Title: Brainstorming how to start a transparent business. Post by: cbeast on April 28, 2014, 09:00:18 PM Let's say I want to start a completely transparent business and want to make the financials available online. As an example, let's say I want to start a recording label. I would contract studios, producers, publicists, engineers, session artists, etc. and pay them all with Bitcoin. Each contractor and their sub-contractors would need to be traceable through some sort of spreadsheet. It would be nice if there was a Bitcoin enabled spreadsheet capable of creating raw transactions. Perhaps this can be done manually. The spreadsheet would need to create a tree that follows the payments and credits each and every person with their unique IDs.
Can something like this be done with Excel? Title: Re: Brainstorming how to start a transparent business. Post by: franky1 on April 28, 2014, 09:53:19 PM excel.. only on the LIVE drive.. or Google docs.. its not really transparent if its on a offline system.
it can be done in PHP aswell imagine you make it public that every song sold for 70c on itunes was split in a certain way EG 50% goes to the singer - singers address blockchain.info/address/1singersaddressblahblahblah 10% goes to singers manager - managers address blockchain.info/address/1managersaddressblahblahblah 10% goes to recording studio - studio address blockchain.info/address/1studiosaddressblahblahblah 30% goes to itunes - itunes address blockchain.info/address/1itunesaddressblahblahblah with itunes they would use unique addresses per TX for each sale but would merge funds later (sweeping addresses) so then the itunes has an address where all purchases are swept into, EG 1JustinBeiberAddressblahblahblah so this shows that JB's album total purchases. so you see many 70c (0.00156btc) inputs. then as totals get to 100BTC you see a TX output that shows 50btc 1singersaddressblahblahblah 10btc 1managersaddressblahblahblah 10btc 1studiosaddressblahblahblah 30btc 1itunesaddressblahblahblah as i said at the start this can be displayed and controlled easily using PHP Title: Re: Brainstorming how to start a transparent business.

PHP/MySQL is your answer IMO. But the tree thing in your requirement is very dangerous with big data. To properly maintain a tree with big data u need to move towards NoSQL as DB choice ...again my opinion. Views differ in terms of architecture.

Spreadsheet isn't the right tool. Instead use a database.
