I certainly wouldn't want to be them at this time. The industry is maturing, and we are a part of that process. We gained a lot of respect from our participation at the family office conference, and we are lining up interest both for this funding round and future rounds.
I just arrived back in Australia after several delays and around 60 hours total travel time (24 hour delay included).
That is a long trip for sure. It was great to see you, we got quite a bit accomplished. Nice to hear that everything went fine, I'm looking forward to some good news in 2019  Year 2018 has not been exactly the best when looking at crypto in general, and I'm still not overly optimistic about 2019, but I'm counting (and trusting) on you guys to make some breakthrough in the year to come |

I have received notification that BCY will be removed from Bittrex. Which is the best wallet to store the coins, which I must now remove from Bittrex?

Crypto Hedge Fund Warns of Possible ICO Refunds After SEC DecisionPantera Capital Management said about 25 percent of the blockchain and digital-currency projects that its ICO fund invested in could be found in violation of U.S. securities laws and may have to refund money to their backers. The Menlo Park, California-based hedge fund said the projects may be at risk after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Nov. 16 announcement that two startups that raised millions by issuing tokens to non-accredited investors didn’t comply with securities laws. One of the projects, Paragon Coin, has already announced it may have to pay back investors. Many startups -- especially those that conducted initial coin offerings last year -- didn’t register with the SEC, and also sold their tokens to regular people, instead of the more sophisticated accredited investors. As regulators have begun clarifying their positions and revving up policing, the way tokens are issued has undergone drastic changes. While we believe the vast majority of the projects in our portfolio should not be affected, approximately 25 percent of our fund’s capital is invested in projects with liquid tokens that sold to U.S. investors without using regulation D or regulation S," Dan Morehead and Joey Krug, Pantera’s co-chief investment officers, wrote in the newsletter Thursday. “If any of these projects are deemed to be securities, the SEC’s position could adversely affect them. Of these projects, about a third (approximately 10 percent of the portfolio) are live and functional and, while they could technically continue without further development, ending development would hinder their progress.” https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-12-13/crypto-hedge-fund-warns-of-possible-ico-refunds-on-sec-decision Auch...that would hurt  But I wonder how are they planning to take money from those who already went bankrupt or disappeared with investor's money  |

I had the chance to test the bot and I must say that it is really easy to use, so I would recommend everyone to try it out |
|
|

Testing is going well, the major functionality has been tested and confirmed and no new reports of issues. We should be comfortable to release it soon.
I hope that I will also be able to test it tomorrow This days I'm also kind of busy, since tomorrow morning I'm also speaking at some event (not in connection with crypto or finances  ) and preparing for that was kid of priority these days, just now I'm making final adjustments to the PowerPoint presentation...and it is almost midnight here, it is gonna be a long day  |

Seems lively  Do you already have any impressions? Will the conference meet the expectations? |

A few updates:
We are getting close to being able to launch the DNotes Trading Bot, anyone who wishes to participate in the beta testing the bot and DNotes Pay Software would be helpful. We currently have 11 testers but the more we have testing the better.
The HERo website which will replace CryptoMoms, is getting close to finished as well. If anyone wants to contribute, please let us know.
Alan, Tim, and Lucy are currently attending the Family Offices conference in Miami.
Nice to hear about Family Offices attendance, hope it will go well and brought DNotes some new potential investors and also increase awareness and exposure |

While it may well help the industry to be open to more investment through ETFs, the industry should focus on creating real use cases and adoption, rather than the symptomatic rise in price that they cause. Could not agree more with this one. Actions like this do make prices rise, but usually rise is because of speculations and not because of intrinsic value. And because of that we get price drops like current one and panic on the market |

Great news about DNotes being featured in the documentary series I think that in this bearish times and considering that it is in the funding phase, DNotes needs to get as much exposure as possible. I'm guessing that is much harder to find investors for the funding this year, than it would be a year ago, when the mood was much more optimistic  Still I believe that the team will be successful and achieve its goals. Being featured in the documentary is one more step in the right direction  Agreed, it is fantastic news, if it gets picked up by major publications it will get us a lot of exposure. The funding is a matter of finding the right people. Unlike the ICO frenzy where everyone is investing what little money they have, open to the public and operating without any of the typical restrictions, we have taken the proper legal approach of equity funding in the parent company. This approach involves reaching out sophisticated investors through the typical channels who are much more cautious with their portfolio, as well as all the restrictions associated with the Reg D 506 (c). We understand how much more difficult this path is, but we believe this is the only path to long term success. We are quite optimistic about the upcoming Family Offices conference. If it's more difficult and it takes longer than we would like, the important thing is that we continue to push forward relentlessly. We've had plenty of setbacks along the way, but we aren't going to let those setbacks stop us from achieving our goals with DNotes. Quite right. There is no such thing as an overnight success -- it is just what it seems like for everyone else who wasn't paying attention. We all know that people only begin to pay attention once you've made it, and they never notice the years of back-history involved in getting to where you are. We will be making the most of the upcoming family office conference, and we will be getting face time with a lot of wealthy potential investors -- many of whom will not already be invested in our industry. The task is to find an investor, or group of investors who share our vision for the best way forward, and who have the greatest skill sets that can be utilized as we progress. All investors are great, but some can also offer large social and business networks and/or valuable skills and resources that can be deployed for the company's benefit. We're very excited about meeting everyone there. Dear Alan, you are right of course, success usually require a lot of hard work and not giving up at obstacles that comes along the way. Of course sometimes is hard, like the general situation in crypto now, when everything is going south...I would sometime just go to sleep for a few months and told someone to wake me up when the crypto (and my investments with it) will recover  But since that is not an option, instead of being passive and waiting what will happen, I try to be active and help spreading the word about crypto in general. I also learn in the meanwhile, so when the recovery will finally come (and I am sure that it will), I will be better prepared than in the last bull run, when I made a lot of stupid beginner's mistakes I am not familiar in details with the Family Office Conference, but it seems it is big and important event?  |

NovaEchange is now accepting new registrations. Not open to U.S. citizens. If anyone who can access the site or sign up, please let us know if you can deposit/withdraw/trade DNotes 2.0 to test it out. Thank you!
I have registered. For DNotes it says that "Wallet in maintenance, will be online soon." When I try to deposit some DNotes anyway, I got notification: "Deposit is disabled for this coin. Please check legend for detailed information." In the legend it is mentioned that it is in the maintenance, as stated before. |

Update on the merchant outreach program: WooCommerce sites are the best target for us out of the scripts we have created so far, followed by software developers. We have acquired a list of WooCommerce websites and we are starting with the highest traffic sites in the list. Created videos for any merchant looking to sign up with no previous knowledge of DNotes or Cryptocurrency. Developed scripts and promotional programs to interest merchants in signing up at this early stage of building an economy around DNotes.
We will reach out to them over time one by one, up to 100 per day, sorting through and making sure those who are offered the promotional package for signing up are good candidates to be listed on our website, social media, and in our marketing programs. As with anything of this nature, it will take a great deal of time to produce meaningful results. However the effort will be well worth it and get our projects and DNotes much more exposure into the mainstream.
Sounds like a good and solid plan. Wish you all the best in your efforts |

Whoo, that is a lot  But OK, considering the crypto prices lately, it is no wonder. I think that many companies will now face a lot of challenges |

Hey guys, I have a old wallet from 2014. I understood there was a swap last summer and I've missed it...  So no Dnotes for me anymore? Dear Samsei, I recommend that you send an email, explaining your situation to contact@dnotescoin.com |

Yeah, worldwide alexa rank has improved by about 200k positions in 5 weeks also. Pretty solid effort.
This is quite impressive considering that DCEBrief currently has a small fraction of the writers that leading news outlets like CoinDesk do. CoinDesk has been steadily declining in traffic for some time now, while DCEBrief is just getting started. I must say that I also read CoinDesk and Cointelegraph, but I fund out that their articles are little too biased from time to time DCEBrief has in general much higher quality of articles However, I must say that I like the layout and graphic style of Cointelegraph page But of course that is just personal preference. |

Very good article, I recommend reading it It is only normal that Crypto has some difficulties right now, it is emerging, young technology. And as a child, also our industry must learn some rules and be thought some lesions, before it can fully develop and be widely accepted into society |

These are the facts which can't be denied when dev still failed to provide what future will bring to towards this. Crypto card was the main idea of this project but still no action taken from SEC against them and we are in in trouble because of this delay. Maybe the SEC will shut down failed CEO Kris Marszalek and his Monaco "team" I wonder how is this project even still alive with so many broken promises and obviously being a scam? |

Oh, I have just seen that another CRISP payout has already been done this month, very nice It always brightens my day when I see that it happened |

That's a solid effort Brandon -- I know a lot of work goes into such a project! Congratulations, Brandon for a job well done. Very nice! I was not even aware that DNOtesEDU is preparing such an extensive report. I hope that you will succeed with promotion and sell as many as possible I have also seen that it has been a slight price increase in crypto in general after the recent fall, but I think since there has not been any important recovery catalyst, that we are still far from the recovery and still deep in the bear market Hope that we will get out of this one soon, but first I think that crypto in general will need to gain trust of investors again. |

We have created a trading bot, currently for use with STEX and Bittrex exchanges (more in future) and it is ready for live testing. The bot is very simple to learn and use, as well as beneficial to the markets. You can create static ping pong grids. To understand how this works, let's look at a single example bot: In this example, we'll set the supported exchange = Stex Enter the market with a = Buy Available market = NOTE_BTC Buy Price = 0.00000280 Buy Amount = 100 Sell Price = 0.00000300 Sell Amount = 100 What will happen is it will create the initial buy order for 100 DNotes at 0.00000280. That buy order will remain there until someone sells into it and that order is completely filled. Once the buy order is completely filled, it will create a a sell order for 100 DNotes at 0.00000300. Once someone buys into the sell order and the sell order is completely filled, the bot will then recreate the buy order for 100 DNotes at 0.00000280. It will continue this cycle forever until you cancel the bot. You can have as many bots as you want. Building a grid of bots going up and down the buy and sell the price range on the buy and/or sell walls. As the price fluctuates within the selected range for your grid, you will be able to make a profit as the bot cycles. You can make a profit off either side of the trade, or even split the profit by adjusting your buy and sell price. Using the example for buy 100 DNotes at 00000280 and sell 100 DNotes at 0.00000300, you would profit in BTC. You could profit in DNotes if you bought 100 DNotes at 00000280 and sold 93.5 DNotes at 0.00000300 (also accounting for fees). You can create customized strategies and grids for the markets you are interested in trading. It currently works with any market listed on STEX or Bittrex. It is a simple yet powerful tool for trading that anyone can learn and use and start bot trading in cryptocurrency. Most importantly though, this is the demonstration for DNotes Pay Software. Which is an automated paywall that can be integrated into any software, automatically accept payments in DNotes and allow limited time based use of the software, requiring no interference from the payee or need for a third party in the transaction. If you are interested in helping us test, please send me an email at contact@dnotescoin.com Bot is working as stand-alone program or as browser plugin? I must say that I'm not familiar with this bots, so I'm sorry if I just posted a stupid question |
