More than just a rumour, i saw him in a recent video (a week or so ago on YT) saying IPO is only a matter of weeks away. Check out their forum, there is alot of talk regarding the IPO and all signs point to an imminent IPO (which will run for at least 4 weeks i think or up to 60 days ?). They have a crazy target of 30,000 Bitcoin though...Im not sure what happens if they dont meet their target...I believe it's 1000 Eth per BTC invested.. Q4 is the target time to have it up and running (at least the first version of it) not IPO
A couple of things.
- It will be an Ether sale, ie, a kickstarter type event to preorder Ether
- There is no date announced for it
- There is no detail announced about it
- There is no 30k 'target'. A comment was made, way back, that the organization could envisage doing a lot of good for the ecosystem up to 30k btc, it's not and has never been a goal.
The model has changed quite drastically since its first draft I think people are going to be pleasantly surprised. We're aiming to create the template for setting up a DAO: open and transparent wall to wall. Open organization, open equity, open source and open salaries. This explains the delay in releasing information by the way.
More soon.
