Again, I will repeat that they still have those opq tokens that were emitted to replace those rejected prl tokens in their possession and they have 27 millions extra tokens with no real allocation for 7 million tokens. Bruno only dumped 3 millions

Someone did receive Opacity tokens for those legit Pearl tokens (emphasis on legit).  It just wasn’t you because you bought tokens after the snapshot on a risky exchange.  The extra tokens generated were never intended to people for transactions after the snapshot.  


True. Although I feel sympathy for Islapdonkey's wasted ETH, he should refrain from saying untrue statements. Devs didn't keep the tokens, just someone else got them instead of Islapdonkey. Someone who kept PRL at the time of snapshot. Also he should refrain from using rude words and spamming here, he must have realized it won't help. He is just depreciating tokens that he and other investors still own.

  SMFH the ignorance or feign of ignorance been displayed is quite amazing. There is an originally total supply of prl and when a new contract was elicted, that total amount was emitted plus an extra 27 million tokens was added to generate the total amount of opq tokens. So whether you had your token on kucoin, mew, topia, or whatever other eth wallet/dex, the same exact amount of opq was elicited to replace those prl token, thus the new total amount, representing the original prl total amount plus the added 27 million tokens.

  So every prl token in existence had the same amount of opq generated. Thus every coin including those that were present prior to the snapshot and post the snapshot all add up to create that initial prl token amount (you do realize that this snapshot didn't entail a broken chain or anything, this is just an eth token, every tokens were still active just as it were prior to the snapshot) So those coin that were rejected had comparable opq emitted to supplement it, just like your prl token that you had prior to snapshot had the same amount of comparable token created to supplement it.

@Islapdonkey, I am not sure you understand what they are trying to tell.

Lets see how this swap was done. I am not 100% sure, but if I understand correctly, it was done the following way:
 - developers generated the new tokens;
 - the number of those tokens is equal to the number of PRL, that existed at the time of when the announced "snapshot" ETH block 6607247 was generated; plus 27M tokens, but lets forget about them for a moment;
 - then they made a list of all the ETH addresses which had PRL tokens at the block 6607247, then manually (or automatically - not sure) sent appropriate number of OPQ tokens to those addresses

If the swap was indeed done that way, it means the person who sold you the PRL on the EtherDelta, has received "your" OPQ tokens instead of you. Those tokens are not at the possession of the developers anymore, but are at the possession of that guy. Basically he kinda "doublespent" them, if we use the term more generally.

That's all the guys above are trying to tell.

Still, I believe it would be correct if Bill Cordes and the team reimburse you in some way using the extra minted tokens, but this is up to their good will, of course. This swap was not handled the very best way (I believe so, but this is not the place to go into deep details), so they could make something to iron things out. But even if we don't try to find who is right and who is wrong, an unhappy investor like you spoils the atmosphere around the project, so it would be beneficial for the project to make him happy, even if it means spending some coins out of their own pockets.

But... I don't think us discussing this here, will help you to convince devs. Not sure if they are looking here at all.
