Posted in the Gulden slack earlier:
From Waterloodown:
Morning all, I have some news on a personal note and also had a chat to Rijk about implementing a great feature we once had in the wallets. First on a personal note, I have managed to arrange dedicated time to Gulden again like
I did between the years 2014 and 2018. Gulden has a special place for me and I certainly want to do my part to see it succeed.
Regarding the chat with Rijk and since it's more a blockhut development, it's not something the GAB needs to be directly involved with.
I will first explain the feature for new users to Gulden.In the past we were able to use our Gulden wallets to pay at bitcoin merchants. It gave Gulden usability and it meant every time a online retailer or commercial store added bitcoin as a payment option
it increased our available payment options. It also gives Gulden international appeal, in South Africa Malcolm and I used the feature a few times to purchase goods, coffee etc. At the end of the month I would rebuy
the Gulden I spent.
Near me I have a coffee shop called caloroso (
https://www.caloroso.co.za/ ) which accepts bitcoin, the owner was super impressed when I made payments with Gulden and the speed at which the transactions were actioned.
It became a talking point and made it really easy to get some locals to buy Gulden because their was some usability and not only an investment.
Why was this feature removed?When Nocks became an exchange they were no longer able to support this feature which was unfortunate but we in a position where we can bring it back.
Requirements for blockhut.Gulden will need a sustained price of around 2 cents for 4 months and the feature will be implemented in the mobile and desktop wallets within 2 month thereafter. A 6 month process because development, infrastructure, homepage etc costs
still need to be taken care of and then paying a developer to implement this for Gulden. Malcolm has the core code used previously which will require some changes and we have a developer that can sort out the API
for the wallets.
Rijk has made this commitment to me if the value of Gulden can be sustained and I think it's a great reward to look forward too, Once bitoin is working, other usable cryptos can be implemented.
No one expects the price of 2 cents overnight and please don't feel pressured into buying Gulden due to the above as I still believe in slow and steady growth that can be maintained.
I would like to hear from others what they think about the above and if it's a feature they would use.
