BAT - Basic Attention Token ICO (31-5-17)- Worth Investing?

[chutchmcgillicutty]

The whole gas thing definitely favors the whales.

Kind of sucks that there's never going to be a way for little guys to get into the super hyped ICOs under current sytem going forward...

If BAT won't help us, I don't want them  . Not going to buy from someone that will immediately double the price. Bought in for 9 million and will receive 18M. Lets say you are way to late, but within seconds. And how come the big players did not had a browser problem, or a white screen. How BAT will look into this and will still work something out. All the crypto coins are known because of the support we all here give them.

Am I the only one having trouble with MyEtherwallet? Wanted to participate with it and now withdraw my tokens again.. still tx' don't show up...

Telling you. People paying $200+ USD in gas alone because they can make shit ton of money anyways. Whatevs

Don't worry, I don't think this project will succeed.  This is a dude (the BAT founder) from the old economy where click bait and internet ads and social media are the main focus.  In crypto world, that old way of thinking doesn't apply.  This project going nowhere.  It's like an IBM guy trying to build an App for the first iPhone...it's not going anywhere.

Stop being stupid and buying this coin for 3x.  Just because washed up old timers from the era of web browsers want to get wet in the crypto world, doesn't mean they will succeed.

100% agree. Now everyone wants an ICO. Imagine if BGates does one? Sells out in 1 second for a gazillion dollars. Then whales will snatch it up and sell it 3x like now. Its ridiculously stupid.

I am not in any of the ICOS mentioned although many of them are good. I heard that BAT sold out very fast anyway. I don't understand the GAS problem in my etherwallet. I have that wallet too, does that mean my transactions will get stuck like Bitcoin? I am entering another ICO tomorrow and don't want to get my ETHS stuck.   I

Dude, they only have 200 holders...that's actually a really really bad thing.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the number of people invested in the coin (the community of holders) really matters.  Who is going to use this browser?  200 people...lol... let them have it- I'm not buying BAT.

Look at all the successful cryptos- Monero, NEM, ETH, BTC... lol... they have a community of holders invested.  BTC was giving out coins for free back in the day because even they knew the more people that hold the coin- the higher the value.

I'm not even entertaining buying BAT anymore- The fact that they have 200 large holders is a dealbreaker for me given how hyped this project is.

That's right. The ICO should be the game only for whales! I think the only reason that why they did not had a browser problem is that the had make a deal with the miner or the pool. If most of us don't have the chance to participate in the ICO, less attention maybe paid on that project. I think it is not a good situation for the project. SO if you need our support, give the chance to everyone fairly!

Another ICO and I coulnd't invest again.

Yesterday I faced same problem while trying to join Mysterium Network ICO and today Basic Token Attention  
Now I'm looking price on Liqui. x3 already  

Anyway that was great ICO, they reached their target in minutes.

[giletto]

Currently you can buy BAT for 2x the ICO price. I bought some because I think it's not that expensive.

At liqui? Their rate is 2000 BAT for 1 eth where it was 6400 bat for 1 eth. So 3x

wow, that is fast. They have been on liqui already. I have to check bat right now. LOL. x3 is a high price. I believe that the pricce will soon hit 15k satoshi when this coin appears on bittrex. People always pump a new coin when it has a new exchange

[Kryptowerk]

Anyone knows what address to use if I want to add the BAT token via "add custom token" in Myetherwallet?
It's the last segment in this doc: https://basicattentiontoken.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/BATCrowdsaleHowTo_myetherwallet-1.pdf
I could not find the address on their website.

[xapwxrm5742]

BAT is a shit .
the ICO program should be more people join it,but it's only about 184 join in it
and most people on those guy pay about 6000 ETH to join the project
I won't exchange the coin in the market！

But wasnt that the same deal with Gnoss? like only a couple thousand people hold it and now it 200+ from $30?

[btsfreak]

That is why those people will be very surprised once the coin lock disappears after one year and the market cap goes up 1500% (and the price for the token down the same way)

Interesting. So Gnoss will crash down like a plane. Its gonna hurt.

[FalconCrypto]

Are people really paying $1 per token, while the investors originally paid about $0.04 per token?

BAT coins? No. its more like .12 in the market now. 3x its price

[lokojones]

that was a control buy, fucking monopoly... I will do exactly same thing which I did with golem... setup buy order with price 30% lower than ICO price and wait:)

worked for me last time... and I got charged 8cent for gas - disgraceful

Ok, yes 3x.

This might still be a good investment then.
