[ANN][MANA]Decentraland Tokenized VIrtual Reality with Open Standards

[RitaDiOro]

The Decentraland team has posted a recap of the token sale here:
https://blog.decentraland.org/mana-token-launch-recap-eed3a3ce212

The rumor that the top buyers were all whales is wrong. Most of the top "whales" were pools with dozens or hundreds of individual participants, including:

0x4f96: ico.info: 18,000 ETH, 1,083 participants.
0x9608: BitcoinSuisse: 10,000 ETH, 87 participants.
0xA65E: Gatecoin, 6,900 ETH, 66 participants.
0x4Dc: Cintix’s contract crowd buy, 6,668 ETH, 358 participants.
0x033c: TokenCapital, 2,500 ETH, 160 participants.
0x36f5: 3ICO, 4,000 ETH, 357 participants.

In total there were over 2,000 individual buyers. So it wasn't the big whale party that everyone is complaining about.

But a lot of individual supporters couldn't buy in. I think the moral here is, next time do your buying with a pool. That's what I'll do, anyway.

And what about all slack members (how many of them, several thousand at least?) that thought the are in the whitelist?

And we cannot check the real number of participants for these organizations and you don't know exact amount of investments. It could be very large number of very small investors and few big whales who control almost all tokens. To update this info, you need to know the max cap for individual investor for these pools...

Lots of questions.

They moved the ICO time earlier than what everyone expect. I too have been waiting for the ICO, knowing that the timer they have on the first page of the ann, is the old scheduled time of their ICO.

They didn't ICO time earlier. They had a hardcoded part in the contract for these big groups, they have sent ETH before public ICO started. And the Decentraland team actually knew that almost all MANA will be sold before ICO start. What a bad attitude for all supporters...

that was a quick ICO. How did so many people end up buying so quickly? it's listed on hitbtc but well overpriced than ICO price. I'm not even sure what went on with this one. Is there any way to purchase it?

Nope. None. Just forget about this project. Just wish them goodluck with their centralized project. LOL!!

Hitbtc is the last place where to look for seeing a new token's price. As far as I know the are not trading the actual token, but "the promise" of that token. Usually dramatically overpriced.

Hey, can you explain why it's centralized? Since to me it looks that everyone is free to create their own virtual reality on this platform.... Not saying that you are wrong but just that I would like to understand your point of view to better understand this project.

Backread so you'll understand my point(Rant actually).

I love projects like this. these the future is leading. they're trying to capture the space age. it's an interesting project. now all the technology used in LEDs. many of might have contributed to solar energy panels. good luck. I'll follow up. 

[RitaDiOro]

There's some decenterland outcasts project or smth like that. Anybody has the link?I will support decenterland's outcast project after this greedy ICO!

I was thinking of putting a copy of the S:PH virtual office lobby inside decentraland but I think there'll be some problems. The file size of the shares per hour VR business networking system is getting pretty big. It's like 1 gigabyte now and growing. Is the file size a problem or not? The next issue is that the S:PH office lobby has interactions, is decentraland limited to just 3D models?

[pigheadbig]

Any updates? I mean exchanges list?

I think it is too early to ask this question, generally, there will not be any information about the exchanges before the ICO is over since it is a secret for investors.

I have joined in the Slack and also I have sent the email to register the white list, but four days past, I still can not receive the feedback email on both my mail box and trash box, anyone met this problem?

I have received the email and have been accepted on the white list, I think you can ask the slack manager for help, maybe you missed some important information.

The Decentraland Community Whitelist Sale is going on right now: https://blog.decentraland.org/the-community-whitelist-starts-today-13d3299560d5

If you are already on the whitelist, make sure you get your MANA. It's still open for another 15 hours or so.

What did one have to do to get on the whitelist?  I seem to be able to contribute ETH, but I don't remember registering on the whitelist.  Perhaps I just forgot?

[rdix]

If you go here and enter your address in the whitelisted field, then hit Query, it will tell you if you were on the whitelist: https://etherscan.io/address/0x3c337fa1bf8725f59f73db6db719c792c5e8ae74#readContract

If your transaction went through and you got MANA, then you probably were, of course.
