Title: donating to AGS: "Then what?"
Post by: progmac on February 10, 2014, 07:27:05 pm
I have noticed a question pop up now and again on here, the PTS forum, reddit, and similar places.

The question is basically, "so I donate my PTS (or BTC) to the Angelshares address, then what?"

I have been considering this. And it brings me to the most remarkable concept of this technology. A concept that those of us on forums like this already take for granted.

Fundamentally, we just aren't used to this. When I pay my landlord rent in cash, I trust that he will not forget that I gave him his rent, lose the money, or outright lie. When I buy an Apple LISA on ebay, I trust that the person on the other end really is a person with an old computer and that they will send it to the address that I provide.

So how is it that I 'simply donate' my PTS or BTC for AGS? It doesn't compute. Shouldn't I be providing an email address? Shouldn't you be giving me a receipt? Or something? So I donate, and then what?

THERE IS NO THEN WHAT.

And that's why this tech can change everything.

The then what... wait for a product to be released, import your wallet, and collect your shares.

So in theory is like that:

I have keyhote, i have donated to Bitshare-x. Now we will wait for bitshare x to be released. then we import our wallet.dat into new wallet for bitshare x. corect?

A little question. if i donated pts from my bitshare-pts wallet. how can i claim my AGS?

You will get them both at the same time when you import your PTS wallet.
