Easily said, there are over 100 coins out there, not sure how we're expected to know when to check for a complete change in a coin rendering all previous coins worthless. Its not practical to check every thread on every coin, constantly.

Pretty much - that's why after losing some MMXIV coin due to an incompetent dev - I swore off following any other BS that the guy put out. Fortunately since I was actively mining ruby - I happened to notice the note to move them all to bittrex before the date. I'm sure I still ended up losing some due to the time between being mined and the time that bittrex upgraded, etc, I think I left with about the right amount on this one.

Overall though - I'm against any coin that does a hard fork and says to previous holders - too bad, so sad, you lose, game over, up yours and you should have followed the forum posts....

I'm sure you have not invested in all 100 coins.
This dev gave you a full months notice in regards to the exchange to PoS. If you have invested in a coin and aren't looking to it for over a month you should ask yourself if you should have invested in it in the first place because you don't seem to care about the money/btc you invested.

I'm not trashing on all those who lost coins due to the exchange but remember there is no easy money anno 2014. Make sure you keep your old wallet.dat file and private keys because the overall Ruby community is tight and is preparing something to help those who have lost coins due to the exchange.

Swaps always leave people behind and for this reason they suck. There should be at least a 6 month window on swaps for those that invest but dont have time to follow threads.
Also, why dont coins have email lists so investors can receive news and updates without having to search for them? Seems elementary really.

The good news on this one is that the Ruby team has been around the block so hopefully they are setting up a safety net for those who missed the swap.

Looking forward to staking
