I note that there is, as of yet, no explanation of why the "Icons" would ever want to issue an Icon Token, given that AM takes half of their sale money (much more than e.g. well-established platforms such as Kickstarter, GoFundMe or Patreon), and the idea is that, somehow, they will have obligations to anyone who has ever even held a certain amount of their respective Icon Token.

Edit: Oh, and the placeholders and typos in AM remain.

"Why would the artists sell merchandise when the company producing the merchandise would take a share of the profits?" You realize this is what you are asking, right? No, of course you don't. Nothing that I'm aware of prevents them from also using the other platforms you mentioned, so why are you acting like this is some either/or situation?  Roll Eyes

You also surely realize that a lot of the money raised for each IAO is used to promote the artist's coins, not just pocketed, right? What am I saying, of course you don't understand. You've demonstrated this over and over.

There are perks offered to holders of icon tokens as something akin to a club membership. How is this so hard for you to grasp? The fans get digital merchandise with membership perks - what you are oddly referring to as "obligations," even though nobody said all of the perks, or even any of them, obligate the artists to anything. The artist would decide what they wish to offer, IF ANYTHING.  

What placeholders and typos are you even talking about? The "coming soon" images on the Icon Tokens page? That's the only thing I can find. They haven't announced the next IAO, so why would it have anything but a placeholder??  

How does this in any way invalidate the business model, the major media advertising model, or the economics posted upthread?  

At least there is one thing you can grasp:


And the insults continue.

No I'm asking why, given many choices for essentially the same service (fanclub memberships/crowdfunding), why would they choose a service that is less established, takes a larger portion of the profit, and seems incapable of running a spellcheck on their main software product?

I dunno who hurt you, but if you've been stalking me on multiple sock accounts on multiple platforms for just about six years now.

Someone might've for all I know, but it sure ain't me.

I didn't know you existed five years ago, and haven't posted publicallly about you before this account went live. I try to avoid bringing more attention to things I suspect to be scams, but as you say, BCT is, indeed, kinda dead, so I'm feeling confident I'm not bringing in anyone new.
