Title: Someone should invent a coin that works like Pokemon GO
Post by: Tacalt on August 05, 2016, 05:05:46 PM
This would be a regular coin that works like any others accept you can physically leave small denominations of this coin, laying around for other people to find using an Ap on your phone. This feature would be fun and can be used to promote parties and Altcoin meet ups.

Make it happen world! I'm just the idea man!

Please see all the Pokémon coins already being discussed.

I heard News stories lately.

A football player almost got shot after wandering into an armed robber chase.

Parents have abandoned their kids.. all around retard mayhem !

It's a game for retard imbeciles.. so yeah a "coin" would be perfect (since crypto is retarded brats)
I say start the ICO now and make it later..

we had shakezula's geocoin, and then another i think, but I fear without the free advertising platform (TV) of these big corps, the idea wouldn't get far, now you're competing with likes of Google(Niatic)/Nintendo etc.. shady.

I do wish we have a chain containing torrents infos, updated trackers etc in the chain, why haven't we? This must be doable no?

That's actually a good idea. But some problems have to be fixed first. There are some ways (using jailbreak for instance) to cheat playing Pokemon Go. For example, you could lead the software to believe in a particular position by manipulating the GPS-data on your phone using a special app.

Craazy, I didn't know that, but i figured you could probably cheat by now, in any case I don't know how it would work but if a dev team out there could make a functioning Easter egg hunt out of a coin, I maintain it would be very sucessful indeed.

I don't think it has to have anythign to do with Pokemon Go necessarily just the concept of using a GPS ap on your phone to find hidden coins.Maybe the running aps could be the thing that contributes to people mining the coin or something. Is that nonsense what I just said? I have no idea, again I'm just an ideaman

When you say leave a physical coin, do you mean like an actual physical coin or a digital coin left in a physical location? because if the ap was to find physical things it would be more difficult to hack but much more expensive  :P

Nono I meant a physical location and digital coin although and actual physical Easter egg hunt that functioned with bitcoin would be super cool too, any Idea on how to make that happen?


Title: Re: Someone should invent a coin that works like Pokemon GO
Post by: Bemerand on August 11, 2016, 12:26:10 AM
There are physical bitcoins but if the Ap worked this way some one would also have to go around leaving very expensive physical bitcoins in places, the logistics of which would be hilarious. Also can you imagine what would happen if someone left a bunch of money in a physical bitcoin buried in a public place and sent the masses looking for it lol

I believe there is a law against this in most states in the US, it refers to the mass panic caused when money is dumped loosely off buildings and causes hysteria. you wouldn't be allowed to have people treasure hunting actual currency.

you play for a prize lottery

you pay a fee to an address. this unlocks the starting location, which once you find the coin it unlocks to a second location until one winner

Is that nonsense what I just said? I have no idea, again I'm just an ideaman

That is the key behind every coin concept actually.. SECURITY !

They are right i seen an explosion of Pokeman GO exploits making the rounds.
Further more you could even Spoof the towers like i just found out Canadian Police have been doing since 2007 with a program they made for spying that tricks all cell phones within range to connect to your fake cell phone tower.
AKA: They made an emulator.
Old news in the cracking scene LOL
Hackers knows this well and are ready to implement one for a coin if it will pay them a small fortune in coins to dump on Poloniex.
So you BETTER be able to code !

I have had some ideas before related to P2P and crypto coins and have been doing torrents since they were invented and i spent a lot of effort a decade ago making a file sharing client mod.
But.. i never thought about directly doing an index on the chain.

This might be literally the one alternative block-chain use i could get behind.
But if they ICO it then forget it.. ICO = SCAM

I made a bunch of topics here long ago that delved into these issues and the one that stopped me from writing code was..
Are the users going to support a system intended for "Pirates" (File Sharing)
Right off the bat your going to be on the bad side of many large anti-piracy organizations for example.
And will the public look down on this sort of thing and shun it ?

Don't forget Github has a large track record of taking things down for any half ass piracy complaint..
and they also WILL send your info to the US authorities for investigation in a heart beat.
..as they already have done this lots.

I know this is off-topic so...
To me a "Torrent Index" Coin would be far more interesting than a rip-off of a lame Niantic game.
Which was already a rip-off off one of their other games with a Pokeman angle / twist tacked on.

Although i think the Torrent Index idea may be far more doable and far easier to keep secured than any of *MY* P2P related ideas.

And like i said, i am in no way trying to take credit for that idea either.

My idea(s) were far off in left field or more complicated.
The more code you have to write from scratch the more worried you should be.
This stuff has to be thought out well if it's going to be a coin on an exchange for profit LOL

Besides.. before you know it the PokeZombie's will disappear.
Trends don't last forever.

Cloning pokemon go may require lots of development skill and also appstore may banned those cloned apps.
The bitpokemango or like that is being traded in yobit however it is complete failure only name of pokeman go is given to coin without any similarity like real pokeman go game.

First of all Pokemon Go is LIFE not a trend! (Just kidding)

but in all seriousness while the Pokemon Go Ap may be a trend, the idea of treasure hunting certainly is not a trend. I liek that the author of this topic chose the words "Easter Egg Hunt" hunt in one of his posts. (how very Call of Duty of you) but it is a very accurately comparable thing to call the Pokemon Go Ap. An Easter Egg Hunt for real $$ would surely bring in a fortune. I don't know how you could accomplish this or if its even legal, but I agree that the idea is genius. Good Job Idea man!

So what, that doesn't make it the games fault. Many things with innocent intentions are misused and cause trouble, we don't blame crowbars for breakins or blame terrorism on money.

Its a simple and fun kids game.

you know people actually ruin their lives playing world of warcraft, no really, I'm 100% serious, ask child services how many kids in the US get removed from their homes because their parents develop video game addiction to world of warcraft and literally stop doing all else.

Hmf? Human mining ? What is that? Is it mining thru you walking or going to other places? Like Pokemon go that you need to walk somewhere to find Pokemon. I wonder why is that project did not click on the market right. Maybe its not a good thing because you have to bring your internet connection with you and in our country the signal in the internet is not good everywhere. There are some places that don't have signals. So, it is recommended that you just stay in your position in surfing the net.

Huntercoin is a namecoin fork and as such has adapted the blockchain to store the game state.

The coin is merge mined with btc and ltc, though note that some of the coins are reserved for the players.

The human mining part.

In a nutshell, the map spawns coins, players go collect them, when the coins are brought back to the spawn spot, your wallet gets credited.

Game rounds are 1 move per block which makes game play slow

So a coin that is human mined would work something like this.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/motocoin-dev/motocoin-site/gh-pages/images/coin.pnghttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/motocoin-dev/motocoin-site/gh-pages/images/motologo.png


Motocoin is a cryptocurrency utilizing an innovative proof-of-play scheme where coins can only be mined by cognitive workload - playing a 2D motorbike simulation game, which is different from Bitcoin and other crypto-currencies that use a proof-of-work scheme where miners must perform difficult computations and then use proof of that work to secure coin transactions and get their reward. Motocoin has been dominated by bots but now a fast, publicly available bot has been released, giving everyone a fair chance at mining.

PokemonGo is the stupedist thing alive. People are like dying trying to find imaginary pokemon. you have to call the coin something cooler like - Uncharted Drakes Fortune Coin - or - Indiana Jones Coins
the concept is pretty cool tho, you can hire ppl on here to make a coin liek that for you

I just briefly looked at geocoin. It looks like their app is really nice. The concept is interesting but are the coins that are on the map just essentially put in places by other users? Ie: the only way for a coin to appear is for a user to place it there.

This coin would be awesome if it worked similar to huntercoin and people were encouraged to go hunt out the new supply instead of hoping some person leaves a coin nearby. I checked and the nearest coin (low value btw) is about 7 hours away. I'd probably go collect some if they were near me, or if the coins were of a high value. According to their website it looks like there is a high value coin near london. Lol


I def think geocoin crossed with huntercoin would be a winner.

Geocoin for their geocashing tech and huntercoin for the human mining aspect

Geocoin for their geocashing tech and huntercoin for the human mining aspect

Interesting thought to mix geocoin with huntercoin.  I like how active the developer is with GeoCoin and the physical geocoins he has made are cool too.  I definitely keep grabbing GEO bit by bit just in case it becomes a leader in geocashing.

Yes I wasn't aware of this at the start. It seems Niantic has put it little to no effort for an anti-cheat system which is understandable since it only delays the inevitable. I suspect after trading is possible, there will eventually be a pokemon black market in fiat/bitcoin.

PokemonGo is the stupedist thing alive. People are like dying trying to find imaginary pokemon. you have to call the coin something cooler like - Uncharted Drakes Fortune Coin - or - Indiana Jones Coins
the concept is pretty cool tho, you can hire ppl on here to make a coin liek that for you
yeah, i dont like that too to be honest, though the plan would be perfect for a cryptocurrency as a lot of people would like that for sure

Maybe it can be happen in the future if the team who made pokemon go can accept the profosal to add crypto for accepting payment.. not for collecting crypto in the game..

I agree treasure hunting for crypto would be a lot more fun and less stupid

I don't too agree if there are coins that like pokemon Go, the users must hunt coin and around the place, it is dangerous because there were many people who be accident because of hunting monsters pokemon. And if It happen on cryptos coins, bitcoin and another cryptos coins will get negative image.

anyways im sure if there isnt one yet, the second people went crazy over it a law would be passed that would not allow people to hide denominations of any currency around for people to treasure hunt

So whats the latest news on this front? is Geocoin the same thing as this idea? Has anybody tried it?

I just briefly looked at geocoin. It looks like their app is really nice. The concept is interesting but are the coins that are on the map just essentially put in places by other users? Ie: the only way for a coin to appear is for a user to place it there.

This coin would be awesome if it worked similar to huntercoin and people were encouraged to go hunt out the new supply instead of hoping some person leaves a coin nearby. I checked and the nearest coin (low value btw) is about 7 hours away. I'd probably go collect some if they were near me, or if the coins were of a high value. According to their website it looks like there is a high value coin near london. Lol

this is the answer to the guy who posted right before my post, these are the two coins that have the technology to make coin such as the one being spoken of in this thread.

The EXPANSE LIFE concept seems interesting if you haven't seen it already:

As with all these geolocation apps, it's how to prevent geo-cheating.

Will look into the other suggestions in this thread, Geocoin et al, as they sound intriguing and may help me get out the house a bit more :D

But how close are we to making this a reality?
Do you have any coin dev experience?

Geolocation paired with a coin is a really cool idea.
Anything that gets people outdoors and exploring is great. I've done some geocache hunts and its really fun, actually.

It could be the next big thing in crypto. Just where are the devs to do it?

Please tell me some explanation about the portfolio of your ideas. I mean some example like your say. I don't think if that will work for perfectly.
Are we need to make PokeCoin?
