Well there was a month gap between Iconomi's whitepaper formalisation and the ICO so I would say about a month but it could be more or less. It's hard say without the knowledge of Iconomi's representatives.

so it just matter now whether they have the right dev team who can do all these in a matter of days?

IMHO,. Iconomi deserves its own blockcain. Why couldn't a separate blockchain interact with an ethereum smart contract? Then expand the platform's limits with DApp development. And give investors the option to choose how individual dividends are paid whether it be Lisk or Eth. Why put 3500 *+ investor's trust and value at risk (especially fiat investors) because Iconomi's success is currently dependent on Ethereum. Stratis released its own blockchain built to create private blockchains for a fraction of Iconomi's ICO investments. If others understand where I'm getting at... I think its fair to vote on a better solution such as an independent blockchain. And do this by treating every account as a delegate. Personally I would rather wait until Iconomi has the best opportunity to go public then go out on a limb with Ethers current status on work load stability. I bet we would have easily seen 21000 BTC if the DAO hack never happened...

PS: I really like the idea behind Iconomi but I'd rather get dividends in lisk.

All iconomi shares are sold out now. From now these can only be bought on the market. So all people who buy them are okay with receiving dividends in ETH.

Why give iconomi token holders other options? To pump the price for iconomi token?

New investors can invest into index fund, performance fund and the fund management platform. That's good for them and good for iconomi token holders.

Your suggestion is nice to have, but I am not sure it is more important than the above.

while investors can buy index fund and performance fund, the price pump can be good for marketing. it will grab the attention of new investors too.

someone111 I dont think the shares are set in stone as the Iconomi team were still mining the tokens last week. Also its not the fact that it could attract new investors but could be the difference between Iconomi's success and no success. Could you imagine a half working platform's index with >3% invested in its own parent blockchain. Dividends are based on ethers success or else no one would spend their precious euro for ether. If that was the case who would want to hold a coin that gets dividends in Eth. There's a reason why ETC is a thing and has more volume and why there will be duplicates of Iconomi in the future because the idea behind dividends are a great idea, just not always in ether.

Don't you think ICONOMI is a duplicate? ANTshares also have this feature as far as i know, i'm just not sure if they also offer dividends but yes the idea of index fund and performance fund is also on antshare.
