Nxt/Ardor developer Riker has stated that most probably the Ardor launch will be in September.
and the IGNIS ICO? At the same time?
from marenkar (the NXT marketing guy) on Ardor's reddit:
"Also, the snapshot date is not even announced yet and Jelurida will be announcing that soon"
this make me think the date is set and they wait to announce itiginis ICO? i thought that just need to hold next to receive ignis tokens.
the total IGNIS available will be 1 billion
500 millions will be distributed to NXT holders
the other 500 millions will be sold as an ICO
The date is not set yet, at least from my knowledge. I, more than anyone else, would like a date to be set. I get people asking me this everyday, even if it's not my decision to make.
Jelurida has announced more information now though:
The Ardor Genesis Snapshot will be performed at least two weeks after the end of the last JLRDA sale round.
We can infer some information from this because they also stated that the ICO will happen late July or early August and that there will be multiple rounds.
