Bitcoin Forum

Hello,

This post is just to serve as a very early pre-announcement for the release of 'Dwoin' a new cryptocurrency.

Information is mostly provisional and subject to change.

Usecase

I intend to integrate Dwoin into the microblogging social network I am currently coding: dwable.com (http://dwable.com).

You can follow the progress with Dwable here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1559681.60 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1559681.60).

I have many ideas of what I would like to do with Dwoin including, hopefully, integrating it into other innovative platforms down the line.

However I would stress this is still nothing but a fun side-project at this time.

Inception

After a-lot of brainstorming and domain searching I came up with the name 'Dwoin'.

Dwoin is a combination of the recognisable 'Dw' from 'Dwable' and 'oin' from 'Coin'.

I was initially leaning to something completely separate from Dwable but Dwoin started to grow on me and fortunately the .com TLD was available to boot.

Specs

Specifications are still being decided.

There is an option right now where I will keep a very high % of all coins in existence. This would be to incentivise future projects in a way similar to XRP.

I also like the idea of having fixed supply although it does bring some challenges with it.

PoS is preferable over PoW.

I'm likely to outsource the creation of the coin to a reputable dev or service.

Distribution

There will be no ICO in the traditional sense. It is intended that most of any necessary finance and time will be provided by myself.

The initial publicly available supply will be released for free accross a number of different channels. Notably: Bitcointalk, Social Media & Dwable itself. The economic model for earning Dwoins on Dwable is still being decided on.

Additional supply may be sold into market or otc at anytime for any reason. However I intend to only sell in order to cover costs and for any reasonable profits. When preferable and/or possible trades can be made public before or after execution for transparency.

Extras

The language used might be a bit more blunt and carefully worded than in other ANN's this is because I want to ensure people understand the circumstances involved and for any potential legal reasons.

Website: dwoin.com (http://dwoin.com) (being built).

The logo is currently still being designed.

There's something on this project that we all need to watch,I have an seo and social campaign service and this is the kind of project worth your funds and time,coming from a reputable member and with pre announcement and no ico ,I'm looking forward to this huge project.

As muratsink stated.


I don't want to put a date on anything just yet. When I have a reasonable estimate I will update. It will likely be in the region of weeks to months, if that helps.

You're very kind sirs.


Lots of people have been messaging and posting regarding translations. Just to be clear I will not be honouring any early reservations for translations. I will publicly announce when reservations, if applicable, can be made.

Original post has been updated with graphics.

Update from Dwable thread:

You are Ben, I know you, i will watch it.   :D   Will there any ico or crowdfunding?

I do not intend to raise any finance initially, certainly not from the public.

This is something I like in this project.  I will be watching this thread and will support the project when it materialized.  I also like the proposed concept of this thread.

I registered and tried to explore Dwable,  pretty much a twitter clone but of course some improved concept.  I hope that eventually  you can create the site unique identity and site design. 

Thanks for the support.

Yes it's extremely similar to Twitter, especially right now as a base concept which you pointed out.

We've had some external interest as-well (outside of crypto) mainly from liberals interested in freedom of speech principles, fuelled by the US election for more direct Twitter alternatives/competition.

That's a good start for a project,it will not get any criticism or you will attach it to the much used word Ico in the crypto currency industry,I hope this is something that we can use daily and will be profitable for traders.

Nice project and I loved the website.Maybe we can see a tipping bot in it so community can encourage each others for constructive or funny posts and all in a totally decentralized concept

Yes not raising funds has the advantage of lowering demands whilst maintaining any expectations people might have. My only concern relating to this is the supply % reserved by myself. This is clearly a very important element to how Dwoin will, if it does, succeed.


Thanks the Dwable UI is still subject to tweaks and particularly the profile pages may be changed significantly.

A tipping bot of sorts will most definitely be included to allow easy transfer of Dwoins between users on Dwable. The further economic model, including incentivisation and monetisation strategy I'm still thinking hard about.

Unfortunately/fortunately Dwable is not decentralised nor was the intention for it to be. First and foremost I wanted something that could be legally compliant and I found the technology behind making it decentralised would be challenging and potentially limiting down the the road.

On that subject, I am a big fan of Stratis and have had discussions with Chris about utilising a side-chain to allow for a sort of hybrid feed where possible. That's a long way off right now though.

Update from Dwable thread:


I'm not sure if posting like this is acceptable after reading the unofficial rules: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0)


Technically duplicate is defined as an exact copy, which it isn't, nor is it technically a post but rather a quote. Likewise it is within the allowed frequency.

Since Dwable is a major part of Dwoin right now and the focus of development, I want to keep people informed. If the Mod's have a problem with this please let me know.

Thanks :)

This project looks great and Legit. Will be watching closely.

At least you have updated and kept us in touch with what is going on. I am hoping by the end of the year there will be something to show. It does not even matter if it is something small at least anything is better then nothing. Hopefully you will have something just before christmas.

How and more importantly when can i get some free dwoin?

Thank you.


The end of the year was always the goal but I won't rush things. If they need more time, they need more time. I will however always strive to give SMART (the business acronym for those unaware) goals. But yes that would be lovely.

I am working from the end of November until Christmas but it's in IT so there should/might be room for overlap.


Distribution method still being decided on. It will be likely be heavily weighted to activity on Dwable.

I've made initial contact with a law firm in London to discuss legal implications on any proposed supply, distribution, policies etc.

I understand people might be keen to get earning Dwoin so I'll try and keep you posted as to any efforts you can do in the mean time.

Thanks :)

I like the idea of the microblogging network, so basically will users be rewarded in DWOINS for various activities and adding quality content to the DWOIN site? Maybe you can also have like a premium package for business owners whereby they get say an X amount of advertising on the site for the businesses and websites? Maybe make it affiliate friendly as well so people can heavily promote and earn a commission in DWOINS? Just giving you an angle from an internet marketer's perspective. :)

Yes, pretty much.

Yes there will undoubtably be an advertising suite built in but that comes second to just getting the platform up and running from a users perspective. I agree of affiliate friendly and yes there will be that feature. The tricky bit comes in making sure it's not mis-used e.g. unique users only.

Thanks for your thoughts.

I have been watching the Dwable concept for a while now, Dwoin is a great addition to the Dwable concept.
I can also say Dwoin is a awesome Coin Name.
Will continuously watch this.

Thank you.
