I have 1,000 PURE. I wasn't updated for the last month with my wallet so I kept staking, at first I was staking at the wrong old chain, then I was staking finally in the correct chain, but then the swap window was like only available for 1 fucking week? That's insane I believed in this project since day 1, I kept the coins I mined since last year. and now I can't even swap them to PUREX??

Ya pretty much the worst swap in the history of swaps

Well, I've been part of a couple that were worse, but this hasn't been a good one, no.

Not only the short timespan, but also it seems the dev didn't send enough PureX to CoinExchange to do the swap, thus an almost 2 week delay and so far the price after a 2:1 swap has only reached a high of 4100 sats [equivalent to 2050 sats PURE price] (although I only saw the highest trade at 3488 sats [equivalent to 1744 sats PURE price]). Before the swap announcement PURE was trading at around 18-23k sats [equivalent of 36-46k PureX] and although some of the decline in price between then and now has been a drop in Bitcoin and the usual pull-out of capital from alts, these posts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2335448.msg37249290#msg37249290 and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2335448.msg39182714#msg39182714) note that there was a significant drop on the rumours of a swap and the full announcement.

A small number of people were manually swapped first (and a handful of 'lucky' ones a bit later) and so have been getting huge MN rewards for weeks before the rest of us could start.

I tried to buy enough for a masternode after the swap (but was short on capital and so still don't have enough) and bought PURE at an average of just under 3000 sats, but I now need PureX to reach at least 6k sats to make my money back and, at the time of writing, PureX has a last trade price of 2845 sats...
