couple questions:
- all the early adopters are payed now
- where is the tsunami of hodl coins???
- why is the coins slowly rising at yobit ??
what happened
Those who time-locked for a year at the beginning are certainly starting to see their deposits unlock with the added interest. However, it's more of a continuous progression of more and more available coins rather than a specific date where everything gets unleased. Watch Fuzzbawls block explorer page to see how coins are being handled (locked vs unlocked) as time goes on and how many are coming up on unlock blocks (as mentioned previously the date is immaterial, it's the block height that determines when a coin unlocks).
As several HODL'ers have noted, they are seeing their coins unlock but are re-locking them immediately, usually due to the low price/demand. I would expect this practice to continue to be the case until the price rises to a reasonable level. That is, they have little to gain at the moment by dumping their coins on the market, so they are biding their time and continuing to take advantage of the bonus interest.
I'm very glad to see the price rising as I am very interested in seeing this coin succeed. That said, I would not read too much into the price rise at the moment. The fairly dramatic drop in btc price recently naturally (I think) improves the exchange rate of btc/hodl so that number is rising. Also, according to CMC the 24hr volume is all of $84.00 USD. At that volume and the current price any random investor looking to grab a nice stake in HODL can do so easily for $100 and relatively dramatically affect the price. It is a nice daily incremental climb which bodes much better for the stability of the price than a big swing upward, and it looks to be the first climb like that in a while, so I'm optimistic. But I'm not going to really pay much attention until it breaks into the $0.01 range again.
