"Expose their lies" You have issues, take your coin turf war somewhere someone cares. Gemz is what it is, download it and use it or don't, I couldn't care less what you do.

made up story, NEM FANBOY?

There is opportunity to earn quite a lot of gems through the app right now by inviting, but an airdrop disc coming soon where a large number of coins will be dropped into wallets based on use and how many coins you have, i.e. the motivation to have coins already is very high.

Gems has now implemented its store so if you download and collect some gems you can exchange them for Starbucks vouchers and other stuff.

People seem surprised about this. Bitcoin is a stake at the heart of the banking cabal that runs our world. They have done their best to discredit Bitcoin but the fact is they can't really control it which is why its inevitable that they would try to make their own that satisfies their desire to inflate the currency as they wish.

I told people this was coming, sadly many will be duped. Still I don't care, hold onto the real thing, you can't save everyone.

Yep, basically.

I think those Governments also have to take some blame and society that wants something for nothing, i.e. socialism. But this major cause is barely reported at the moment. People should know this is coming to many of our countries in the coming years, maybe sooner, Greece is not unique.


While we are off topic on a general banking discussion I noticed that Citigroup are wanting to make their own coin.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1113207.0


I said before that the fact Citi was sniffing around apps like Getgems and similar technology is cause they want to see how they can survey the situation and maybe pick up on what to rip off, it was never out of altruistic motives.IMHO I hope no one on the Gems team gets head hunted by Citi.  Its good though that the major banks know the future lies here, they aren't stupid.

So only 99% of the population then.....so nothing to worry about?

It's a bit off topic but as Daniel posted about the Greek crisis. I wanted to share about the lie that the MSM is pushing in almost ALL the media we are reading about Greece. Yes Europe and Greece have many social governments have been over spending and a dependent economy BUT this is not how this crisis has come about.


Put simply and quite shockingly. It was the banks, Goldman etc who pushed deriveratives on governments which then blew up, the banks knew they were sub par. Then those same banks were bailed out by the Greek 'lazy' tax payer. And now as the crisis worsens those very same banks are coming after more from the tax payers to pay of the debts they themselves were responsible for and lost. It doesn't get more corrupt than that.

I updated to the latest one a few months ago so I don't think it's that. It kind of embarrassing I have such a shitty phone, it's a long story but I barely use a phone for my lifestyle. Just to add it was working pretty much flawlessly before the more recent update from a couple of weeks ago.


Invalid checksum makes me wonder if my phone is blocking the app somewhere in settings maybe?

I'm wondering if I need to give up on this app working on my Galaxy S2. I'm getting the same invalid checksum notification. I have the app running on my iPad.

If you can't get your money out of the banks then how can you buy anything, let alone Bitcoin?


Sorry but you should of seen this coming years ago. I won't preach now, it's too late however. If you are legit I suggest you get as much money as you can out of the banking system and buy precious metals which no one in Europe can stop you from doing. One benefit of being part of EU is you can move over borders still. That's all you can do, get your money and buy gold or something with intrinsic value like collectables, antiques, classic cars etc. even property in the long term will be safe in years and decades to come. If you hold gold now you could actually have some great opportunities for buying property etc later.

Like I said, no one can help you get your money out of banks, I would research Cyprus to see what might happen.

You're right, that is really simple.

I can't see any major price change in the last 6 months. It's about as stable as you can get.

The fact is this Bitcoin ultimately has a finite shelf life. there is no way that people won't for a myriad of reasons lose small amounts of Bitcoin until eventually we are all using a fraction of a Bitcoin and eventually we won't want to divide down anymore.

Death particularly will wipe out a large percentage of coins. I doubt very few people on here have told someone else their coin addresses, and guess what, many won't know their last day on earth was the day they got into their car to go shopping etc.

There's no vol so any movements mean almost nothing at the moment. Gems price has been pretty flat since the beginning, the majority are holders waiting...

Contact help on Koinify. I know nothing but I expect they can recover your gems but you have to ask them.

This clip is interesting than Daniel posted regarding the growth of Weebly.

I was worried that Gems wasn't flying from the start with Airdrop etc fully operational. But now i think its better to get the app right at this stage and hit the ground running once the app is pristine. Then I think the uptake has the potential to go pretty fast and also get publicity then. The big take away is that behind most overnight success is usually a lot of hard work. In Crypto people want instant results, the reality is a quality tech business takes time.

What's likely to be available in the store? can anyone sell inside it, is it potentially an eBay?

Sorry for the questions, I would like to be a tester but my phone is a crap old Galaxy s2 that won't even update the recent version, yet.

Screenshots?

Seriously? people like you still exist?

People have got it all wrong about Bitcoin. The benefits of Bitcoin are for anyone NOW, you don't need mass uptake to make Bitcoin a success, I can move wealth over borders and protect my wealth from fiat destruction right now, today.

The problem at the moment is a Bitcoin solves a problem that very few people recognise they have. Most people think they can pay instantly with credit card so why the hell do they need to learn a new technology?


I think it will take a massive currency collapse for people to understand Bitcoin and luckily enough I think we will soon get one, the biggest the world has ever seen.

I have tried to kick start the conversion that IF you want the masses to use Bitcoin you need something that looks and smells like a Traditional bank, but has Bitcoin backing it. People want to use dollars and cents and have a nice person on the phone that will help them if they ever fuck up or lose a password etc. They want to use Visa cards etc. I hope someone in the a Bitcoin community with enough money starts one before a major banks does....
