At this time 150 Electrons gets you 7.4 IONS (round figure) if sold on the Ion platform about 0.001258 BTC
Same amount of Electrons in game purchase $9.99 around 0.008
How is that right I thought owning Atoms was meant to be a good investment but asking the question for who was this good investment aimed at, rip off at best.
You should be allowed to offer you Electrons for sell to others rather than the Dev Team buying them for F all and selling them for a massive mark up

Pick up 100 Atoms from the live auction and you will earn 10 Electrons FREE every day!!!

Trying to unload some Atoms I see? Why don't you provide some profitability maths so your marks can enter the auction properly educated vs educated by ignorant ION shills?

@CryptoBuds How am I unloading Atoms and remain a Whale?

This looks like I'm publishing information about Ionomy... I don't think I've been selling Atoms..

How many times are you going to edit your post? I've noticed three different alterations and yet the formatting is still screwed.

[Rick_James]

Xbits was never anything to do with Garza or GAW. It was something XPY.io introduced as a way of funding the development of the XPY.io platform. When they dropped XPY people that had invested in XBits had a chance to convert them to ATOMS and any XPY they had to ION. This in today's world is one big positive  

You know all this anyway so why the misinformation......

I wouldn't know that from the way Sharkie is shilling it. If you don't like him presenting this as a ponzi scheme then talk to him. It's your money in this shit so it would seem it would be in your best interest to NOT have it promoted as a scam.

Such isn't saying Atoms have anything to do with GAW, simply that the claims our friend Sharkie made about Atoms are startlingly similar to some of the claims Garza made about products he offered. You can see that, surely?

Exactly.

Both of you.... Point taken..... thanks for the clarification  

See we're helpful at BCT to show what shit-coins look like

How's shilling ION over at Hashclub? - https://hashclub.org/topic/1286/any-ionomy-news/
You even have Pharaoh848 helping there - https://twitter.com/Pharaoh848 - Pharaoh sure loves two things ION and BillingServ (the company Adam and others work at).

 

Really? So if your going to accuse of spreading false info you should make sure your own is on point. Adam has nothing to do with billingserv.

Since you don't know how to math let me help you.

If someone wanted to become a shark it would cost 5220 * 0.002 BTC = 10.44 BTC

The 522 daily electrons would sell for 0.7 / 15 * 522 = 24.36 ION or ~0.004 BTC at today's rate.

That's ~7 years until break-even, which is utter idiocy considering how the "team" switches business plans every year and generally can't deliver anything that's not delayed or shit or both. And didn't someone already mention a possible change in how many electrons would be pooped by atoms?

Only someone holding a huge bag of atoms would think that a huge bag of atoms is a good idea.

So its easy to sit and talk behind a screen, lets put you under a microscope and see how you check out. Didnt think so.

Is it Fallacy Friday at ionomy world headquarters today? You might wanna park your high horse until you're ready to admit being wrong in any of your own bullshit or put yourself "under a microscope". Ionomists being shady about their business structures is at least somewhat relevant since they're the ones taking OPM. Your fetish for ionomy critics to be doxed has no bearing on the success or failure of ionomy, other than to make ionomists look like utter fools.

It takes 24 electrons to double a 1k ION staker. For an "over 25K staker" you would need 24*25 = over 600 electrons. Lying much?

Ok, let's assume you're just "mistaken" since you're shit at math. What is the "APR Rate" on your staker? I'll do the rest.

Ill gladly admit when im wrong, Im assuming your speaking to your screenshot. I was wrong, maybe it was not edited (you could have just said you tested it on an emulator) I didnt bring up the hiding shit pixel did. I could careless who is a member here, i was speaking to their point about hiding. Ive said before that there is things that could be done differently by the team. I know also that ive seen mentioned that huey has taken your advise and recomendations on things. Maybe instead of just assuming its a walled garden at slack,go there and voice opinions more often. Just because the team chooses not to come here dont mean they do not listen to everybody. Not just the supposed "shills"

45-55% APR on the stakers and my stakers are slight over 20K for Electrified (480 Atoms)... use 100% APR when electrified => 24K ION per yr or 65.75342465753425 IONs and currently at 21 cents => $13.81 per day and I can sell the atoms when I finish...

You also have to add in all the fees I don't pay on the exchange for Trading...

Not sure what this whole slack thing has to do with anything, but I've been there. I've been openly lied to and attacked with some vile shit by tor/boki, MrCoins, and some other users there... not that I care much but there just doesn't seem to be any good reason to voluntarily go and voice my opinion "more often".

It's mighty deceptive of you to suggest that I should do that as if there is something special about that place. This "go to slack" nonsense has been debunked over and over. It's a trollfest way worse than Bitcointalk. Even their own rules don't apply any longer, otherwise half of them would be banned. And if there is anything worth listening to on either site I'm sure there are plenty of users between here and there who could relay it.

45-55% APR on the stakers and my stakers are slight over 20K for Electrified (480 Atoms)

I'm assuming that's 480 electrons, not atoms. That would make it exactly 20k IONS to electrify, not slightly over. Not sure why you keep fudging the numbers in such blatant ways.

With your average 50% rate you get 50% extra, or 20k * 0.5 / 365 = 27.40 ION per day. Slightly better than than selling electrons, so that would make it ~6 years to break-even? And require an additional 3.5 BTC to fill the stakers.

My point still stands. Any sane non-bag-holding person would run far away from these atom PNGs.

What you gotta understand Mr. James is that members of this forum didn't collect 350+ bitcoins from people and promise them one game per month via the white paper. Members of this forum also did not deliver the first game 9 months late after pitching one game per month to get people roped in. Members of this forum didn't choose to start a half baked, semi crypto project and fail to deliver on the white paper dates. Big difference.

Or keep your money and you won't have to depend on the "team's" mercy for the next 6-7 years.

Even if you feel charitable and want to donate to that nice bunch of paycoiners trying to recover their losses... it wouldn't make sense to buy atoms anyway. Just buy the IONs. That way you would have at least some liquidity if suddenly and completely unexpectedly it turns out that the "team" isn't quite as competent as the shills are trying to make it look.

I don't think you got the memo!!! Ionomy is going to produce more in-depth games and there will be months between releasing them

[pixelpowered]

atoms (previous xbits) were a way to participate in funding the new platform that ionomy has become.  Most of the people who bought them knew that, and trusted Adams team to make something great, they have.  More work is needed but that will come.  The benefits that extended from that are a plus.  Have a nice night, and keep on trolling ya trolls, we will still be here years from now

That sounds IONIC enough as a reply, thanks retracted!
I'm glad your talking about xbits and the xpy to ion - participation?

From the 'just to be clear' link to try to separate your stink - https://news.ionomy.com/just-to-be-clear/
"Is ION the same thing as XPY? No. ION is a coin that is wholly independent from Paycoin. Paycoin still exists as its own coin and blockchain. ION was not a coin swap, hard fork, or rebrand in any way, shape, or form."

Yet...

Besides exchanging xpy for ion, they also exchanged xpybits for atoms.
Sure you guys want to claim no connection again?

Yep 100% no connection
This was the ION team giving customers an opportunity to follow or exit. BTW. For those that owned XBits they could have left sold them for BTC making a small profit.... most didn't  

Participation in funding the Ionomy platform sounds like it exchanging or swapping XPYs and IONs.
It would probably be good to clear what verbs and adjectives were performed inside the participation.
Wouldn't want to misunderstand the great work performed.  

Also, what LLC sold the coins or was it just Adam on the exchange?
