I can't seem to find what the total number of coins will be....  Undecided 5M-22M??

~darylluke.

official numbers will be revealed in the announcement thread. here are some general numbers.

after 2 years there will be a total of 21m coins, then there will be a switch to Proof-of-Bergstake, and I believe there will be 2m new coins each year for 20+ years.

so there will be total of 21m coins that have Bergstake rights, and around 60m additional coins generated with those 21m Bergstake rights.

total BRO coins will be 14m at launch, 21m after 2 years and around 80m after 20+ years.

this is an estimate, will get back with concrete numbers.

What kind of rake structure will poker have?
What is the ICO price?


have you invested in an ICO before?

Looking forward to the specs and ICO price. Hopefully theyre good. I dont like ICOs but this might be the most promising ICO coin.

Hi cryptoholic11,

Thank you for your interest in BRO!

The coins purchased at the ICO will come with Bergstake.  After the ICO, there will be a 2 year PoW mining phase to insure a fair distribution of Bergstake before going full PoS.


How are you going to ensure the ICO is fair?  If there is one thing I know about poker players, it's that if there is an edge they will take it.  How can we guard against one of the pros swooping up the entire ICO in one order.  I can easily see that happening.  Do you know about how much BTC you are looking to raise?  What % of the total supply will be in the ICO?

details will come shortly. there will be enough coins to go around. the way it will be structured, it wont be possible for anyone purchase all the initial coins.

My mistake.  I think I know how it's going to be structured.  You will probably just divvy up the coins in proportion to the amount of BTC each person buys?

yes, there will be an allotment of coins for entire initial offering.

The first question that comes to mind is how does one prevent the transfer of the bergstake?

its not a currency, its locked onto the original address,  so only way to transfer is to share the private-key. 

So what happens when the original bergstake holders die? I can see an attack here. Sell heavily discounted mining equipment to people with very low life expectancy, wait for them to die and then launch the attack.

it becomes an inheritance. seriously, if this is the only attack, we are in great shape!

Looks like dev slipped a little, he posted with this acc gutshot5820 sounding like he was dev but immediately deleted it, should of left it, now looks fishy, im sure someone else saw it

so someone posted and then deleted.. what makes you think its a dev.. and why is it suspicious?
247  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [Pre-ANN][BRO] BreakoutCoin | Bergstake | BottlessNight | Gaming Platform + on: September 16, 2014, 01:11:11 AM
Please ignore all posts from "BreakoutCoins" .. can we get a mod to ban him? trying to scam. 

we are deleting all posts with the bitcoin address scam. please do not quote "breakoutcoins"

Purchase Breakout Coin?only this way?

no, most of it will be distributed via mining

I'm not sure why you're unaware of Danny Johnson if you're trying to marry poker with crypto... seems like he'd be someone you'd at least be aware of.

interesting, does he have a coin? first ive heard of him.. been doing fantasy sports and crypto for a minute... some of us have been watching wsop since before moneymaker Smiley  nice to see a new character .. will be watching.


Yes, he is the person behind PINK coin, he's been in crypto for several months at least.

hard to keep up, been on this forum for over 3 years. this place really needs a redesign.. i dont know how anyone can read 2100 pages on each thread.

Im sure you guys have seen him in the 2012 coverage of the main event...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwFELmZJC0E
been a while since I actually watched poker...

why are there real professional pokerstars backing this? lol is this a joke

I think they are backing breakout gaming, and breakout gaming is funding the coin development.
252  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [Pre-ANN][BRO] BreakoutCoin | Bergstake | BottlessNight | Gaming Platform + on: September 15, 2014, 06:28:29 PM
can mine with CPU ?
i am not up to date, is there open source GPU miner yet ?

i didnt even read OP
let me guess
Premine ? or heavy insta-mine ?

small pre-mine.  

first coin to use Bergstake - a Proof-of-Stake algorithm.

its CryptoNote , PoW for 2 years, with CryptoNight based hashing algo

then changes to Bergstake, a pure Proof-of-Stake algorithm, that solves all the known PoS issues.



CrytpoNote = CPU mining. Its supposed to be GPU resistant, in that GPU is not much faster then CPU. but for those who already have many GPUs, I believe there is an open source miner.

Haha, if true, do you understand who is backing this coin? LOLz at you.  These guys have enough money to take this coin to the top 10 without a flinch.

Johnny f'ckin Chan!

It remains to be seen if these guys really are backing this coin.  I would like to see some evidence. I may troll the 2+2 forums looking for answers.   I will let the thread know the results of the investigation.

fyi... this project works great for American Football due to specific US federal laws regarding fantasy football... however.. 

Is a Premier League (football) one possible? This seems really quite different so not sure how it actually works but would be really interested in setting something up.

is there a notion of projecting how many goals / assists / blocks an individual Futball player scores? are there any "fantasy" Futball leagues?   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantasy_sport

if yes, then its the same, and it can be done.

A possible use would be free bets at a gambling site which would provide financing for it (just a thought)
go get the financing!

This is a shame, I thought it was Football as in Premier League "soccer" which would be realllllly cool.

go ahead, define the protocol.

How many people are in the Fantasybits community... I admit I'm intrigued.

only a handful, its a work in progress.

to join just tweet :   "#fantasyfootball @satoshifantasy"  , and your twitter id with be your fantasyname.

I am trying to get something ready for kickoff Sept 3. Currently there are a couple of issues.

1) fantasy players in general are not ready to manage their own id/key with wallet software.
solution is a central web-site.

2) there is no cost to joining, so to prevent bot/sybil attack, a "tweet of proof" is required.


currently working on a wallet and also looking for help for central website. may offer a bountry for website.

http://fantasybit.com/media/WebSiteSpecifications.pdf

will have more info shortly.

Two separate block-chain projects:

1) Satoshi Fantasy / Fantasybit
Satoshi Fantasy is a block-chain based fantasy football prediction market. Fantasybit is the coin within the Satoshi Fantasy blockchain.  
Fantasybit uses a new and unique "Proof-of-Skill" block-chain. US law explicitly defines fantasy sports as skill, and is not considered gambling. It is 100% is legal.

Fantasybits are a monetization of a fantasy football players skill in predicting future outcomes.  The Satoshi Fantasy whitepaper describes the use of Distributed Engineered Autonomous (DEA) Agents. Wink This is an experimental decentralized distributed autonomous protocol, and is designed to grow organically.

2) Breakoutcoin
Breakoutcoin (BRO) is a new alt-coin currently in development, it is a funded project. Keep an eye out for announcement thread for BRO.  sign up for info at http://breakoutgaming.com/

Bergstake is a new proof-of-stake algorithm, it is a generalization of "Proof-of-Skill". (This is the only overlap between  between Breakoutcoin and Fantsybits. ). Bergstake is also a block-chain based asset with value. Holders of bergstake have rights to sign future blocks. Its similar to a stock option.  

"Breakoutcoin with Bergstake" means that breakoutcoin is a hybrid POW/POS coin, with bergstake used instead of coins (or coin-age) for the POS phase. see http://satoshifantasy.com/breakoutcoin-with-bergstake/
