It looks like LISK (IOU) price is gradually declining, although it could be a general thing currently in the market. It is a pity about the IOU because the IOU might just have taken the steam of the initial rise and decline usually seen with new coins. There is normally a quick rise and decline and then the price settles and then enters the development phase and is dependent on the development work. If development work is poor the price goes down further and if the development work is good then price will rise again. What is clear is that the IOU portion of the LISK money supply is insignificant to the total money supply and should not necessarily be seen as indicative of the price of the main supply of the real coin. This is because a small supply is very much sensitive to price movements especially in an environment where a lot of hype was created and people are impatient with anticipation. The real price could be much higher or much lower.

The next thing that will impact LISK is what will happen on launch day. If a significant portion of the 100m finds it way to the market without the corresponding demand the price will go down. If there is enough demand the ICO investors will exit at a profit and the new investors (and/or whales) will take over at the new floor and do their thing. Most people have a short term profit objective without necessarily worrying too much about what a coin is about as long as whatever the dev team and community does enhances the chances of their objective being met. The chances are therefore higher that a significant portion of the supply will go to market relatively quickly after launch because most holders with a short term profit objective will want to execute their strategy as quickly as possible at maximum profit. The ICO investor mix plays an important part. If the ICO mix were more big investors caring about the coin and future potential less coins will hit the market early on. If the mix were more day traders that would do anything to make a bitcoin or 2 they will exit as soon as they can make that 1 bitcoin and they will jump with joy. Chances are higher though based on statistics that the latter option is the case but not necessarily.

LISK holders must just hope that the wind was not taken out of its sails with the IOU thing and momentum negatively impacted so that that is not seen as the initial rise and decline of the coin. I hope for everyone that there will still be another one after the coin launches for real. However, imo, holding should be more long term for LISK and I hope there are many people with a long term objective in the ICO investor mix.

i imagine a number will sell a % of their stake to recover some of their buy money and then hold the rest.
i am holding.

buying at the start on bter will pay off, if you buy for $50cents and sell for $150cents, because i think no one will seriously sell under $100cents, not even whales.

Whales avoid unreliable exchanges like bloombit, yobit, c-cex or bter. If on the launch Lisk is not listed on the big exchanges, most likely whales won't take part so less high magnitude dumps.

i doubt OB will be as spectacularly successful as some think.

due to fact that its p2p  ..  wich like torrent etc, reveils the ip of the sellers store..  the seller needs to leave their computer running
to serve up their store.     i doubt profit tax evaders and drug dealers want the risk of being traced right back to their doorstep.

for this reason..   i foresee blockchain markets like SYS becoming big in the future.  for anyone smart.. Personal security is #1 priority.

i dont think OB is pushing btc up much if at all.  all the alts are red one day.. green the next. just how it goes.

as i said elsewhere, wallet would better be launched as soon as ICO distribution is done. what is happening in cases like iota or lisk is: distribution ... hype gap ... ... eventually, wallet launch.
notice how the IOUs are being negotiated at iota, similarly  (and, whenever I complain about it at iota's thread, my posts get deleted)
yobit's move was very smart, even though it's not at all good from the ICO buyer's perspective. (lisk and iota holder here)

Just take look here:

All major altcoins going to minus red.
The reason is simple..... LISK 

  except that lisk is -43.34 % there, right now...

The price of the  "Lisk" Pre-Launch Token has nothing to do with the price of the real Lisk launching price.

[bangomatic]

Seems like most everything else is tanking. Are they selling to pile into this coin? It has had some good trading moves.

Yup just checked. A lot of coins going down for no reason. They just might be dumping early to jump on Lisk.

probably whales dumping a little so as to cause panic selling. Then whales rebuy at the bottom & noobs with shakey hands lose.

true, I won't be too excited comparing them

People are pulling their BTC from other altcoins in anticipation of Lisk launch

could be right could be wrong but time will tell.

drop came after OB was out. lisk was already known. i think its to do with that OB. btc holding strong. if BTC rises that means its OB which has since it came out

the bubble bursed. thats happening like two times a year. now, we will see a different market cap on alts.

saying nothing happened is just mindblowing.

If this was market reacting to OB, then I would expect to see a BTC price increase to go along with all the altcoin red.  BTC price is holding steady.

I personally am selling other alts in anticipation of Lisk launch.  There's probably many others making the same move as me.  Hence all the red.

just because the alts-bubble bursted not mean btc have to go up. btc is not going up nor down, because of that. at most because its not correlating with alts. btc and ltc are binded together.

but i guess just if you are two years watching the market, you can understand that.

I am watching the market since mid 2013 and I am still not aware, what those whales do... its rather annoying...

I have been watching the market for 2 years as well.  Normally the alt bubble bursts when we see big % moves in BTC price

This is one of the first times I've seen the alt bubble popping when BTC price is holding steady.

I believe the catalyst for this current pop is sales of altcoins in preparation for Lisk launch.

There was 330 BTC in shapeshift exchanges during Lisk ico.  Which proves that people have been sending other alts red in order to buy Lisk.

Lol, as if 330 BTC were really counting...

I heard Obama is getting ready to enter the USA into LISK to the tune of 2 trillion dollars. Glad to hear your legit market analysis also, thanks.

There´s stupendous investments in Bitcoin mining which probably are close to going belly up after the huge difficulty increases (+100% since December) Actually it went up by 100% in two months from Dec. and has been on a plateau since. Maybe miners went into mining other coins to try to save their behinds in the BTC mining investments which could help explain the altcoin dumping lately.

In any event I think this is much bigger than just money flowing into LISK.

[Sam123]

All major altcoins still going Down
