I really wish people would drop share locking issue completely. There are 100 different ways the owners could rip us off. There are serious risks investing in an unregulated market with an unregulated currency. If you want to focus on an actual important one, how about demanding a hashing meter so we know what the actual hashing rate is (not that it could even be trusted). Or perhaps published addresses were all hardware sales are deposited.
Complaining about locking shares is completely pointless. Stop, just stop, either accept the risks or don't.

A pretty f'in big +1. You invest in "an unregulated market with an unregulated currency" (just to quote you  ), and your biggest worry is locking shares? Seriously.. |
Good things come to those who wait.

I sold some back at 18 a few days ago and I regret it. Shares were bought at 16 - I would have an 70% at this point. Got out to make some coin trading ActM. Made some but not as much as I would have holding LC.

Are you telling me that gold speculators don't have to pay capital gains?
They don't pay taxes on unrealized gains. Correctly until they realize said unrealized gains. IE: when you cash out. This is where bitcoin is going to go. You aren't going to be able to say someone owes a certain amount of taxes in their bitcoins. When they exchange bitcoins to USD or another currency it will be exposed to the taxation of that currency. Easiest down-the-middle I can think of. Yeah, but what are dividends? Income? Capital gains? http://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/12/how-are-capital-gains-dividends-taxed-differently.asp |

I wonder how many people will be pissed off at the missed opportunity they'd have with labcoin.

At this point, pretty much all we got is faith. There are some pretty good indicators that this is not a scam though, if that is what you're implying. |

They only said they would after enough sissy people asked about it. I see no reason for the shares to be locked, if we wanted that it should have been decided pre-IPO. It wasn't a term of the IPO so why should thry do it other than to appease investors? |

Nice due diligence. Umm I understood the risks when I invested. I would like to invest more, but am looking for some more support. Unfortunately some of us have jobs so we can't read the 150 pages of crap to see the 5% of posts that are relevant. |

The biggest one for me is the way they handled the IPO. When demand for the shares was so high, they could have held the IPO auction-style and easily got double the money that they got. Many people actually wanted it done that way, so they would have easily gotten away with it. If it was a scam, don't you think they would have taken all that free money? Instead, they took the high road and did the most fair solution for the shareholders, getting only exactly the amount of money that they needed and planned for, which is exactly what an honest business would do. |

Yes. The way the IPO was going, it would have gone 0.003+ a share or more. |
