2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / [ANN][DIEM] CarpeDiemCoin - Alive and well!!! on: April 28, 2014, 11:04:00 PM


    MULTIPOOL!!!


    Mission Statement


    Our mission is the extreme multiplication of our "Carpe Diem Investment Fund" by supporting quality coins in crisis and building a family of united coins.



    Our Story

    Some would call us a ninja mined coin.  In the original specs for Carpe Diem Coin the block rewards halved daily so if you weren’t mining in the first couple days it wasn’t worth mining.  Unfortunately our original dev didn’t have a plan for what would happen once the block reward got so low no one would mine it.

    Once DIEM got a little traction and rose in value he disappeared, after I would assume he sold off his coins.  We haven’t heard for him since.  
    It took a while for the community to realise what had happened and as the fact that he was gone became obvious we got worried.  However that didn’t last long,  we went through our panic stage and quickly went into fix it mode.  Tripppn (me)  and apmapm12 (neither of us are “devs” in the technical sense) took the reigns with the support of a small group of core DIEM believers and after many rough patches got DIEM into a stable place.

    DIEM’s blockchain was slowly dying even with a couple people mining for nothing there was no stopping the bleeding.  Our only choice was to create a whole new coin from scratch and have a trade in of the old DIEM for the new DIEM.  This was not an easy choice but the only choice from what we were told after talking to many devs of other coins. So we did a trade in that lasted about a month at which time the old blockchain eventually withered and died.

    Because of the trade in we were left with what we call the “Unclaimed Fund” holding a large number of coins that went unclaimed.  We thought about what we could do with this fund and put it up for a vote on the Bitcoin Talk thread.  Option 1: Destroy the unclaimed coins.  Option 2: Put it to use much like a pre mine would be used.  The vote went heavily in favor of putting it to good use.  The plan with the fund will be talked about later on.

    So out of the chaos of our dev leaving us our community was given a gift of a large amount of coins to do rebuild with.

    The Plan

    The plan is to use this fund to further develop DIEM into a top tier coin with resources at our disposal that are unlike any other coin currently in existence.
      
    To do this we are going to have to convert the unclaimed fund into BTC which will then be known as the “Carpe Diem Investment Fund”.  This will be done with multiple rounds of smaller IPO style sell offs as the value rises.  Unlike other IPOs, we have proven value so we won’t be over charging and getting dumped on after the sale is over like just about every other IPO ever done.

    Once we have BTC to put to use the first stage of our mission can go into effect, coin rehab with an emphasis on profiting from the investment growing the Investment Fund.

    Stage 1 - Coin Rehab

    How this works is we will find a coin that needs work and has been left(to some extent) for dead.  We use the btc in the DIEM fund to buy as much of the coin as we can giving ourselves a large stake in that coin.  Once we are done accumulating we go into rehab mode.  Every coin will be different but we will fix the code in whatever way is necessary, put into place the infrastructure required for a coin to survive in this environment(games, exchanges, block explorer, multipool), and build the community to a point where we are no longer needed for the day to day management of things.

    I want to be clear here, we are not pumping and dumping these coins.  Our goal is to leave these coins with a solid team from their own community to run things.  We hand over the keys only when the community is at that point.  On top of that we are bringing them into our family and we will be there for support at any time but we need to move on to the next coin.

    Once the coin has reached this point we responsibly sell off some of our holding for a profit adding to the DIEM fund and we move on to the next coin.  It is in our best interest to have a stake in all coins we work on as we are a family and the DIEM fund will be used to further the development of that coin as well.  
    Real emphasis will always be on DIEM but the long goal is to build a family of strong coins what all rally behind each other in an effort to strengthen crypto currency as a whole.

    Stage 2 - Brand Awareness via Targeted Sponsorships

    This is the stage where we follow in DOGE’s path but go far beyond anything they could ever accomplish.  They sponsored a NASCAR, I personally believe this was a waste, it’s the wrong audience(no offense nascar fans).  The sponsorship did get the broadcasters and fans asking “What is DOGE coin/bitcoin” which is great  but we need to go after an audience that has already hear of bitcoin and might have some grasp on what it is.
       
    This is also where having a whole family of coins opens up our possibilities.  Let me give you a couple of examples.  DIEM would be a perfect fit for something like the X-Games.  A younger crowd of people who already might have a mindset of “damn the man”.  We have been working closely with LOVE coin and their head dev.  LOVE coin wouldn’t be a good fit for X-Games but it would be perfect for a music festival.  This is the kind of targeting sponsorship we’re looking for. When we bring a coin into our family one of the first things we ask ourselves is how can this coins name be used in a way that gets people’s attention.

    Stage 3 - Venture Capital

    Following the ideals behind the phrase Carpe Diem we want to take advantage of every opportunity and help others reach their goals when they want to seize the day.  This means using the fund to help people looking to follow their dreams and start a business or create a product.  I don’t want to go into too much detail but we would own a portion of whatever they are trying to do and if crypto currency can be used in their idea it will be.

    All 3 stages equate to massive multiplication of the value of the DIEM fund.  Over time the fund we grow so large we will have the ability to bring crypto currency to the masses in ways no other coin couldn't even dream of.
