I see plenty of Bittrex investors buying on Poloniex at sub-ITO price, then selling an equivalent amount of their captive BLOCK into the Bittrex buywall. Cross-exchange arbitrage.
I believe deposits and withdrawals are closed during this 48 hour so you can't arbitrage. Yes I CAN. Withdraw is closed for Bloks, not bitcoins I can sell all my block's on bittrex, then imediatelly I CAN withdraw all received BTC's right into poloniex, and easy re-buy about +10% more bloks on poloniex. Why do you think I can't ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) ?

I don't foresee any problem with buybacks bringing the invested BTC below the go-ahead threshold.
It should be fairly simple to create another mini-ITO using BTC at potentially a slightly discounted price on CoinGateway (since presumably they're still set up for it), to make up the shortfall.
Or revise the go-ahead threshold downward.
Or make up the shortfall in a private deal with a single angel investor.
My point is, there are several ways to ensure the continuation of the project while still honouring its initial rules.
I was thinking the same.I don't see the point to stop this project,while there are several of us who wants this to succeed.There is always a way to make it happen. In other words, both of you believe the continuation of changing the rules set by the coin itself until it works is a perfectly fine business model. Bravo. What about those who have pulled back the curtain and do not like what they see? We are not talking about the business model,don't go on sidetrack here.What we are saying is that in case we don't reach the 850BTC amount,it should not be an obstacle to stop the project. For the person who doesn't like what they see,there is always an option to trade it back i think.Even with a small loss,but it is possible./Always have to count with a loss even in the real world/

Round about 80 BTC have been refunded. Hope the guy which mentioned that 1150 BTC had been invested, had counted right.
Hope this fudsters will stop their childish panic sells.

Those Blocks selling under .00025 came from coingateway, not polo. The new owner wouldn't have the TX history with coingateway, so they would not receive a refund from them. So they would be left holding a bag if they can't refund them with polo.

A lot of us agree and there will remain great value to this project regardless of the buy-back. Most are wanting a reduction in supply so there really are multiple ways to look at this entire landscape. I think the DEV's will get the funds they need and the folks that stay in will have a nice investment.

You and Synechist reach out to Bittrex and ask to stop the trading Now!. This is completly against ITO rules and trading should not be allowed during the refund period. we cannot even check for real how many bitcoins have been sold as they are adding buys at 0.00025. Please reach out to them and let them address this issue.

This is everything about the business model. You are recommending that the ito be changed in order to force the continuation of the project if need be. And to those that wanted out you are telling to eat a loss. Why can't you eat the loss? and stop thinking the rules should be changed to suit your opinion for the day.

Hopefully a large investor that believes in the project does come along and sets a very large wall at 0.00025001, which results in a jubilant rejoice as BlockNet ITO succeeds it's funding minimum.
If I had the funds, I'd do it. But alas, I'm just a small fish.
Do it....you know you want to. Save the future of crypto!
Sorry, had multiple conversations with myself at the same time.

Not that I was made aware of. You seem to be afraid of the real questions and just want to gloss anything over that is unpleasant, like a used car salesman. Stop being afraid of the truth so much so that you are willing to lie, cheat and steal from others to make yourself "right".

"When you believe in things that you don't understand Then you suffer..." -Stevie Wonder https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDZFf0pm0SE

Yea, this refund is pretty messed up. With even 1 BTC you can many times over buy at 0.000252 and sell at 0.00025, rinse and repeat and completely mess up the numbers. It is not an accurate reflection of people who truly want refunds.
This entire ITO is botched, especially with Poloniex open trading...

If you're wondering who unicornfarts was (one of the most prolific Block trolls), of course it turns out he was none other than a sockpuppet account for long time XC troll rdnkjdi ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FJP6ygTZ.jpg&t=665&c=3JiOIYvtPMD4yA) And danisdone was him too. I wonder how many other of these trolls accounts that have popped up are created by rdnkjdi. Such actions would be illegal in a regulated market.

But that's not what's happening. Most of the orders are sells with very few buys.

It's a site rule that if the person who created a self moderated topic asks someone to leave the topic and they don't leave that they will get banned by the site admin. So whilst there is nothing literally stopping them from continue to post, they run the risk of being site banned.
