PNK minting and 2nd token sale - postponing by approximately a month to do a proper marketing (outreach) campaign

Proposal
1

Main thread: PNK minting and 2nd token sale - #7 by kleros

Was:

  • The sale will open on the 11th of January 2020 16:00 UTC and run for an initial period of one month.

Suggested:

  • The sale will open on the 15th of February 2020 16:00 UTC and run for an initial period of one month.
  • Existing token holders to have additional 24 hours prior to the start of the main sale

Not sure why 16:00 - seem like an arbitrary hour - I would suggest 00:00 or 24:00 or 12:00 or 18:00 because it works well with PST and other timezones. But it’s OK, 16:00 is OK too: Every Time Zone: time zone converter, compare time zone difference and find best time for a meeting with one click

Rationale

  1. Other proposals are yy to be voted.
  2. More fair for the crypto people on the internet.
  3. We have 10th December and still no official announcement.

1 month which is not Xmas and New Year I would say it’s OK. Because it’s Xmas and New Year I suggest to postpone.

Or maybe the postponement is not good - maybe there are some circumstances that scream “now now now”?

Main point remains - currently it is just the post of the forum and vote on Aragon, some conversations on Telegram but no announcement, therefore no promo, no marketing campaign.

And then again - maybe no marketing is good, we want only hardcore crypto nerds?

I still believe decent marketing strategy (outreach) can go a long way and improve our economy, just like the bounty with listing on exchanges: Bounty for getting PNK listed on exchanges

I’m not in favor of delaying, just because I feel like there is no need to do so right now. If the team ever indicates that they would need more time I’m open to vote on a possible delay then.

A lot of voices AGAINST delay.

OK. No worries.

I just wanted ensure enough time for promo and marketing, that’s assuming bounty / affiliate / distribution curve is in place.
