Hi,

First you have to buy bitcoin. There are several ways to do this but the safest is to open an account in coinbase. Then  you will own bitcoin (not an immediate process but not too long either --usually a few days).

Second, while you wait for coinbase to deliver the bitcoin, you need to open a trading account either in Cryptsy, Mintpal or Bittrex (there are other exchanges but these are the main three).

Third, when coinbase delivers your btc, you transfer it to your trading account. At that point you will be able to buy Vericoin in any of those exchanges.

After that you may want to have your own wallet outside of the exchanges, in which case you need to download it to your computing device.

Thank you for delivering us all again to reality to see just how far we are from any form of adoption by the general public, let alone merchants in a significant amount.

It sounds more complicated than it actually is but those are needed steps. Good luck!

Can you please take a moment or two to at least re-read what you post? These boards are not just read by illiterate cheerleaders, but by educated individuals too. And you post as the developer of the project...

Amazing, really amazing.

And "radio"...

The levels of delusion here are to be seen to be believed, really...

Not in the next 20 years you will ever pass the receptionist at Apple if you are to mention digital currencies, let alone VRC.

Wow, wow, wow...

And yep Arsenio, the entire world is conspiring to push the price of VRC down... not that not having made ANY progress whatsoever since launch, has anything to do with it...

Amazing. Simply amazing...

That is, indeed, the deal they are taking weeks to "consider".

Just to make clear one point in your post is a bit confusing: Yes, if and when VRC reaches 0.001, dev4 would buy those 500k at current price -of today- and the donors will receive the proceeds from him, so, in fact, they would have not put a single VRC into the deal.

Not completely clear either is the term of this deal, but we were led -by Drkman- to believe that it would be up to the end of the year or earlier.

I would reiterate my previously posted question to Drkman, is "boxxa" 'dev4'?

Err... dude, we have had a long series of encounters (encounters online, that is), Nosker, Pike and me, so whenever they post something here, there's never just "chill out", ok? We know very, very well -them and me- that they want to effect the highest level of censorship. They have both DONE so -many times- and expressed to that effect several others. So no, it isn't "chill out" it is, indeed, trying to justify exercising censorship. Period. And hey... dude, it's ok with me: They will not silence the criticism, the very well deserved criticism and, as usual, the move will bite themselves in the arse. Like every single decision, so far, has.

This is not new, of course (nothing -but the initial new standard of transparency... what an irony that is going to be...- in in Vericoin, everything seems to be copy/paste, even behaviors) and was implemented already and by very much the same reasons, by BlackCoin which these guys want so desperately to copy... only thing is that, as usual, they will not learn from their mistakes: Since they closed the unmoderated forum, BC has never ceased to go down.

Not only I haven't been a "bad boy" I have been, actually, the ONLY one here that, in spite of the relentless attacks, has not retaliated at all and has not uttered a single bad word... the effect though, is the same: We are dealing with beasts of the worst kind. And beasts would be beasts. End of that story.

My spelling is just fine, it's simply that posting from a smartphone is tedious and prone to errors.

As for the image of Vericoin, what can you expect when the dev team has not done anything at all since launch and most of their "efforts" are concentrated on establishing widespread censorship and actually exercising it on a daily basis wherever they are allowed to? The beasts here don't help, of course, but the ill is endemic and deeply rooted in the origins. These guys, the devs, lack everything that is needed to carry on a project like this: Technical skills -we don't have any doubts in that department, do we?-, leadership and a clear, defined goal... let alone any semblance of a plan to achieve it. Even the tag "good guys" has already been destroyed (by them). So what's left is a great community -that will be ashamed of the "supporters" that post here- that is more than ready to jump off the boat as soon as the losses are somewhat diminished. So the image of Vericoin has been dirtied, and not precisely by those like myself that look at the project with detailed and specific criticism but -I repeat- by the devs themselves and, more specifically, their fully evidenced gross incompetence at every single level.

Now, these are not "accusations" or "wild theories"... this is a real, specific action: When the theft happened, Patrick Nosker transferred from his personal account 200k VRC to Mintpal. Acknowledged and widely known fact. I have received, from the horse's mouth, an "explanation" that wouldn't convince a 2 year old, to justify such move. So why not try again and for everyone to see the extent of the ridiculousness of the "explanation". That would be "transparency", wouldn't it? It's nothing particularly "wild" and definitely not a "theory". It is also not an "accusation" since it is a not denied fact... why try to dissolve it like it never happened, like you are doing? Mudding the waters is the opposite of transparency. And you want transparency, don't you?

Oh then by all means hurry up and close it and proceed with those fabulous deals you are aceing with third parties such as moolah and coinsis.... since those have proven to be so beneficial for the project (I know, I know, by 2040  we'll begin to see how beneficial they are a what a visionary you were). We are quite literally  forcing you to do what you have been so.long aching to do... go for it Nosker and, by the way, you can take the historic opportunity to tell everyone exactly what the purpose of the transfrr of you 200k vrc was.

So there are no more doubts or confusing interpretations...

You can also clarify that the dev team is not going to enter the vouching of new escrow businesses business.

I have already told uou many times every time you post anything here -and more so on the IRC that you control-- is inappropriate, negative for vericoin and, basically, shooting four own foot or worse. The related actions that took place on IRC are, again, proof of your innate proclivity to act inappropiately. You should never, ever, in the course of any transaction or proposed transaction between particulars "vouch" for anyone. Period. Escrow or any other part. No ifs, no buts. Not seriously, not in jest. If you are present during such public interchange it is your ETHICAL obligation to make the acquiring party fully aware of the current price of the coin in the open market though.

That is, of course, if you have any sense of ethics at all...

@Darkman: The community doesnt need and should not be involved in Juggernaut. But it should be INFORMED WHEN THE DEAL IS REACHED. You and the devs should escrow the amount agreed upon fully and it will still be the best investment any of you have ever made if dev4 delivers even a fraction of what you said he will deliver, so why asking now? And, again, is "boxxa" dev4?

So Pike and Raevon -among others- were not just trying to perpetrate highway robbery on IRC but actually entering the "business" of providing escrow services to assist in the robbery. Well, well, welll... it is good that we wont ever again try to sell the "good guys" image... Now, about those 200k VRC Nosker rushed to Mintpal when the 8 million were robbed... what was again the purpose? Ah yes you told me it was to controll all buys... sounds legit.

Two quick corrections bucko: AltcoinUK and me, two VERY different individuals.
Second: i will never disparage the single asset this project has, its community. Mind you, the real community, those who read this thread but rarely post and that support the project to the extreme of staking around 20 million coins. Chapeau to those. The 4 Yahoos -you included- that call themsrlves "community" here are something (toxic) else entirely.

The usual bullshit I was talking about... ^^^^   ^^^^

Isn't it quite peculiar that the people that have me on "ignore" continue feeling the absolute need to inform ME of it?

Even more peculiar is the fact that I have long ignored completely -and continue to- any and all the usual crap they feel compelled to post.

Peculiar indeed...

I personally like sunsets better but everyone has its preferences...

T R U T H. Short enough?

Edit to add though: As in the opposite of your usual bullshit.

Oh it goes with the territory... cheerleaders, you know? Eloquence is not your most precious asset: It seems that dumbness is indeed a requirement instead.
No you don't sound deranged... yet. Perhaps solidly on the way, I don't know... first symptom usually is an unrealistic perception of what prices are, so you tell me...

Uuh? Going up? I must have missed that "60 Minutes" but it looks to me at exactly the same price it was last night when I went to sleep... now, compared to the lows of the weekend, long weekend, it is up what, 5%? Stop the presses because such a move never, ever happens in crypto.

But I am quite sure the cause of this "surge" resides in the constant activities of the dev team and the few vocal active cheerleaders such as you, as well as the rumors of yet another Nosker-hosted Hangout spectacular. By all means, continue bringing in the dough...

I don't have any agenda, you on the other hand, do. And I twist nothing, I clarify who of the two beasts is a homophobe and who is an illiterate idiot  obsessed with the idea of eating dick... which you seemed to have upside down as per your post on the matter.... uuuh, another thing -of the many- that you seem to not have quite clear is what "fornication" actually means: It is NOT, nor has anything to do with eating dick, a practice commonly called "fellatio" that, I repeat, has nothing to do with fornication.

Oh and yes, it calls the general people's attention way more when you post a half dozen times "Eat dick!!!" after gone completely mental than if you instead post "FU!!" or even the more descriptive "Fuck You!!!"... it is for the graphic nature of the of the words and the most common usage, in the case of the second.

But since none of this serves any discernible purpose that I can see, may I ask what is it that you find "interesting" about it? Should you be curious or otherwise interested in my sexual orientation, for whatever reason, you can just ask...

Well dear child, your "sanity" is not in question here, you are, obviously, totally deranged.

As for any and all harm done by my posts it is fully, 100% intentional, no surprise nor indignation, don't flatter yourself. Confusion? Not likely: It is painfully obvious with what kind of beasts we are dealing here.

And now, for reasons that you only know, you choose to apply the homophobic statements, that you yourself denounced earlier, to the clearly obsessed with eating dick illiterate individual, ah? Again, obviously not the sharpest knife in the kitchen... Why don't you re-read YOUR OWN POSTS of earlier today? More clear:

homophobic beast #1 .- the guy that was trying to present AltcoinUK as gay.
beast #2, illiterate idiot obsessed with eating dick .- the other one.

Yes they are interchangeable in their condition of full beasts consumed by hatred, but their obsessions seem to be similar only in what refers to male genital organs.

As for Elmer, no matter how hard your deranged mind works, you continue coming up with stupider and stupider conclusions... Now, me as a "victim"? Paraphrasing the great John Wayne, "that'll be the day!"
 

I am just ignoring an illiterate idiot obsessed with eating dick, but whatever serves your deranged purpose, feel 100% free... For now at least. Wow.
