RE: Little Help With Understanding The Peerplays Sharedrop

in #peerplays8 years ago

The equivalent value is just shown for informational purposes, it doesn't mean you have actual BTS. You would need to purchase actual BTS to participate in the sharedrop.

Thanks for the reply.
Does that mean that the Peerplays token holders will not benefit from the sharedrop?

correct, the peerplays token holders will get their share from holding the token, but the bts sharedrop is a separate thing.

So why was it so important for tier 1 and tier 2 holders move their tokens to the exchange?

I guess one of the reason, will be for OpenLedger to increase in trade volume. At the moment, it is almost impossible to trade in OpenLedger. The volume is too low, and for most traders looking to short, it is very common for the graph price to hit the desired price, but in most cases, their BTS do not get sold.

One scary factor will honestly be security. If coins get stolen in this 16days, all projects by Dan and Ned will be affected, greatly affected. Steemit happened once, and that should be it. If it happens again, the hopes of Openledger becoming a mainstream exchange will be gone, and a fair share of Bitshares and Peerplays supporters will probably go as well.

To my knowledge, peerplays were only holdable/tradeable on BitShares (but I could be wrong). The press releases I've seen have all been warning BTS holders not to keep their shares on an exchange during the snapshot interval if they want to participate in the sharedrop.

Ok, so are my calculations correct if someone were to purchase 10,000,000 BTS, they should expect to gain ~200 Peerplays token?

Sorry, I don't know, I haven't attempted to calculate the ratio for it.
