What's the new innovation or feature that differs it from other coins, or is it just another masked coin-gen/scrypt clone?

Updates and input will be located in this thread.

q. What is your business Plan
q. Wat is your marketing Plan
q. What are your goals for the first through fourth quarter of this year
q. State a new innovation, feature or unique use that differs from other coins
Please post any questions you would feel to be important before investing in a new coin project, and I will add them to the list.

Just added new FAQ's

roslinpl,  Hello.  I never received your PM. Please resend.  Thank you sir!

Well hello Smiley

I never send you any PM maybe that is why you did not get it Smiley

Anyway, I just think you need to be more precise, and a sponsor means someone must be 90% sure that he will not put his money into titanic Smiley or mtgox.

SO just you must sit and think in details about how you see it. Then start it again.


good luck!

Thank you.  I just added new FAQ's that I have been receiving.  Hopefully this helps you.

Each stakeholder will have a publicly viewable signed contract regarding specific sponsorship use.

Smiley a sponsor? Smiley

this word means - you want  to develop. You do not have a money. You have some skills but not enough to make it by your own.

Chances of founding a sponsor - 50% - it will happen or it will not Smiley

Put more details here, because like that you wont find anyone till xmass.

You are absolutely correct.  If you were incorrect, I would not have created a post like I did.  Please let me know what details you are looking for so that I find people before xmas Smiley  And thank you for your post!

Answer to FAQ's sent via PM

Q. Do you have any progress in creating a website?
A. There has been progress creating a website.  Developing websites from the round up is what I have done for a living, so that helps out a lot.  I am fortunate to have that as one of my skills.   I am able to speak and edit programming, but I personally cannot sit and create a new program from scratch.  That is not my calling in life.  There are others much smarter than me in regards to custom programming.

Do you have any programmers?
A. We have a local programmer, and also sub out work to different programmers (overseas) when needed for a particular skill or task.  This project has been discussed in length and he is aware and ready to take on the task.  He realizes there is also an option to use programmers from the crypto community as well.  The local programmer can act as a helper, project lead or both.

Q. Have you sacrificed any personal funds or time yet?
A. Between the exchange and the coins I myself have spent 4 months researching this project and creating a new alt coin(s) (that are actually useful), including US law, speaking to multiple lawyers, drafted a business plan, marketing plan etc.  I have not mentioned the coin details on this on the board yet, but the new coin will be revolutionary without exaggeration.  I believe the new coin will garner a lot of press. (Yes we all say that, but I am willing to stick my nose out there and say that you will find that the introduction will be different and exciting more than anything else on the market AND will actually be a USEFULL coin.)

We do have a domain name for both the business (coin) and exchange.   
We have a 4 letter .com domain for the exchange.

Q. Will I get any stake in your business for my funding?
A. Sponsors do have perks.  A sponsor will receive a number of coins related to the exchange based on membership level.   These limited number of coins will be available to members only, 100%, unless a vote says otherwise.  As you know they will have $0 value, and are not legal tender.  Due to US SEC laws we cannot specifically offer shares in a business without registering with the SEC.  I assure you this literally costs millions of dollars to do, so registration is unattainable at this point.  We are looking at SEC exemptions, but at this time we do not have one.

12  Bitcoin / Project Development / Sponsor New Alt Currency Exchange on: March 15, 2014, 11:07:02 PM
Looking for sponsors to help create a new cryptocurrency exchange.  I am an entrepreneur and my background is in online marketing and website design.  Over 15 years as a business owner.  Was VP of one of the largest internet service providers in the Southeast, ESPER Systems/ XxPansion Networks., with thousands of customers, until I sold my stock in the company.  http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-142494425.html.  I am located in Tennessee, USA.

I realize I have 0 trust within bitcointalk please message me if you are interested in helping.
For more detailed information or my phone number to reach me directly, please PM me.  I will answer any questions that you may have.

Costs will be for development, redundant servers, real time security, compliance, legal,  etc.  Each disbursement of sponsorship money will be recorded and the ledger details will be sent to every sponsor.

An in house coin is also being created and will benefit all sponsors.  SEC/federal/state rules will be followed.  For current legal reasons the coin is valued at 0 and will not be legal tender.  And in full disclosure we are not offering any promised return or cash value of any sponsorships.

How will a sponsorship benefit you?  You will be supporting a new exchange, you will have membership voting rights regarding the exchange, coin rights etc., discounted or free fees - all based on your sponsorship level and all detailed in a legally signed contract if you are ok with not being anonymous.  Tn, USA laws will apply.

Since this involves real BTC, please do not hesitate to contact me ASAP so that I can prove who I am, or answer any and all questions you may have via phone or email.  Early BTC Sponsorships will receive additional privileges and can be sent to 14KzGxybyKQ4i6ftZ1Jzpdc3xGsko3tvJa
The suggested early sponsorship is 0.05 BTC for bronze level, 0.15 BTC Silver Level, .40 BTC Gold Level 1.0BTC  Platinum Lifetime Level.

Whilst we are limiting people places to find information on a whole sub section of the next generation currencies, could we also start campaigns (1) to limit free speech (2) to start hunting whales again!  (3) to Stop being dicks (4) raise funds for me, to help with my sarcasism


If you dont like reading something, then dont type in the address, click on the link, and read it, just stay in the bitcoin section. its fairly simple really.

17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PREMINE - What's happening on: February 27, 2014, 03:12:42 PM
I don't mind an upfront premine as long as the release is fair for everyone. It's better than stating 0% premine and then instamining all the low diff blocks by withholding the wallet or not having any pools setup where everyone can start mining at the same time. There's more than one way to skin a cat Wink

Yes this basically what is happening now, devs say no premine then have broken wallet links and no pools working for many hours giving them the premine.

Small premines are ok if done in a honorable way problem is too many greedy people spoil it for everyone else by dumping their huge premine before the coin even has a chance

jayman
You hit the nail on the head!!!!!  I wish everyone in the crypto community could wake up see this.  Premining or broken pools is just the way it has to be done.    I would never have broken pools, I would just let people know there is a premine and all the stakeholders would sign an public legally enforceable agreement to not pump and dump.  I wont name the coins that say they did not premine, but this is exactly what 99 percent of all coins have done.  They are doing a "fair launch," but its just premining.  
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PREMINE - What's happening on: February 27, 2014, 05:27:12 AM
Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with a premine, at least in cases where devs took the time to develop a coin and obviously care to see it progress.  I see it as having a stake in a product, legitimate businesses do it.  Founders, CEOs, a lot of big wigs have large stakes in their companies, why should cryptocurrency be any different?  Because it has low/no startup costs?  I don't buy that argument, after all, isn't a person's time worth something?  Besides, it's not like it changes anything inherent within the currency itself.  A currency with a purpose will continue to have a purpose as long as people give it one.

I've said it once before, I don't mind if someone profits with an idea that can change the world for the better, and I sure as heck don't mind if someone profits in the process of helping me see profit.  Everyone who makes the premine argument seems so focused on what they're putting in other people's pockets, and what's more, they seem so hurt by it.  Why?  Granted, I can see why getting burned by a dev who used you as a platform to make some quick cash can be frustrating, but should that really condemn the other creators who are actually trying to do something with a crypto?  Is it really that bad to see someone get paid for their efforts?

Thank you KlondikeCoin.  A legitimate point.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PREMINE - What's happening on: February 27, 2014, 02:33:13 AM
In my opinion, It looks like the arguments for a minute premine is much more favorable than the arguments, or lack of, against premining.

Interesting.

Do those who think premining have a  constructive answer to show how a coin will work with a true 0 premine/instamine?

What I gather from these posts against premining is that those who don't premine can have a successful coin only if the developer is also a designer, security expert, hacker, accountant, marketer, advertiser, web developer, attorney and bank all in one.  AND he has no other job and money in his bank to just throw at an alt coin.  Now that is a good plan. 

And then I too agree 0 premine can be successful with that guy.

There is always an exception to the rule of course.
