I would look at getting a marketplace set up using ethereum or openbazaar. Neither of those projects are getting shut down.
Yup, you got it fartbags. We already have open software we plan on using for this that is exactly like ethereum or openbazaar. Essentially, the "shops" would be tucked inside the client software and can be pulled up within it on the fly. You can do the transaction straight from the wallet to the shop. The problem with ethereum or openbazaar is its BTC only. The marketplace isn't valuable, it's the users who are valuable. I couldn't agree more with this. I believe we have the proper community to make this big. I know Darkcoin blah,blah are already out there for the purpose of being anon. but, as far as I know they aren't built into any p2p marketplace. The last news I heard is 7 different decentralized market places were shut down by the FBI because they weren't fully decentralized.
This is correct. They were shut down because they weren't fully decentralized. |

Hello all, Just a little follow-up on this idea of a p2p marketplace using DopeCoin as the form of payment and where this came about. A lot of it was inspired by this article over at Liberty.me. If you skip down, to where Jeffery Tucker mentions why Silk Road came about it provides a compelling argument why the "silk roads" of the world matter. Here are some snippets: What is the case for the Silk Road? Well, for one thing, the government’s takedown is completely moot. There are now many more silk roads out there. The first was replaced by a second and the second by a third. In additions, there are a dozen other sites out there that provide a reliable peer-to-peer system of commercial exchange that live outside the strict confines of the law. They will proliferate and grow. Nothing can change that. Which is correct. There are plenty of clones who have continued on, with many hundreds to still come as the years go. Here is a longer snippet that is the meat of the issue:Who has an interest in shutting them down? There are three parties: meddling politicians who are trying to manipulate voters, entrenched bureaucrats who like to exercise power, and drug lords who don’t want to see their monopoly control over drug markets threatened. P2P exchange networks threaten the interests of all three.
Regardless, no one can stop the progress toward getting the drug trade off the street and into cyberspace where there is reputational accountability, free entry and exit, and, above all, peace. And let’s just be realistic here: no one will ever get rid of the production and consumption of illicit drugs. The only question is whether this trade is going to take place in a way that is peaceful and productive or risky or violent.
But let’s say that is a hard truth for you to swallow. Imagine it is your son or daughter. He or she is interested in trying pot or ecstasy or cocaine. It’s been known to happen. Would you rather he or she have to mix with the drug-trading culture, risk life and limb crawling around dark corners or society, throw the dice concerning the safety and quality of the drug in questions — or do it all from the desktop where the risk of drug taking is the only serious risk he or she undertakes? Wouldn’t you rather his or her supplier get the stuff in a manner that insures against poisonous death?
It’s a bit like it was during alcohol Prohibition. In those days, bootleggers distributed killer substances at a profit, and cases of poisoning were legion. That all came to an end once market accountability and competition came into play with legalization. That same course needs to be taken with regard to drugs.
Truly, lives are stake here. P2P markets really do offer a solution to the problems created by the drug war. Millions have died or languished in jail. If Ross really did innovate here, it is much to his credit. He would emerge as a man of peace seeking to improve society. If that was part of his motivation, jurors have every right to know it and judge his actions in light of that fact — and judge the law too, which has brought so much human suffering where it is absolutely unnecessary. So your asking what does this have to do with DopeCoin ? You do realize if this is pulled off we'll be the only crypto currency ( outside of BTC ) which helps enable a safe/free and decentralized dark market for the people of the world. What is that worth to you ? It even goes beyond what the value of such a market would be , but goes to what even Ross Ulbricht was getting at : a philosophy around the drug wars in general. What is right. Millions of people doing riskier deals , or providing a safe route to receive what they need. Just wanted to throw this out for you to gnaw on as you lay down your head to sleep . The key point being is this is GOING to HAPPEN . How far can we take this ? |

Well that took a bit longer to set everything up than expected (reinstalled computer a few days ago, so was missing some tools), I started on the pledge page, we're going to have separate sections for different things, eg we were donated 100k coins before the v3 swap, so will list that under general donations. Then we can have other sections if we come up with other ideas. Have also set up a block scanner so we can see where the coins come from, in case we ever want to send them back if we change plans etc.
Great Aaron! I'm over on IRC if you want to chat about anything. |

Consider me in for 275k DOPE for your bounty
2MM DOPE. I'm starting to get jealous here. ETA: Any higher and I'm breaking open the programming books myself.  No kidding. I need to start thinking about this myself  Yes, was moving some servers around yesterday, so will get up to date with the pending v2>v3 exchanges tonight and also get at least a basic page up for the donation site, I'm working on a way that I record who it comes from (but allowing users to say anon if they prefer) so that we can refund if needs be to keep everything fair. Yes, this is perfect. I'll jump on IRC shortly. Things are moving forward don't entertain any trolls going forward it basically does nothing. |

Good plan dopecoindude, I'll donate too.
I'll also set up a page for pledges, a address for holding donations for this bounty and a page showing what has been donated so far to keep it all open.
Great. Yes, a page for showing pledges and an address to hold the funds for transparency is good idea. Thanks for doing this! Great response to this! I'll update everyone here shortly w/ more details. I pledge....1 BILLION dopecoins! 1 Billion would be nice! |

Nobody pays me, I am a Dopecoin investor.
This is why you bash your "Dopecoin investment" all day long here and spread FUD against it. Got it . If you are DopeCoin investor then I have a bridge to sell you. You don't like the spotlight being shown on your complete lack of development with this coin. Understandable.
Makes total sense to bash your "investment" with comments like above . Just amazing. Can't make this up folks. You heard it hear first he invested in DopeCoin to bash it. It speaks for itself. edit: also, quit harassing one of our dev's of DopeCoin been reading over your post history . All your posts are harassment directed toward him/dopecoin in general. I'll just have report you to a mod here at BTCtalk ( since your a newb account won't be hard to do ) to get you banned from this thread. Thanks. We are open to criticism and transparency ,but your whole account is dedicated to harassment and fud'ing. I expect better going forward from you on here since you claim your an "investor" and toward anyone in this community thanks for your understanding. He may also have written off his investment and is attempting to get back at you, or possibly trying to spur you to action (albeit that's a shitty way to go about it). Your marketplace bounty is a definite break in the clouds dopecoindude. Don't let FUD get you down. Thanks Hallowman. I'm pretty sure this is what happened and if s/he could just come out and say this is the problem as with all coins in the alt-space we haven't been perfect , but I have to have some decency toward people in our community. We/I determined to make a p2p marketplace for DopeCoin to better spur interest and use. Already got commitment towards the bounty from one prominent member already. Consider me in for 300,000 DOPE for your bounty Thanks Bud! Full details on contributions coming forth , but I'll put forth that much or greater. Thanks again! |

Do you know somebody who would pay me? I wish I was making money from crypto, especially Dopecoin.
So your admitting your willing to be paid to spread FUD good to know what you are about. At least we've outed you for what you are nothing but a two-bit FUDster. You going to answer the question or deny you are getting paid ? I'm sure there would be plenty of coins who would love your services. Whats the hold up , move along , yes ? |

What exchanges is dopecoin still rocking on? And yea we would be willing to accept it, we took the pipes off our main site and are transferring them elsewhere, but if there is anything you guys want that's not seen please let me know! Check out https://bittrex.com this one seems to be the one rocking it out. Ok , sounds good! It's pretty sad you have to rely on ghost accounts to create astroturf support.
You think PixSkull is me ? To funny. Try again! btw: who pays you to spread FUD or does that just come naturally to you is it placebo who is it ? |

Hi all! We would like to put a Dopecoin bounty out here ( maybe crowdfund it? ) for a decentralized marketplace backed by DopeCoin. We will only be involved in the bounty aspect of it and will find people to check out the open source code and build upon it. We have a system in mind which already has the ability to operate over anonymity-preserving network Tor from the start and will allow us to add DopeCoin as a form of payment. The idea is to bring DopeCoin back to its original intentions and restore faith to long-term holders of DopeCoin we intend to meet those obligations. I know some recent posting ( partially my fault ) have given the impression we were steering away for the initial vision of this coin. Don't fret this isn't the case. Onward we go...So the idea is this: So the DopeCoin wallet will stakes yours coins, makes you a node for the decentralized network, anonymizes you, mixes your coins, allows you to host your own marketplace, and search through other peoples shops all within the DopeCoin software All payments of course made in the marketplace will be DopeCoin. To incintivize say a grow shop, to open up on the DopeCoin de-centralized marketplace , we will peg the the price of DopeCoin to what they offer. ( We have the formula but wanting to keep it secret ). Our/My goal is to have this implemented in 2015. No ifs or buts :-) More being laid out ,but this is the ground work. Lets seperate ourselves out from the rest of these coins with a true de-centralized marketplace powered by DopeCoin!! lets get some community dev's involved in building this out. We need to have more talented people get in involved in our community here to take a huge leap here to push ourselves out pass everyone out there who is in to make this happen ? PM here or if interested e-mail: dopecoin@gmail.com |

Doing mighty good thanks! Yes, good to have you back in the loop for sure. I like this offer nice!  edit: forgot to ask you still accept DopeCoin ? lol |

DOPE needs to integrate itself into the Open Bazaar decentralized P2P market that is being developed as the next evolutionary leap in dark markets. This is DOPE's salvation and its best opportunity to fulfill the original purpose of its founding.
Funny you should say that as I'm about to post a bounty idea around this. Give me a minute to post the information about it here. Funny YOU should say THAT as I've been thinking about offering my own bounty on this. No sense in hoarding all this DOPE if it's I'm never going to be able to buy a dumptruck full of dank with it. Maybe we can put our coins together. I'm going to jump in IRC real quick. Tell me what you have in mind.
Haha really a small world as I was literally going to hit "post" here about it. I agree w/ why hoard something that can't be used yet. Let me post the details I have here so far. I'll jump on IRC in a minute |

Hey everyone,
Sorry been MIA, have been dealing with a lot of problems over my way that I've had to handle and take a step back from everything. How's everyone been?!
Wow, long time no talk! what is up Pix man! I hope everything is ok with your problems! How is the shop going ? |
