Title: Way to organize BTC promotion Post by: mtgox on October 09, 2010, 04:37:31 PM There are a lot of threads out there collecting bounties and trying to raise BTC for various projects to promote bitcoins.
I just created a site that I think will make this process easier. It allows people to form groups. These groups have a fee to join which goes into the group treasury. The group members then vote to determine how to spend the group treasury. Basically it allows you to form a mini-democracy. It is still in alpha so a lot of things don't work correctly yet. But the basic functionality does. Anyway check it out and let me know what you think: http://FiveGrinder.com Title: Re: Way to organize BTC promotion Post by: kiba on October 09, 2010, 04:58:08 PM I used it to create the first ever mutual aid society for bitcoin, the Bitcoin Mutual Aid Association! http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1395.0
I think if you submit a name too long, it will redirect you to a "Group not found", but the group is created already. Title: Re: Way to organize BTC promotion Post by: mtgox on October 09, 2010, 05:15:25 PM Thanks I fixed. What do you want the name to be? you have 30 characters

I want to be able to hold 50% of bitcoins in the treasury from being spent at any time.

I have a feeling that the democratic system of your website will leave most of the organizations' treasury empty.

Also, how do you get funds distributed? I was forced to donate 17.5 BTC of my own money to the CCC because the proposal somehow failed to have an effect on the treasury. |
