1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Crypto as a currency for supporting your local community? on: April 10, 2018, 11:57:37 AM
I have recently been thinking about currencies like Brixton Pound or Bristol Pound. Here in Englad they seem to be more and more popular as the main idea behind them is to support local businesses and production. Do you guys think that would work with crypto?

Hi there,

I am quite new to this forum and crypto world. I have so far invested a smaller amount of money but would like to go bit further. My big concern however is the security. After watching several videos on youtube of guys telling how their lost their money I am a bit petrified. I am not a geek so I am not sure what to do in order to protect my funds.

Are you guys saying Trezor is the best?

I'm certainly not qualified to say which is the best. I prefer using the Trezor. It seems a lot more user friendly to me. Others may disagree. Much may depend on which coins you want to store. Ledger currently stores plenty more.

Thanks gentlemand,

I have just found this, which seems a brilliant idea and good solution:

but this is in the ico stage now, so will have to wait for the product Sad


That looks like a terrible hardware wallet that is only in concept stage with many design flaws thought up only to find a bullshit reason to have an "ICO" and make money. I would not trust a cent with a "hardware wallet" that can connect to the internet and has a built-in GPS.
Agree. I read a little bit in that thread. I see how LoyceV and DarkStar_ point the flaws. I stopped reading since I think it is clear enough. Glad that we have these guys in the forum.

I also think that this is an ICO that wishes to gather a lot of money, launch it in an exchange. Until they dried it up, they will leave the project behind or if they really are serious then they are not knowledgeable enough to do this.

@CryptoKr You better rethink it, carefully.

Thanks gentlemand again. The guys you have mentioned just attacked me in the other topic, so it is good to know that not everyone is like them. I will get Trezor for now and hope that something better will show up on the market soon.

Shame you are getting such a hard time from guys that are just picking on you. I had a look at your project and I think the idea is brilliant. I am new to cryptocurrencies but concerned about money that I have already invested in some. I would like to buy some more coins but I am not a geek and I am not sure how to store them securely.
If you're indeed new to cryptocurrencies, and are "not a geek", then let the people with veteran experience who are geeks ask the hard questions.

I believe we have a good alternative to national currencies. I hate the fact that living in 3 countries force me to pay so much commission in currency exchange and it is always a hassle to convert money back and forth between countries.

I will be definitively buying your product when it is available and I am seriously considering investing.

Well done!
You Just joined yesterday, claimed to be new to cryptocurrencies and are blatantly supporting a shady project.
Yes, you are definitely NOT a sockpuppet account.

Well, your sort of answer to me is definitely not something I was expecting here. I have done my research outside this forum and thought coming over here is a good idea, but now I see the standards. Need to find a more welcoming place I guess.
