I'm not counting atoms.......... some factors to consider
The ICO price was $20 to $25. BCT today that's 16k to 20k sats. 45-55k would mean an ICO price of 56 to 69 cents

The difference between 16k & 55k = profit
You don't factor in a years worth of staking rewards
Over the year at times the price dropped to 10k lows. If the price dropped to 12k I would buy as much as I could afford
Sure

By that logic anybody who held their bitcoins from 2015 made an easy 500-600% ROI without having to move a finger, let alone shill for some shitcoin.
ION was never bought or sold for USD but sure, it's nice to use USD as your ROI measure as it makes it look better than it is. Why not GBP or VEF, would look even better.
I did factor in staking, I even mentioned in my post that your cost basis would have to be 16k if you managed to double your IONs via staking, which is actually impossible now that you're claiming you were buying them over the past year. But that's of course irrelevant with your alternative facts and creative math.
I'm not looking to sell anytime soon so to ME pricing TODAY is irrelevant. Once upon a time DASH was 50 cents now it's $71.... why not ION ?
Concerning Gravity I'm not avoiding anything........... I just don't want to comment on an incomplete product
Oh come on... you were never shy to comment on it. And how did it suddenly become "incomplete" if the whole point of delaying it for ~9 months was to make it "in-depth" etc?
not followed full diskussion but if someone invest with $ and just for a few min converted them to BTC to be able spend them at something that only accepts to be bough with $
then u can legitim calculate with the $ value of ur invest the day u spended the bitcoins
towards the $ value of ur invest today
and the ICO sell $ value was 0.20 per ION and today coinmarketcap show this moment 0.47 $ if ya consider that additional in that long timeframe u earned a lot with POS and or masternode and or ionomy staker u can easy estimate at least x3 value gain
Yeah right. If BTC crashed to $200 tomorrow and ION was still trading at 40k sat the whales would be bragging about it holding its BTC price and would tell us to ignore the pesky USD. Probably blame BTC exchange rate within the same sentence. Same fallacies as with any other shitcoiner.
