Over 3k BTC first week, how do we know these are not the same Devs recycling the BTC to hype it up? Not trying to FUD.

Let them post their btc addresses used in the past. It may confirm whethere they have used to recycle or not. Most probably, they don't recycle to attract more people.

I'm pretty sure that is the case, I mean not even Lisk or WAVES collected that much and specially not in their first week.

right.  


remember one thing guys. the Chinese invest in ONLY one thing.  taking people's money and making it their own.

i wont touch this with a 10 foot pole, same reason i called waves a scam from the beginning.

btw, has eric from haobtc a supposed escrow even popped his head in here yet?  the guys active usually in other threads? hmmmmm

whats with all these come from nowhere chinese coins all a sudden?

Thanks for the "A2A":

Here are some facts that I can confirm:
1. Antshares does use HaoBTC's 2-of-3 multisig vault and claims that it intends to store the company's ICO bitcoin assets in this vault - the address is: 3LZoBhKUJzuyk7w3aX5H4LdmopJ8m5aesv
2. Wu Gang, CEO of HaoBTC, holds one of the three keys, out of which two are required to give one access to the vault. I can't comment as to whether this is a corporate behaviour or a personal one of Wu.
3. Personally I am not involved in Antshares project and until today not aware of the above-stated.

is there anyway you can contact Wu Gang and ask him to confirm or deny as there is a lot at stake here?

@antshare, id also advise sending the btc over to the escrow address as it comes because you cant say the project is escrowed if it isnt in escrow yet?

can someone do some digging on the final key holder for the escrow please?

All the investing address is shown in the ranking and anyone can check every address to make sure those are untouched.

that doesnt mean nothing!! you say you have escrow well there is no fkn escrow because you are in control of all the funds on the site.
people demand the funds are sent to escrow now, this seems very very shady.

a whale invested 1000 BTC. that about 1/3 of the total invested so far.

is there a minimum amount for this ICO to be considered success?

Still 17d to go, 3k (well, that's even almost 4k atm) is fairly good amount already.
Seeing how the ICO is going, it's going to be even higher.

Can anyone explain to me what is going to happen to the rest of the antshares that are not for sale in the ICO, are they being kept by the devs or what?

Also, is there an estimate on when the platform will launch? and will the tokens be tradeable at launch.

And is there a plan for antshares to be added to any specific exchanges? If so, which ones?

They've lined that out in the whitepaper:



Approximately 10% of the ANS have been designated to early supporters of the Antshares, in exchange of 600,000 yuan of seed fund. 400,000 yuan of the seed fund was from several individual investors under an overall valuation of 5 Million. 200,000 yuan of the seed fund was from a VC, PreAngel, under an overall valuation of 10 Million. It is worth noting that individual investors have contributed voluntarily in full-time or part-time.

Approximately 17% of the ANS have been designated to participants of the ICO Phase I, which took place in October, 2015, in exchange of 2,100 bitcoins. About 1,200 bitcoins were from individual investors while 900 bitcoins from one institutional investor.

Approximately 23% of the ANS will be designated to participants of the ICO Phase II, which is about to be launched in August, 2016. This ICO has no pre-set price or cap, but it does come with a refund mechanism. See details in the ICO CrowdFunding Draft.

All the remaining 50% of the ANS will be hold by the Antshares team. They will be locked for 1 year via a smart contract after the Antshares MainNet launch. After the 1-year locking, these ANS will be allocated for supporting the long-term operations of the Antshares.

ANS designated to early supporters, ICO 1 participants and ICO 2 participants will be in place after the official launch of the MainNet of the Antshares Blockchain. The MainNet is expected to be online in the 4th quarter of 2016.

Well, thanks for bringing up the topic anyway.

Escrow account is used to guarantee refund. We reevaluated the current multisig setup of the escrow address after the bitfinex/bitgo hack and decided to switch to manual setup instead of using third party wallet.

Thanks

Antshares Client (Beta) just for testing or will be real used soon?

Client will be real used after mainnet launch and also there will be web app online too. I'd recommend web app because it's simpler and easier.
Thanks!

No there is no min amount and the price will be determined by the market. Also people can refund before the mainnet launch.
Thanks!

We'll use the remaining ANS to gain more powerful partners and grow the eco-system.

The mainnet is estimated to launch in Oct or early Nov. ANS will be tradeable.

We've been communicating with exchanges and already had several Chinese exchanges agreed to list ANS. As for overseas exchanges we are still working on it and will let everyone know once there is any news.

Thanks!

Shame on me, how could i've missed this ANN for so long?! I will definitely keep an eye (or two?!) on this one.

Still 17d to go, 3k (well, that's even almost 4k atm) is fairly good amount already.
Seeing how the ICO is going, it's going to be even higher.

Over $2m worth of Bitcoin invested, I think by most measures it would be considered successful already.
