Is it a ethereum fork?

No.

Lisk is a fork of Crypti, aimed at becoming a better alternative to Ethereum.

Hey Lisk Team some questions if you dont mind,

cause i pref to be good informed before i make a investment

I heared you all worked for the Crypti team and choose another way  after the plain version was done (out of diffrent opinion where crypti should be heading) right ?

Or is this more like a restart of crypti with a new funding to make it better and more solid ?

After Lisk is done , just like crypti will you keep working on Lisk , with for example building Dapps work on community projects ?
cause the way crypti is beeing left now make me worried a little for future case.

Good luck devs, hope to hear some response

Hey Mrboot, don't worry. It's a good question.

Yes, we left Crypti because we weren't happy with the progress being made and the direction some people wanted to take. Olivier and I are both hard workers, who want to push the platform further. We don't want to rely on another platform like Bitcoin, we want to build our own one.

Lisk is software. It can always get more features or become better. I'm very sure that there will never be a moment at which we think "Lisk is done".

Once Lisk is at a point at which it goes swimmingly, has a great feature-set, many dapp libraries and the most easiest client in the whole crypto-scene, we want to make our own decentralized applications. Personally, I want to get deeper into the blockchain-based Internet of Things area.

My ultimate long-term goal is to build an awesome dapp platform, for which I can develop dapps myself for many years.


That means you can be sure that we both support Lisk for a long time. If you have the time, just head to https://lisk.chat/ and have a quick chat with me.

Signed up for the newsletter and followed on twitter. Nice looking project !

How much money are you hoping to raise

[ArpFlush]

Intriguing. I'll keep my eyes on this the coming days. What's with that LISK sig btw 

[Splatters]

Is there a minimum BTC quantity you need to rise to consider the project a success, and there's quantity of btc where less you won't keep working with this project?

[peter378]

I changed my sig to the lisk signature. The devs will probably get a huge quantity of btc and it's not likely they will get so little that they refuse to keep working on the project. The testnet's up and running to show everyone the software and that shows how hard they already worked on the project.

[LiskHQ]

I don't want to give any concrete number, as I will always be wrong here. But we are easily looking for several hundred BTC.

You can insert the Lisk signature into your Bitcointalk signature and later on earn a bounty for that.

The success won't be determined by how much we can collect, but where we are in 12 months. Regarding your second question, no there isn't. We will keep pushing forward.

We see this as more of a relaunch of Crypti. We did have an alternate plan of doing an ICO for porting Crypti to run as a sidechain of Bitcoin in parallel with continued Crypti development but have put that on hold. At this point, the Founders of Crypti support the Lisk relaunch, and encourage and advise holders of XCR to convert over to Lisk.

I don't think you need to have any concern over Max and Olivier leaving the Lisk project in the future. They have been very dedicated and hard working on Crypti from the start, and have really stuck with it.

Crypti is not really being left, but is continuing on as Lisk with the full consensus and agreement among Crypti Founders and Lisk team members.

I agree. We can show the Bitcointalk signatures because there is no conflict of privacy in this case.

So 85 million coins will be sold in the ico.

When i invest 1 btc and some other person also 1 btc, that will mean that i will get 42.5 Million Lisk and the other Person also 42.5 Million Lisk?

Or in other words, when i invest 1000 btc and the other person 1 btc i will get 84.915 Million Lisk, right?

Is there a limit to invest?

There won't be a fixed limit which can be announced before. If we see after the ICO that an individual would end up with over 20% of all LISK, we will contact him and explain the case to him in private. We (or our escrow partner) will then transfer him the excessive BTC back. However, to be over 20% one would probably need to exchange over 100 BTC minimum.
