I've read the white paper. The bi-monthly rebalancing and core mechanics seem really promising. Then I got to the atom bomb that says Im not allowed because I'm in the U.S.
Heartbreaking.
I almost want to back the ICO anyway, but it would really hurt to lose 2k like that when I was properly warned ahead of time.
Indeed US citizens are not allowed to take part of this ICO.
It's a shame! A lot of great ICO's would get a lot more funds if US was allowed.
But I always wondered: what if you do buy tokens as US citizen? What cant you do?
I'm thinking, but what prevents residents of the USA using VPN for example?
because this ban is essentially just a formal one, and programmatically it is unlikely to be banned at least for now
In my opinion, nothing can prevent from using VPN by these people. But its decision was made by devs and their ICO means their rules.
