I remember Big Deal Foundation has been built, what are the guys doing, they took the money from Big Deal Foundation.
what you mean? explain your thoughts, please. The Big Deal money must went to our Asian partners. So how will these Asian partners help IOTA? As the Big Deal is still secret we don't get more information. But you can for sure image, what would happen, if for example sony announces, that it integrates iota in their playstation or something similar... That would be a market cap beyond eth. Of course that is a unlikely scenario, but just an example, which direction we are heading with this donation...

In my opinion, we as a community should really be focused on brainstorming new use cases and developing more consumer (human-usable) applications with Iota. The corporate, machine to machine, market has a way to go and David is working hard to develop those b2b relationships. It's our responsibility to focus on how we can get people (users) to use Iota for things other than just sending/trading.There's so much potential uses for a scalable, fee-less platform. I also think it's important we hit exchanges, with even a moderate marketcap we will see a pretty large influx of new community members and developer interest.

Theymos killed my thread where everyone was supposed to tip each other based on the value of posts claiming it was going to lead to spammy low quality posts... That seems wrong right? Like not just wrong but the opposate of right. In a weird way. Like you are supposed to go strait through an intersection and turning left or right would both be the wrong way but turning around is uniquely more wrong. Its like that kind of wrong. I messaged him and made my case. If I disappear forever after this post its because I poked the powers that be. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

It would still be of higher quality than 99% of BTT content, hehe PS: Initially your thread was in Off-topic and then moved to Altcoins section (where give-aways are not allowed), right?

It wasnt a give away though. It was supposed to be a place for the community to have a bit of fun and swap back and forth with each other. Rich tipped by poor as much as the other way around. Very far from some entity at the top giving away in a top down fashion.

Very far from some entity at the top giving away in a top down fashion. I could be wrong, but back in the early days around here (2011-2012) someone did make a site sort of like reddit, where you could tip posters of good content. It didn't last long, and I'm not sure why. I didn't use it. I just didn't like the feel of the place.

A Personal Quote on BTT from 2011: "I'd be willing to make a moderate "investment" if the value of the BTC went below $2.00. Otherwise I'll just have to live with my 5 BTC and be happy. :/" ...sigh. If only I knew.

My point is that it was, probably, moved to Altcoins to get an excuse to shut the thread down.

Any whales who want to sponsor me to write an essay for IOTA similar to the one I wrote early on for NXT? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) @Anon136 - Have you got the sponsors for writing the essay?

Na but thats ok. I didnt really get left behind. At most I might have thrown a bitcoin in the ICO. And that would have yielded a stake that I can easily afford to just purchase. And yea it costs more but there is a lot less risk when there is real working software so you win some you lose some. I thought it was like nxt but it wasn't. A LOT more bitcoin was donated total to the ico.

Sounds good. I think if you write the essay you will still get some decent amount donation for it. After you publish the essay, you can leave an IOTA address in the bottom of the essay or in your signature and people will donate to you. @Lovely89 has mentioned he would send you 50Gi. I will send you 50Gi as well.
