Please put my sell order on the book: 1750 MSC for sale at 0.7 BTC each.

I previously said I was going to wait for the distributed exchange before trying to sell these, but Ron (our Executive Director) pointed out that if someone is willing to pay this price before then I should make the coins available. If this order gets filled before the DEX is live, that would mean I could work on Mastercoin full-time sooner than otherwise.

I realize this sell order is a ways away from the current price, but maybe now people will stop complaining about the lack of coins available to buy

Why not sell 12,250 MSC @ 0.1? The MSC would sell much faster and you'd still have ~90% of your MSC. The news alone of you coming on board full time would put a lot of uncertainty to rest and up the price, increasing the value of your remaining MSC holdings. Yes you can argue that if you got hit by a bus then MSC would live on regardless, but at the same time a lot of people look to you to say something or provide an answer, including core devs. The future of MSC is much more decentralized, but in this early stage I don't think you can escape being of central importance. And it helps to have the core visionary looking at the field of possibilities and prioritizing the top projects. There's a lot of competition out there which is moving quickly, as you know...if we could get you on full time ASAP, plus the great devs already working on MSC, plus maybe even that Rob guy and his alleged badass company...that could be a dream team made in heaven!

Put me down for a measly 50 MSC @ 0.1. Only 12,245 MSC to go!

You know that's not so crazy... 12,250 MSC @ 0.1 would get his original investment back in full, leave him with ample MSC for the future and do a good job of distributing MSC and getting it out there to more people.

On the flip side, it would lower the price and Mastercoin would lose (?) ~30% of its backing.

Still, not so crazy..
