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

[nappoleon]

ICO was done before it even started and when you go at their slack to talk about it, they treat you like you're some kind of baby whining. Their leader even responded indirectly calling you a pleb.

[rz20]

Buying them on exchange is my only chance to get this tokens now. I wish that this not one of those tokens which launch at x3 ICO price

[MadPanda]

So is this project completely DOA? Or was it just the sale that was handled poorly?

Guys I got a update from the devs that no one seen yet.

@channel: We had to cancel the whitelist because the way it was being implemented posed some security risks for all of us. We hear you, and want to make things right for everyone who believed in the project from early on. Because of this, we're going to honor our whitelist and sell 2% of the MANA tokens to the people who got whitelisted. The price will be the Ether equivalent of $24/land, as originally planned. This will take place early next week. More details to come soon.

This 2% will come from what was going to be held by Decentraland as a long-term endowment - the 40% discount ($24/Land) is guaranteed to everyone. This will enable the over 1,000 people who registered in the whitelist to buy at least $1,000 worth of MANA. More than enough to build your own neighborhood :nerd_face:

I am personally happy with this solution also most pre contracts were from groups of people buying and not single whales. They are not creating more tokens they resell it to us for the discount that was promised. So right now I think they did a perfect solution. Every fan will get his land and friends can get some land too.

If you were not in the white list it sucks then you really have to buy on exchange.

Well, this gives back credibility to the team I would say. They should have posted it also in their bitcointalk thread though.

i do not like the ideea of a bloody whitelist....especially if that end up on some hackers hand...fishy stuff..all those whitelist people can now be targeted as active investors with some money/coins to hack.very conveniant. i have a curiosity...what were the infos given on those whitelists? emails, adresses, real names? all the precious infos for a hacker?  good luck with this shit. i'm out!

[Marekeke]

FFS.. Careful this site is SCAM: https://decentraland.pro/ it is not the real decentraland site and they will steal your ETH! Learned that the hard way. They must have hacked the news subscription of decentraland because they are sending out mails to the reciepients of those.

[GGALINff]

I tried to buy in,  but shut out like many.
Got to question the wisdom in selling to whales for a project that will depend a lot on community participation.

puts pressure on them now,  they will have to deliver big time because they lost a ot of good will and opened the door to folks rather using a competent competitor.

The devs at Decentraland said that there subscription database had been compromised and the hackers were sending out scam emails.
Just be careful when dealing with anything Decentraland/Mana as you'll never know if it's a scam or not.

Oh! just a wee note; if you used the Chrome plugin and did not get any Mana you can recover your ETH using the following tip - I tried it and it works.

Just discovered this incredible project, but missed the ICO! When will these coins be available on exchange?

well...it seems that everybody mist it..so no harm done

Last night on hitbtc mama was selling for 8x the purchase price.

Still haven't received my eth back... anyone else?

The withdrawal funds button doesn't do a thing.

If you are talking about the Chrome plugin I had the same problem but found this to work - see link below.
You have to create a MyEtherWallet first, but that's simple enough to do.

Thanks Bambi!! Got it!

Anyone else... don't send your ETH from the decentraland extension to bittrex... it's not an official ETH wallet so .01 ETH test is lost... into the ether.

I can see more then 1200 transactions trying to send the ETH to the official contract address, and there are only 250 lucky guys successful, so it was sold out so quick that I also missed it. So sad.

It is really hard to buy the MANA ICO tokens and it seems that almost no one make it, so I have to doubt if the tokens are secretly sold by some big whales or some professional team. I think this is another BAT.

[KRAUSS]

Ok, guys! But we still can get MANA coins from exchanges in nearest future. Am i right? What do you think about MANA tokens? I guess i have to take this project in my mind )))

It's highly probable that you would get a very good return from the project that's why i was planning to invest into the ICO for so long but at the end i missed it.

[rdix]

I think MANA will be a good token to have for a few reasons:

• You can trade it to get your own virtual LAND in the Decentraland world. so it has value beyond just the token
• When people convert MANA to LAND, I believe the MANA will be burned, which will reduce the supply
• There will be a continuous token sale going on after the Decentraland world is implemented. This will increase supply over time, but since some people will trade for LAND it should balance out.
• Everyone loves the idea of the VR world, so the project will hold people's interest for a long time
• The development team is strong, and now they have the investment they need to actually build this world

I joined the ICO to get Mana at the 40% discount that everyone got (with the intention of dumping it at the first opportunity) - this includes the whales who will dump all there Mana as soon as possible to get a whopping great 40% profit !
This will cause a crash in the price of Mana, so get out now while you still can; and as for VR, well this is still very new tech and it's (slowly) developing with many other players just waiting in the wings to come out with there improved version, so if Decentraland can't keep up it will go to the wall like many other VR wannabes.
I remember using VR tech almost 30 years ago (headsets looked like 1950's salon hair dryers) and it hasn't really changed that much, until we get quantum computing VR will always be a bit 'chunky'.
