There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

If the code works, then good project. However 800-4000 btc is just ridiculous, are you out of your minds? By claiming these amounts you killed your own project (greed took over?). People will not take this serious.

Alright, so you've highlighted some of the largest websites there are.

How do you plan to get there?  (Hint: it's not all about the tech)

Waiting.

we're consulting with people regarding marketability to spread the word and gain use. Again, this isn't supposed to be hyped up like the many other pump and dump fails just to get investors on board.  The real world application of r3d is the selling point, it's just a matter of finding the best way to relay that.  We're already speaking with people that TheMage so graciously put us in contact with.  If you want to know a strategy for convincing people to buy this and how it's going to profit them insanely once the market is live, feel free to check the ANN section or crowdsale.io as I'm sure those "answers" are waiting in there in the dozen CFCs that I'm sure have gone up within the time I'm writing this.  If you want to know what you'll be able to use r3d for, we can answer those questions without hesitation.

It seems that most are concerned about our MAX sellout price along with the total r3d supply.

Let's do some math here to outline why we chose these numbers. We'll start with gathering some data from some popular sites.

Reddit
registered users: 36,136,190
subreddits: 688,164
posts in 24 hours: 52,117
comments in 24 hours: 469,987
up votes in 24 hours: 4,401,080
down votes in 24 hours: 702,349
(note: *24 hour statistics are averages from 10 years of data)

Facebook
active users in 24 hours: 968,000,000
pages: 54,200,000

Wikipedia
pages: 5,033,044

Bitcointalk
users: 526251
threads: 464804
posts: 12010460

WikiLeaks
docs: 251,287

Now, lets say that these platforms were built on r3d core. At our current proposed fee structure outlined in the ANN, Reddit alone would utilize a total of 126,476,665,000 r3d just for account registrations. Keep in mind that this is not all at one time (since total supply is 4,000,000,000). These are total registered users. that is 126,476,665,000 r3d worth of fees earned by miners. At 100 satoshi per r3d that is over 126,475 BTC recirculated directly from a single deployed application directly to the miners. Again, these numbers aren't even taking into consideration the number of posts or up/down votes. And as we all know more and more people are using the internet in addition to services like these and social media. There is nothing but massive room for growth and adoption for r3d's usability.

What is raised through our CFC is to be paid to the development team for ongoing features as a full-time development job.

*note some statistics are averages taken from 10 years of data

Quoting data on total market size only turns into a thought experiment. It's only the first and easiest step of market research.

You need to project and develop a range of pessimistic/optimistic scenarios on what percentage of those systems R3D can insert itself into, based on direct planning to get there.

Like, [best case] We talk to Reddit and they love the idea, we beta test R3D integration with a few subreddits, it goes great, we roll it out sitewide in 3 months. 100%.

[optimistic] We develop from scratch an app that serves as a layer over Reddit's existing public API (if that even exists) and develop an organic-growth subreddit by subreddit grassroots implementation using an MLM-style referral system. Once there's a critical mass of userbase (2% of subreddits? 10%?) we open talks with Reddit to implement R3D directly. 6-12 months depending on growth metric analysis.

[conservative] Reddit and all for-profit entities unilaterally reject R3D due to the loss of control a permanent, decentralized R3D blockchain gives, considering liability for hate/childporn/etc. indelibly being posted on their platforms. R3D's use case potential is limited only to services like Wikileaks and social sites under oppressive regimes; R3D fails to gain traction with existing services like Wikileaks because existing methods of keeping information alive (torrenting, Tor/I2P) work well enough. Footholds for R3D are gained only by offering tailor-made forums for specific oppressive regimes, one by one; translating costs, etc.

The above isn't market research, just tiny slices of thought experiment for each niche with no actual market share calculations or timelines. Sorry to play devil's advocate on you guys, but there is a LOT more to consider than total market size. There are 14 billion human hands out there, but that doesn't mean 5% of their owners want to buy your hot pink woollen mittens for $29.99.

Reddit was only used as an example to show how many users, posts, replies, votes, etc. there can potentially be on a popular site. The intent was not to say that R3D will be used as the core of reddit (although can certainly be implemented should reddit chose to do so). We are making a platform for people to build a next generation reddit, for example.

R3D is meant to be a change to the current system of crypto where there really isn't any "services" as of yet. R3D is pretty much 100% service based, with the ability to send, use, spend, and apply R3D coins, but not the primary purpose. The crypto aspect of R3D is only the "tip of the iceberg" so to speak. It's the services, platform, and application behind it that make R3D what it is.

Why a self moderated thread? Huh You are asking for a big ass amount of bitcoin here... The least you can do is be transparent and make the thread UNmoderated. Yes that too is a part of being transparant with investors and interested parties Wink


History tells us, that coins made by hired devs.. fail about 90% of the time in the long-term... What makes you think this project will succeed?

Doesn't matter, they're so far off at this point they're likely working on the next idea.

Do I blame either of you for the way you're thinking?  Not one bit.  We're riddled with empty promises daily in this arena and people are losing money hand over fist.  I'm not asking anyone to retract their opinions, only give us the fair shake to prove that this is us tired of the status quo, and we're doing what's within our abilities to change it.  Give us a bit of time to prove that and if your opinion changes afterwards or not, that's alright too.

I already did. It wasn't much, but I will buy more if I see chances that this project will start. Until now it doesn't get enough attention and that kind of attention it should get. And I'm not talking of buying blind the CFC without any questions. But the idea is worth it to be discussed with a focus on it's potential. It seems, the majority is more interested in gambling, throwing BTC to Copycats with some nice pics and one-line-promises. They just follow those, who won't hesitate to rob them... It needs a new generation of Investors. Innovative Devs with unique ideas are already in the market. Enough people who are able to think for themselves and distinguish between real potential and silly hypes are missing.

ITS to much 800btc to reach for ico.. plus its not a traders coin so why not give half away and keep half and tell your devs to do work for free in there free time..
because you will never reach 800 btc plus delete me again and i make sure it never gets of the ground I HAVE THE POWER Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Yeah, but all of these numbers are irrelevant.  You could fork at any time to increase or decrease the price of different services as needed.  You could fork to move the decimal place to the left or right to increase or decrease the number of coins at any given time.  100 satoshis is also an irrelevant figure for the price because once the ICO ends, the free market takes over.

It's kind of a head scratcher why you guys would worry about this stuff before hand, as it's relatively trivial to adjust down the road.  Exactly how much BTC do you need to develop and deliver this platform?  Thats the only number that matters right now.

5 BTC so far..only 795 more to go.

I want this project to reach 800 BTC but I know it won't. There is not enough volume to cover that much fund. Unless someone buys his own ICO I don't think it's even possible to hit 100 BTC let alone 800.

This is how scams have ruined crypto and scared all investors. Now good project like R3D gets posted and don't get investors because everyone is nervous to throw their money in ICO.

because the ICO is quite risky especially when investor confidence will crypto coin is not enough to convince the market. the only way is to convince them (red-investor)
