[ANN] Silk Network: DarkSilk(DSLK) ICO

[raphma]

ANNOUNCEMENT

Starting the 2nd week of the DarkSilk(DSLK) ICO we will be accepting Silk(SLK) payments at a 25:1 conversion rate.
Having monitored the reception of the DarkSilk(DSLK) ICO and the opening of the Silk(SLK) market on Bittrex we came to the following conclusions:

• The sell pressure in Silk(SLK) has been significant at a $0.01 rate.
• DarkSilk (DSLK) demand reaffirms a $0.25 price point.

To reduce excess Silk(SLK) liquidity on the market and to stabilise its price we will allow for Silk(SLK) payments to be made for the DarkSilk(DSLK) ICO. Greater DarkSilk(DSLK) distribution at a fair price is a welcome benefit. Silk(SLK) payments will not be eligible for bonus receivables.

The process for SLK payments will be the same as for BTC payments.

Will the ICO website be updated with amount of SLK statistics for the DSLK ICO?

Thanks all, you're doing a heck of a job!

This will most definitely be taken into consideration.

Also we are looking for members who are willing to spend time and chat about the project, so please do join our slack channel.

Matthew is really ill with a stomach flu (caught from the kids) and is a little slower at processing the transactions than the said hour, for obvious reasons (he is only human).

Do rest assured, like said before, if on the blockchain explorer you see your TX at your Weaver address, then it is there and safe.

I have been forwarding all emails from users asking about their TX's directly to him and they will be updated ASAP.

Thank you for all for your understanding with this matter and sorry.

(Before anyone asks, no, Weaver TX's are not being handled manually forever)

Hello Silk Ntwrk,

My Weaver account still says " btc incoming". No btc deducted for DSILK as described- once per hour the Bitcoin from Weaver is transferred to the 4/6 MultiSig CoPay BTC Wallet. Nothing was deducted. When will the deduction begin? Am I still in on the ICO.

Thanks

If you have paid into the BTC(ICO) address and it is read on the blockchain, then you are good. For further questions please drop by at our #support room on Slack.

29 BTC raised in first week? Why such low interest in ICO?

I guess investors were hoping for a SLK pump during DSLK ICO which never happened. This ICO would have gathered much steam if the price of SLK was higher.

It is very difficult to grow price of SLK (or any other coin) organically considering there are literally 100's of interesting coin out there and a dozen coming every month. The price need to be pumped to gather interest.
