So we enter Round 2 for the fight to obtain some Pillar Tokens; round one [the Pre-sale] lasted all of 34 minutes!! It was due to last about 48 hours!!
A few facts and figures from the Pre-sale for your consideration.
The pre-sale of 44 million tokens sold out in 34 minutes, raising about $4.2 million in ether. The team are working on further analysis, but they received over 4,000 requests to the smart contract and ONLY1,400 were successful.
The vast majority were for 10 ether or so, 0nly a few people got more than 200 ETH. Unfortunately, about 2,600 orders did not get filled for various reasons, mostly because they were too late.
I was one of the lucky ones as the chances of getting tokens in the presale was almost 2:1 against.
By the numbers:
Total sale____________________ __20,000.05 eth
Participants____________________1430
Average_____________________ __12.9 eth
Maximum_____________________ _250 eth
Minimum_______________________0.0005 eth
Total unique rejected_____________16247.81 eth ($3.2m)
No. unique addresses rejected_____1049
Avg. payment_________________ __15.4 eth
Total Rejection________________ __2605 eth
Gas Rejection___________________145 eth
To summarise:
Note the average was 15 ETH, median was around 10 ETH. That means this presale was overwhelmed by small buyers/supporters of the project.
Allegedly there was one “whale,” whose bid of 2,000 ETH was rejected. Twice!! hehe
I have seen on Youtube and many chat rooms that many were disappointed to not get in; I can't even imagine the numbers who didn't even tr as they saw the emails coming out saying the sale had ended.
So to me, it looks like Saturday could be just as manic in the 60 hour sale!!
Maybe we should have sweep stake on how long it lasts. lol
So, it's all about 8am on Saturday now and those unlucky will have to pay 9% more than us lucky ones, but to be honest I suspect this will be nothing in the long term, but that is only my opinion.
Yes, I'm excited, but it looks like may others are too.
If you weren't lucky enough to get in on the pre-sale it's not long until the main sale which starts on Saturday at 8AM British Summer Time.
Please be careful of any scammers and phishing.
