As @cryptog suggested, shareholders need some picture of the share distribution per shareholder to answer that question.
Could you give us some statistics?

@tomjoad, are there any specific plans laid out for how we’re going to spread word of this auction? As has been said, we’ll most likely need to attract more people to place bids that just Nu/Peercoin supporters. Will it just be a matter of posting on /r/cryptocurrency and bitcointalk (maybe other communities?) or is there anything else planned to help spread the word?

The most important thing we can do is to keep the bitcointalk thread bumped for Jordan. We’ve seen in the past with Mercury that if the announcement can stay near the top of the Project Development sub-forum, it will slowly build awareness in broader communities. As long as we keep the thread active and interesting, I’m confident that places like /r/Bitcoin will begin to take note.

I would recommend against linking it to any other community forums unless you think there’s a specific reason to do so. Although the final project (B&C Exchange) will be relevant to many communities, at this point it is likely to be perceived primarily as an auction for NuShares. You’ve seen first-hand how Neucoin was received when they attempted selling themselves on community forums.

Edit for clarification: Jordan has some good thoughts on it. Reaching out beyond our community. I think there is “good outreach”, which is discussion of Nu activities on generalist platforms like Bitcointalk, and “ineffective outreach”, which is trying the Neucoin selling approach in concentrated communities like Peercointalk. That’s just my opinion however.

Keeping the thread bumped will require a little bit of spamming which isn’t good here. Maybe we can organize the BCT thread with a Q&A right below Jordan’s introduction. Otherwise, you also have to read through all the unimportant stuff. Keeping it on the top BCT’s list makes sense though.

This took just 6519 blocks to get 5001 votes. That is 76.7% in favor. The last 1000 blocks prior to passage (not skewed by people voting no because they hadn’t configured their yes vote yet) was 81.7%, which I would consider the true degree of consensus.

This motion has overwhelming support.

It looks like the auction is now live on Bitcointalk: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1033773.0

Posted on /r/peercoin…

@tomjoad, are you going to be announcing it on /r/cryptocurrency? That’s a general crypto forum like Bitcointalk.

Whoever controls the BCExchange account probably should, yes.
