An announcement regarding BTCD Swap rate and bonuses


There has been a lot of discussions about the BTCD swap rate, and whatever the 0.00532 BTC/BTCD rate is enough.

As the community was waiting for the coming announcement, the BTCD price had already climbed near this price. Once the announcement went live, the price had already reached its 'ceiling'. What made things look even worse was the ICO bonus system for BTC investors. Those bonuses would further lower the KMD share BTCD investors would get in the swap. In other words, some people felt that BTC investors have a significant edge, because they have the bonus system and the BTCD holders feel like they didn't get one.

To solve this, the allocation of BTCD in the ICO will be saved from dillution by applying the average bonus the BTC investors got to the swap rate.

Example: Lets say 10000 BTC are collected and 1000 BTC in early investor bonus was taken. That means the average bonus is 10%. This brings the BTCD swap rate to 0,005852.

Very nice move. This was the kind of additional extra I wanted to achieve for BTCD holders.
Will blog about this within the next 2 weeks.

Crypti holders were offered 1300 BTC buyout, and 14000 BTC was raised for Lisk.  Crypti swappers got less than 9% of Lisk supply

BTCD holders will be getting ~7000 BTC buyout.  Even if maximum 30000 BTC is raised for Komodo, that would still be 20%+ of supply going to BTCD holders.

It's a good deal, I'm happy with it.

I don't see any Crypti holders complaining anymore, now that the BTC value of their holdings is up 350%+ through the Lisk conversion

I know jl777 is a famous developer. But can someone summarize how many ICOs he launched and how many he delivered? I read somewhere that he likes to abandon projects.

I think a better way to put it is that JL takes on too many projects and 95% of the projects that he announces get indefinitely postponed or cancelled because another ground-breaking idea pops in his head. I think its a bit of ADD. edit - nothing personal intended only observational claim here 

Your observational skills need improvements. I only see a lot of dedicated work by James for a project that is very large in scope and has a long list of things to do in order to have all gears in place. Of course things must wait for their turn because others are first on the list. That is normal development, or how could it be different? I can't remember projects cancelled by James, on the contrary there were related third party projects that failed and James had to work more to make up for them.

Thanks for the observation.

The following is the list of projects I have started since last November when the NXT situation threw a monkey wrench into things by drastically changing its fee structure and everything else:

iguana

Now does iguana have more than a single function. Well yes. Maybe that is what confuses some people, they hear about all these different things that iguana does and cant imagine it is all just one thing.

Separately, an update on my "failed" asset jl777hodl which is a holding fund with 200 siafunds, which appears to be worth over 600 BTC in addition to other assets. Some rumors that siafunds will start trading on poloniex soon, and if its price goes above 5BTC each, then jl777hodl would have gone from 0 to 1000+ BTC. Considering it never did an ICO and I just funded it with my personal holdings, it is a good result.

I also invented the MGW, multigateway, which issues a proxy asset to represent native cryptos 1:1. The multigateway automatically accepts deposits into a multisig address and returns the corresponding asset. Redeems are also automatic and a destination address can be any valid coin address. This has been around for over 2 years and to me it seems to invalidate the claim that I never finish anything.

MGW + NXT AE was doing a tokenized DEX, which allows decentralized trading via the AE. Now we are finally seeing alternate implementations of this tech. 2 years later. I also see the trolls proudly posting lists of the dozen+ proxy assets I issued for MGW to support their claim I am doing an ICO every day. The truth is these assets and many others are just issued with a fee and they are kept around until some deposits are made. Not exactly the millions of dollars of free money I supposedly raised from asset sales.

I have also invested in a variety of other projects. Additionally I freely help other projects when they ask. Now maybe my problem is I post about things that are not just about iguana, but if you think about it, if I am posting about things then I am not coding.

Market cap of btcd is currently ~5k btc, so not bad.
What happens to the komodo left after the year has finished? Inevitably many will not be swapped.

[iCEBREAKER]

I know jl777 is a famous developer. But can someone summarize how many ICOs he launched and how many he delivered? I read somewhere that he likes to abandon projects.

Please don't fall for the usual fud, there is expecially one notorious troll Icebreaker that continues making stuff up. He sounds retarded if you know the facts. The only past Ico was Supernet and the first release of its core component Iguana is around the corner. No project has been abandoned, James is working very hard but the to-do list is long. By January with both Iguana and Komodo released the future will look pretty good.

A year ago, I predicted BTCD would be abandoned before being completed, and that's exactly what happened.

My fears were well-founded.  My uncertainty based on the fact ICOscam777 has left dozens of unfinished project in his wake.  My doubt turned out to be the correct assumption.

I'm not the only one who says this; many victims of these ICO scams have spoken out.

EG:

how many ICOs has jl777 launched over the years?

Here's a (partial) list of ICOscam777 projects:

After spending hundreds of hours roaming this forum I must tell you I feel JL777 is the biggest scammer around.
The amount of BTC gathered for BTCD/superNET/NXT-assets issued by his gang is just horrendous.

And the feeling is like everybody is waiting for the miracle tech to come out if not today, tomorrow for sure.
Just scan the thread for BTCD, its almost, almost, almost there. It's finally coming together ... stuff like this on whatever page you chose.

But for BTCD in particular, I see the same wallet used for many months now. I know there is beta around, but it's almost 2 years since BTCD was born. 2 years.

Multiple coins are participating in SN, bought up by LJ (on investor's behalf of cause)
Aaaand there is new project born every day. And new ones after that. And some ideas for a brand few new ones in the middle.


Two years almost passed. InstantDEX is almost ready?

Many of those assets were dividends, however the case of cryptocard is very disappointing. Jl777 launched that fundraiser on the btcd thread, collected 10k btcd from memory when it was worth a lot more, but now he says that was coinomat project. Jl777 converted all his cryptocard assets into WAVES, then sasha mentions after the waves ico ends that coinomat business will likely be sold (who would buy coinomat?), and definitely not part of WAVES.

The cryptocard asset was a fail, and jl777 raised considerable funds, and dumped his own assets, probably knowing sasha's intentions to abandon it.

Jl777 started cryptocard, raised the funds, subcontracted sasha and coinomat, then adandoned the project and bailed to waves, probably with insider knowledge, leaving bagholders still thinking an anon debit card is still being worked on.

No project has been abandoned?

(  I'm not sure of the logic of the above poster, but offering a swap is hardly abandonment)( maybe this person can go harass nxt community about abandoning nxt1.0)

So I still have not gotten a clear answer on this:

What is proposed to happen to the BTCD that has been swapped for Komodo?

Nothing will happen to it.

Currently BTCD is used by Iguana, so the network will continue running to make sure nothing breaks. However, over time everything will be moving to Komodo blockchain, and at the end BTCD will have no role left in the SuperNET ecosystem. Komodo is the new BTCD, it just got an upgrade to the privacy technology and a new consensus method dPoW.

Does this answer to your question?

Is it possible that a new role could be made for btcd once things move to komodo?

There is no logic in the above poster, Icebreaker has been for a long time one of the most notorious BTT trolls. He regularly trolls any thread on any coin that isn't in his investment portfolio. Sometimes he changes sides (i.e. he dumps a coin) and start trolling his old favourite and praising the one he trolled the day before. He has been also involved in a previous scam.

I like how you dishonestly use the word "swap" to imply a 1-to-1 trade of BTCD for Komodo, when in fact what actually happening is massive dilution of BTCD bagholders' equity.

And now you and ICOscam777 will continue to bog down and confuse the conversation with pages of tedious hand waving garbage dithering over exactly what and how and when dilution will occur.

Characterizing scam busting as "harassment" is equally precious.  Oh poor you!  Leave James Alone!

@KomodoPlatform

do you plan to make an ad campaign on Reddit and Facebook?

Our understanding is that on Reddit the ad spots are booked for many months in advance. We will consider a Facebook ad campaign though, if we conclude it to be worthwhile.

Is a Facebook ad campaign something you would strongly recommend yourself?

Is it possible that a new role could be made for btcd once things move to komodo?

We cannot promise anything like that. Our current plan is to eventually move all the tech over to Komodo.

Of course a new developer team could be formed for the BTCD, but for a project without any funding that is quite unrealistic.

I have no experience with Reddit but I did some Fb campaigns years ago, it can be well targeted to people with interest in crypto and doesn't cost much.

I took the time to read (probably) all available stuff about the swap today and I came to the conclusion that it is a good deal for BitcoinDark hodlers. I was a little doubtful at first. JL777 did a good job and he still doing a good job. Keep going!

Oh boy, are you pulling a bill clinton on me? It depends on what meaning of "is" is..

swap
swäp/
verb
1.
take part in an exchange of.
"we swapped phone numbers"
synonyms:   bandy, exchange, trade, reciprocate
"we swapped jokes"
noun
2.
an act of exchanging one thing for another.
"let's do a swap"
synonyms:   exchange, interchange, trade, switch, trade-off, substitution; informalswitcheroo
"a job swap"

Since you like to "read between the lines" has it occured to you that james could have used monero/boolberry/aeon tech for btcd but he did not. Like an adult he realised zcash was going to be superior and chose it instead.

I don't post much here and even less in order to reply to FUD, and I think james is able to address other accusations perfectly by himself, but when browsing quickly I saw this part of your quote, digging up for convenience an old abandoned topic in nxtforum, I could not refrain myself. If you pasted this, you seem to have little clue about what you're saying, or if you really do have a clue, you do not seem to care about what you post. I think I am qualified to reply because I have been coordinating the Multigateway service for quite a long time now.

The Multigateway working in Nxt Asset Exchange is perfectly fine and working, thank you. The mgwCOIN assets were development assets that were swapped over a year ago for the superCOIN assets that have been used since, through the MGW v2 server code, and are still being used, most specially superBTC and superBTCD. You can find the current assets information in the Multigateway information website. The multi-wallet GUI to deposit and withdraw supported coins is SuperNET Lite. Here you have the source code and the downloads and releases information. The client side is currently developed by tosch taking from the first SuperNET Lite release in 2015.

Maybe Iguana will make the current incarnation of the Multigateway obsolete. Maybe the Multigateway in Nxt will morph to a new tool under new development hands. There's a lot of things changing, the pace is speeding up, and it is difficult to predict how everything will work next year, but quoting the MGW as an "abandoned project" is ridiculous and simply false. James moved on to develop other projects when the MGW was stable, and in spite of the disagreements between james and the Nxt developers, SuperNET has been keeping the MGW infrastructure up for a long time and maintaning a useful tool for the SuperNET/Nxt community.

tl:dr, check your sources. Otherwise you are hurting any credibility you may have.

claiming MGW is abandoned, jl777hodl is failed when it has accumulated 600+ BTC from just one of its holdings, and other desperate FUD, it does seem that somebody is in a panic mode.

on the one hand "jl777hodl is a failure"
on the other hand it has 200 siafund worth over 600 BTC

on the one hand "MGW is abandoned"
on the other hand MGW has been in service for years as described above

on the one hand "jl777 starts project after project"
on the other hand jl777 has be focussed on iguana for the last 10 months

anyway, iguana was having some windows compatibility issues and so I ported the entire 100,000 line codebase into visual studio, today. I guess I am just too slow and I should have been able to do it in 4 hrs? My only excuse is I dont even have a windows machine and had to do it remotely, power went out for a few hours and I dont use windows. that is why it took all day

So let us stop this nonsense about me not finishing projects. Porting iguana to visual studio would have been a month+ project for most devs. So does it count against me that I started the port iguana to visual studio project today and finished it today?
