Since it's in altcoin, the title should say "We are the new elite... bagholder's edition"

As soon as the media get hold of Szabo...  Satoshi will post a signed message, "I am not Nick." 

OR (most likely) he wont do anything and let them think that Nick is him.
That way nobody will bother with him again  Wink

So that means he's Dorian? Wink

Please stop these useless conspiracy theories. It does not matter if Satoshi was just a regular man, CIA or NSA agent.
Bitcoin is open source; Bitcoin works and currently has no flaws. It does not matter who created it.
End of story.

And the predictable cover-up attempts begin! Just more proof that I'm onto something they don't want people to know about.

LOL. Nice

Probably because there's no new wave of would be bagholders coming in... So what's the point?

Like Storj?  http://storj.io

That looks quite smart, very well put together. How does it look from a distribution standpoint, it seems to also be investor based but investment can often ruin a project if not done right.

No idea about the distribution.  But they had a Storj presale...  That usually isn't good distribution-wise.  I hope they do well though.

SendChat Crowdfunding Campaign Goes Live on BlockTrust

Social messaging applications are playing an ever-increasing role in our daily lives, as we want to be in contact with the rest of the world at any given time. Most everyday consumers have a few different messaging apps on their devices. This growing prevalence of social messaging could be beneficial for Bitcoin adoption. SendChat wants to capitalize on this potential, and has launched a crowdfunding campaign to make its app available for both iOS and Android users.

But what about POW coins.. There was no issuer, the coines were mined.

A miner of a cryptographic currency, upon transferring ownership of the "mined" currency, would, presumably, be considered (at least, under the law being discussed) a "distributor" of the currency.

There has to be a legal loophole there.
14209  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Decentralized Currency Issuers May Still Require License on: May 16, 2015, 04:08:14 AM
This is not fun stuff but hard to ignore.

For who's interested about regulation proposals in the US: this article is a bit dated (Feb 2015) but probably still relevant:

"Decentralized Currency Issuers May Still Require License - The first draft of the BitLicense stated that, “controlling, administering, or issuing a Virtual Currency” qualifies as Virtual Currency Business Activity subject to licensing. This remains unchanged in the new draft, and that’s unfortunate."
https://coincenter.org/2015/02/our-initial-thoughts-on-new-yorks-revised-bitlicense-proposal/

I'm not sure how things are going in Europe but I would guess regulation proposals will be fairly similar. From reading multiple articles it sounds like the biggest requirement to get legal will be "KYC" or Know Your Customer.

It's not a matter of "if", but "when" and if we can come up with a system that satisfies some of those requirements we can have a chance to play, otherwise it looks like much of the innovations will be pushed underground.

EDIT: here's the full text of the first New York proposed regulations: http://www.dfs.ny.gov/about/press2014/pr1407171-vc.pdf

Any thoughts?

14215  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: CoinAwesome is the most innovative coin or what do you think? on: May 14, 2015, 01:28:38 AM
Is this being traded in the exchanges?  If so, that's awesome!  Look here soon https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1059045.0

"This so and so coin will gain adoption... etc etc.." Then they proceed to flame you for making them realize that their bag holding and they also blame you for the coin's downfall because "you're not doing your part"... Wut?

Also, "the tech is better than every coin out there, so it will rise soon".  LOL
14218  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: FinCEN Conducting 'Examinations' of Digital Currency Businesses on: May 13, 2015, 01:47:55 AM
They can DDOS, sure..  But I was talking about FINCEN making you stop acquiring POW coins. 

Don't want to offend you, but most of your discussions are pointless and they seem like you are trying to gather some activity here on the forum.
Can't blame you for that, but when someone express his opinion, you should actually read it before continuing like broken gramophone.
What others have said is clear. If governments decide to f* us - they will. You may then even believe that you can mine Californium with your PSU (yes, PSU.. not GPU or whatever), but it won't matter.

Nothing personal my friend.


Looks like you're right...

DriveShare Test Group B Plan

Dear Storj Supporters,

Test Group B is the first time we will be rewarding DriveShare users for participating in the Storj network. Test Group A got us usable data on network latency, disconnects, uptime, and other factors. In this test group we will be specifically testing out reward mechanisms, and expanding the storage capacity of the network as a whole.
