Nice,

Yeah, already that's more organized than I had it in my head. So, let's say we figured we could really help the world hardcore if we raised say 1 Trillion Dollars (insert Dr. Evil meme here). Could be less of course.

If we were shooting for the tokens to be worth $1 as they are redeemed for projects and we issued 1T tokens, the goal is to have at least 1T in the fund at the time it's cashed out.

It could be done a couple ways:
1.) Just set it as a smart contract that doesn't unlock until the fund is full of a large percentage of the outstanding token supply -- forcing the fund to be sold, publicized and hyped.
2.) Or, somehow set it so that in your vote you can trigger a sale event along with the vote somehow.
3.) Or, just set it to unlock at a set future date upon which the funds just automatically go towards the selected charities / projects after the fund is closed. This could end up being a new way of democratically voting for projects in a use case of replacing government for allocating "public" funds, which of course could be voluntarily contributed.

This sounds like a possible job for BTS and Graphene especially in light of what's going down now with ETH crapping out on ICOs. Until something better is available or BTC is effectively forked... or my $LDOGE stash appreciates substantially... we're going to need some sort of "distraction" if you will... to keep the press spin on Crypto positive.

I like the idea of the world bailout because it gets the whole world involved... think of India now hyping on BTC and badly needing a bailout. Hey India, it's coming!

I know 1 Trillion sounds like too much probably it is. But consider that if we start putting funds in at a approx. $3k BTC and it goes to even $12k by 2020 or 2022. We can unlock the fund with it having appreciated between 1% and 500% (I think my math sucks) depending on whether most of the funds come in early or late. So, let's say it was an average appreciation of 250% and my math was right. That would be us only needing to raise 400 billion. Right now, all of crypto's market cap is 112 B or so. I think it is at least conceivable that over the time between now and 2020 or 2022, we could lock up potentially nearly 400B in crypto if it appreciates enough.

Or just shoot for a smaller # like much smaller. 1 billion dollars is a good start but we could knock that out by Christmas.

Maybe that's the move. We just try to raise 1 Billion in Crypto by Xmas and buy a bunch of poor families turkeys, hams and toys. Hmmmm...... 

Hey guise  

I'm coming to bitcointalk community to see if there is any support for my idea.

I think it would be beneficial for Bitcoin / cryptocurrency writ large and the entire world to do a "Crypto World Bailout" -- allow me to explain how I conceive this to play out, with the necessary support.

• Devs coordinate to create a locked multi-wallet powered by a smart contract to not open to a certain future date, let's say 2/2/2022 for obvious reasons (marketing) but could be some other future date.
• Crypto community publicizes the locked charity fund, which I like to call Crypto World Bailout.
• Community members make small, periodic contributions to this fund over time.
• While funds grow, the community is voting using some mechanism (suggestions welcomed) as to the eventual allocation of fund assets.

I'm hoping with the continued growth in the overall value of the crypto assets writ large, and with the deflationary effect this fund would have on the overall crypto economy -- if successful.... and with the publicity something of this magnitude would bring in --- I'd have to say it could be a great marketing concept for crypto as well as a great use case, morally for the world.

I know this is just an idea but I can do whatever is in my power to help get it off the ground. Specifically, I have marketing, copywriting, sales, Biz Dev and basic HTML / CSS web dev skills.

Please let me know if this is coherent and if anyone knows how we might go about getting a team together to put this into place. I have this image in my head of this fund being the thing that eventually stops hunger, homelessness and potentially ends central authorities writ large.  

I just grabbed 3k more BITB on Bittrex @ 210 sat and lumped another 5k order on the 200 sat wall. Let's build that resistance level!

About to do the same, my dude, waiting on the wallet to catch up now. $LDOGE bull run in effect!

It's disabled for withdrawal only. That's a feature of the ICO. The wallets haven't been officially released so there's nowhere to send the coins to yet. You can still buy and sell NEOS but you can't take them off the exchange yet, that's all the "disabled" represents.

I have been in discussion with a few coins but as of yet I've only made one website for a BTC Broker service (still end stages of dev) and provided marketing work for a project called CoinProz as a consultant. I'm experienced in marketing though. I'd love to assist however possible with NEOS, if Syn or TwoTurtles want to HMU I'm down to chat and see if any of my ideas can help.

Not all newbies are crazed FUDers. I registered Nov 1, 2013 and I just have been lurking or traveling many BTC sites as opposed to rooting in the most mainstream one. I posted earlier here requesting the early trading on trex but I still maintain that it is good for the coin but I questioned it for a while. Getting the weak hands out is good and I feel as dev goes on with CLD, NEOS and CLSTR (maybe not CLSTR) we will see the community get behind these ICO coins. That being said 10000 sat seems like an arbitrary starting off point and it has been pointed out that better or similar coins exists similar to these exist on the market for much lower costs. I'm not saying NEOS should be at any particular price but I do feel it should go higher. I think it will be interesting to see an ICO launching at a different price though at some point like 300 sat or 4000 sat or maybe 200000 sat if the rest of it made sense.

My recommendations:

1. Create lower and more various options for donating (i.e.. levels) on your crowd funding page.
2. Definitely do the video / website ASAP to get people to sense you are real.
3. Getting a flagship sponsor like one of the gambling sites as another member suggested. They can float you before you go.
4. Make the rewards on the crowd funding site something more guaranteed and tangible. Ie. for .05 you get a t-shirt or for .03 you get a sticker for .10 you get put on our thank you page on our website, etc.
5. Brand it. Put your face on it and give it a name, "Jenny's Super Fantastic BTC Voyage" or "Tim's Wild BTC Adventure" or something less corny.

Site won't load for me  Also, not to bash the idea at all because I like it and would register, but the design of the landing page is an out-of the box bootstrap framework that is a free open-source download and the team didn't bother to change any icons or the background image. Just pointing out that I'm seeing evidence of eager minds wanting to help but rushing into product dev without taking the time to establish a brand. I'm sure I'm not the only dev that's going to hit that page and realize the 20 minutes it took to put the page up.

Everything the OP described sounds awesome but if there's no talented dev on the project then this landing page could be a sign of either an under skilled team or a team needing a lead dev. Again, sorry if the overall message sounds negative but I'm contributing what I'm aware of from what I see here as a web dev / marketing guy. I do wish the PromoteCrypto guys luck. I hope to be able to try the site once it's ready

Not for nothing but 15000 satoshi is about ten cents. Who here is really about to go to work clicking on 150 ads for ten cents? The guy getting the ad revenue is getting $2 on your ten cents worth of clicks. Don't you have better uses of your time? Maybe my math is bad. Someone help me out.

I like the idea for a BTC based eBay on face value. As a BTC user and enthusiast, I foresee your problem being in variety which is what people will undoubtedly complain about especially when you are held in the light of eBay as a competitor. I'm a marketing guy and I've lurked a lot on BF but until a prospective client said I didn't have enough posts on BF to help his project, I didn't realize how valuable my voice is. Sort of brag side rant, but just explaining my low post number and old account.

Any mechanism you can embed in the site that incentivizes adoption or listing items would help your site scale and add users fast. For example, instead of charging fees for listing an item, make it either a fee or an amount of marketing work. For example, many sites give out affiliate offers for all of their users. LocalBitcoins is a great example. Their problem is that the reward for sharing the link is too low. If you gave users one free item listed for each person that clicks their link (up to the first 10 maybe) and then say 10 free items listed for each 1 successful referral. Then there can be an option to pay to list an item. I would recommend .001 BTC or so (something so nominal that it's just a place holder for a slightly larger fee as you need to scale). By setting the cost of listing so low, people won't feel disinclined to list. Not having enough listed items and by extension not having enough users period will make it extremely hard for a budding marketplace site to thrive and grow.

For someone to shop a store that deals entirely in second-hand goods, that store has to have variety and bulk supply.

Another point and I'll take a breather: Having amazing on-site SEO is going to help you get indexed and thereby bring in more users.

TL:DR- Heavily incentivize sharing & listing.

I appreciate all of the support for the opening up trading position. I've been a hardcore lurker on BF because I don't want to put my foot in my mouth but I am a econ hobbyist and so I have a feel for what works in fluid unobstructed markets such as crypto. We shall see. I'm certainly not selling too much a percentage of my investment any time soon but opening it up lets people who are willing to pay more get some more coins while returning a reward to the early adopters.

Big 10 BTC buy right before the sell-out... then it went quiet...

My .02 on trading after IPO is that it is positive for a number of reasons. First, as other's have mentioned, this is a coin that many have just found out about. By holding off even for a few days, will not prevent the eventual spike in pricing. By waiting the price pressure will be set up for more dramatic swings with those who feel their money is "tied up" dumping quickly while those who didn't expect the sell out to be so fast will rush in. Which way it goes and how fast remains to be seen but by allowing trading right away you allow natural market forces to establish a price for the coin based on demand, awareness and supply. This is not in anyway detrimental to a product to have the value of that product quantified in the market. Price mechanisms will take effect regardless but by delaying, you're setting up for more swings and less price stability. Opening up early allows greater disbursement and decentralization of ICO coins prior to wallet release. Well I've made my case.

Id be trying it but im on mac and my VM hangs this beast. Maybe tomorrow I'll close some tabs. It sounds like a great tool.
