ALSO, how do you know those 62 votes are actual investors? Anyone can vote in that poll, even sockpuppets.
Either you devs have not thought this through or you had your mind decided before the poll.
Who is this majority? I see that term thrown about, but to be a majority, wouldn't the majority of coin owners need to vote?
The poll didn't even require people to own any crypti to vote. So those who missed the IPO who still wanted coins, would obviously vote for an early sale.
And yep, it's not a certainty that those waiting would have received coins. But the early sale turns uncertainty into no possibility. By the way, that dev blog has a typo -- with the majority voting positevly.
While it was certainly our concern, there was no better alternative as there is no currently way to prove that one holds Crypti (we will consider doing a voting app on top of the custom block-chain for such cases). Therefore, we also used the thread posts to evaluate the community feedback, and while the opinions ranged, there consensus was towards the positive.
Do note, that the link to the poll was (and still is) posted in CRSALE on Bter, giving everyone an opportunity to vote.
Thanks for the typo - fixed.
