Lesson 1:  what is my balance with MediterraneanCoin tipbot?

first, follow the MEDTipBot user (visit https://twitter.com/MEDTipBot and click on "Follow)

then post the following status with your Twitter account:

#MediterraneanCoin showbalance

EDIT: for privacy reason, the balance is sent to you by direct Twitter message.
To be able to receive the message, you need to follow user @MEDTipBot

Lesson 2: I want to withdraw my MED from the tipbot, what do?

first, specify what is your MediterraneanCoin for withdraw, so post a status update on Twitter like this (change the MED address withyour own, of course ;):

#MediterraneanCoin mymedaddress  Mk17G7iHX2FfHQGoW4PEHKhHjSh55WmuMa
   

second, withdraw your coins to your wallet:

#MediterraneanCoin withdraw 10 MED

Lesson 3: how do I find out my deposit address?

Just post a Twitter update containing:

#MediterraneanCoin getdepositaddress

Lesson 4: how to send a tip to a user

say you want to send a tip to a Twitter user whose screen name is "@smallplatf";

then, post the following status with your Twitter account:

#MediterraneanCoin sendtip @smallplatf  10 MED


You can send a tip to multiple users at the same time!


#MediterraneanCoin sendtip @user1 @user2 @user3  10 MED

This means: send a tip of 10 MED to each of the three users (for a total of 3*10 = 30 MED)

Lesson 5: send a conditional tip to a user

What is a conditional tip?
It is a tip which will we performed when the tip gets enough "tip votes" before the expiration date.


#MediterraneanCoin  sendtipconditional @smallplatf 30 MED , expiration date 2014-06-15, need 5 votes

In this example, we create a conditional tip which needs to get at least 5 votes (hint: see the "tipvote" command) before the expiration date (2014-06-15, UTC time).

Some additional notes:
the expiration date is mandatory. The expiration date is in UTC format, you can specify also the time and the time zone. i.e. you can specifily precisely when the tip expires!

Some examples:

2014-06-12
2014-06-12T13:54:51+00:00
2014-06-12T13:54:51Z

good app!

thanks, but MED ANN thread need u post something.  :D

A good note, hope to have more application. ???

nice to see something happening. Would love bfgminer with multi thread support though.

Lesson 6: how to vote for a conditional tip?

If a user has received a conditional tip, this means that another user has put some MEDs as a tip, but this MED will be available to the receiving user only if the tip gets enough "tipvotes" (before the expiration date).

i.e. the receiving user can "go social" in order to ask other users to vote for his pending tip!


#MediterraneanCoin tipvote @smallplatf

Lesson 7: assurance contracts

This idea was inspired by this: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Contracts#Example_3:_Assurance_contract (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Contracts#Example_3:_Assurance_contract)

An assurance contract is a way of funding the creation of a public good, that is, a good that, once created, anyone can benefit from for free. The standard example is a lighthouse: whilst everyone may agree that one should be built, it’s too expensive for an individual sailor to justify building one, given that it will also benefit all his competitors.

One solution is for everyone to pledge money towards the creation of the public good, such that the pledges are only committed if the total value of all pledges is above the cost of creation. If not enough people contribute, nobody has to pay anything.

So, using the tipbot system, it is possible to promote  an assurance contract in favor of a user:

#MediterraneanCoin assurancecontract @smallplatf 1000 MED 2014-06-30

This means that, in favor of user smallplatf, it is started an assurance contract funding, which will last until the expiration date (2014-06-30).

Users all over the internets can contribute to this funding using the "assurancetip" command. If the target amount is reached before the expiration date, than the target user will receive the amount. Otherwise, if by the expiration date the target amount for funding is not reached, the target user will receive nothing and the contributed amounts (using "assurancetip") will be given back to all contributing users.

very nice!!! good job  :)

Wow! It is an exciting app!

hi, smallplatf, could you please develop TipBot System and Send SMS for weibo.com (新浪微博)?

You know there are more and more Chinese guys focus MED, but they can not visit Twitter bicoz the Great Fire Wall. If you dev it, then our MED official Weibo (http://weibo.com/medchina) could be cooler than other coins including Bitcoin and Dogecoin!

 ;D

We know MED dev is the great!

yes, Weibo is really good and the best in China!!!
Can you provide links to API? Possibily in english  ;) so that we can develop it faster!

Lesson 8: contributing to assurance contracts

If you want to contribute to the achievement of the objective stated by the assurance contract, everyone can contribute with an amount with the command 'assurancetip', which takes as arguments the user who will receive the contribute and the amount of MED, for example:

#MediterraneanCoin assurancetip @smallplatf 200 MED

In this way, you are contributing 200 MED to the assurance contract previously established. In case you are the first contributor, 800 MED are still necessary to reach the target, before the expiration date.

If we get to the expiration date without reaching the target of 1000 MED (see below), then each contributed amount is given back to the tipping users.

What are you doing? What are you working on? are you still pursuing MED? Look at Reddcoin they have an inferior tipbot but an active dev and they are taking off now. Created around the same time as med also.

When we will see instruction for weibo ?


i send from twitter 50 MED to jjkosby@weibo   ....... and weibo showbalance say 1 MED  ???

how work ?

also what happens if person who receive tip (i send tip to him) don't have active tipbot address - on twitter-twitter, weibo-weibo, twitter-weibo ?

weibo->twitter work or not ?

there was a bug fixed two day ago, the 50 MED have been sent to your retrieval address (MgWra1jsKTjuwYmsteKwjyhyaYK9wrKLaT) instead of your Weibo address, so you have lost nothing. see also the transaction:
http://explorer.mediterraneancoin.org/tx/bb0a3b5c205f7dfac80c5e71dfd8565fbec972e97ec9b789145e012669d7498a


Now the twitter->weibo works correctly!

twitter-twitter and weibo-weibo:
if the user does have a tipbot address (or has not yet used the tipbot), the amount is reserved for him until he uses it!

Added support for GET requests, for example:

http://lookup.mediterraneancoin.org:9000/medaddresslookup?platform=twitter&screenname=smallplatf&coin=med (http://lookup.mediterraneancoin.org:9000/medaddresslookup?platform=twitter&screenname=smallplatf&coin=med)

awesome  8)

the new MediterraneanCoin Wallet v0.8.7.2 integrated with MediterraneanCoin Tipbot is now here!

https://github.com/mrtexaznl/mediterraneancoin/releases/tag/v0.8.7.2 (https://github.com/mrtexaznl/mediterraneancoin/releases/tag/v0.8.7.2)

This release of the wallet implements the integration with Twitter and Weibo Tipbot system for MediterraneanCoin. When sending MED to a user, you can type the username in the "Label" field, choose the platform to search (Twitter or Weibo are the supported platforms, at the moment) and click on the Lookup button. If the user has previously used the tipbot on the specified platform, then his/her MED address will be displayed in the "Pay To" textbox.


The integration works as follows:

In the Send form, in the Label field, type the name of the user to whom you want to send MED. Choose the platform (Twitter or Weibo).

http://i62.tinypic.com/104gpdk.png

Then click on the new button near the Weibo/Twitter drop down list.

The wallet queries the tipbot system for the MED address of that user; if the user has previously used the tipbot, than his MED address is shown in the "Pay To:" field, and you can send MED to the user!

This is a cool bot.

Do you make them for other people, and if so how much do you charge?

I've played with about 5 bots lately, and this is funniest.
