Good morning, North America! I'm very pleased to report that as of 7:40 AM West Coast time, we've had exactly 400 claims of Genesis, which means that the total number of Pocket tokens in circulation is 400,000,400. I'm not aware of any actual exchanges yet, so we have no estimate of market cap. However, I'd like to point out this offer to buy POCKET by @chefcryptoshark; he has offered to pay 1 STEEM for 150,000 POCKET. If someone took his trade, that would imply a market cap of nearly $4000, about the same as this coin Enigma.
EDIT: I might as well let the community know about this bid of 1 SBD for 10,000. That would imply a market cap of over $40,000. Please take great care in buying and selling tokens. Make sure you trust the person that you're dealing with, or find someone you both trust to act as an escrow partner. Much as I would like to, I can't currently act as an escrow partner - so please don't ask.
EDIT: Another set of bids is here, starting at 1 SBD for 2,000 Pocket.
For those who haven't heard, POCKET is a subtoken system in Steem that just started yesterday. Many Steem accounts are eligible to claim their stake of tokens by resteeming this post. For full instructions, read up on the links I've posted below, and happy Steeming!
Yes, my offer stands to purchase up to 50,000 Pocket tokens for 5 SBD. An initial market cap of $40,000 sounds a lot more reasonable for the first Steem Subtoken than a measly $4,000.
We're up to 423 genesis claims; so it would be about $42,300.
That's so fun! It's like you created a baby and now it's opening it's eyes and looking around, trying to figure out how to move and someday crawl. :)
let get this thing going. i hope we as early adapters will all have a good future for it..
Not sure where the coins are held.. I apperabtly got some in your message..
"where" is a slippery concept here. I suppose you could say they're held in your Steem account; more specifically, in your Posting Key.
At the moment, there's nowhere you can look them up, but you do have them and you can send them to people. I'll "send" you 1 to show you.
pocketsend:1@secter, now a bot will reply and tell you how many we both have.

@biophil thanks for the mention! I have posted a new offer:
Send me your pocket tokens in a comment like this:
pocketsend:50000@chefcryptoshark, 50k pocket for 1 Steem!
I will honor this until I feel like I have "pocketed" enough, or at least to trade for a hot pocket.
Also, I will also pay 1 Steem for 150k Pocket, but that is not as sweet a deal.
Hope that the price lead to big profit and success of the tocken. Can we buy more? thanks for this update, updated.
In addition to my comment, feel free to join the conversation in my new post about future of steem...it will motivate you more about steem . More success to you.
If you want to buy more, you'll have to find someone willing to sell you some. I'm holding on to mine for now.
Where can I store it? will it be sent to my wallet? no more info since yesterday. Thanks a lot
It's connected to your steem account. Using your steem account, you can send it to other steem accounts. The announcement has all the information that there is. If you got the confirmation message about your genesis claim, you're good.
Another way you can check your balance is to send yourself 1 token, like I will demonstrate.
Thanks a lot
pocketsend:1@biophil, I am checking my own balance by paying a 1-token fee. A bot will reply to this message saying what my balance is.
I mistakenly sent via the adress you gave me above...meaning that I sent my coin to you , can you please send it back to @Charles1 ..thanks

I am behind your news. I did not know what you were talking about when you mentioned POCKET. So Pocket is a token from Steem? And how do I trade both of them?
It's brand new, so for right now there nowhere to trade it.
I have sold 11/22 lots at a rate of 400 POCKET for 0.1 SDB.
Eleven more offers still available!
Nice!
Joined steemit not long ago glad to find this information here, gonna resteem. Thank you for the info! @biophil Gonna read the infos about this POCKET.
NICE POST
Do you have statistics about the transactions in the first day? Also, it will be interesting to find out which users already started to stack pockets
I don't have statistics handy, but I have noticed a couple accounts with more than the Genesis stake.
pocketsend:50000@chefcryptoshark, 50k pocket
@hammoda - I just sent over Steem for this. Thanks for being patient!

Hi, just so you know, @chefcryptoshark won't get a notification that you just paid him - so make sure you go chase him down and let him know you did. In the future, it probably makes the most sense to put the
pocketsendcommand in a reply to the person you're paying.Lol and he is offering 1 steem for 5000 rn
But i sent 50000 :/
So what he will give me ??!!!!! Lol its confusing
I have several different offers in different places. Some are 150k pocket for 1 steem/sbd, while the post on my blog were significantly better offers. There is still one lot available.
Don't worry, your willingness to participate and build the community will be rewarded!
Yup i still new to this pocket thing
I will try to learn before i spend it randomly
No worries, pocket was only born yesterday. Everybody is new to it!
I find it very intersting :)

This is fascinating to watch, will be interesting to see the value of both STEEM and POCKET in 12 months time!
Good post :)
Hey @biophil, I have one other steem ac lying around can I use that to claim tokens as well?
There's nothing preventing you, and you wouldn't be the first to do it. If you had 1000 other accounts lying around, I'd ask you please not to. :)
Am interested in this, how do I make bid so that I can buy Pocket
claimed my tokens today :) i am in awe of all things crypto you are all some clever people who work these things out :)
I wonder what is going to happen in POCKET's future. And what actual uses does POCKET has. I think it will be a great and easy tool tip authors.
