The price traded in the exchanges at the moment, is far from the initial price, is very devalued, but it isn't only with XBASE, other projects are also in the same situation or even worse. Perhaps the launch of the exchange brings again the confidence of investors.
Yep, bad lock-up strategy imo. I don't have any doubt that they're working, just that releasing token and unlocking it can make dumpers or those who look for quick profits sell tokens at any price that they wanted. I can even see in some groups people (bounty hunters) selling tokens at 0.5x ICO price, so sad that this happens as I myself bought some XBASE.
I hope the exchange will launch as soon as possible. MiFid II is also important.
