For those that haven't seen, Merit started a Genesis Block Sale. We will be running a 555-day auction (about 18 months) to help fund the project over the long term.

It's 27000 MRT a day (about 15 million in 18 months) distributed proportionally to those that send in BTC for that day's round.

For example, if you send in 0.1 BTC and the round gets 0.5 BTC in total, you will receive 0.1/0.5 or 20% of the MRT that day. 20% of 27000 MRT is 5400 MRT.
