Good projects take time!

When did you update website ?

TODAY is the end of the week.

mi dispiace non avere potuto contribuire a questa ico peccato...forse piu avanti ci investiro qualcosina...

Well if she breaks the $9.60 resistance lookout.

Why I believe in Minereum

(Full Disclosure: I have gotten behind this project on a magnitude of 1000s of dollars.)

As I have written about before, assuming the developers follow through, there is a lot to be excited about with this token.

Here are the obvious strengths on Minereum:

First coin to self-mine
   Releases in predictable way
   Does not require energy

First to create easy token creation service
   This will include tokens that use the same innovative self-mining process
   Will make ethereum token use-cases accessible to the masses

Potential world-wide lottery service
   Paid into only with Minereum
   Increases rate at which Minereum is taken out of circulation

Tokens received from services will be destroyed
       Taking them out of circulation and increasing scarcity/value

But there is much that gives me pause for concern. The primary tenants of Ethereum are decentralization and transparency. This project does well at the former, but is lacking in the latter. The way the Ethereum addresses are set up with smart contracts, to release tokens at a trickle, with no outside manipulation is spot-on. The idea behind the project is good too, creating a service that will allow the masses to create decentralized tokens for decentralized services. But the elusiveness of the developers is concerning.

The person behind the domain registration of the main site is anonymous, the updates are vague and few and far between, there is no window into developer communication, there has been no mention of how many addresses the developers have reserved for themselves, there has been no public invitation to the community to test services in development or a piece of digital evidence to show progress on future services, to name a few.

Even so, I still believe in this project. Here is why.

First and foremost, when the developers do deliver on their promises (assuming they are good products). They are going to be huge. Creating and easy to use service to create tokens will change the landscape of Ethereum and Crypto in general. Minereum in many ways will become a gateway to Ethereum (plus the whole new type of smart-contract-trickle-release-thing).

Second, this token is limited big time. There just isn’t much of it. It doesn’t take that many investors to raise the price. When the developers follow through with their promises, it’s going to sky-rocket. Even without the whole destroying tokens used for official Minereum services promise.

Third, this token is out in the wild. It doesn’t matter what the developers do at this point. A solid algorithm has already been set up and tied to 4000+ genesis ETH accounts. This token is going to continue trickling into the crypto space for the next 47 years, period; even if the developers do nothing, even if the developers reserved half+ genesis addresses for themselves. The worst that could happen - they slowly sell their stake as it becomes available and someone else buys into the token.

Fourth, we don’t need the developers anymore. The important infrastructure of this token has been built. The tokens are in place, smart contracts have been initiated, the developers built something that can’t be stopped. We have a bonafide working cryptocurrency. WE can build services that only accept Minereum, if we wanted to (well I couldn’t, because I don’t know anything about coding, but you catch my drift). Don’t get me wrong, I want the developers to follow-through, but if they don’t, we can pick up the slack.

Fifth and finally, I don’t think the developers have bowed out yet or will anytime soon because the pay-off simply isn’t big enough for them yet. With such a small amount of Minereum released each day combined with the small market cap, the amount of work put into this token just doesn’t equal the pay-off at this point. Even if this is a scam, the scam-artists are playing the long game, they need this token to be a solid mover in the market. Even if the developers have half the addresses reserved for themselves, a lot more work will need to be put into the promotion and reputation of this token before they will be able to sell it at a significant profit. From what I can tell the DNA of this token just wasn’t built in a way conducive to scam-artists.

I don’t know why the developers don’t open up more channels of communication and avenues of transparency and to be frank, I find it bothersome as it seems antithetical to the project. But regardless of our qualms with the way the project is being managed, I think the evidence that this is a legitimate project which will benefit all participants is much stronger than the opposite. This is why I believe in Minereum and think it will succeed in unexpected and hopefully immeasurable ways.

The prices are crashing like anything. I was expecting a correction (in fact I even made a post about it yesterday), but I never expected that it will be this bad. Now it has gone below $1,900 in Bitfinex.

yes when the bitcoin is goint to hit 5K $

Can't wait for Chinese market to discover etc. Uber bullish.

I guarantee it will go under 2000$ this week. This crazy kind of price increase is way too much. We are seeing some falls, and maybe a bit of recovery, but I would overall be bearish looking at the ahead weeks.

today the BTC lost some , but now is coming up again! what do you think guys it will go back under 2000$ ?
