Title: [ANN] Digitalcoin Foundation
Post by: Rawdawg- on April 30, 2014, 08:16:51 AM
Hey Everyone

Recently a few members of the Digitalcoin Community along with myself have decided to create the Digitalcoin Foundation. As a group we decided that we could get so much more done if the coin was represented not by one man, but by a group made up of its largest supporters. I currently (and for the foreseeable future) have taken the roll of "Chairman" for the foundation. This means I will be taking it upon myself to shoulder the burden of our community and get Digitalcoin to where we believe it deserves to be.

We have a fairly simple plan at this point.

To start, I have negotiated a deal with a ATM manufacturer to create ATMs that will take cash and dispense Digitalcoins (and Bitcoins) to the provided wallet of the customers choosing.

Second, I am currently in the process of creating a physical Point of Sale system that businesses can use to start accepting Digitalcoins for goods and services.

Third, we are making the process of getting Digitalcoins for fiat currency, and selling the coins for fiat currency, a little bit easier by negotiating with reputable exchanges that offer such services (so far we have been added to Vault of Satoshi, and Prelude.io, both thanks to the foundation).

Fourth, we are going to be running extensive educational marketting campaigns to help teach new users how to use a crypto currency. Basicly making it so even your grandmother could give you some DGC in a card on your birthday.

New things are added to the list every day, and I will keep you all updated as they happen.


Now I would like to take some time to stress the fact that CryptoAve is not linked to the Digitalcoin Community. Yes CryptoAve will offer services for Digitalcoin, but DGC is not the same thing as CryptoAve. CryptoAve is run by baritus and Digitalcoin is run by the foundation and by the community.

Like I noted in the paragraph above this one, Digitalcoin is run by the foundation and by the community. Baritus is the developer of the coin, meaning he does the nessecary programming and updates needed for the coin to work properly, but baritus is not in charge of where the community decides to take the coin and what the foundation decides to do with any donations that come in. All of those things are done by the foundation members and myself.

Some of you may know me from my talk I did on Digitalcoin at the Crypto Currency Convention, others may have no clue who I am. My name is Andrew Davidson, I personally back this currency and I am doing everything humanly possible to make dead certain that this coin succeeds over  others that are available.

The foundation also is in charge of dealing with any issues that may come up (allegations and accusations) and I would like to clear the air tonight. The foundation and the Digitalcoin community has zero issues with the well known BitcoinEXpress and hopes that someday we can all put any hard feelings behind us and move on to making Digitalcoin a not only safe, but desirable currency to own.

If anyone has any questions whatsoever please do not hesitate to get in touch with myself or any other members of the foundation.

Our site (it will be getting an aesthetic upgrade soon) can be found at www.dgcfoundation.com

I sincerely hope that this post will offer answers to any of your questions. Thank you guys and have a great night!

Rawdawg/Andrew

Thank you Rawdawg for the hard work you've put into making Digitalcoin thrive.

I'm interested in the DGC ATM details - when will they be available? Will they be able to dispense cash as well? Currently, the Bitcoin ATM in Montreal does not.

I have some digital coins and am digging for more. So by that I hope no one thinks I'm a trouble maker like, well you know. I do have a question, is there a list of who is on the foundation and the role they play. Be great if all listed their real names and the handles they use on here.

Personally i would like to contribuate. I propose to create the new design of the website and update this one regulary.

You can see my sketch proposition on this thread. I think , we need a professional, serious and sober website. For me, these are the three most important criteria.

For proof my invest in this coin  i'am also redesign the DGC layout presentation on bitcointalk.
You can see on this link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=209508.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=209508.0).

If you are ok, i can join the team.

The name of the coin is very good and you can be very useful for the promotion of all altcoins.
I will follow your development and try to be helpful with what I can.
Success!

The Digitalcoin community is in the process of selecting a new DGC Foundation leader.

If you have not visited the forum for a while, now is a good time to stop by and see everything that's going on, and while you're there cast your vote for DGC Foundation President.
