Any news about Cindicator buy back program? And when will be that? What about other projects invested by Starta? The price sucks, I need 1 usd to be back.

you are still in profit..
at the time of starta ico, bitcoin price was below 2500$
and currently bitcoin price is double.. so USD wise you are in profit

Sorry, but you are wrong.

At coinmarketcap the price is clearly converted directly into dollar value. At this moment it is $0.552969

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/starta/

So everyone who invested in the ICO lost at this point around $0.45 on each token.

There is no good news with this project from the start.The ICO started off very well with 1$ per token and within a day or two, it was over.Next was the exchanges to be listed which did not happen and only tidex, waves dex were listing it at the start.Now the price is less than half a dollar at 0.42cent.Don't blame BTC for this, the team is to blamed for the price to suffer this much.

Many top 100 coins on big exchanges are down the same amount percentage wise from July (the date of STA ico). Look at SC or GAME for example. Those are two I own, but there are probably another 25 in the top 100 down more than half in USD/BTC value since July. It has nothing to do with exchanges.

Yes, the STA team could communicate better. But as I said in a previous post, there is little for them to say at this point. They won't perform buybacks until they exit their positions from companies in their portfolios and the ICO tokens they received from companies they had minority stakes in are likely locked up for 1 year due to the vesting period as was stated for CND before they are able to sell them and buy back STA with the proceeds.

Are you from the team or related closely to them? How do you know such information about the exit position for a portfolio? I was of the opinion about buyback happening every quarter.

I am not from the team, but I did pick up some STA post-ico around $0.50. I am familiar with the space as I used to have a career in investment banking dealing in asset management. Things take time in the venture capital world. This is not a network coin where the value will go up with more users/exchanges and it never claimed to be. But I will say this coin is trading well below its book value right now and it's due to the fact of having little exposure and ICO investors having no idea what they bought in this offering and selling in an illiquid market. I'm not sure about the exact buyback times, but I think you may be correct that they will occur every quarter but only AFTER exits from their portfolio companies and this will most likely take another year for the first exit, if not multiple years.

As investors, we can look forward to possible bonus buybacks and/or tokens in the meantime. I know CND has a vesting period of 1 year, but the other ICO tokens may not have vesting periods and we may get distributions and/or buybacks sooner. We have to await the news for each specific ICO. The team updates in telegram from time to time. You can look at this token as a small hedge to a cryptocurrency portfolio as it has real world crossover (dealing with fiat money). One should not expect it to follow the cryptocurrency market in general.

Why is the team to blame for the way the market decides to evaluate the token? They have been only communicating about their development plan and any other relevant stuff. Or is there anything they failed to deliver on? Not to my knowledge. I don't understand why everyone expects the price to skyrocket when the platform is not even ready. These are highly speculative investments and they never claimed anything else.

If they are transparent then there wouldn't be this much question marks on investors minds I guess.

Tell me if im wrong, but "we" don't care? Useless informations, and with $5.000.000 token reach only a tidex and waves. What do you guys expect for these "news"? That all investors will say "good job" "nice" "finnaly i waste my money for useless news"
Nope.

#edit
Don't missunderstand me, you guys have great porfolio in your project, but these news will bring NOTHING to the token itself.

Yeah agree with you. Give some value to this token and be transparent.

Price has fallen quite a bit since the ICO so is there anyone who is still holding the tokens that they bought during the crowdsale?

I'm holding most the tokens I got from ICO. Hope it's good decision though

I bought some 1000 sta tokens during the ico and it has got a hard hit and trading less than 50% of the price.Still, I am waiting to sell them at ico price if it rises post btc fork

If they reveal the buyback process, we can decide more easier on our STA tokens.

As someone already pointed out that buyback will happen over a long period of time and this puts a lot of questions on early investors face who thought of making 2x-5x on launch.Nowadays buyback tokens arent of much interest..Look at iconomi,mobilego and now starta...value of coin keeps going down.

But I think Starta's portfolio is pretty promising. They had couple of successful ICOs already. There is not much of STA tokens at the market. If they can do the buyback transparent and efficient way, it can be successful.
You're right about Iconomi. But MGO hasn't started as I know.
But when I compare ICONOMI and TaaS, I would definitely go for TaaS method.

I invested 1 BTC to Starta which is worth a lot under current market price.
I will just hold it, hope things will get better at last.

Ok but what is that mostly bothers you where you think it is not sufficiently transparent?
