Counterparty uses Bitcoin like Etherium uses Gas, its about $2 worth of Bitcoin to send to the swap, by the way the Dev is paying for the Eth on the other end to send to your ERC-20 Address
By the way, what are the transaction fees on Eth? $0.12? Wasn't it the dev's bad desicion to use counterparty - so shouldn't he be debited for the swap?
It is not bad for the devs if some Covals are burnt because they are not swaped. Less supply of ERC-20-Covals means that devs have a better chance to cash out, finally.
Just ignorant.
Frankly speaking, I do not like writing such things, but... I feel you deserve an exception.
Stop whining. Your behavior is childish.
You tell - "Wasn't it the dev's bad desicion to use counterparty"?! Better ask yourself "wasn't it my bad decision to invest in Coval knowing it is a Counterparty token"?
Its your decisions and you are the responsible one. Stop blaming others for your faults and take responsibility for your actions. Grow up, basically.
On the one hand you are right - it was my bad desicion. On the other you are wrong, you are not in the position to close a discussion, whether you are annoyed or not. My point of view is that it is ignorant to expect -without any open explanation or involvement of the community- that all hodlers are willing to pay btc-transaction-fees for the swap. Instead it is argued, 'it is not so high' 'it is low' 'just $2'. This value judgement is not appropriate for all global citizens.
My decision to invest in Coval was based on the assumption that Emblem would allow a fast and almost feeless exchange of value. That was the outlook given by devs.
