i assume alot of people are gonna leave their coins on exchanges. what happens to the distribution then? do they exclude the known exchange addresses from the distribution? are the people who bought on the rise clever enough to realise they need to put the coins in a proper wallet? it's an absolute waste of money for them otherwise.
I am thinking the same thing..
People that leave coins on exchanges are playing russian roulette to being with. I don't even trust exchanges honoring swaps and drops. Look how BTER screwed over Peertracks and PLAY holders. If it's not in your wallet, you don't own it. The best devs can do is continue to communicate the message frequently about distribution.
The devs are are contacting the exchanges and will give an update on it when they have discussed the matter with them.
The big exchanges like btc38 and poloniex would likely give ardor to nxt holders, but we'll have to wait for confirmation. I doubt the devs trust bter or that many people have left coins on it because it wouldn't let them withdraw crypti coins for the lisk coin swap. The devs could work out which are the majority of bter's wallets.
Have you communicated with the exchanges for the snapshot? Or the only way is by keeping NXT in our wallets?
We'll update about this once we have this completely clear. We are contacting the exchanges, yes.
We'll give you clear communication about this.
