Dear Team Iconomi,

I'm extremely happy that you've decided to take up some of my advices in the past. I have a small request -- I'd really like to get in touch with the core team if possible, because I believe I can make a lot more contributions and help the Iconomi ecosystem grow exponentially. I've signed up for a Slack account, but I didn't see the core team there. I'd really love to have a private conversation with Jani or Daniel if possible. I have some really crazy but awesome ideas I'd like to share with you in private. Grin

The truth is I'm one of the biggest ICO holders of ICN (top 10 - proof available). I am also a director of an US-based asset management company. I believe you're on the right path, and I've got so much to contribute. This is my space. I've decided to stick with Iconomi long-term, and I'd really love to share my knowledge and thinking with you. I'm thinking that I might have a way to help you break into the US market.

Just point me in the right direction if you're reading this, and I'd really like to have a word with you.

PS: Please ignore all the naysayers on this thread. They are amateurs, and they don't know what they're talking about.

And Big THANK YOU for the great news today! Cheers!

I have a drastic suggestion for the Iconomi Investment Team (I believe it's headed by Daniel Zakrisson).

It is my understanding that Iconomi.Performance Fund (or ICNP for short) typically only invests in Crypto startup with potentials.

However, as ICN's marketcap falls below its fair valuation, I'd highly advise the Investment Team (and Daniel) to consider initiate a "BuyBack Program." This will have 3 major advantages:

1. By reducing the payout to 3rd-party investors, Iconomi platform will drastically increase its profit margin.

2. By holding ICN in ICNP fund, the dividend will provide a steady stream of guaranteed income that cannot be found in other Crypto financial products today.

3. If you play it right, the move will drastically reduce any group or individual's ability to manipulate the market. I do not wish to elaborate here, but a smart guy like Daniel would surely know what I'm getting at. Wink

All major corporations has "stock buyback" program at one point, so why can't Iconomi have one too when the market cap has fallen below its fair valuation?

Please think about it if you haven't already. Cheesy

This is bullshit and is probably all orchestrated within the team that seems, I'm sorry to say this, shady. Changing such important aspects as promising ETH "dividends" before ICO and during ICO to buyback is something that should be voted at least, not simply decided without giving investors a chance to decide.

It's obviously completely manipulated as most things in crypto. It has been a nice ride so far with ICN, bought some in ICO and a lot more after ICO below ICO price, traded it back on the first run up, bought more back, but now I have only half of ICO left and it will stay this way.

If ICN ever manages to become what we hoped to become, I still have enough and since all ICO investment is completely covered, I don't care, but I feel sorry for noobs who were buying this shit on the high and will probably still. This buybacks will be peanuts taken from the market, that will soon get overflown with additional amount reserved for team, advisors etc.

This is manipulation at it's finest. Good job.

The amount of money used to buy back ICN is the exact amount money used to pay out as dividends.
If you have the feeling that this will be peanuts, then I´m wondering why you´ve initially invested into the project at all?!

You are missing the point. It's their MO that is the main issue here and this will bite the team back. Don't worry, I still have enough eggs in this basket for my liking. Ignoring PM's shows the real attitude too.
