Are you re-investing those crowdsale BTCs ( or at least a part of them) into wallet/project development?
That's what they're specifically for.
Your website said the project is valued at around 60k BTCs including the 5k from crowdsale, wouldn't you get more profit to develop and get that value higher than to take the crowdsale BTCs for you acting like if it was profit you took from selling 5% of your stock value?
I'm not sure what you mean. We didn't consider proceeds from the crowdsale as a profit. Just cash to use to develop the new wallet.
Why do you think this worths 60k BTCs? (sources)
That's what the valuation sale determined.
Is there any other source of profit for this company besides ads that could be put in the wallet?
We won't be putting ads into the wallet. At least we will try to avoid them. Yes, there are other sources of profits for this company. Basically what we are doing with the current wallet already, but on a much larger scale.
just to check: so there's roughly about <10000 mycelium tokens? as in total available supply?
There are a little bit over 5,000 tokens, which account to for 5% of the company. There will be more tokens when we sell more of the company stake. Total we can't sell more than 100% of the company, or course. But this isn't anecessarily altcoin, so please don't think of it that way.
This seems serious:
http://coincidental.eu/2016/06/29/waves-is-not-ethereum-for-the-sake-of-god-dont-buy-it/Has there been any comment from Mycelium's team yet? Given that WAVES was part of their marketing campaign, it doesn't seem like they did much (if any) research before asking for people's money for crowdfunding. Perhaps Mycelium will distant it's business from WAVES but this still goes to show that there was no clear plan for what was going to be done with funds from the crowdfunding and it more or less served as a cash injection/donation. In this case, they used WAVES just to gather up hype around their project.
WAVES approached us asking to work with us and develop support (a plugin) for our wallet. No different from other plugins, or other companies who approached us as well (most recent is DASH). We agreed, and considered using their service for some of our internal fiat stuff. But that never meant that we would spend any of the money we raised on them. Just that they said they would like to develop stuff for us, and we said would be willing to include it.
The plan for what to do with the funds has always been clear and clearly stated: To develop a new wallet that supports a plugin architecture, like a crypto finance app store built on top of a personal/business financial management suite. And even more specifically, to use the funds to hire an Android, an iOS, and a UI developer to help get the project faster to finish.
Sorry if this wasn't clear to you specifically, but since you didn't invest and thus didn't bother to do anything beyond cursory "research" thats not surprising.
If WAVES fails to deliver on their promise, that doesn't really affect us or our plans. If they do deliver, it just gives us one more option on top of Colu, Tether, Ether, Rootstock, Omni, Counterparty...
