Update!All our alts dropped a lot. In total, we went down in Bitcoin and in dollar, despite Bitcoin going up in value. Bitcoin's dominance went up too, and I think our altcoins did worse than the average altcoin.

* NMC has a very large price difference on different exchanges, that makes the average price on CMC much different than the price on Poloniex.
The amounts in column #10 are the result from selling the coins.
Full disclosure: Binance didn't allow me to sell the exact amounts. There's altcoin dust left (NANO: 273 satoshi, NEO 1048 satoshi and WAN 1 satoshi). I can't use, withdraw or sell this, so I consider it lost.
Binance also shows 0.30149056 NeoGas, worth 11,969 satoshi, but I can't sell this either (minimum is 0.001 Bitcoin). I think I can withdraw it (Minimum withdrawal: 0.001 GAS). If anyone wants to have it, post your NeoGas addy. If you all want it, you'll all get 1/9th (minus fee). I have no use for it, it belongs to this Round, so please take it!
Archived just in case it's needed later.
In the table above:
"Start" is August 13.
"Month 1" means the first month ended, AKA September 13.
"End" means June 13, 2019.On May 31, Poloniex sent me this email:
We will temporarily pause NMC withdrawals to conduct wallet maintenance. We expect the maintenance to take up to a few weeks. As a result, we are extending the withdrawal deadline for NMC to July 17th at 16:00 UTC. We will update you when NMC withdrawals have been re-enabled.
Now, my balance shows: "NMC Permanently Disabled". That doesn't make sense, so I've opened a support ticket.
WithdrawalsI didn't want to risk exchange rates on Tether, so I made 3 Bitcoin withdrawals:
Poloniex (0.5 m

The creator of
[ANN][EXCHANGE] Poloniex - Crypto Exchange with BTC/NXT has red trust since 2017. From the 3 exchanges I used in this experiment, Poloniex has the most annoying user interface. Withdrawals all worked fine, but I'm especially disappointed that Poloniex didn't give me a heads up
before delisting NMC! This red trust doesn't inspire confidence for my ticket, but I'll have to wait. The withdrawal deadline is still a month in the future, so I hope they'll still open it, but "Permanently closed" doesn't look good.
I'm in doubt how to proceed. I like to stick to the initial plan, which means I'll distribute the proceeds of this Roller Coaster to 10 people now.
Bill gator offered to buy the NMC at Coinmarketcap-rate, but since I can't withdraw, I can't do that today. If Poloniex fixes withdrawals, I'll distribute the proceeds too. I'll be a small amount, so
consolidate wisely when that happens.
If Poloniex doesn't fix withdrawals, that means the NMC is lost:
Disclaimer
Although unlikely, several things can fail. Off the top of my head:
~snip~
Exchanges can delist an altcoin.
~snip~
If this happens, your money is gone, just like my money. That's why I limit this thread to 0.01 BTC per person, consider it play money.
In that case I'll create a "contractual violation" Flag for Poloniex.
This will be the last Round for a while. Using 3 different exchanges made it more work than it was already, the delisting was unexpected and disappointing, and most of all: this is the second Round in a row that suffered big losses. I know we all knew the risk, and I know many participants (including myself) considered the 0.01
BTC gone the moment we started this, but still, running a loss-making-Roller-Coaster doesn't feel right.
If someone else wants to host this, I'll be happy to join. I just don't want to be the one to let people down again

Based on the above list, I've paid 0.00563994
