Update 3-24-18:1. Maduro announced on the 22nd that from the next day on it would be possible to buy directly through the website
www.elpetro.gob.ve petros in yuan, ruble, Turkish lira, euro, ethereum, bitcoin and xem.
2. Still today there isnt any possibility to indicate on that webpage that you want to buy petros in ruble, Turkish lira or xem. The only options continue to be dollar, euro, yuan, bitcoin and ethereum.
3. There is
no way to buy petros directly through the website. You can indicate the maximum amount you want to spent on petros in the currency selected and then, hopefully, will receive one day information on how and where to transfer your money and on how you will receive your petros.
4. Just today the
Nem account was updated with a new mosaic ico which informs us that
You will receive Petro at the end of ICO. According to the white paper the
ICO will end when the Petros of the first emission are exhausted.
5. The description of the new mosaic ico also informs, that it cannot be moved, contradicting the fact that it was created as transferable.
6. Maduro announced that the possibility to buy petros directly on the indicated website will last 15 days, but that this time might be prolonged. Given the fact next week public employees in Venezuela will not work, one should expect a prolongation.
7. The white paper is seriously out of date: There was no sale of tokens PETRO:PRESALE during pre-sale, there will be no way to exchange those tokens for petros VE:PTR.
