3061  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: █ █ [NUT] NutCoin █ █ Season 01 Episode 03 █ █ on: March 01, 2014, 08:34:05 AM
    Since it appears dev is still with us, I've been giving some thought about having our getting listed on a major exchange as a second tier priority and I may have moved it back up to a top tier priority and here is my thinking. By getting nutcoin listed on a major exchange, that would give us the means to make money, by that I mean to convert nutcoin into Bitcoin, because right here and now... today, we could use Bitcoin to buy things. The next step would then by to all work on getting just one income producing site up and running using nutcoin as the method of payment. We could then use that income to help us afford to work on a second site and so on. We could also then pay people in nutcoin (semi-professionals/professionals) at least something to help us get work done. Coders would top my list. In order to do this, we would need to appoint a couple trusted bookkeepers and a treasurer. The multiple bookkeepers would be used to insure that nobody is doing anything funny with the income and it would be the job of the treasurer to actually insure that payments were made where they need to go, when they need to go. All of this money keeping will need to be done in the open so that any of our group can inspect the books and this could be done by uploading the files onto a cloud based service like Dropbox or some other agreed upon site. We (securely) would have to have verified real names, addresses and phone numbers of these people to insure nobody runs off with the cash. Addresses and phone numbers can be easily verified by sending a letter and getting the same letter returned and telephone numbers can be verified with a phone call.

    I would like to see people starting to come up with ideas for that single get started site. One that was suggested to me yesterday was a nutcoin E-bay type of site, where we don't actually have to put our hands on the inventory, because all that is supplied by the customers and in a case like that, almost anything could be sold on our site... that being said, we need to keep it legal, I don't have any desire to become the next Silk Road, because someone coming along and taking my money (cryptocurrencies) that we work hard to produce and putting me in prison holds zero appeal to me and it's my belief that if we want to make the vision of this coin a reality, everything needs to be top notch and above board.

    We need a date and a time, very soon to appoint a Chairman of the Board and a Second in Command to start with. This could be done via IRC or some other typed chat room to start, but at some point might need to move to something more along the lines of Skype group chat where we can actually talk to one another. It's kind of hard to make sense out of 10 lines of chat all coming at you from different people at the same time. We need to make some form of secure communication a top priority, we can't be conducting our real business on an open message board or open IRC chat room, especially when it comes to exchanging each others personal information. I don't know that any of us has any experience trying to set something like this up, expect mistakes and growing pains.

    I understand that a lot of this will be done in people's spare time at least at the start, but there's no reason why something like this couldn't evolve into an actual working corporation. The object here will be to both promote our coin and to make real money once we get a functioning infrastructure in place, in that order. Growth problems will have to be seen as good problems to have, but we'll have to find ways to deal with them. We will need people's commitment, if you commit to doing a job, we will need you to honor your commitment, the whole team could be depending on your piece of the puzzle, no matter how small a piece it might seem.

    Goals to work on:
  • Promote our coin, including voting to get us on a major exchange.
  • Ideas for an initial income producing site which could fund expansion sites.
  • Who to make our initial Chairman of the Board and Vice-Chairman (woman).
  • Finding a means of communication for the group and setting up an initial meeting via a chat room such as IRC or other instant message service off the official thread.
  • Finding a secure means of communication for the discussion of sensitive information
[/list]

P.S. I am not tied to the idea of me personally having to be the Chairman or even Vice-Chairman for the long term. My goal is to see us do something to actually make this coin roll instead of just sitting here.

Please, we need input from the group on any of these ideas or ideas that you might have too. Ideas spawn other ideas, please don't hesitate to bring them forward.

RR
I agree, getting on a major exchange should be a priority, like you said means people could use it to transfer NUT to BTC and buy real-world things.

As far as promoting the coin goes, currently in contact with a tech-y friend who's getting into mining (can introduce him to NUT now dmx is back, nutcoin.com is up again and we've got another episode on the way) and who can contribute some serious hashrate and generate more votes on allcrypt and via social media to try to pull in more votes. I've also registered with MintPal and will be getting as many votes as I can in (and using social media to try and elicit more votes)

As for secure (encrypted) communication goes what do people think of tox.im? (more info here https://github.com/irungentoo/ProjectTox-Core/blob/master/README.md)

I think maybe a good idea for an initial site to draw more people in could be something like a gaming site offering dice games, roulette, lotto etc. for NUT and possibly simple flash games with rewards in NUT. Might make some income too with which to fund future things.
Or perhaps an eBay style auction site (but obviously with regulations regarding what people could sell re: not becoming SilkRoad lol). But this may be quite a formidable undertaking. Use of getnut.org should be promoted in the mean time as well. As should communication between the OC.net thread and here so as not to divide the community and promote cohesion.

Again these are all just ideas to help the ball roll and any feedback/criticism/more ideas are good and beneficial.

On a personal side-note I should be getting a (proper) dedicated mining rig (instead of my laptops) in the next few weeks, so I'll be able to put much more hash in myself. Also looking into the new nvidia GTX 750ti as it's much lower watt/hash using CUDAminer v AMD cards (and much cheaper to buy). NUT being on a proper exchange (with the value correlated to NutLaw) would also mean I could upgrade my mining hardware using NUTs, which would be awesome. Smiley

I want to see this coin to be a success and will aid in any way I can. Cheesy

Hi guys,

I'm not really fond of the getting this to exchange part right now. With the overflow of new coins it's better to stay under the radar than getting dumped on an exchange. With the low transaction amounts right now, uninformed people will think it's broken and we'll have to explain it a lot and it's likely they'll panic. I'm really for having a structured plan in stages. Each step should create funding for the next step to happen.

I'm pretty experienced at getting peoples attention for coins that have missed the general attention like this one. I have gotten the eKrona noticed again and about 100 people mining for it after a couple of days. Right now it's on Allcoins and the community has grown a lot.

I'll think about an effective marketing strategy to get more attention for this coin. I will invest some money into this, but will only take donations if it turns out to be effective. Smiley More in a week or two.

What if this coin was never intended to be released?
What if it's all just a joke that most people don't get?
What if this is the only coin that takes its name seriously?
What if the devs are just some trolls who like putting their fingers into their butts?

It's a good joke Smiley

Good stuff
3065  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: █ █ [NUT] NutCoin █ █ Season 01 Episode 03 █ █ on: February 28, 2014, 04:57:30 AM
I think guys that if it comes to what we've been talking about, we will need to have a group meeting in a chat room to decide exactly who will lead the ship. There are others players in this game that many of you may not know about and I'm going to try to get everybody together so that we all can be on the same sheet of music, that being said, I want to encourage you guys to visit the Overclock.net site@http://www.overclock.net/t/1457860/nut-nutcoin-fan-club-the-time-of-nut-has-arrived-d

IDK, it's like we're two halves of a whole and I don't know why that is, but if we're all trying to accomplish the same goals, we need to not have two halves, we need to start commingling and communicating with each other so that we don't have two competing groups.

I'm beginning to think along the lines that this might need to be run like a corporation with separate divisions with a division head who all report to whoever is in charge, because it looks to me that there will need to be several related and at least part time collaboration on some issues and others not so much.

One of the first things we need is a way of communication between our members and groups that isn't so public, we want this site and our associated sites to be a place for the pubic to learn about our coin and be drawn to it and not where we air all of our dirty laundry, we need to do that behind the scenes.

dmx, as of right now this is not an attempt to take this coin away from you, the goal of everyone of us is to see nutcoin succeed and we all know that this is your baby, but the simple fact is that we need a hands on leader, by all means we would love for that person to be you. I already can tell from the pieces of the puzzle that are hear all ready, that you believe in doing quality work, but you don't need to try to do it all alone, because it kind of seems like that might be what is taking place, but honestly, there are only so many hours in a day for one person. Please take charge and begin asking people to help you with what you want done and supervise and oversee the work. It seems that we've got several guys now that can do coding work, tell them what you want or need help with. We can all work together to do this.

Guys, please keep voting on both http://www.allcrypt.com/beta/voting.php and on https://www.mintpal.com/voting, I know this isn't what our top priority might be, but I don't think getting on an exchange would automatically hurt us either. It could bring some new blood into the group and who knows what we might find mixed into the group that might help us.

I am not all tied into the idea of me personally taking over the reins of this coin if it should come to that, if we should happen across an experienced dev who would be willing to take it on, that might be a better choice, but if I or who ever ends up taking over if need be, they're going to need ideas and flexibility on all of our parts. Try not to get yourselves into a my way or the highway mindset, because I can virtually assure you that not all of anybody's ideas will be accepted.

I hope I've given you all a lot of things to think over. This coin needs hard work and dedication on all of our parts, I'm not going to ask you for your oath or dedication pledge, but every one of us can tell somebody about nutcoin in the next day whether it be on Facebook or some other social media outlet, computer geek site or wherever. Do you know how many times I have just spammed "Nutcoin is Coming!" into comment lines of various online computer magazine articles or cryptocurrency blogs? Don't forget friends either. Not everybody you tell needs to be a miner, believe it or not, there are people out there who have virtually no idea what a cryptocurrency, including Bitcoin is. Please be willing to explain in a simple way to the uninitiated.

Lots of this we can do right now and on our own.

I do appreciate the informal nomination, but we'll see where that goes as we move forward. I'd still LOVE FOR dmx to step up to the task be the man, or "D" if you don't want to be the man, but more a senior adviser/coder not in charge of giving the day to day orders, we could probably work around that too. Please just tell us what you want to do or where you want to fit into the picture and we will help you to be that person. It's also very encouraging to see the main http://www.nutcoin.com/ site back up again. Thank you.

That's what I've got to say about it all for now guys, think seriously about these ideas and how much time you personally can invest into this project, because whoever is in charge is going to need to be able to do some accurate planning.

I agree fully that we need a team for this and it would be best to keep dmx involved. We need to help this coin to live through the market getting overcrowded with coins for now. I believe the only way to do this is by having actual working businesses support it, so people have a reason to use this coin. Attached to this you would need some marketing to make people aware of this. I think it would make sense to have a smallscale IPO for an organization that can start such a business itself. The shareholders will receive a part of the profits. I think I would be willing to spend something like 0.1 to 0.3 BTC on something like that.

Frycoin is really under valued, i think the developer should wake up from his slumber and see how we can take the coin to the next level.
The dev should not SHUT UP now.

We are making frycoin.org website, its being developed. We are building an android wallet. We are accepting more games/services as we go. I'm waiting to hear back from coinmarketcap and others as well.

This coin is very much alive.

Ymer, if you don't like it, stop whining in this thread and leave, k thanks.

Maybe you should update the main thread a bit. At the moment the block reward is only 37.50 and the difficulty is extremely low 0.038. The halving of this coin is too rapid I think, making the mining very unprofitable right now, with the price at 11 Satoshi. For 1 MH/s you get about 20,000 coins, or 0.0022 BTC. With rent of 1 Mh/s of around 0.015, this is not very interesting to mine. It will become more interesting if the value of the coin itself would rise again, so I hope this site will contribute. Maybe we should make memes as well that show the coin.

Something like:

site is still down, we're on it.

Dude, we need more than just this, we need some communication between you/your group and us, the miners. If you're too busy to do it yourself, I suppose I could understand that, then appoint somebody close to you to do it for you... I don't care if it's your wife. We need a steady diet of meat and potatoes, because we start getting hungry pretty quick out here. We just cannot sustain interest when we have no direction to focus our energies on. We need that from you.

Change, spare some change?

confirmed: the "whale" has surfaced.  (Needs air I suppose.)

Important: A note to anyone considering purchasing from the whale.  The whale's funds will only be available after the launch.   We will not be doing the bookwork (nor genesis block changes) for whale's reselling.  Also, we cannot be responsible for his actions (ie. whether he turns out to be honest or not).  We are not saying he is dishonest--- we don't know.  As always, proceed with caution!


keccak512 can I ask that you look into allowing a resale of 10 BTC of my share?

Current IPO pot is at 57.40086441 BTC. If you allow me to resell, this means that the next 10 BTC added, will still leave the pot at the same value.

This will be beneficial to ALL investors involved. Not allowing me to do this, will look greedy on your part, IMO. Please advice.

+1 anyone?

Why not just refund the 10 BTC?

The IPO total value is already almost 50 BTC. I would like to sell some of my IPO stake to reduce my risk. I believe it is still profitable up to a 75 BTC IPO Pool, and don't wish to see it increase by much more than 50 BTC.

I have a 20 BTC stake, and would like to sell off 10 BTC.

If you're interested to buy a stake from me, PM me for details. No additional charges.

So you are the mystery whale. Do you have any proof of that? Huh

ask dev for proof

confirmed: the "whale" has surfaced.  (Needs air I suppose.)
Ok PM me your Adress BTC
