Ok, thanks. When does the ICO ends?

Where is the Lisk price speculation thread?

"At Lisk you can't develop smart contracts which are always being performed by all miners on the network."

Lisk is a platform for decentralized apps instead, written in javascript

This true statement does not mean "smart contracts" are impossible in Lisk.  It depends on your definition of smart contracts.  

Can Lisk run a dapp on a sidechain that takes coin from two or more people, scans the web repeatedly via APIs or screen scraping, and then pushes all coins previously collected back to only one person's Lisk account based on some future trigger that is found?  

Yes.  And I would argue this fits the definition of a "smart contract".

As I have said repeatedly, the first person to write a sports betting dapp in Lisk using code like this will be a billionaire.

better watch this space

Where do the Lisk devs get the BTC to set up a buy wall?   How do they know know who sold the Crypti at the buy wall?  How do they issue Lisk to this person?   How do they know you will take the BTC and buy Lisk with it?

No way to check this, but those who want to get into ICO would get opportunity to do so. In the end, those BTC would go back to them anyway ...

EDIT. besides, we can sent PM with the exact amount we want to sell say 10 minutes before doing so.

Lisk holders will vote 101 people into the position of Active Delegates who will run Lisk nodes that add blocks to the Lisk blockchain every 10 seconds.  This system is called Distributed Proof of Stake (DPoS).  Any particular individual will add one block every 17 minutes and will receive 5 Lisk  every 17 minutes during year one for performing this task.   This system goes in a round-robin clockwork fashion with everybody knowing their turn will come only once per 17 minute cycle and will not be contested by the others.   Such cooperation means only one hash needs to be generated per block time.  

Contrast this with the competitive system used by Bitcoin and Ethereum, which has tens of thousands of miners simultaneously generating literally trillions of hashes that are ALL mathematically valid to add the next block to their blockchain.  These valid hashes are discarded until one randomly comes up with an agreed-upon number of leading zeros in it, which act as a "winning lottery ticket" to pick which miner makes the block and gets the reward.

Both Ethereum and Bitcoin engage in PROPAGANDA that all these trillions of hashes are "necessary to secure the blockchain".  That's bullshit.  Any single hash generated by any single miner could do that.  Instead, their trillions of hashes are a way to pick a winner in a get-rich-quick scheme and nothing more.

This difference is the main reason Lisk will be around long after Bitcoin and Ethereum have drowned in their own ever-growing hash pool.

That idea could work, IF Bter agreed to play ball. Such as if they agreed to some sort of 'token' than could be converted to Lisk, and so on. But it's most likely too late in the ICO game to arrange this really, and without a guarantee that the XCR seller was actually buying Lisk with the BTC received, not sure how that would work.

Keep in mind the Lisk devs don't have access to the BTC funds right now, so it'd have to come out of their own pocket to buy up the XCR on Bter. I'm sure there would be honest people wanting to get out, but I'd also expect some dishonest people too.

I'm  too lazy to post all that on every page...
