The first window is ending and now all the fever seems to be claiming those tokens and hitting the exchange. I’m not even bothering to claim and here is why:
I am not selling my EOS! I want to get more and I will get more. I want to hold as much stake as possible when this sale ends. I will get a lot more when the price drops. And it will drop when people realize this is not some get rich quick ICO.
This is long term. Long long term. Most people will not have enough foresight and patience to reap the rewards of holding EOS and investing in the network. And that is good. More room for us who do want to build to get some cheaper EOS.
Don’t get me wrong the huge amount of money that was raised in the first window is good. The team will have resources to build something great. Although the incentive will not be as powerful with having all the money in advance. Hunger is a great incentive. But if they ever wheiver in their result we can jump in! Thats why its open source.
So why should I waste my gas to claim? No need. They are good where they are for now as long as I don’t forget to claim at the end and register my key(reminder set! Like I’dd forget:))
So this is me. Eyes peeled for when the get rich quick schemers get out to “cut their losses”. Ready to jump in and grab some more. Sharpening my dev skills to be able to help and build. And I don’t think I am the only one!
Congrats to block.one team and for a very successful start to their funding campaign! Go build your dream and make it great!
