That's another great use case for Factom: blockchain-based voting systems.

FACTOM, BrianDeery
Please publish your particular action plan (step by step and be sure to mark the dates for the months or quarters) to the next in 2016. For investors like me meant what you plan to do next. We invest our money in your project, and need to know what you're doing. Please do not take an example from such as Vitalik Buterin, who with his team Ethereum just "eats and drank away" money that had been invested in his project, and spent money on the maintenance of multiple offices (400 thousand dollars a month) and this led to that course Ethereum fell almost to zero.
Only when then Vitalik Buterin began to give information about what his team is doing specifically to the project. It is necessary to raise your project, you are probably also interested in this, as well as your investors. It's so?
By the way, admiring a photo of your new office, I was immediately pushed to the idea that things can go on the scenario command Ethereum. Where nearly a year spent money only on new offices and fees DEV. A work product was not.
Order articles in various media about your project, to promote it on a different Bitcoin conferences and so on. Engage normal PR. Like the fact it is necessary to tell people about your project and attract investors. It is not visible yet.
Why do not you start by offering your project such as large companies such as Microsoft and so on, instead of waiting until they pay attention to your project?
Why do not you talk to Chinese Auto Giant Wanxiang?, their company is planning to spend their money in other projects, if your project is really promising they would be interested in attraction money in the Factom?
See how immediately raise the rate Ethereum after it drew the attention of the Microsoft company(Azure service) and Chinese Auto Giant Wanxiang.
Negotiate with other exchanges (better with the Chinese) to the factom they put on their sites. One of the little Poloniex exchanges need to involve other exchanges. It is necessary to expand the network of exchange. In order not to mark time. On the Poloniex exchange practically no sell/buy (no volume) have so much time.
Deal only with programming that is not enough.
So we are waiting for you to normal support information. Wink

Thanks for the questions.
We don't usually comment about other projects but Ethereum seems to be doing just fine. Not sure if you have seen their DEVCON1 conference but it was a pretty good event.
However, Factom has only one office, we had to relocate because our team is growing and our first office was getting too tight. No, we don't splash money in things that are not needed and surely we don't "eat and drink away" as you mentioned.
Order articles in various media about your project... Have you been following us or you just recently found out about Factom? ---> http://factom.org/news.
On the other end the team has been participating to most of the Bitcoin and Blockchain related conferences around the world including China, David Johnston and Jack Lu were speakers at the event organized by Wanxiang, you can read about it on our blog: http://blog.factom.org/post/131693596729/factom-factom-inc-on-the-road.

Our team is very actively collaborating with several companies to get Factom adoption, this process takes time and not something we can disclose until there is something agreed by both parties.
The Honduras project is work in progress, it is not fake, we are aware of some trolling going on about that, but we rather focus on continuing our efforts. Working with governments is not like working with a company, there are so many variables and political dependencies which sometime can take months or even years.

We are happy for other exchanges to support Factoids, however it is their choice if they want to integrate our software. We look forward to being supported on other platforms.
We don't use BTCTalk that much, we are more active on our Social Media and Blog + websites.

We have hit our milestone 1 on the first of September and are now working on our second one. You can check our GitHub and see how much works is being put in.

Stay tuned for more news and updates.

FACTOM,
please do in the next update GUI wallet make protection, encryption wallet, because without it would be impossible to for storage by its coins.
It would be nice if you would put the possibility to choose two-factor protection wallet.
In the future, I would like to storage and use the coins via GUI wallet, rather than relying on coins storage on Polo exchange.
At Polo exchanges were security problems last year - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=499580

p.s. Please tell me why so long are transactions from GUI wallet to Polo exchange? Sends three transactions and all of them were 30-40 minutes (3 confirmations).
I understand, for example, why in blockchain Bitcoin transactions are currently long as there is now every day comes a lot of transactions, but why here so long is unclear.
But the transaction from Polo exchange on GUI wallet takes only 2-3 minutes. Why such a big difference in time occurs?
Can you explain?


Transactions take up to 10 minutes on the Factom network it must be that Poloniex may take a little longer or are waiting for a number of confirmations before crediting Factoids to you address.

Second day I have not opened of. site - www.factom.org. Just see blue color and the word "Loading" in center and nothing else. I wonder what's the problem? Maybe just go update site? Sad

It's working fine for me, ...at least now.  

@devs - what is ETA for a GUI?  Cheers.

Not long GUI wallet should be out soon Smiley

I may have missed a previous answer to this question, but can anyone tell me if my 12 word Koinify phrase will still provide access to my Factoids once I've imported my Factoids to a Factom wallet address?  If so, what do I need to do to prevent that from happening?  I don't want those 12 words to provide access to the Factoids in my wallet.

Yes it can be reimported but will generate the same address in a brand new wallet.
If you don't want the passphrase to be used again (once you import it the first time) all you need to do is to move the imported Factoids to a new address.
After you do that even if you use the same passphrase again the balance will be zero.

Hope this helps.

If i buy factoids, where can i save them? Only on the exchange that i used to buy or there is any kind of wallet to save them?

There is a command line wallet for the moment. Instructions at: http://factom.org/howto.

A GUI wallet is in the making.

What I still don't understand is, what will happen to the "used" FCT's?


In the FAQ's they say, they won't get burned:

"No. The Entry Credits are burned. Entry Credits are non transferable. They can only be used to buy entries. But when they DO buy entries, the Factoid in the protocol that was used to buy the Entry Credits is released. The amount of Factoids varies since the price of Entry Credits per Factoid varies.

The Factoid paid out is calculated by dividing the total number of Factoid in the protocol by the number of outstanding Entry Credits.

The number of Factoids in the protocol and the number of outstanding Entry Credits are all computable from the Entry Chain and the Factoid Chain."

http://factom.org/faq


But in the reddit-conversation, Paul Snow says:

"Factom has both an inflation aspect (a fixed payment to the servers per peiod) and a deflation aspect (fees and conversions of factoids to entry credits remove factoids from the supply)."
https://www.reddit.com/r/factom/comments/3ozje2/eli5_what_are_factom_selling_when_they_sell/



Could somebody explain it more concrete what will happen to the FCT's after they were sold for EC's?



They are used, means they don't exist any longer.

If you use our binaries on a Mac and when running ./factomd you get this error:

Code:
13:32:03 2015-10-08 [ERR] BTCD: Unable to start server on [:8108]: 'fe80::1%lo0' is not a valid IP address

It's because of an entry in your /etc/hosts file, usually the last entry as below:

Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost

This happens on Macs that have been upgraded over the years. A fresh build or a new Mac with Yosemite doesn't have that entry.

By removing the last entry factomd works fine.
We are looking at a workaround for the installer but for the time being removing "fe80::1%lo0 localhost" should fix the issue.

If you are not aware what the hosts file is better if you don't touch it, in that case wait for an update to our binaries.

We have released updated installers for Windows and Mac, they are to run the latest version 0.3.3.
An updated Linux installer should be available shortly too.

You can download the latest installers below:

Mac

Windows

Make sure you backup your wallets before running the installers as they may get overwritten.

Our How To guides are available here: http://factom.org/howto.

Our first FCT Factom (factoids) market is now live thanks to Poloniex.

https://poloniex.com/exchange#btc_fct

For more info on how to use your Factoids follow our guides here: http://factom.org/howto.

Pay attention when using the command line, read our guides fully at least once before attempting a transaction.

We are working on an easier to use GUI wallet but it is some time away, if unsure, we recommend holding on until its release.

Side note:
I took the command line for a ride in windows. pretty easy, i let it sync restarted and was able to import my 12 word passphrase from the crowdsale then list my balance correctly.
I also read Michael Perklin's review which has some examples on how things work well written and a breakdown for Milestone 1's 4 requirments that were fufilled therefore releasing 33% of the crowdsale funds to the factom dev team. http://factom.org/downloads/factomreview.pdf

As Michael was confused with makign sure to add fee when transacting his 1.0fct transaction shows 0.920008 where the fee would have been .079992fct is there a fee calculator available or is the fee a static 7.9992% Also I am assuming you dont need a bitcoin client running to use factom at this time.

*edit also the dev guide shows command line as
cd .factom\bin
i had to put in:
cd factom\.factom\bin
to run factom-cli

The fee is given when using the command:

Code:
factom-cli getfee


also when building a transaction if using:

Code:
factom-cli transactions


you will be able to see the fee due on the top side of the output.

Fees are not static

There are new guides at http://factom.org/howto, use these instead
