[Updated Cautionary Notes]
Be sure to have your PTS & DNS out of the exchanges
and back in your wallets on Nov 5th.
BTER and BTC38 will honor DNS
but will have to stay in business two years to issue them as they vest.
How about PTS deposited at exchanges?
Why ensure that exchanges honor DNS but not PTS?
@ Stan / I3: can you please clarify the above?
When I purchased PTS, the sales pitch was that it was the official sharedrop target of I3 upcoming DACs and the recommanded sharedrop target for future Bitstamp based DACs, it was supposed to receive sharedrops of MUSIC and PLAY, and exchanges such as BTER were supposed to honor all the official sharedrops from I3. I therefore purchased a decent amount of PTS, and deposited it to BTER to let them manage on my behalf the MUSIC and PLAY sharedrop and any other upcoming sharedrop that would potentially occur. I followed the matter until the MUSIC snapshot, did obseve that by balance had been properly snapshotted for MUSIC, and went on with other things (I have a life, and do not have the time to read regularly the forums of everything I invest in).
Two months later, I find that in the meantime:
PTS was stripped from its only meaningful role as official sharedrop target of I3 and recommanded sharedrop target of the future Bitstamp based DACs.
PTS lost most of its value due to the above.
BTER didn't honor the BTS sharedrop on PTS and didn't send me any of the BTS (locked or not) I was supposed to receive folowing the merger.
BTER isn't showing any sign that they are working on it and will eventually (albeit late) honor the BTS sharedrop.
PLAY isn't being shareddropped on PTS anymore unlike what was promised. It's now being sharedrop on PTS, and I'm not getting any of it since I haven't got my BTS from the BTS sharedrop on PTS.
There is no information anywhere including in I3's announcement about whether exchanges are supposed to honor the BTS sharedrop on PTS.
The most puzzling thing is that in the quote from Stan I gave above from the october announcement, it appears that I3 did discuss with BTER and BTC38 to confirm that they were going to honor the BTS sharedrop on DNS, but didn't confirm the same about PTS or at least didn't mention it in the announcement so that neither the exchanges nor the exchange users know if officially exchanges should be honoring the BTS sharedrop on PTS. WTF.
Please clarify
