[ANN] STRAKS - A POW/Masternode Cryptocurrency focused on e-commerce utility

[cryptobber]

Nice coin, and features, do you think it will surpass dash in value? i my self think it will!

[Digital Drug Lord]

Which Exchanges are planning and when to buy STRAKS?

STRAKS will be launching on HitBTC in February. The exact date will be published across all STRAKS communication channels as soon as it is established.

I would not put your coin on that exchange. I'm not investing in your coin if it's on places like hitbtc yobit coins control coinsmarket or any of the other exchange scams out there.

Leave it on kucoin and binance and be done with it

Another scam coin. STRAKS Developers pulled the shady swap, what makes new buyers think it wont happen again? Just a cheap move to lower the total supply.

The only thing shady about it is that it hurts STRAKS by introducing weekly dumping. The team didn't hold enormous quantities of SIGT to actually benefit from this, they did it to help the community, many of which got the bad end of the stick.

At this rate, whatever Signatum you swapped is fully reimbursed within 4-6 months at the price of the sigt ATH.

This, in itself, is great. I only wanted to make ends meet and not lose my SIGT investment, and it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Even if STAK dumps to $2 I will still have made a profit.

Anyone holding SIGT is now screwed.

You don't have to be a crypto genius to know that holding dead coins is not a good idea. Do you seriously think someone will swoop in and take over SIGT development?

Just read the weekly update, great and all the very best. Racing car Advertisement will really widen the reach of STRAKS.

STRAKS' Weekly Update is now out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2433318.msg24920954#msg24920954

Thanks for news.

I would like to see STRAKS on www.kucoin.com and www.binance.com exchanges. STRAKS will x2 x3 in short term. Thank dev team so much. P/S : those 2 exchanges have many potential coins as well. Reg one for yourself. 

Ha I think most coins would like to be on major exchanges. It's not really up to the coin developers to just 'decide' that they want to be on a large exchange. There is an application process, fees to be paid, priority list from the exchange etc.

Even for an exchange like Cryptopia, they charge something like 5 BTC just to get listed (which is a ridiculous amount imo), and they aren't even one of the main exchanges - they're more second tier kind of level.

Cryptopia about 20-25 BTC now. The same price with HitBtc

That is crazy.  Cryptopia listing was less than 2 BTC 6 months ago, wasnt it?  And that was when BTC like 1/3 its current price.

Its not true! I did not pump sigt! You lie!

I wanted to take a look on this exchange but small volumes and poor amount of listed coins and no asks orders were too suspicous. Also Straks devs didn't tell anything about new exchange (except HitBTC in the February). So I made research... And found that it's scam .

I don't recommend to use it... Be careful. I removed links in quote.

And @Tryoene - get out. Reported to moderators.

Btw. bitcointalk should have normal moderators to ban bots like ivedevil or tryoene. Thread moderators isn't good (enough).

That's correct, they are asking 5M Dot coins or around 24 BTC. You can negotiate though but the asking is now more than $100k in USD equivalent. There is tremendous demand for coins exchanges now that's why these exchanges are making a killing in commissions and listing fees.

omg thats really a shame and redicolous. cant wait to see them exchanges obselete and proper decentralized exchanger taking over

[Trofo]

Received my weakly amount of STRAKS. It is really good feeling to just receive them regularly every week What is the impact on price on the days Signatum miners receive their STRAKS? Just curious if most of us is hodling or dumping. I will keep mine for some time.

[aknataga]

Thanks, have received next swap coins.

[2econd]

Hmm, I like the open source bit, how it should be. Are the developers Dutch by any chance? I've got this feeling due to the name of the token.

No one knows where are devs from, but yes - the name of this cryptocurrency has it's roots in Dutch. At the beginning there was a contest for that project.  There were +- 35 proposals and Straks won. Author of Straks name name said that it means something (probably fast or instant, I don't remember) in Dutch and it is catchy.

[koukir33]

or maybe they are Norwegian 

I think Sweden

Is there any mechanism in place that helps STRAKS deal with volatility? I think especially in the e-commerce space that's a big problem and maybe a stable coin will have much better chances to be successful in that area.

Right now the supply is somewhat low so volatility is determined by supply and demand. As more coins are dispersed through the system and STAK starts showing up on higher-volume exchanges, the price should start to even out a little more.

That's the only thing you can hope for but it is highly unlikely that STRAKS will ever be less volatile than Bitcoin. And if that is the case, it's really difficult to use it as a medium of exchange for e-commerce. We'll see how it goes once the platform is ready.

Even negotiated down to $100k is ridiculous. No wonder some new coins need such a high premine!

Would be a market for all those dead coins on cryptopia to get purchased by a new high quality team for like 10k, and get forked or completely 'relaunched' with new objectives, whitepaper etc. Would save $90k just like that.

Anyway, lots of new exchanges expected by mid 2018. Trade io and coin lion just to name a couple. I think there will be more competition in the exchange space soon, which should dampen asking prices for listing.

[cryptomane]

are there straks masternodes?
