UPDATE: Effective Immediately the BitShares DEX Sign Up Incentive has been suspended and may be ended permanently. Due to extenuating circumstances the Incentive has not performed as planned and to prevent further abuse will be halted. Any current sign-ups will receive their 1,000 STRANGE and after that point no further Incentive Tokens will be distributed.
The time has come to unveil further details for the STRANGE Token Distribution Plan!

First the Details of the STRANGE Token:
MAXIMUM SUPPLY: 10,000,000 STRANGE
The Distribution Plan:
| Designation | Percent | Token Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| BitShares DEX Sign Up Incentive - Sudpended | 20% | 2,000,000 |
| Token Design Contest Prize: | 0.5% | 50,000 |
| Distribution to Current BitShares DEX Users: | 70% | 7,000,000 |
| Reserve (to be burned if not needed): | 9.5% | 950,000 |
Explanation of categories:
The BitShares DEX Sign Up Incentive* -- SUSPENDED.
In fact, I have had 1 new sign up already, noconnor8, who I have sent the 1st sign-up bonus!
Token Design Contest Prize will have a REWARD of 0.5% of the total equalling 50,000 STRANGE Tokens.
More details of the Token Design Contest to follow soon!
Distribution to Current BitShares DEX Users of 70% which will be a total 7,000,000 STRANGE Tokens. According to http://cryptofresh.com/a/BTS there are at the time of this writing 38,146 Holders & Traders of BTS.
Using this number, I get 7,000,000 tokens ÷ 38,146 users = 183.51991 which will be rounded to 185 tokens each.
From what I have found on http://cryptofresh.com/, I have been able to identify only 5,186 users for which to send the initial distribution.
Once I begin the distribution 5,186 users x 185 tokens = 959,410 total tokens distributed.
The remaining tokens will be preserved between now and December 31st, 2017† for users who did not receive the initial distribution to contact me and I will be able to send them their portion. If the users who do not receive the initial distribution do not contact me by the deadline of December 31st, 2017†, then the remaining portion of 6,040,590 STRANGE tokens will be burned, reducing the total supply.
Reserve (to be burned if not needed) of 9.5% of total, which is 950,000 tokens will be held to be used if necessary for other promotional endeavors, including but not limited to: additional sign-up incentives, additional STRANGE token contest, other advertising efforts, etc.
If they are not used by the deadline of December 31st, 2017†, then the remaining portion of STRANGE tokens will be burned, reducing the total supply.
The distribution will begin after the posting of this blog today and will go until I am able to finish the list of 5,186 users, at which time another post will be made.
Thanks, and as always:
Stay tuned.
Stay interesting.
Stay Strange.
