It seems GetGems is successfully achieving the concept of binding simplicity, recognition and incentive with each other in an app and is awarded as the most visionary social media solution by Citi. Eventually the app will have its own ecosystem with the Gems used inside the app having a real world purpose and real value. It will be build around attention economy where users will be able to pay each other for their attention through various advertisement designs, get rewarded in different ways, spend it in different ways, make BTC/Gems transactions and communicate within the app. This all will be done as simple as possible for everyone to understand and one of the main reasons i follow the project. An interview from yesterday with Daniel Peled explaining GetGems.  |

If it's a reputable company i don't mind off-chain, see Coinbase. The good thing is with bitcoin people are free to choose.

There is no more zeros needed, you can already divide it into 100M individual units which are Satoshis. If the price goes up people can use Satoshis (which already is happening btw), as of now for one Satoshi to be worth $2.40, 1 Bitcoin needs to be worth $244.000.000,00.
Fixed that for you. You seem to be from a country that uses a period for digit grouping instead of a comma? Well i don't think people are going to say satoshi, give me 1 satoshi, its a stupid name for money with all respect for bitcoins creator. Bits is much more suitable, i'm from europe and we use comma but since the majority here is from us/uk (i think) i used period. |

Isn't it possible for the gov to force the openbazaar devs to shut it down if they wanted to?

We are working on closing the loop, invite friends —> earn gems —> spend gems.
This is what other Cryptos are dreaming of, but i haven't seen one succeeding. GG is the first that is on its way to become the first rightful holder of achieving this. |

Are you talking about bitcoin? Which phone and OS do you have? I have my btc on GetGems app, it gives you a passphrase. Even if you set your phone to factory setting, or you phone doesn't work anymore you can retrieve your btc with this passphrase on another device or at a web wallet like hivewallet or multibit. Ofcourse large amounts should be stored offline, but smaller amounts GG app is perfect. You can also access you getgems account through multiple sessions across all your devices, like on your tablet and phone.
Another thing is you can use remote desktop connection with your phone. Also don't know if electrum or armory offer apps for this kind of purpose, if someone knows would be handy indeed.

Maybe start off with GEMZ swag? In addition to keeping any bloat manageable, it would be the perfect sandbox-in-the-wild to iron out any bugs.
What's Gemz swag? "swag" is a colloquialism: it means branded merchandise like T-shirts, etc. Ah ok  for swag imo the app should get some popularity first for people to buy the branded products. |

+1 if the team can pull it off why not?
I would like to hear something about the vision for the shop as it's not really been mentioned from the beginning. Are we talking selling Gems Tshirts/ stickers etc or a fully inbuilt commerce eBay site....or somewhere in the middle?
Having something to buy that's tangible to many average users is more important than we think. It's was the first question I was asked recently when describing the app.

Probably something in the middle, you wouldn't want a website for the shop, it all should be in the app where everything is within reach when using the app. |

I just watched your interview with CounterParty here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrMoRcXDTWYYou mentioned the possibility of buying and selling bitcoin within the app, but also having a shop within the app. Sorry to be frank, but the latter idea sounds really horrible, it could very easily bloat the app unnecessarily and remove focus. Buying GEMZ and BTC would be more than enough, and I would hope you'd focus on the 'attention economy' features long before trying anything like that. You say buying Gems and BTC is more than enough but users must have incentives to buy Gems and since the app is focused on the average person you won't find many who are gonna buy Gems to hold, they would want to spend and thats the dream of every Crypto and GG gives them different options in spending the Gems they earn or buy. Buying Gems for ads and to shop in a simple to use app gives more demand than only buying Gems for ads, apart from that you attract a different audience aswell. Maybe some aren't very interested in buying ads but interested in buying gift cards or other purchases with Gems easily from the app. The attention economy is THE feature of the app, but that shouldn't stop the team to introduce more innovative features with a real world purpose (which you don't really find in other alts). Maybe the team can highlight the attention economy button if you will more in the app to make statement that this is the top feature of the app, but a simple to use shop in a simple to use app is a cool extra. I can imagine a Thread with the title, "So you like Telegram? Now you are able to shop and send money in the app, made possible by GetGems" |
