*EDIT* I was attempting to make my first post on the EOStalk.io forum. I was EOStalk.io was integrated with the STEEM blockchain. What I wasn't aware of is that my post on the message board would show up in my Steemit feed, so for anyone reading this wondering where the context is, that's the explanation. It's here, and I don't want to delete it, so let's just keep the EOS conversation going. My question below and curiosities on EOS distribution versus straight exchange trading still stands.
Hey, everyone! My name is Lars, I'mon Steemit. I saw the announcement for EOStalk.io a few weeks ago and have been meaning to post since. Tonight is the first chance I've had to sit down and make a brief introduction and ask question that's been on my mind.
I'm currently holding just over 2,000 EOS. I've bought them all through the EOS distribution app. Of the 33 or so rounds that've ended so far, I've had a variety of results [...none as good as round 0 of course]. The last few have actually ended above what I'm seeing EOS trading for on the exchanges.
I guess I'm just curious if there's any real benefit to buying EOS through distribution? I guess there are still rounds ending at $1.30 or less, but beyond that possibility?
Just wondering what the EOS community thinks. A few friends in Minneapolis turned me on to Steemit last year. I never imagined in this time I'd be going through the process of buying something as elusive as EOS. I'm still a little wet behind the ears with a lot of the cryptocurrency strategies.
Thanks! Looking forward to posting here more often.
