Yes you can buy BTCDs on Poloniex exchange and use for the swap and the elections. And the swap lasts 365 days from yesterday. But you must move your BTCD from the exchange to the ICO site if you want to participate in elections. Read my post above with all the numbers that shows how buying BTCD right now gets you something like 60% more KMD, per BTC, spent than the end of the ICO got you.

- ICO Site BTCD deposit enabled 8.1.2017- Subsidiy field gets locked for candidates 13.1 3PM UTC- BTCD Snapshot 15.1 (block xxxxxxxx)- Elections begin 15.1 3pm UTC- Elections finish 29.1 3pm UTC- KMD distribution 31.1 3pm UTCIf you have BTCD in a local wallet you can simply send it to the ICO site (i.e. deposit it). BTCD deposited before the snapshot will also receive the REVS asset.You can also hold the BTCD in your local wallet, in which case you can use your BTCD privatekey to later redeem the REVS asset. Keep in mind though, that if you are not staking BTCD you are losing money as the swap rate is decreasing a little bit everyday (5 % during 365 days).If you hold the BTCD in the ICO account then you don't have to worry about the privatekey. You will receive the REVS asset. In any case, the 12 word seed is very important, and without it you will lose your investment.If you hold the BTCD in a local wallet, then you will have to export the privatekey.Yes, you can buy BTCD and swap it for KMD, but you cannot keep it in an exchange. The exchange won't swap the BTCD for your. You must send/deposit the BTCD into our ICO site.You will be able to vote with the KMD you receive in the swap. The swap has basically already begun (internal balance) and will last 1 full year. Just deposit the BTCD to the ICO site and you everything will be taken care of. The only thing you must do is keep the 12-word passphrase/seed safe.Yes, but you must keep the 12-word seed safe and secure.A: importprivkey into BTCD wallet using the KMD wifthe iguana GUI will be able to convert the ICO passphrase you used into a KMD wif, which can then be imported into both komodod and BitcoinDarkdso as long as you have the passphrase, your funds are safeTo receive the REVS you must do either:A) send them to our ICO websiteB) store them in a local wallet and export the privatekey (You need the BTCD privatekey).We believe most BTCD will be swapped (1 full year to swap it). However there will be some BTCD that is lost, etc. and those will obviously not be swapped. The KMD we have left over after the 1 year period will be added to the working capital.Currently jl777 is the only BTCD dev, and he will be focusing on Komodo development in the future, so there are no devs left for BTCD. This is why we encourage everyone to swap.A lot of the recent developments are a bit unclear even to the SuperNET investors. Iguana and Komodo are made by SuperNET, and SuperNET is the organization developing them. SuperNET asset should be viewed as a share of the SuperNET organization. We have capital and investments; we have for-profit projects and a large platform & framework (known as Iguana and Komodo). SuperNET asset holders will be receiving dividends when we make a profit from the revenue, just like in any other business.We are working on a new supernet.org website that will become the hub of everything we are doing. The new website will explain what we do, and what our projects are.

Sorry if this was already answered, but if you have/had BTCD in an Exchange and/or staking pool wallet, are you eligible to receive the REVS asset? What will happen to any BTCD that does not get swapped, and are the BTCD devs abandoning that coin? Again, I know some of this was answered, but I'm still not 100% clear. Thanks!

BTCD price is rising quickly, on strong volume, now that the BTCD to KMD swap has officially begun..Remember that .006512 is equivalent to the ICO price, so still plenty more room to run up to near that level.(amount of BTCD that you get for 1 BTC)(amount of KMD you will get for 1 BTCD that you swap on ICO site)(amount of KMD you get for 1 BTC worth of BTCD at current price on Poloniex)(amount of KMD you got for 1 BTC at the end of ICO with no bonus)orextra (relative to ICO KMD/BTC rate at the end of ICO with no bonus)So at current prices, you get much more KMD that you would have gotten at the end of the ICO.The price could rise sharply from here toand you would still get the same amount of KMD. per BTC spent, as during the final phase of the ICO.The swap has begun for KMD, so once you buy the BTCD, move them to the Komodo IC: https://ico.komodoplatform.com/ or keep them in your own personal wallet: http://bitcoindark.com/Request that KMD be added to Poloniex here: https://poloniex.com/coinRequest

The Komodo team or SuperNET doesn't have any nodes running in the election. There are however 3 test notary nodes that will be ratified and part of the 64 nodes. Two of these nodes is run by jl777 and one by Kolo. There will be free spots for us to do this as SH & AR regions have less than 16 nodes.There are some individual people who are part of Komodo team and running in the election though. How much BTCD they have or how much BTC they invested during the ICO is their private business, and there's no way to know how much voting power they have. They have aquired their voting power with the same means as everyone else (by investing).There are some payments due to our team members (i.e. salary & bounties), and those will be paid in KMD after the KMD is distributed. In other words, none of the 10% supply reserved will be used in voting.
