If you sold all the coins at this very moment, how would you get 37 tons of gold? I can imagine getting small amounts of gold, but 37 tons?

In the event that all coins are sold how will you get 37 tons of gold?

Hello,
Europex.eu needs spanish people to translate the website in spanish.
Maybe this thread has some interested people in having europex in spanish ? I think it could improve the penetration of this coin over the spanish speakers.
If you're interested, please message me.
Thank you for reading.
(If you don't approve this kind of message, you can delete it, and sorry for convenience.)

What about catalan people to write in catalan?
Do you even know what Catalonia is and which is the current socio-politic environment? I don't think so... you just come here to try to get free contributors for your business oriented web page.

I never told it won't be paid.

Found two translators (paid, precision for p4u), one is particularly fast.
Catalan version is online. Hope it will help your coin.
Spanish in progress...

https://www.europex.eu/

If you have any corrections to claim, please message me.

The Spanish Cryptocurrency > They didn't pre-mine (PesataCoin) - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=403378.0

Basically . the premine and free distribution to a specific population is what makes the "national coin".
What will make the peseta coin be used if the people don't have it?


How did Bitcoin spread? organically via its users. Spaincoin is just a “a classic pump-and-dump scam”

It is hard enough distributing the coins to people who have no idea about this and have to install a wallet, so imagine if you told them to start mining...

i like this coin, it stands for something with the whole Catalonia/Spain deal.
blockexplorer and some more news/activity would be nice though.
The interview took pretty long,  so some pointers on important stuff for the english speaking people here would be great. (If the english on your team isn't sufficient, maybe get someone with english language skills on board as a "spokesman")

I'm listening to it right now, I'll translate the most important things they say.

4:30 They mention Bitcoin, auroracoin, etc and then Cataloniacoin.

5:50 They start asking about Cataloniacoin.cat and the coin. He says they are studying a system for the distribution. He explains the pre-mine and then what ''mining'' is because those guys of the radio have no clue about cryptocurrencies xD

10  They ask what they can do with those coins. Then he mentions exchanges. The radio guy says this kind of coins seem to be more orientated to especulation rather than normal day stuff like buying a beer xDD

11. They still don't understand how you can make money ''out of nowhere''

15. They compare Cataloniacoin with other similar coins like auroracoin.

16. They talk about the future, about how it might become famous and start being used in different stores and such.

20. Starts explaining how you anyone can create their own coin. 

22 Explains the distribution of the coins.

23 Is it legal? Iceland parliament said it isn't legal but that they couldn't stop it.   He answers: it isn't legal but it isn't illegal either.

24 The market decides which coins survive and which doesn't.

25 Goverments are worried because they can't tax it.

26 We will hear a lot about all this cryptcurrency thing in the future. Dev's name is Pol.

From the technical point of view, there are many inconsistencies in the explanations, but I might be because of the nerves. Experience is important here, next time it will go better.

However there are two points which I don't like at all:

IMO the developer is accepting during all the talk that the only aim of CataloniaCoin is the speculation.
In any moment he said the aim of it is to be used for exchange goods and services as part of the Catalonia social economy.
Sorry but I don't share at all this idea. If this is the real purpose of the coin there is no real future for it.
And even if you don't think that, this is what anyone not familiar with the cryptos will understand after listening this podcast.

When the interviewer ask him about how are they gonna know someone is Catalan or not to spread the premined coins.
They said it was possible to block by IP! So only IPs from Catalonia will have access to this "web system" to claim the money.
Afterwards he said, people might use proxies to claim coins from the outside (obvious!).
But then the conclusion is that they do not have any idea about how to restrict this and how to spread the coins among the Catalan people.
That is a very very important part of this kind of coins and I think it must be clear from the beginning (justify it by a magic system not implemented yet, is not serious) .

Look other country proposals which, in my opinion, are solid and serious:
- AuroraCoin: The country with higher digital inclusion in the world. They have public access to the citizens census.
- Muniti: They are gonna send by standard post a letter with the wallet (so one share per family/house)

However, let's wait for the translation, maybe I understood in the wrong way.

You're right about how to block non-catalan people from claiming the coins, but what they said about speculation is that they coin, at this moment, can only be used to speculate in exchanges, BUT if it gets famous around here then it would be used to buy goods/services just like normal currency.

We already have Spaincoin, so why do we need this coin?

Catalonia might become an independent country soon.

Biggest problem of the airdrop is the lower the price is, the fewer people will bother claiming.

He already said if 100 SPA are not worth claiming due to the low price he will increase the amount. I will claim for my family and friends and see if they agree to leave all the coins to me so I can afford my drivers license Cheesy That'd be epic.

And from where will those coins come? Out of thin air?

More coins to less people.

AHH so how old are you again lol or worse of what is the cost of a driver license where you are at i am in the USA and its like $30 for a 4 year license or ID ......btw just messing with you on the age we all know alot of people in crypto like uner 18 and its all cool after all it it the future


I'm 19, and a driver's license can easily cost 500$ or more. But my parents had to pay for college and everything and I don't want them to spend even more money on me, that's why I said it'd be epic If I could get the money from the coins and pay for it myself.

WOW $500 thats crazy

Not really. With that money you pay for the theory classes + theory test + driving lessons + driving test + license (if you passed the tests). That's about 2 months.


500 for a drivers licence?? man that's cheap, In France they pay at least a 1.000/1.200 and in Holland it's even more!

WTF man screw that i just went to the DMW here in the USA paid $40 took my written test, eye test, and hearing test then went out for a 30 minute drive with examiner and that was it. Sure some people go to driving classes but i did not 14 years later driving i still have clean driving record

I already know how to drive because I've been driving a lot with my father (though it is completely illegal  Grin), but still you have to take some classes by law.

We should wait until the airdrop happens and see what happens after that. If he keeps his word and the coins are distributed using the ID card and some establishments start to accept it, then nothing stops the coins from reaching the moon (or the atmosphere at least  Roll Eyes )

If you don't have at least 10K spa, it's not worth selling at these prices even if you are at a big loss.
I would take a chance and wait.

I don't have that much coins but I got some, I bought them yesterday so I could sell and leave with barely the same BTC I had yesterday, but I'm not, I believe in the future of the coin.

But I think this coin needs more SPANISH press coverage. There are 10 links in the OP, 9 in english, 1 in spanish. Maybe they should start contacting small newspapers around here and then the bigger ones. I will do it myself once I'm done with my exams in college and I have some time for it.
