The imminent Bitcoin network update that is coming at the end of the month seems to have the unforeseen side effect of halting the SALT ICO. Even with the fear of Bitcoin falling into a black hole or possibly losing value; the price is continuing upward. But fear is still in the air.
For those interested in jumping in on the SALT ICO be ready to wait. The forces behind the SALT Lending ICO are putting a pause on things for now. I assume this must be for the sake of it's contributors whom will be sending Bitcoin and Ethereum as payment for SALT tokens. It would be a painful realization to find out that your precious Bitcoin just disappeared. But still, I believe it will be worth a wait to get in this promising new cryptocurrency.
The sign up process for the ICO is straightforward. After setting up an account to be put on a waitlist to participate in the ICO, an email is sent to activate your account. After clicking the activation link and being given a message that your account was successfully activated, there is yet another message that states "Your email must be approved by SALT in order to access the token sale. Please note: Access and approval onto the SALT Membership platform will resume after the Bitcoin network update, and in the order in which they were received." So, once you've completed the sign up process, you're placed on a wait list. This wait list seems to be indefinite thanks, most likely, to the Bitcoin network update. I can be bumped up on the wait list by anyone that follows this link to sign up for the SALT ICO. If you share your referral link, which is sent via email after registering for the ICO, you will be able to share it to be bumped higher on the list as well.
My fingers are crossed in anticipation.
