"El blockchain permite prevenir el fraude de obras artísticas, da reconocimiento al autor y deja fuera a los intermediarios"

Hola! Tengo una duda:

Cómo va a dejar fuera a los intermediarios si necesita a) una blockchain que reconcilie el provenance (por lo que veo, usáis Stellar) y b) literalmente vosotros?
Alguna web o whitepaper que pueda consultar?
Gracias

Interesting, I just sorta came back. Any link that can explain the whole system? ty


Intrigued by the number of merit distribution since several merit source were added, I took the time to make a little comparison from January to July 2021. Here's the graph.


Based on the data I obtained from the Merit Dashboard, it can be seen that since the addition of merit sources and merit bank, the distribution of merit throughout July has increased by almost 100% compared to June. Of course this is quite good even though the percentage increase in senders is still below 16%. I'm not really sure if the user base is growing any further because of this increase, but what matters most is that more users are involved in the merit distribution cycle. The user base may be able to grow given the rise in bitcoin's price so far could have an impact on it.

After the recent news by Dan Held in twitter ( https://twitter.com/danheld/status/1334152338806894598?s=20 ) I have been thinking on using this service.
Did some research, I just found this thread and I'm amazed that the CM of Ledn has leave it here like that. 6 messages in BitcoinTalk? Really? That is a huge red light, in my opinion.

Any other recent info from the last year? I find it really strange that a big personality like Dan Held or Qiao Wang endorse them, while they don't really speak about them at all.
What I'm missing?


Seems very odd to me that a company that claims to be so well known cannot sign a message showing they have any bitcoins.  :/

Quite agree on above post; There has been too much good publicity about "Not putting all eggs in the same basket". Diversification can't mean to buy the 10 loudest noise projects (market cap) without even knowing what is all about.
In fact, if you scan internet you will find several projects in Medium blogs of people that put 1000 dollars on each of the top 10 coins in 2017, 2018, and so on. The few that are still posting results show you how lame it has been so far.
But of course past performance doesn't guarantee future performance...  Grin

Back from the Far East Lands, tired from work but spirit rested and cleaned, the Earl of Iberia reads amazed all the developments of the last 10 days. He will join his fellow citizens on the Town Hall this evening so he can join the buzz and meet all his cherished colleagues.

(Monero House funding): i will order 10 coins, please.
(San Pietro): Amazed by the fast and heavenly construction, i will order another 10 Monero House coins to be dispatched to the Bishop headquarters as a present.

I will start to think about the design and mintage rules for my own currency. Awesome development! Ive been unable to find a deadline for that. this week?

Kind regards,
Lord Paulson, Earl of Iberia.

After several days (game years, heh) of travelling, some slack, and then some travelling, Lord Paulson rushes (as usual) into Monero House to put all his matters in order. First thing first: To stabilize ABC Corp and avoid any future similar problem. So , without further ado, here it is the :


ABC Corp Debt Restructuring Plan

Assets.-
ABC currently owns:
1 .- The Village Hotel .- A  4 quadrats hotel in 1-SE-V13 , Founded in 1506, almost 500 square meters built and 30% luxury, a 2 story guesthouse with large rooms prepared for an eventual *** Upgrade, and a House Tavern. Royal Design.
It enjoys a 207% Hotel Pool and has 1 MGR2 and 1 ASS2, COOK3 and BUT3 amongst other employees.
2.- The Stone Village *** Hotel & Casino,- a 4 quadrats Hotel and Casino in 2-C-B1 , Founded in 1532, 846 sqm, and Luxury 40%, also of Royal Design, and it enjoys a 493% Hotel Pool.

Liabilities.-
Currently the balance of ABC at the bank is (180) Millions. This last year it has earned 1.2 Millions, but before the Servant rehaul and all this last days of stallment, it has been netting 6-8 millions per year.

After a session with the great manager of Stoneton Workforce Services, ABC has cleared some unprofitable or misplaced workers, and netted 14 millions in the process.

The Bank has declined to re-mortgage the outstanding debt in this distressful years, so ABC needs either raise about 180 Millions or else sells via auction the Village Hotel.

For the capital raise, we have thought to offer again shares for ABC , first to current owners, and with the right to subscribe them equal to current holdings. the shares offered will be then 18 shares at 10 million each. If high demand is deemed, we can raise the number of stocks only if current owners want and agree, to be sold to them.
Thus, Lord Paulson and Tefer , as the main responsibles of this situation, have commited to subscribe the offering if deserted. The best turnout should be that current holders will pick 2-4 shares each so the dilution doesnt affect too much.
Lord Paulson has put his CEO position at disposition of the board, if someone feels it can devote more time/skills to keep this ship afloat.

For obvious reasons, current dividend gets postponed, but not cancelled, until we leave ABC clean and debt free, as its my vision. I really think both Hotels are well located and can be a steady stream of value to the shareholders in the days to come. We are still in Beta Phase and we should take care of all this early investments to reap the rewards later.

Thanks,
Lord Paulson,
ABC CEO


-------------
PS.- As one of the initial senior holders have sold their stake, this should be fixed soon. Any newcomer is welcomed as well, i will be (again) almost-perma-connected to the IRC channel. See you all there!

i heard and readed only bad things abt xapo ; i dont say they are scam, but for sure they dont provide good service

Ok, then you can contrast here with my experience: Flawless service to me so far, Customer Service sometimes answer in minutes, just two times something didnt worked properly. I have recommended the wallet app to my friends and thats the first wallet they are actually understanding to use.

But thats my experience, of course.

His Majesty Summer Palace

In a seemingly neverending spree of great projects, we have decided to build a villa to be used in the summertime. The site acquired is basically all of the 2-NW chapelry that the Town sold for 800 million after selling the smooth QC HQ area to him with buildings for 300 million.

The palace will be constructed as soon as we find time with the design, others want to build also and we are happy to prioritize them Smiley

Another thing is that the grounds have space for several haws, which the Barons or higher who don't yet have a haw can apply. There are not enough haws for all of the eligible, so the first ones eat the last.


I would like to apply for the Haw Number 4 please. Although that will not be my summer residence, i plan to do some fancy project due its central nature in the chapelry and the fact that everyone needs to pass by it to cross from 2W to 2N and viceversa. Also it will aim to be a visiting tourist point, and will bring some flair to the whole borough, something that was in need before; now with His Majesty Summer Retreat Palace that objective is clearly achieved. But nevertheless, here i present thee:

THE MAXIMOS LABYRINTH


From the Codex Wikipedicus :

In Greek mythology, the Labyrinth (Greek λαβύρινθος labyrinthos, was an elaborate structure designed and built by the legendary artificer Daedalus for King Minos of Crete at Knossos. Its function was to hold the Minotaur eventually killed by the hero Theseus. Daedalus had so cunningly made the Labyrinth that he could barely escape it after he built it.

In colloquial English, labyrinth is generally synonymous with maze, but many contemporary scholars observe a distinction between the two: maze refers to a complex branching (multicursal) puzzle with choices of path and direction; while a single-path (unicursal) labyrinth has only a single path to the center. A labyrinth in this sense has an unambiguous route to the center and back and is not difficult to navigate.


There will be cool to have a gardened labyrinth in CK! Its also good for contamination! Oh wait. Nevermind, it will be something special, and another reason for foreigners to stop by.

I will contact Dame Roopatra to see if she wants to meet the challenge, and everyone in the game is welcome to propose ideas or modifications to this simple, albeit challenging, project.

Thanks,
Lord Paulson, Esq.

ABC Decade Dividend Announcement
------------------------------------------

Letter to our investors:

So, the first decade has swiftly passed! The corporation finally started to operate on 1533. Thus the accounts closed on 1542 for this first Shareholder Meeting.
Again, thank you to those shareholders that put their trust on us. Their gesture will not be forgotten.

After this first decade, ABC has earned 75.965.500 moneritos. As they carry a substantial debt after the purchase, mortgage and construction of the East Village hotel, it seems that our initial assumptions of a 0.8% daily interest were correct.
ABC will therefore withdraw 40,000,000 moneritos as ordinary dividend and will credit each shareholder account.

All the reminder profit will go to further clean the current negative balance of (after dividend) 175.969.088 moneritos.

Each Senior share holder will receive 800,000 moneritos per Series A stock:

List of Shareholders  /  Dividend
   
Lord Paulson            17.600.0000
Freeman Tefer            6.400.000
Prince of New Liberty   4.000.000
Earl of North Face      4.000.000
Prince of Oz              4.000.000
Master Hokusai           4.000.000

Considering that the closing of the year is made every night and that nevertheless the assets will always remain in the corp, the next decade dividend will comprise 1544-1553 , so we leave one extra year "for free" to generate as much cashflow as possible.

As the number one priority for ABC is to maximize profits, Lord Paulson and Freeman Tefer as the majority owners have settled the new APR for the second round will decrease to 0.6 APR; this is 600,000 Moneritos per stock. so we can focus on repaying debt, saving for mortgage deadline and starting maybe a new project that allows us to gain even more traction. Also, recently the services pool have suffered a severe downgrade, so it makes sense to "downsize" as well. Dividend will be paid on 1554.

The value and daily business of our Hotels is stable and even on a slight rise, seeing other offers in the market, so we are quite pleased overall with either the production during this stage and the near future plans.

Every Series A shareholder is invited to meet us at freenode ##Crypto-Kingdom to discuss current/future plans.

Thanks all!

Signed,

Lord Paulson, Esq. CEO

when can i play this game?

Hi!
Its already on! Currently is carried on Google docs while we wait to the first beta in a dedicated website, qhich should happen soon.

Check the first post in the thread for links to the City plans, characters, possesions, corporations, etc. The best way to get started is the New Player Starting Kits, which anyone will be happy to explain on ##Crypto-Kingdom in Freenode.

If you choose to start just choose a male/female, starting age (18+), and in-game name, and let us know here or in IRC. Your entry will be then added into the database.

Its still possible to be amongst the top 100 first players in the game, (we are currently at #72) and also entering in a very profitable era (we are near 1540 and until 1600 all gold owners "stake" stone for free every day, amongst other benefits)

If you start the char, let me know here by PM or on ##Crypto-Kingdom in Freenode to Top8 ; My char, Lord Paulson, will welcome you with a nice gold ring (5 gold inside the game) and will grant you a temporary room in The Village Hotel, in the Old City, while you work yourself the way to owning a home :-)

This offer is open to another three new characters from unique BCT members and will expire on 31th Dec!

What is the current & total gold supply? How fast is it growing, what formula is being used?

Fascinating  thread!

The total gold supply is cell F1 on the CHAR sheet, which currently shows 685,000. I could be wrong but I don't think it is growing at all, just being traded between players (including the king, who started with all of it). My understanding is that it will start to grow in the online version by being issued to active players at a very slow rate.

The total grows 5K per year as HM previously elucidated.  This has been constant (though years to days has halved).  We are still in the Ancient phase.

Quote from: HM The King
In the Ancient phase of the game, which lasts 140 real-days, a total of 1,000,000 gold are mined each day by the King. He seeks to sells half of them to the investors or players to fund the development. Gold is an income-generating resource, granting building resources in the Ancient era and XMR in the Economy era. In the Economy era, King no longer mines gold but rather new gold is generated to all players of the game in proportion to time spent online (captcha will be asked, to ensure only human playing generates gold). At the current exchange rates, 1 real-month of rather active play generates 7 gold (from Version 5: Economy onwards). Owners of gold select the town council. It also has various ingame prestige uses as a luxury resource. Gold's value is measured in a free market.

Thank you for the correction but I don't understand these numbers. How does 1,000,000 gold per day turn into 5K per year?


Im pretty sure thats a typo, the pace was changed later. I think that during Most Ancient phase at least 500,000 gold were mined so far, and in Ancient phase the rate is slower. As far as i understand, upon going live online the total gold output will be about 1 million and then it will be a time-based generation. Risto in one post once said that for about a 2 hour of engagement (plyaing on the trollboxes, being online active, browsing pages etc) the generation will be about 0.2 CKG/day.

I have no doubts this final numbers will be tuned when the time comes; for example, no decimals have been used yet to count CKG , but as soon as the price raises more and / or start getting quoted on a exchange as a XMR sub market, it will.
The question of adoption/faucets/distribution will be adressed for sure, we are lucky HM himself has mantained an incredibly long and detailed thread on XMR Economy about it, so i will pretty much agree with whatever opinion he might have on the matter.

Bottom line: There is nothing written in stone just yet, but to purchase CKG now until 1600 Game time its still pretty much to participate in the ICO of the game: Potential Risk, Potential huge rewards. But everyone can be confident that our main target is adoption, stability, growth and fun, and in no particular order ^_^

I would like the honour to be the first voter on the Esteemed Monuments!

I would like to vote for The Golden Obelisk and the Cathedral, as they are the first two spots i carry my visitor fellow editors when they arrive at the City.

Soon some nice views will be at C2 too , but for now the smell of fresh construction makes it still not attractive to my posh colleagues ^_^



The Hall of Justice building in 2-C will be ready soon. The development is 4-floor, 10 quadrats in total. The town hosts 6 q and the ABC Corp the remaining 4 q.  The building has a total 120 m of facade to the TIE Square and the adjacent main streets and it is a magnificent example of the New City architecture. The costing is not done yet Wink


Lord Paulson, Esq. as the ABC CEO is very pleased with the layout and happy that our company is part of this fantastic development. We at ABC are proud to keep with the tradition of having our buildings made by the Most Ancient Royal School of Architecture.
