So what's the purpose of the MOON?
Just trading?
Just trading?
People often ask about the purpose of coin. People want to see one simple idea behind any coin.
For example, ETH - smart contracts, ETC - classic ETH, XMR or DASH - privacy,
LTC - silver to BTC, STEEM - rewards for posting, DOGE - for fun, XP - for online gamers etc.
The problem with Mooncoin, it's very decentralised and it has several projects in several directions,
MoonWord, SmartLikes (in progress), MoonEdu (promised by Evangelo, we all are still waiting for it, BTW, some update from Evangelo would be great).
Thus, people look at MOON and don't see one simple idea behind it. They don't understand what is so special about MOON. Investors need one simple idea to understand the project better.
Maybe the idea could be: a coin for scientific and social progress. MoonWord could be adjusted for free using in science and in social projects.
Currently a lot of people and even governments want to use blockchain, but just don't know where to start. To launch their own coin? Without miners, it will not be truly decentralised.
But it's very difficult to create a big network of miners and nodes from scratch. Why not using established and well tested one instead?
What do you think of it?
Mooncoin as a coin of scientific and social progress? Not for making a quick buck.
Mooncoin has a perfect name to match this idea.
Apollo Moon programs were stopped in the 20th century. Bright romantic ideas of space exploration were forgotten (quite small developments in this sphere).
Now people want mostly new gadgets (look at Apple's market cap) and make a quick buck somehow. That looks insane for people who lived 30-50 years ago.
No one can guarantee that this situation will not be changed in the future. Then, even if you want to make a quick buck now, you could be the first who understood that another world was upcoming,
the world of science (blockchain is only one important part of progress), the world of social progress, of another mentality, less boring, less agressive, more focused on real life, on really interesting things, not 2d (money+instincts), instead of that 3d, many 'd'.
Hello,
Recently a similar situation occurred for HTMLCOIN.
Here is a quote of what their CEO posted on FB page. I don't know if its against the rule to post info on other coins. But I think this is the same route Mooncoin should go, regarding those 62B mooncoin. So, I am posting it here. I remember one member said he knows Vassilis personaly, maybe he can forward this message to him if he is no longer visiting or posting on Bitcointalk forum for legal reasons. As the HTMLCOIN team has legal representatives and they must have gone this route after getting their feedback. Vassilis can also get in touch with HTMLCOIN team to get more legal info. Forward this to him if possible, I'll PM the same message to him.
"Dear Htmlcoin Community,
RE: The Htmlcoin Community: Steadfast & Resilient.
As you all know, shortly after HTMLCOIN swapped from HTML5 to the new HTML blockchain, CoinGather, one of the largest exchanges that supported HTMLCOIN, disappeared from the Internet. Despite repeated attempts at contact by the Foundation and the many users who had coins stored on that exchange, to my knowledge, no one has been successful in reaching the owner of CoinGather. The Foundation has been closely monitoring the address to which it swapped approximately 13.98 billion HTML; to date, no coins have left that address.
Shortly after CoinGather went offline, we were made aware of user reports to the FBI of a potential exit scam. In light of this, we cannot discuss the matter except to inform the Community that, to prevent these coins from entering circulation, at block height 106,000, the HTMLCOIN blockchain was hard forked to freeze the almost 14 billion coins in that address and to regenerate them in a new address.
These coins belong to their rightful owners, and will only be released on direction from the authorities or final resolution on the CoinGather matter. NO NEW COINS were added to circulation or supply, as the original coins are no longer valid for transactions on the blockchain, the old coins in Coingather's wallet are lack and cannot be spent.
Please direct any questions you may have to dev@htmlcoin.team.
PS: More Exchange services to come.
All the best,
Amando R. Boncales, BA, MSEd, MA, PhDc.
Chief Executive Officer
The Htmlcoin Foundation"
Good luck to everyone.
