Also a moot point but votings very simple for common stockholders, I received several voting forms from my brokers in the post yesterday, they're laid out with tick boxes for voting decisions, which you can submit by mail, telephone or online at www.proxypush.com/IBUS. You authorize someone to give a proxy vote on your behalf, I can't understand why you think this is run through lawyers?

Hi there, I get this voting forms as well. Interactive brokers sends them to my home and I can choose to vote. But if you're a little start-up creating an App for Iphone and Android, how can this be
done? It can't. That's one of the great things when creating a DCO and doing a crowdsale. The coins/tokens make you able to vote on subjects for the little start-up as well, without the need for them to be traded on the NASDAQ or so. It makes smaller investors able to invest in little companies as well, so not only the big VC's and investment firms are able to get in, you should be able to as well. When it comes to cryptoequity I even think people should have the same rights as VC's as well. I wish I was able to get in to Oculus or Uber when they were small. The same for PONO, they made you able to invest in them, but you needed at least $5000 (and be in the US?) to do so. What I hope is that this will become different in the future. I think it would be great when even a 19 year old in India is able to become a "stockholder" or at least has the same rights as the big guys. Even if he has only $20 to invest. That's why I volunteered for Swarm. We should all be able to invest in little start-ups and crowdsales. And when a new Uber or Oculus gets funded, we should get more than an early buy of their product or a T-shirt, we should be able to get the same rights as VC's and others. That's my dream Cool

I'm planning a crowdsale by the end of the year and have come up with a different conclusion on how to separate myself from a security, while still giving a solid incentive to investors. I'd be interested to hear what you think, the plan may change, and as of yet I haven't received any legal advice on the matter.

That's great. Did you had a look at the DCO-model?

Yes I did have a read about it, seems very much like common stock, hence my questioning of how it solves any legal issues. Will be interesting to watch how it evolves.
