Regarding exchanges, did anyone try to aproach Bittrex?
They clearly state that it does not cost anything to be listed, but the token needs to go through a listing review before it gets listed: https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000475411-How-do-I-submit-a-token-to-Bittrex-for-listing-

Rob has an Enhanced Verified account with Bittrex and submitted to them and Poloniex back in November
Reference: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2388064.msg24639333#msg24639333

I contacted Poloniex again recently a few days ago, I think Rob submitted again to Bittrex in the past few months

What about to ask some youtube channels focused on cryptocurrencies to make a review for biblecoin. Each of these channels have approximatelly 100k-200k subscribers involved in crypto! If the price will be ok it could be good idea how to increase bbp awareness in cryptoworld.

Great idea, do you have any popular crypto youtubers in mind?
Just like the exchange list, we can compile a youtuber list, and keep track of status of contacting each one

Ive actually commented on a lot of crypto youtube videos about BiblePay,
but I found out recently I was shadow banned, and my comments do not show up anymore... LOL

The only somewhat popular youtuber I know who mentioned us in a video is VoskCoin (66k subscribers)

We need a way for "normal people" to buy BBP. All the Christians that I know will never open an account in an Exchange

I agree.

Just talking out loud:

Most people are in debt and do not invest, if they do invest it may just be a 401k at work with mutual/index funds.

Most people have only ever heard of Bitcoin

Most people do not know how to do a limit order and would be totally intimidated by one of the exchange pages.

Most people who own crypto, probably only own Bitcoin, and maybe some Ethereum, Litecoin, etc
And most of these people, have probably never done a transaction and just keep the coins where they bought them.

===

So, What does it take for a completely random average person to invest into BiblePay?

1. They have to have money to invest
2. They have to be sold on Cryptocurrency as an investment
3. They have to be sold on why BiblePay is better than the other Cryptocurrencies
4. They have to buy BBP, which means, creating an exchange account, entering bank/credit card information, buying Bitcoin,
potentially transferring Bitcoin to another exchange, and then doing a BiblePay limit order

This is why almost all of my advertising efforts have been focused on people already involved in cryptocurrency, but most of the crypto community is non-religious,

How do we educate the average person?

Who are our target audiences?

What is currently the make up of people invested in crypto?

Are there Christian computer groups? Christian stock trading groups?
How could we get involved with Christian youth groups? Young people are the most open to crypto

With the recent slump in price, I'm starting to look at ways of popularizing BiblePay.

I'm thinking it might be to our benefit to make it easier to get started as a researcher (for cancer mining) and easier to mine BiblePay.

We could consider removing the team requirement (IE you do not have to be in Team BiblePay for PODC payments); that would potentially open us up to the entire boinc network of World Community Grid and Rosetta researchers who are apprehensive about changing their team.  They would still of course need to associate their CPID with our wallet, but they would receive PODC payments without being on our team.  

The other idea is making us easier to heat mine.  We could potentially allow heat mining for any CPID that is successfully associated with a public key (IE the researcher has successfully sent a burn transaction and is associated with one public key address already).  This would make it easier to heat mine as then only one step is required and the user does not need to wait until being in a superblock.  It would also make it easier on some people financially to get started.

We may also consider voting for a lower BBP-per-rac requirement, but in my opinion its a little early for that.

I am open to the above.

Im confused by some previous responses though, because in order to PODC mine with BiblePay you need coins staked,
which means if you really want to mine to your full potential, you need to buy some BBP.
But how many miners are buying coins for staking? and how much are they buying? I dont know.

Opening up the team requirement could have a lot of benefits, but I could see miners being against this, more competition meaning less profit,
These new miners would still have to install BiblePay wallet to do CPID burn address, and then they would still have to buy BBP in order to do staking. Right?
Some of these miners could potentially convert and become BiblePay fans Smiley

I also think we need to always keep newbies in mind, and help them as much as we can.
Ive seen and heard about some people leaving BiblePay as a miner after the PODC update, they said mining got too complicated/confusing.
Would be cool to have a youtube tutorial on how to get setup with PODC.
We also need to make sure our guides and documentation are easy to use and newbie friendly.

Anyone interested in creating a Youtube PODC Tutorial?

Anyone interested in reviewing/editing our Mining Documentation?

Our Twitter is getting a ton of impressions


Our Subreddit has been on decline and looks like current Bitcoin chart haha, I think it got most views from the mining guides,
which have been phased out with BiblePay Central Mining guide and Ubuntu package and the new BiblePay.org website
as well as being less of a hub for information given the new site

Would be interesting to check BiblePay Central and BiblePay.org website statistics

If you bought Bitcoin exactly 1 year ago, you are up 2x right now.

Things seem to always lean towards centralization, there can be a lot more efficiency

A business that can buy larger quantity volumes of products to sell can get lower discount deals and therefore make even more profit

This is why I am a fan of CPU Only mining coins, you can always be a miner

I still think GPU mining is a good investment if you feel its too risky to just buy or you want a side investment, graphics cards seem to hold value VERY well

678  Other / Politics & Society / Re: If we lived in a libertarian society on: August 05, 2018, 09:41:14 PM
To make a libertarian society work, the members must willingly, and almost automatically, have respect for each other. This respect will get them to follow the golden rule, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

However, this respect will also keep them honest enough that they will do justice to those among them who deserve punishment.

The best training manual for a workable, libertarian society is the Bible.

Cool

This is assuming that everyone is following the N.A.P - Non-Aggression Principle. Do what you will as long as your hurting anyone else. Imagine if we're all a tribe living together with the same ideals. Then we wouldn't need the bible.

Well, actually, without the Bible, one still needs some guidance to understand what the non-aggression principle is.

The point is the little word "if." It's close to true that, "... if we're all a tribe living together with the same ideals. Then we wouldn't need the bible," for libertarian living. But nobody understands the non-aggression principle well enough to do it right. Non-aggression isn't a simple thing. Anti-non-aggression accidents happen all the time. This is part of the reason we should not live in big cities.

The Bible pretty much is the best guide for non-aggression. Why? Because all the forms of accidental and intentional aggression are dealt with properly, according to the non-aggression principle, in the Bible.

Cool

From the  BBP whitepaper ...

Circulation Characteristics

Hard Cap - 5,200,000,000 BBP by 2050
Circulation Type - Deflationary
Circulation Rate - Decreasing by 1.5% / month

Is Circulation Rate the amount of BBP already in circulation, or the amount continually going into circulation each month?
The latter. There is a full schedule on the wiki, but basically, we continually slow the rate we create more BBP.
