Stop looking at the short term profits and concentrate on long term, e.g several years. If this thing ever really takes on the world, but I mean it really gets used world wide, prices of $1,000+ per 1 ETH are easily reachable.

So no, you are not late to the party in my opinion!

I don't care since I have put 100 ETH into DAO that I bought in January when prices of 1 ETH were sub $1. Granted, this was about 2 BTCs worth of Ethereum at the moment of locking ETH for the DAO.

Furthermore, you are already assuming that the Ethereum price will go down surely around June 1st. Why are you so sure? One good piece of news in the next 3 weeks and the price can shoot up to 0.025. Then again one bad news and the price can head the other direction, but welcome to the world of investing since this would be nothing buy a pure speculation.

And another thing, I am about 98% sure that the alleged BTC halving pump will never happen. We are about 2 months from halving and the price is not moving at all. The block size consensus is at the dead lock and I am ready to bet anything that the halving is already priced in.

Disclaimer: I own a nice amount of BTC and ETH, about 50-50 ratio and I would like to see a Bitcoin halving pump, and ever since December - January I believed that this pump will happen surely, buy mate it's already May 10th. I have lost my faith of this pump, plain and simple.

Guys, don't forget that you can get out of the DAO by splitting the DAO after the crowd funding ends, after 28 days. So essentially you are not risking a great thing. If you don't like the price when this thing launches, you just split it and get your 1 ETH for 100 DAOs. You will probably even make a buck or two since there will be people that will invest for 1.5 ETH for 100 DAOs. Of course, I can't guarantee that ETH price won't plunge as well compared to BTC.

In a sense, this is a first fair crowd funding ever in crypto. Absolutely no premine and you can get your money back (Ethers) when crowd funding completes. Don't forget a little risk that ETH price might plunge comparing to Bitcoin!

Above reasons are enough for me to give a shoot to this thing!

Good luck to us all anyways!

So about 3 time increase! I wonder can The DAO do the same thing!!

Mist mate!

What was the ICO price of 1 token?

Thanks

So you will be basically able to go back to ETH anytime you want, right?

Also if we decide to go back to ETH, would the price be 100 DAOs for 1 ETH or the price would be whatever current price on the market is?

Thanks for shading some light on these unknowns guys!

I am looking to invest into DAO and I risk to ask a really dumb question, but I will ask it anyways.

I see that in the description of the DAO, it stands that people that are not OK with the propositions and voting can decide to ask for their Ethers back. Does this mean we would get the same 1 ETH for 100 DAOs like during the ICO?

Or have I missed something?

Deal done, closing the thread! Thanks to Carlo!!

Thanks mate, I just PMed you!

Hey guys, title says it all. I am in a need of small amount and I am looking to do this tonight. This account is of course a vouch that I won't chargeback. Thanks

Hello,

I would like to join the campaign together with avatar bonus. Please let me know if i am accepted.

Thanks.

So am I understanding this right that soon there will be new member openings?

Thanks

What do you expect from a little market with no regulation at all?! Just give it time. As the whole crypto market grows, this will be less and less possible. But yes, this will take some time of course!

Exactly this! People don't realize that their sync times depend completely of their hardware and connection speed. My 7 year old laptop with 2gb of RAM took a week to sync with constant crashes. I have just gotten new Aspire Nitro, 8gb of RAM and powerful quad core. I have synced whole 1,3M blocks in less than 10 hours without any crashes and doing all of this over WIFI, not even connecting LAN.

The only problem you can encounter with ETH wallet is time synchronization problem which is easily fixable by changing time servers where your date and time is updated. Everything else depends on your hardware and connection speeds. And it's the same with any other wallet out there, even Bitcoin Core.

Cheers!

You can like it as much as you want but this ain't gonna happen. Total supply in the end will be between 90-100 million, depending on when will Casper come alive and with small or none inflation rate.

Thanks, yes I am on Windows. Which server should I choose?

It has been asked probably numerous times, but what's the easiest way to check my computer's time and where to check it. Also how do I sync the time in the easiest way? My client has been stuck and it's not updating.

Exactly this. You know, at one moment in history 1 Btc was under a dollar. Then it shot up above $10 at one moment. I bet there was bunch of people thinking they are late to the party as well. Look at it now at $400 or when it even touched $1200. You need to keep things in perspective!

I don't think you are an idiot. It's still not late, moreover it's very early to grab a piece of Ethereum pie. If this is headed where we all suspect it's headed, this is still a great time to get in.
