1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / ✝️ Bloomberg calls Jesus Coin "The Most Useful Useless Coin" ✝️ on: September 14, 2017, 03:46:44 PM
https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-09-14/insider-trading-and-risk-retention

Blockchain, blockchain, blockchain (Bloomberg homepage, 14th September)


Yesterday I mentioned Jesus Coin ("Decentralizing Jesus on the Blockchain") as an example of a dumb joke cryptocurrency, but then I went and read their (emailed) press statement and it is actually kind of interesting. Not because it is not a dumb joke cryptocurrency; it absolutely is. But it is a dumb joke that has become self-aware. From the statement:

While the founders had hoped for their joke to gain traction in the community and create a buzz, what they certainly did not expect was hundreds of thousands of dollars of transactions to begin occurring as cryptocurrency investors rushed to actually purchase the coin. Soon after things began to get out of hand as the cryptocurrency began approaching a $1m market cap only days into a 60 day crowdsale.

Exactly why this has happened remains a mystery to Jesus and his colleagues, though there are a number of theories. As Jesus Coin is not a security or share, it's actually on far firmer legal standing than the vast majority of ICO's which may run into issues with regulatory authorities. For similar reasons, Jesus Coin is also going to be more easily tradable on the major cryptocurrency exchanges than comparable projects, meaning investors will be able to trade their Jesus Coins for real currency relatively easily. Quite remarkable, the very useless nature of Jesus Coin, accidentally created a currency that's more useful than almost any other.

"More useful than almost any other" is a stretch, but this is a standard story about fiat currency too. Dollars are a better currency than mackerels in part because nobody eats dollars. A cryptocurrency that can be used as a token in a yet-to-be-built cloud-storage system requires some analysis of that system's proposed architecture, of the team's technical capacity, of its smart-contract implementations, of its competitive position in the cloud-storage market. A cryptocurrency that is just a dumb joke is easy to analyze. There is no market-for-lemons problem, no worry that someone else has more information than you. The currency can trade completely information-free, which can make it more liquid and useful than it would be if it were ... useful.

Of course this argument proves too much: By this logic, any dumb joke of a cryptocurrency would be valuable. Uselessness alone can't make a currency; you also need widespread adoption. You need to get people to believe that the useless thing has value. The thing is, though, in the midst of the Great Cryptocurrency Boom of 2017, that's not that hard. Dogecoin is worth $144 million. Novelty and silliness are not barriers to adoption these days, and usefulness is not a prerequisite. Any dumb joke of a cryptocurrency probably will be valuable.

BOUNTY PROGRAM


In the coming days, Jesus Coin, the cryptocurrency of God's favourite child, will be making its hard launch.

2% of Jesus Coins are available for our bounty campaign, in his great benevolence. While we do not know the exact number of Jesus Coins that this will end up being, we will mint an additional 2% of total distribution at the end of the crowdsale (as per our smart contract) and these will be distributed to bounty campaign participants within 48 hours of the crowdsale end.

Jesus Coin is going to be listed on at least 3 major exchanges within 72 hours of the ICO ending, so participants will be able to convert their tokens rapidly if they wish (though we suggest hodling onto the holiest of coins)

5  Economy / Services / Looking banner to be made in HTML/CSS. Few hours work. Pay - 0.0025 BTC (~$115) on: August 31, 2017, 11:34:18 AM
Hi,

My project is looking for someone to give a couple hours time to create a banner for us for Bitcointalk. It must be designed in CSS/HTML and max size 51200 bytes. It must not have any images. It must appear 3 lines tall (firexof 900 px wide).

If you look around the ads on bitcointalk you'll see the correct style. If we choose you, we'll explain more of what we'd like and send a mock up of what is should look like. If you don't have experience - don't apply! We're looking to choose someone today and have this finished today and paid.

Thanks!
