I have some theplace invites for sell


theplace.bz  -  21 $ / invite

where would you like me to post the transaction id's?
I have no problem doing that sorry to break the news to you.

Don't start putting assumptions out there because i'm not on the escrow train.
Just waiting for the 2nd payment to clear and would just have had 2 successful transaction for a decent amount in a 30min period with no troubles.
Not here to play games was in a bind and needed to conduct business at a fast pace which I did and unless you see them report different i would leave it at that. Thanks

I got $250 btc thanks to @RHorning and will make sure to leave forum feedback as that seem to be important.

I am still in need of the rest which is $150 btc and will trade $200 paypal

Waiting on reply

No I completely understand it's just alot of us conduct our transaction outside of forums like via skype and such no worries guys i'm sure I might make it before this get's filled then I will no longer need it and delete this. Thanks for everyones time

As the subject states I have $575 in PayPal and need $450 btc, it's a great deal any only offering it as I need that sum right away for a project.

Been a member for a long time so scammers bypass this as I will identify and expose you before you have a chance to type [admin]

Thanks again for the help

I tried : https://siatalk.slack.com/

But it didnt show me how to register, and my normal slack pw didnt let me in.

If you let me know how to join or send an invite to melvincarvalho@gmail.com I'll drop by!

Thanks for the quick answer!

Ubuntu 16.04 running the UI "Sia-UI" from the command line.

It is synced fully, I did see my coins were updated yesterday, but on restarting the wallet, there wallet unlock is freezed (i have it running now for 2 hours, I'll leave it going some more)

No input/output errors in the console even when I use DEBUG=* ;

I tried writing in irc, but didnt yet can an answer.  I'd by happy to drop in to slack if you give me an invite

Im a programmer and coin developer, that can follow instructions, is there some way to do more diagnotics?

Thanks for a great project.

I am having trouble unlocking my wallet.

I get "Unlocking your wallet, this may take a while (up to several minutes)..."

It worked for me once, but now after several hours waiting still no new message.

Version is 1.03 downloaded freshly yesterday, running in a custom location

No output in the console even with DEBUG=*

This worked for me!

Some comments from slack to explain our strategy:

The project is not abandoned.  The founder Nathan Rixham aka consolidation aka @markpfennig was funded to work on the project for one year.  He then took all the source code and broke of contact, leaving many people including the foundation with lost funds, loans and other broken promises.  We are perusing this to try and recover the code.  It might go to legal action which could take years, but we are resolved to follow through to make sure those that were scammed are made whole.

As far as the crypto currency goes, it does what we need, we are not a crypto currency oriented project.  We are a mass market oriented project which is get a large user base using marking in daily use.

We operate as a global team transparently, with this being our main communication and decision making area.  In truth there's not much to decide.  The strategy has always been constant, to grow the user base and to grow marking, leading to a successful product.

We operate on a consensus basis, we dont vote, unless something is clear and unanimous.  I suppose our only requirement is to prevent a hard fork, which isnt on our radar at the moment.

hope that helps!

to break it down a bit further, by my calculations for member of the bitmark user base puts about 1-3 satoshis on the coin, our main user base right now is poloniex, but super net have said they want to implement too ... theres a few others interested in marking based projects, one nice thing is that if any one marking project goes viral the whole of bitmark goes viral

my guess is that poloniex has a user base around 10k and growing

if we get to 1 million users we may be able to play in the same league as litecoin

but i would say a more realistic goal is to try and get to a broad user base of around 25,000

which hopefully through poloniex and other efforts isnt out of the question

that will hopefully be a spring board to hit 100k users which I think would then start to create a virtuous circle of growth

generally the feeling is that community integrations have worked well ... we have a few, but would like more

how can this be achieved?

looking at the stats, for every 40-60 people that show interest in the project, one goes away and does a community integration, and maybe 2 or 3 get close

so to get more integrations, we need

- more people interested in the project, so some will integrate marking.  Note as marking spreads more people organically find out about it

- technology make integration easier so that number drops from 1 in 50 to lower, maybe 1 in 40 would be a good next metric, and perhaps eventually 1 in 10

- repeat integrations -- the first is the hardest, but once you've done one, it's possible to do more with a lower learning curve, you could imagine say half a dozen a year

at some point it becomes like a snowball effect where new people find out about the project constantly and help with all of the above

until then, baby steps

getting the next integration would be a great milestone ...

Medic and I are in control of the github repo, not an issue there.

We need a new explorer, the zmark one is working, there's others I think, we should make a list.

New site -- we never had an old site -- someone volunteered to make one, but nathan shot it down saying he had something better.  Turned out to be untruthful.  So we've actually never had a site, that has hurt us.  If you'd like to make a site, talk to medic or amarha.

New Thread, ill leave this to medic (PM) and amarha (community manager) since we cant update OP it could be useful, but there's a lot of info here.

Our community has not had optimal experiences with private communications.  If your intentions are good, please engage in public, and the community will judge.  Be warned, we've been burnt before by anonymous devs, so expect some skepticism.
