If you own ICN tokens(dividends) then you receive dividends (ETH) to same address/wallet.
So, if you have ICN in Kraken, you'll receive ETH in your ETH address on Kraken?
Ofc not. Do you really think an exchange would give you the dividends for tokens THEY HOLD?
There was info in the beginning that Iconomi will cooperate with exchanges which will give dividends to users. Something changed in that matter?
nothing official from the team. All you hear is speculations or private opinions
There never was nor will there ever be "official from team" that's ridiculous.
That is entirely up to the Exchange... they hold the keys, and ICONOMI have no power to dictate terms.
Go ahead... leave your tokens in the exchange, any exchange during a dividend payout, and see what happens.
If an exchange hands out ICN dividends I will eat J-Lo's Panties.
No, I remember reading something fro the team that it has not been decided yet.
It is not that ridiculous. The exchange may hold the keys, but you are the owner of the asset..
What could the team possibly decide that would give them magical powers over exchanges?
no magic is needed. Just an agreement that dividends will be paid to users that hold those tokens during the dividends payout (block height)
Why are you so angry?
no anger mate.... Think about this.... what incentive do exchanges have from Iconomi to make such an agreement?
well, for start - being fair with their customers. Don't forget that behind every line of code or technical barrier (you don't hold the priv key for your tokens on an exchange) there are people.
And in case of ICN tokens - it is more like an asset than a token, and as such it doesn't matter who holds the private key, but who is the owner.
So for me it makes perfectly sense that the exchanges will pay those dividends to their owners. The exchange does not own the asset, so I really don't see any reason for them to receive the dividends.
As for Iconomi say - ICN tokens represent share of the company, and they should always seek what's best for the token holders - which is still the person and not the exchange entity
That's why I wrote what I wrote.
