In theory, Bill Gates could buy all Bitcoins in existence.

I did miss the boat, that is clear.  But, what is also clear is that I'm not even close to the only one and it's probably because of the way the IPO went down.  For example, Ethereum is figuring out a way to keep their offering open for 60 days while giving everyone a chance to get in over the 60 day period. It won't be a cap where a few whales can come in and scoop up the whole lot.  The boat shouldn't be open for only a few days.  Yes, that's unfair.

Etheruem will be sold out in a couple of days. MaidSafe was sold out in less than 5 hours, regardless of the whales. The boat was open for those who wanted to hop on board, as the IPO was planned to last 30 days, but due to strong market demand hit the 750 BTC cap within 5 days. You can still send BTC to Maxmint's escrow address and wait in the line for those who may cash out.

Not even close to the same and I'm not sure how you can't see the difference.  He would have to purchase them in a fair market to get all the bit coins.  He would make everyone else rich in the process.

Or you can buy some of the few Crypti I list on Aug. 10th, not sure what the going price will be?

It's not fud. I'm not here to try and destroy the coin.

How do I move on?

That's a great approach.  I'm saying it sounds like a great project but the development team should've thought about the initial distribution plan more and give everyone an equal opportunity to buy in. Only a completely greedy person would have the attitude that it's FUD or have the "You missed the boat, live with it" mentality.  You should be able to see a problem with allowing people to invest 10 btc with a cap. There are many projects that have an initial distribution of 2k-3k people.  They could have started with a lower cap per investor.

I will stop, but don't think for a second that it won't be an issue once the coin launches and people see it have even the slightest amount of success.  Yes, other coins have launched with unfair IPOs, but they were shit clone coins with no innovation.  Crypti is trying to do something innovative, so an unfair distribution could be disastrous.  The market won't stand for another NXT.  

I'm out.

They could open up another 100 btc of the offering with a .25 btc cap per investor, or something similar.  Let's see how many more people want in.
