I will give 1000 BTSX to anybody who gives me a good explanation why his/her PTS from before the end of the AGS donation period are not in the AGS fund already! (This prize has about $1,000,000 value in about 2-2,5 years in my estimation.)
The only way it makes sense is if you do not like one particular upcoming DAC and you want to sell them PTS shortly before its snapshot day and buy them after it. But which one don't you like? Music - great potential (even though I do not know if anybody is actually developing it). HackerFish is making the lottery (play) DAC into something great - not a simple casino but a platform for the casinos! Truthcoin is probably just a centralize business on a blockchain, but even so the potential market is in the hundred of millions or revenue....
PS
And sorry I will be the judge what I deem good explanation!
I do not like DAC A do not qualify!
Concrete example with numbers will increase your chances!
This offer is good for 5 days.

OK, I'll bite, since I still have PTS that I did not donate or sell. You are asking, basically, why did I hold onto it when I could have garnered a bigger impact via AGS donations? I did both, but I still have plenty of PTS.
Reason 1: The social consensus (f.k.a. the Social Contract) suggests that each DAC allocate
at least 10% each to PTS and AGS holders. It can be more than 10% (for example, I believe Music will allocate 25% to each). Initially, most AGS donors were known as investors, while the majority of PTS holders were miners. Now what if there's a reason that a new DAC wants to curry particular favor with miners? Perhaps, for some reason, they are better able to promote that new DAC? More tech savvy, perhaps, when that part of the community is most valuable to an emerging DAC? More loyal? My thought was (and still is) that it's quite possible the AGS holders might be viewed by a new DAC owner as more opportunistic, e.g. more likely to sell a stake, whereas PTS holders might be viewed as better longterm stakeholders. So could a new DAC allocate 10% to AGS and 25% to PTS?
Understand, I am not characterizing AGS donors this way, since I am one myself. But what if AGS holders pump-and-dump-killed a DAC and then public opinion broke in that direction? Or what if techies are really needed to help evangelize and explain a new DAC to the world? I wanted to hedge my bets there.
Reason 2: What if PTS gets a really cool upgrade, or gets cloned with an airdrop to old PTS holders, and its holders come out ahead?
I know there are arguments against both of these. But I think either of these reasons are enough to keep some PTS in my wallet.
EDIT: typo fixed.
