Two further ?'s: 1) Will this platform you speak of be 100% decentralized and open source (true peer-to-peer, via Open Transactions, etc.)? 2) Will registration be voluntary or forced? If forced, definitely not interested, as it bucks the spirit of community. If voluntary (meaning the visitor gets the goods, regardless), I bring much to the table: http://UberNifty.com |

Do you actually have control over the trades?

Are you willing to adapt the Zerocoin protocol? If so, how much extra?

Glad its more to your taste, anymore recommendations will be mulled over too.
Just signed up after reading the entire thread. Frankly, I think you've got a brilliant business model (I actually "get" it), and some serious potential here. You're obviously going to need more mod's in fairly short order. I'd like to volunteer, if so (i.e. I'd get paid same as anyone else per post, etc.) Also, suggestion, and a ?: Suggestion: Lift the 1 payout every 30 days to once per week. Question: Receptive to a JV? |

I might be interested in your offer OP but the the price you are offering does not interest me much. If you are looking for experienced and quality article writers then you should raise the price bar. Do let me know wen you do. Thank you  I agree with the above observation. If you what quality, you'd do well to reconsider your plan. If you're basically looking for pulp, then 10USD is ok... Please do let me know also, if you raise the price bar. Thanks! |

Agree with OP, Warrior Forum is a good place to get the marketing buzz going.

Do you know what version of Wine (if any) this amazing-looking app might run under?

Thanks. Those threads are definitely of interest.
Reading them made me realise that a really good application of this idea would be to build a distributed altcoin exchange. Altcoin exchanges are essential because trading from BTC into an altcoin and back is almost like the zerocoin concept, so long as the exchanges are black boxes. Imagine a distributed exchange that replicated itself with the profit!
The obvious weakness here is that people with physical access to the hardware can steal its wallet or manipulate the software, and it would be easy to trick an autonomous agent into purchasing a VPS from you for this purpose.
To take this even one step further, and into a viable "proof of concept" capability, I highly encourage you to check out Open-Transactions.org which is a 100% open source powerhouse perfecly suited to these very types of tasks. Except that in Open-Transactions (OT), the personalities (or "characters", if you will) are called Nyms (shortened from 'pseudonym'). A Nym can either be human, AI, or smart-contract driven; able to start it's own virtual corporation, exercise trades (as contracted; in the case of a smart contract-powered Nym), run their own "in-house" peer-to-peer exchange, escrow... you name it. And this doesn't even begin to scratch OT's real capabilities (i.e. asset-backed digital basket currencies, etc.) But alas I am not a coder / developer, and it would appear that a fairly savvy amount of knowledge is required to compile it for Linux; hence I must wait for a more universal (browser-based?) app to manefest; hopefully as an open source-based community Project. Here's the OT mainpage: http://opentransactions.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_PageHere's an in-depth article I wrote, introducing OT's undeniable open source awesomeness: http://open-transactions.github.io/introduction/2014/01/16/revolutionary/ |

This is way phreakin' awesome! I am salivating at all of the Equity Partner / Affiliate Partner venues of wildly lucrative opportunity that this BEGS to unleash.
Is the code / app available for immediate download? Open source? Java-based?
I've been deeply hungering for exactly such a thing of exquisite beauty! I'd even be willing to help out with documentation, tutorials, etc. (if indeed you're releasing it open source).

Question: Would the following scenario be practical under real-world usage?
Let's say that you were to render your initial stenographed image as a BMP. Then let's say that you compress both the original image and the stenographed image into an identically compressed JPG setting (i.e. 90% JPG compression), and then proceed to upload both to the Internet Archive (does not manipulate / reformat images in any manner whatsoever).
Would the above scenario even be practical? The basic idea here, is to obfuscate the stenographed image enough to make detection at least a bit more difficult.
Naturally, each oth the two images would be stored on separate and unique Archive pages.

Will you be sharing the finished product freely (i.e. Creative Commons license)?

Adding the comparison data in a tabbed format would definitely make for an exceptionally smooth end user experience. Open-Transactions looks really intriguing and will probably get implemented at some point but it wont be top priority unless it wins the vote.
I'd be mighty obliged if you'd add it as a poll option (and kindly count my "Something else" vote as one vote for OT). I will then make a general Open-Transactions Community announcement accordingly, to cordially invite them in on the voting action. In all cases, very exiting stuff! And your price for the Pro version is more than reasonable; made better by the fact that you'll be accepting BTC.  |

How would this work in a practical manner?

Is the app downloadable as of yet? Looks very sweet.
