i don't know if we can get str off invite code now, if we can get str from invite code on other account then yes they're worth some str/btc.

@tokeweed Hey, I'm the Stellar community manager 

Yes! Joyce (cofounder, executive director) just spoke at a United Nations conference on how digital currency can help with remittances worldwide:

We have a choice: we can allow fees to remain high, effectively serving as a tax on migrants who send money home. Or we can reduce the cost of remittances and put billions of dollars back into the pockets of the world’s poorest, catalyzing further economic growth.

With Stellar as the world’s universal network, we could connect the world’s 180 currencies in two to five seconds, reducing the transaction fees and transfer delays associated with cross-border payments and removing obstacles that prevent people from independently improving their lives.

Stellar still alive?  ripple suffered a huge drop recently but its still regularly in the news good or bad, where has stellar been throughout this?   Its mentioned above cryptsy might add it but if that ever happens by that the original STR could be trading 1:1 with Stellar as the price gets driven down from lack of interest.

Lot of talk but little action by the look of things...any update on the connectivity problems stellar has experienced?

This is still a thing?  I thought STR was already dead.

I'll invite someone and see if I and they receive any stellars, although I don't think they'll approve the FB, they'll most probably think it's a fake account.

When are they going to start the blockchain based distribution?

Stellar's been up to a few things:

-test net client demo built with JS: https://jsfiddle.net/stellardev/rxsd1fd0/
-new Stellar Go library: https://github.com/stellar/go-stellar-base
-why multi-sig matters on Stellar: http://pollen23.com/pass-it-pass-it/
-check irc #stellar-dev and #stellar for day to day updates on what SDF and the Stellar community are working on (or slack.stellar.org)

In terms of the connectivity problems, they should be resolved now. It's just related to the same reasons we're working on a more scalable, stable network (which should be live sometime this summer). Feel free to hop on our dev IRC (#stellar-dev) for more technical details about it. https://www.stellar.org/blog/stellar-consensus-protocol-proof-code/.

When are they going to start the blockchain based distribution?

The bitcoin giveaway will take place after the new network goes live.

Few weeks ago it was a good price to buy and now to sell higher.
There is a website to check the stellar value in real time: stellarvalue.org
Good Luck.
