CIA/NSA/IBM will get its first, very very expansive quantum computer - just to crack other countries intelligence stuff. I don't want to store my money in Bitcoin in this case.

I was fairly heavily invested in Ethereum and still am. And I STILL think that iota carries more potential.

http://collect.iotatoken.com/ is online now!

[WorldCoiner]

Yeah sorry, I just see this:
Step 1

Open this link
Step 2

Disconnect from the internet (important!)
Step 3

Type in your secret password (keep this secret!) and save the address that will be generated. The password can only consist of latin characters in lower case and the digit '9'. We highly recommend that you store these locally on paper or in something like KeePass to ensure that it's not lost or compromised.
Step 4

Connect to the internet again and type the address that you just generated into the form below. Hit 'Send' to get the amount of satoshis to transfer in order to verify your ownership.
Step 5

Transfer the amount as instructed in the previous step to 1G8hh3bHMMhZSATwisBVbGFSYBKK3Suib8 from the same address that you purchased IOTA from.

And thought it´s already working now.

[iotatoken]

It is indeed functional now, except for a couple HTML bugs (Button not working and link appearing white against light grey background) that will be fixed a bit later tonight as another task that required attention came up.

But yes you can follow the instructions now and begin collecting.

[Come-from-Beyond]

You might have made us jump the gun, WorldCoiner!   

...blank page (i.e. no satoshis) @ http://188.138.57.93/ac after submitting my IOTA address... 

Try again. The very first submission got an incorrect amount to send (fractions of satoshis), so we removed it.

Hm, I expected that "submit" -> "submission" transformation was correct but googling for the latter gave me links to 50 shades of grey...

Begin collecting officially? Or simbolically, or testnet?

I think you shouldnt tell anyone to start collecting without doing it in an official way. This gives a very unprofessional perception, as no one knows when people can start doing it, until when, how Jinn donators can recollect, should anyone really send real btc even if its a small amount for a testnet?, web with bugs still, etc.. There is nowhere to find all the conditions and instructions on collection.

Marketing-wise this gives a very bad image, of doing things as they come without planning.

[Come-from-Beyond]

If I copy-paste http://188.138.57.93/ac into the browser, I see three (3) submissions so far.

Did you got the amount to send?

PS: Ah, so "submission" is a correct word in our context.

There is only one collecting if I read the sale conditions correctly. You can think that it's symbolical to praise god Crom.

Disagree. Everything we've said is happening like we said it. Website went up on the 22nd, as planned, it is functional and everyone can start collecting. The collection process itself is no big 'marketing happening', you can't DO anything with IOTA yet, and you got 90 days to collect it, so collect it whenever you feel like it.

[Come-from-Beyond]

Oops...   I was also sending the checkpointing key...  lol  

Don't use old program for key generation, only that link should be used if you want your iotas to be accessible after the launch.

I think Triangle should spend at least a bitcoin in someone advising marketing and giving a good image. It wont hurt the technical development and it will help the project overall.
Im pretty sure its a disaster telling the people to start collecting in forum post, a buggy website, without knowing if its testnet or not, until when they can do it, not having a reference page explaining what digits are allowed for the keypass (everyone will get notifications of digits being changed because everyone will use other numbers than 9 and symbols), but some posts randomly distributed in IOTA threads, and a long etcetera i dont want to think about because of how obvious it is...

What happens if someone generates an address whose pass has been modified for having numbers, and sends the btc amount to claim IOTAs? I guess those IOTAs will be linked to a IOTA address no one has the pass to access.

Why have we spent so much time on sale conditions if noone read them...

I can't take you seriously with these thinly veiled pathetic attempts at insults. If you follow our instructions, like we laid them from day 1, like is also explained on the website, you wont have a problem. So tired of people like you.

[50cent_rapper]

I guess rdanneskjoldr is not trolling.
Just write instruction for average user like you would write for your granny.
