Let's say you've got 10,000 EQT and you miss the 10-day "swap" window. Does that mean you're out 6,000 dollars (at the current price of 60 cents per EQT)?
If so, there definitely needs to be a much longer window than 10 days. People invest in projects like this with the idea of "holding" long term; they're not constantly checking the price or threads like this (they're expecting months or maybe even a year or more to pass before the project really takes off). It's insane to think they'd just lose all their money because they didn't hear about a "swap" that happened over a 10-day period.
On that note: Isn't there some way to eliminate the "window?" If Bitcoin Cash automatically went to everyone who owned Bitcoin, isn't there a way to accomplish something similar with the new EQT token?
