Sorry but I can't point you to the legislation (undang2) about trading in RI. I just picked up bits from local news. I used the situation here as an example of how merchant adoption is not always the solution.  Smiley

Yes you are right. A good part of the answer. Smiley
However, in Indonesia for example, it is illegal to trade ( buy goods using crypto) but OK to trade crypto for fiat. Also, merchants in small towns are unlikely to want to accept VRC direct but might be willing to have an ATM if they get a percentage from ATM use. Also, ATM's might help reduce the problem of price hiking by middlmen.
The world is so varied we will probably need many solutions to get VRC into mainstream use. It's already way ahead of other coins that are about as useful as a rubber crutch in a swamp.  Grin

Vericoin is really pushing the envelope getting crypto to a stage at which anyone including grandma can use it. It's fantastic work. I think it's visionary. It's all about utility. Nothing comes out of the box fully evolved.
Getting into VRC is easier and easier but the problem still remains that getting out of VRC into Fiat without internet / smartphone is very difficult. I know there are projects like Outernet etc aiming to provide free global internet access (including BTC blockchain) but they are still a long way off. Meantime millions of people only have access to dumbphones. No internet. No bank account. No Wi-Fi. No crypto exchange account. Not a criticism but what use is a wallet full of VRC to them?  Smiley
VeriSend gets the VRC to the dumbphone but how will people cash the VRC into local currency? Scratch card solutions are centralised and vulnerable to heavy markups.
It's a huge issue for millions who work abroad and want to send money home to family.
Is there some way for a dumbphone to securely communicate directly with an ATM by SMS / Bluetooth or could a code sent to the dumbphone be keyed into the ATM so as to access local currency?
Easy for me to identify the problem but a nightmare to solve it. Anyone any ideas? It will change the world forever.

Battbott... u really wanna flex and tempt me....



Well, I guess you and your boss get on very well together. You deserve each other. Maybe you could market poison dressed up as style. Legal if not particularly ethical. But then, you probably see yourselves as clever and tough and everyone else as dumb. You also seem to think XC needs you. Why not go away with your investors and see if XC rolls over and dies? I have a feeling it will survive without you. End

Debating on dropping your release early to the people..... Thats what happens when you fuck up on announcements and dont keep and Air-tight team.... I'm glad to hear the head of PR is back so i can personally say you are awful at your Job (real world your ass would have been canned on the spot)... Like I said the last TIME you botched the announcement learn from it... but u obviously didn't.. And before you retards call me a Troll check back and see how long i have been dedicated follower of XC since before the last rise and FUD crash and i stayed on board through the last FUD crash.... All props to DAN... PR get your FUCKING head out of the SAND... Not only do i major in marketing but I work in the corporate marketing world so I am very analytical on our PR...   O and if you don't believe i Know the announcements.... BatBottt leaked them to Mr. Boh..... so yeaa were deciding on what to do with the screen shot.. Next time make sure your inner circle doesnt have leaks

Who the hell do you think you are and where do you earn the right to talk to people in that way? Arrogant is hardly the word for it.
187  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][XC][OFFICIAL] PoS/Privacy on: July 08, 2014, 10:55:25 AM
Hello all.

I don't post much on these forums, am a bit of a quiet man. But this is the first time I feel an urge to write and say something to a few of you on the internet. I have been around XC from the beginning, I am not a big/rich investor in cryptoworld, I only hold a few coins. I have seen and felt the pump to 0,005 and the dump after. I haven't sold any of my coins and I still haven't bought any new ones till this moment. Why? Let me tell you why.

I realise there are a lot of traders in this cryptoworld who are going to the advantages of these hypes before releases by pumping and dumping. I don't mind that, they're actually good from time to time so other people notice us. What I don't get are the people who are acting like little children when there is a minor and unclear obstacle on the road. By reading some of the comments on the past pages it feels like there was a catastrophic event. But there wasn't. The announcements were maybe to much, but still.. Are we not making progress? Aren't we closer to our goal (XC goal) each day? People should stick together and take a breath.

NONE of us is going to get rich over night. You believe in something, buy it and hold it. There is a million coins out there, but is there truly a coin developed in such a short time with a better potential than XC? Developer, a public figure with clear intentions for the future? Maybe there is, but I ain't seeing it. If you can't believe the XC team (specially the dev), I don't know who you can in this cryptoworld. There are huge things coming up in the future with this coin/platform, and I want to be a part of it. Don't you?

My intentions with this little writing are not to pump/dump the price, I just had to clear my mind and I had to say a few words to ease people. I do believe the XC team are going to clear things up, but they are human beings and they can't be online 24/7 to answer all the questions and clear the situation. Let them be and let them do their work! If there was anything else I could do to help them out, I would but I am not a computer guy, I am an industrial engineer with a little love for tech inovations. But this writing is my best help.

Peace! -N


Well said. +1000

Let's see if I got this right.
Traders are people who courageously and skillfully devote huge amounts of energy and even some money, carefully supporting and nurturing new ideas in crypto with a view to making the world a better place even though they know they do so in a very risky space.They never grumble if they make a bad call.
They always keep themselves up to date and never mouth off before checking facts. They understand that ranting on a public forum just because they feel let down could in fact make everything much worse. Sort of wish fulfillment. Hey.these are professionals. The coin devs  are, in fact, employees of  the highly professional, ethical and devoted traders but are not permitted reward for their efforts. After all, so many devs have manipulated situations to increase the value of a token and then walked with the profits. Traders would never do such a thing.
Traders feed off the coin only for the benefit of the coin. When traders seemingly arrogantly demand results and post ugly and abusive remarks it is for completely altruistic reasons. Or when they threaten to dump K'sss of coins in what would seem to most people to be a spiteful tantrum from a spoiled 5 year old, don't be fooled. They are coin supporters and do it only for the good of the project. Any apparent impatience before release of new developments has nothing to do with getting timing right for selling and profit. Simple mortals should understand that.
Some might suggest that traders are simply skillful  parasites that put absolutely nothing into the project except money and rationalisations for their greed.. But I see no evidence of that.  The rumours that traders feed off noobs and "don't give a s##t about any coin" must surely be false. After all, they spend hours scanning markets and graphs. They invest.  Nothing to do with opportunistic greed.
I suppose there may be some fools out there who invest in a coin because they want it to succeed and introduce new things as astonishing as Satoshi. They want the devs to be rewarded and supported in the quest for future developments. It's a bit like believeing in something worthwhile other than money. Fools. They should be sent to Wall Street to see how  decent people  behave.

How about sponsored ads in the wallets? Pay in VER?  Wink

Yes. I'll buy them too. Please dump now.  Wink

Now I feel embarrassed I even raised the point about the ANN. I didn't want to invite abusive posts from people who seem to feel they own or employ the devs.  Angry
I thank you for your quick and polite reply to my post and appreciate that you will do your best. You guys are the furthest thing from lazy imaginable. Thanks for your work.

Verisay, Verido.  Grin

The ANN is often the first place people look for info about coins so being absolutely up to date is essential so as to keep rumour, fud etc in check and to let people see what a first mover VRC is. Great work and huge future ahead. Thanks to devs and community.  Grin
195  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][VRC] | VeriCoin | PoS - Dynamic Interest | SMS | ANON on: July 02, 2014, 04:53:07 AM
Moolah.io and VER developments possibly the biggest thing since the wheel but I have seen nothing 'bout it on this thread.
I ( and I guess many others, do not use Twitter or irc ). Devs please note. There is a world outside USA, Twitter and irc.
VRC   Best coin out there. Keep it going.  Grin

I'd like to suggest that most folk are bored sh**less by ANON but....
Most folk would like to keep their business and personal financial transactions PRIVATE.
Not "Dark, Anon, Cloaked, Hidden, Shady" but simply don't want every Tom Dick and Harry to nose around in private business. Open to scrutiny by any duly authorised agency. Private. Just like the mail or cash. Simples.
Crypto has obsessed about ANON because there's money in it. The fully decentralised tech has not even been fully developed yet. It's a fad. Move on. It will be developed and then people will have choice.  Smiley
Vericoin is a WINNER.

Hey Guys,

In the last day or so of testing we have one minor bug that needs ironing out in the new wallet.  So we will need another day I expect to knock it out, sorry about the delay we didn't anticipate this issue as can be common when integrating new technologies.  However you can use the VeriBit and VeriSend service at our website if your concerned about our commitment or ability to do the work.  So we kindly ask for some patience while we make this wallet solid as a rock before release.  Thanks for your time and support.

It would have been better if you'd shared this before the deadline had passed.

Big leagues now, boys. Time to start acting like professionals.



Shut up pedophile.

Careful Bitcycle is a pedophile  Roll Eyes

Oops making the same mistakes as Silkcoin. The guy is making a completely valid point and you are all being insulting schoolboys. The devs should have communicated the delay as soon as they became aware of it and not just on irc. The ANN is the primary source of information and should be kept constantly up to date.
The folk on Silk reacted just like you and failed to objectively view posts. They paid for it.
198  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][VRC] | VeriCoin | PoS - Dynamic Interest | SMS | ANON on: June 28, 2014, 04:24:40 AM
Events are happening at such speed that it is quite difficult to catch up:

Now that Wizfar/Wizrig/mctaino/J.Bosch has come out to become, apparently, only J. Bosch, will we have here those other handles or some of them -or other unknown ones- when he feels like "multiplying"? Or has he some assigned for specific coins, for instance Supercoin, where he posts frequently under mctaino, as he used to -I'm assuming he doesn't anymore- on the Black coin boards, etc.?

Perhaps Joel should come forward a bit more and let us know exactly how many handles he uses these days, so we can try to keep up...

While you are at it, can you check out the people behind Philip Morris, Starbucks and Yahoo. Thanks.

I see OUTERNET are to include BTC blockchain in broadcast so that means worldwide coverage/access for BTC ( maybe VER ? )for free. Not sure if they will succeed with the project but imagine if they do  Grin Grin Grin
