I was thinking today how it would be unfair if they only issued token for USD value for the 45% as the money will be frozen and unable to be used to invest in something until it is back to it's current value but hearing that they are issuing individual tokens for each currency makes it perfectly fair now.

The only unfair thing now I see is people who were in fiat at the time but shouldn't have traded to fiat to begin with. Always believe in BTC.

you only look at it from a "hodler" perspective, which is odd -- why the hell would such a person keep coins on an exchange? if you "always believe in BTC" then you wouldn't be trading it against other coins, either.

freezing the asset value at the time of the force majeure puts everyone in the same boat, rather than favoring crypto holders.

People who were in fiat at the time were in fiat because they were probably half way through a short trade.
Given slightly different timing we would have been back in coin and better off than people who hadnt done the trade in the beggining.

damn straight. those of us holding USD at the time made the exact right call. all the other exchanges continued downwards. i had bids at $2350-2400 and they probably would have been hit if vinnik's dumb ass was vacationing in odessa instead of greece.
