btw any confirmed news they will listing on COSS? If it is I think it is a good move securing an exchange this early. I did not notice Christian was an advisor. From what I have read he seems quite into the community. Let us see how this turns. It is interesting that they are currently expanding from Romania.

He has been going through ICO for quite sometime. Now I am not sure if he gets paid or not; But there were valid points mentioned. It always important to refer back to the whitepaper and official documentation to get the solid answers.

from my understanding they will be doing both. they will have their own sensors and also utilize existing sensors. Now technically I am not sure how they are doing it but that is my understanding so far. They will be having a lot of integrations; but I think all will be gradually taking place. 

In my humble opinion you have two ways about:

- You don't have to use crypto at all; You will need to adopt a gamification approach where at certain milestones you gain or you unlock more features on your blogging platform. This is good because you don't have to invest in running and ICO and get going with what you have.

- If you decided to incorporate a steemit like approach you will need to consider many aspect one of which is preserving the value of the token and the price hold. Basically the economics to it.

My point is you need to set a clear goal as to where you want to position your blogging platform. Clear goals will reveal the answer as to which to opt for.

Your goals should be obtained from the problem you are trying to solve. I mean there are many blogging platforms out there; why yours?

I am assuming COSS is one to start with; Coss supports fiat as well so it makes it a good place to list and raise funds. I think they can start listing with small-medium exchanges and build their way to the bigger exchanges. I know the bigger exchanges cost tons.

The sale has been going quite well; the community is also starting to show attention to it. I think the last video of crypto for the people (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb6_L1WwjIk) made a good impact currently at 1600+ views.

Interesting; did you check the requirements of joining?
   - Applicant must be an individual or organization promoting and facilitating Ethereum-based enterprise applications.
   - Applicant must agree to the EEA “Rules”, Intellectual Property Rights Policy, Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Policy, and the Antitrust Policy and Guidelines. Complete the membership inquiry form to receive all EEA policies.
   - Applicant must comply with local laws and regulations.

I think this means you have to have some sort of registration or license; or am I perceiving this differently?

"To use the miner as an incentive to catch the hacker"; that is a nice way to summarize it all. If you think about it; we have been using mining to get tokens that we can then use to trade around. Now your mining is still the same BUT you are set to catch hackers as you mine. You are rewarded still and above that you are attracting hackers.

Looks like they are sticking to their roadmap after all. that is great to know. I have been reading in various sources that they mentioned or planned release in Romania given they are a Romanian startup and also expand to Georgia as well if I am not mistaken. 

I was surprised to know they are planing expansion now. They started off in Romania and they plan to expand elsewhere. Accordingly to their roadmap it should be happening any time soon.

In the interview the following was mentioned that the beta version will be available in May in Bulgaria and Romania

Does it mean they will be operation or are operational now in Bulgaria and Romania? I read in the interview that they plan now is expansion. I understand they are operational.

I think they are already selling to the UK's National Grid. I am not sure about the mining plant though. I think mining would require the token present? The plants have accelerated progress massively.

They have the software operational? I did not know that. So now the hardware from my understanding is branded for bitfence and the software is in there too?

So that is something like an exchange but for energy. Imagine the competition that will be on place. the highly demanded energy provider the higher its price.

Being able to move energy cross border is interesting; If I own a KWATT that KWATT has a real KWATT pegged to it; in that sense I can own energy anywhere in the world and of course sell  it to whom ever i want in the platform.

Btw I asked on telegram about the sensors and whether they will be incorporated on the product level or the manufacturing level. It depends on the product. There are products where sensors are on the manufacturing facility.

It is a fairly new exchange and It is expected to boost given the promotion they have been doing. Plus compared to other exchanges it is fairly cheap. Hopefully Bittwatt will be able to pull this off.

I think the other value would be in the cost. Since you are saving in a practical way no over delivering where the excess could have been acquired by another entity. rather currently it just awaits for the next person to pick it up. Being able to optimize energy deliverables poses a great value.

Any number or stats out there on the performance of the plant that is selling to the grid? I understand in the whitepaper there are number of the potential of the plants but I am just curious what is the real delivery as of now given they are early.

Since it is fixed to that value it would make sense. It seems eth in the right realm right now so If this is pulled out it would be great success. I think the only drawback if ETH falls back to lower than that value in HNY. We are all waiting for the SEC decision. At least we will be able to these ideas implemented.
