Nothing stopped you from buying your HEAT share with FIMK.

I posted the pricing levels several times in this thread and FIMK was quite often the obvious best buying choice.  Just because you were not smart enough to make good trades doesn’t mean the developers should change the rules to match your opinions.

As for original FIMK investors, many were invested because of the team behind it, not the “coin” — it would have been a far bigger mistake to abandon FIMK supporters (Who, quite frankly, seem to have paid for one man year of HEAT development).

All in all, I think the developers found a good compromise.

(And, despite your claims I believe FIMK is far from a dead coin.  It’s taking a nap, and grossly undervalued.)

Actually, knowing that the devs would accomplish nothing with my now worthless FIMK stopped me from buying with FIMK. It's not about not being smart enough, it's about funding a project you believe in and hoping it pays off.
I did the same with Lisk, it would've been cheaper to buy XCR first and buy Lisk that way, but I didn't do that because that does not help the development fund at all.
You pretty much made my point with the rest of your comment. It was way cheaper to buy with FIMK than BTC/ETH/NXT indeed. So why reward them again with extra HEAT even though the HEAT put aside for FIMK holders were completely sold out?

I'm sorry for hammering on this and I appreciate your comments, but nobody was able to give me a decent answer and I suggest you leave that to the developers. Only they can explain how they came up with it and how they are going to handle things.

It was a great move to give FIMK holders a buyout.  Just like Lisk gave Crypti holders a buyout.

Imagine if years from now the heat devs switch to a new project with a new ico.  And they are building the new project on the heat tech, which you paid for with your heat investment and also the opportunity cost of holding heat for years and trusting the devs to deliver.

You would surely be demanding that heat investors receive a buyout from the new project ico in that situation.

I bought with BTC, I knew how the funding was gonna be, they said that the FIMK will "most probably" not be sold but burned.

Fucking assholes trying to get some advantages after the ICO

Just shut up trollkids.

FIMK was the shit coin, devs got rich, bought villa in Helsink, never liseted on big exchanges, i am sure this heat is also shit scam.

did you have to make new account just to make this post?

anyway that sounds fair

Great! Which services are you talking about and with who is the JV with?

This! ...And official slack.

I wish jl777 and Sasha from waves took this option of letting 'old' investors exchange for a stake in 'new' ventures. I'm not saying those guys are scammers, but both have created new projects that haven't really honored commitments to previous investors

jl777: from NXTventure > InstantDEX >  BTCD > SuperNET  > crypto777 .... if you invested in NXTventure back in early 2014 and none of the later assets your share in jl777's enterprises has been diluted into oblivion, same for InstantDEX, but less so. SuperNET & BTCD bagholders have bled the NXTventure & InstantDEX stakeholders share in 'jl777 inc' down by at least 75%.

Sasha from WAVES is basically doing the same thing, diluting previous investors in his many NXT assets share of his WAVES 'empire' down to peanuts. There was a swap, but it wasn't made clear during the WAVES ICO that the coinomat operations were being sold or abandoned, and not included in WAVES platform. Obviously insiders like jl777 were told (he exchanged all his coinomat bases assets for WAVES), but afaik regular guys didn't hear of these plans until after the WAVES ico finished

I like that FIMK bagholders were offered a parachute in full view.
