Wow, I see a lot of plans and activity with this coin.  

LISK definitely going to become coin of the year, and
amazing new technology.

EDIT: as I say, Bleutrade probably going to add Lisk
right after launch:

Is the signature campaign giveaway only for full, senior, hero, and legendary members? Most of those members are already in long running signature campaigns and won't want to lose their spots. Most of the signature campaigns with good payouts are now full and it can take months to get back in for someone who loses his spot.

I have red the whole Thread so far and i like what i see , i am in and updated sig.

Welcome on board of the Lisk train.

Where are the ICO details? From the OP it starts in a few days, but no info yet? Will you guys have a forum member escrow or an exchange?

Thanks, I have updated my signature, but I can't fit the whole full member signature in. I trimmed it down and only have 11 spare characters left after putting the link in.  Is my signature OK to register for the giveaway or should I change something in it?

If it's hard to find the ICO details I will update the OP today. You can find all information on our blog.

It's ok. If it's possible make it bold.

Thank you very much.

My team and I have been working on an exchange and we're definitely considering adding LISK into the exchange.

Lisk vs Eth:

Vote Now!

Why not build the exchange as a dapp and trustless? This would directly be a huge USP and would catapult you to the top of decentralized exchanges over night.

Won't they need Lisk to start buying Lisk then? Haha
Yes it would be great indeed though, I may start a project like that right after I finish Dust

Which is after I finish understanding the app's code

Yes, but you could also implement a custom token.

However the best is of course to use x LISK for one transfer. This will create a big incentive for the sidechain forgers and will probably make you LISK rich if the exchange gets popular.

Where is the signature for Members?

Thank you.

Thank you.

We didn't prepare one for each rank group. Please edit the "Full Member" signature until it fits.

What would be the ico price of LISK in terms of BITCOIN & ETHEREUM?

Is that already possible now?

Yes, I was thinking of that too. I for one would rather use Lisk itself..
I've got many ideas which I intend to develop on once I finish Dust and move on to new DApps on Lisk

Grüßle!

[Victorius]

Im in. Sidechains are future. Customability and freedom is more than celebrity developer.

It's not possible to calculate this ahead. Please read our ICO blog posts.

Yes, that would be already possible now. However, such a dapp is a lot of work. So it's not a matter of hours to program this.

Looks interesting.  Javascript development reminds me of NXT

JavaScript is not the same as Java.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript

[Forrest01]

As I understand it, the fact that a) Lisk uses Javascript for DAPP development and b) Lisk DAPPS will each run on their own sidechain, are 2 great advantages of Lisk over Ethereum.  Are there other advantages?  And to be fair and balanced, what about disadvantages of Lisk vs. Ethereum?

Also, are DAPP sidechains secured by the Lisk network, or do the sidechains need to have their own block signers?

Thanks in advance.  Very exciting project!

Advantages:

- Lisk offers a whole package for dapps, i.e. frontend and backend. That means you also have a decentralized hosted frontend of the dapp instead of accessing it through a centralized server which is often the case at Ethereum. (see: Gnosis & Augur)

- Not so sure about Ethereum here, but Lisk runs on all devices. On a 9$ C.H.I.P. or a Raspberry Pi. And this is enough to secure Lisk AND several sidechains! I also had it running on a 64MB VPS once.

- Our client, I hope you saw it. In comparison to Ethereum we have a GUI developed and maintained by the core team. It will always have the latest features and is really simple to use.

- Inbuilt Dapp Store which lists all available dapps on the network and will be enhanced greatly in the future.


Differences:

- While Ethereum is a smart contract platform, Lisk is a dapp platform. That means at Ethereum you can only develop single smart contracts which costs real ETH for every step, and you need to combine several contracts to form one dapp.

- You can only develop the dapp backend on Ethereum, on Lisk you can develop the whole package (see above) of frontend and backend.


Disadvantages:

- At Lisk you can't develop smart contracts which are always being performed by all miners on the network.

- Headstart of Ethereum and we don't have a Vitalik.

One other question.  Have you secured any exchanges for Lisk to trade on after launch?  Thanks.

We are public since two weeks and have generated quite a buzz already. I'm sure we will be listed on several ones soon after the launch. We will actively pursue this 1-2 weeks into the ICO.

To name a few we definitely will contact:

- Poloniex
- Bittrex
- BTC38

Very interesting and useful post. Thanks for this info, Max.
Also it is clear to everyone that you are doing a great job in answering each and every question with merit. Appreciate the effort.

So I did my research. Fundamentals are solid. Looking forward to updates, and will probably participate in ICO.
