Well, I'd love to get this project off the ground, and if you need any help from a C programmer, I'm here.
Drop me a line, shapetwist@warpcoin.comYou never know.

who are the developers of this project?
how can you (the developers) show your commitment not just to the delivery of the project, but to the ongoing upgrades, innovation, and improvements you will bring to the team/product at WARP?

WARP has been added to www.shapeshift.io discovery list, meaning they will review it for a possible addition. Any proof? There is a link to discovery list?

WARP has been added to www.shapeshift.io discovery list, meaning they will review it for a possible addition. Any proof? There is a link to discovery list? I have tried for a long time to get on Shapeshift with BITZ and they told me in July we were on the "Discovery" list but I don't think the list is available. What Shapeshift said in the e-mail to me was this: "we normally do not add coins that are just released to the market. We have to see them get picked up on multiple exchanges as well as make sure the volume of the coin seems to be continually increasing and that there is a strong market demand. We have a larger list of qualifications we look at that we do not provide publicly, but those are the basics." So being on the "discovery" list doesn't mean much, they judge it by volume and demand. But I hope you get this off the ground...

But I hope you get this off the ground... Yeah, at this point it doesn't mean much. I'm trying to bring awareness by contacting services that can accept WARP in the near future. CoinWallet.co is another one that will add WARP to their wallet services. who are the developers of this project?
how can you (the developers) show your commitment not just to the delivery of the project, but to the ongoing upgrades, innovation, and improvements you will bring to the team/product at WARP?
Hi, I'm the developer of the project. Single other developers and coders are hired per different tasks. Not necessarily out of the forum. At the moment this is my way to go, in the future I'm open to get a permanent developer on the team. I think my commitment can be seen! Fortunately I have time that I can afford to spend on this, like I have been doing for the past 5 months.

Made a little intro animation. The plan is to work more with video too since it's a hot medium that reaches more general audiences. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.warpcoin.com%2Fassets%2Fimages%2Fwarpvideo.png&t=665&c=FkxI1QUEMkFixg)

Looks interesting. I have some questions though. Since you invested your own funds to help develop this initially (I understand your not a coder but hired coders?) You seem to me like the project manager is that correct? Are you putting your own btc into the crowdfunding too so that you get a stake of WARP? It doesn't make sense to me that you will give away all the coins and not save any for yourself? I noticed for "WarpGO" it says "multi-platform instant p2p transactions app with virtually no fees"? Won't fees be required to support the network? What are the staking rewards for this coin? If I invest, I want to be able to earn staking rewards? Look forward to your reply Edit: Also I tried to use the linux wallet and got this error: A fatal error occurred. Warp can no longer continue safely and will quit.
EXCEPTION: St13runtime_error CDB() : can't open database file , error 21 Warp in Runaway exception Nevermind, fixed, was a permission error, should use 'chmod +x Warp-qt-linux' not sudo

Hey! Sure I'll be happy to answer! Yes, I'm not a coder. You can say I'm the project manager, or the founder with the concept and vision. I hire coders for specific tasks, but most of the work so far was done by myself. There is no one else behind it, so it's not like I am managing a project only. I've mentioned in this thread before that I can't buy into WARP right now, for giveaways or any other reason. That wouldn't be buying, it would be getting coins for free. I guess there is no way to prove it besides analyzing the blockchain, all transactions can be checked. But why would I be here preaching about fairness if I was to follow any wrongdoing? Yes, fees are required to support the network. Virtually no fees kind of means that the fees are so small that are almost nonexistent. But regarding the "instant", I'm actually looking into other coins' development that I find interesting and essential to add to a coin that values usability. So zero-time transactions are being studied.

So zero-time transactions are being studied. But can't you follow the same crowdfunding rules, generate a btc address and send some btc to lock in your own stake. So the way your saying it, it sounds like you will buy WARP on the market after crowdfunding is over??? OR you don't want to hold any WARP yourself? Is there a % of inflation to get to the golden ratio of total amount of coins? What is the staking rewards? To generate those new coins. Thanks for your quick answers, but still looking for more info. Edit: On your warpcoin.com website, under specs it says Proof of Stake 1% Yearly.

Yes I can buy WARP of my own, with my own BTC, but I'm not going to that with my own sale. You do realize that I wouldn't be spending anything since the BTC would end up in my pocket anyway? That's not a fair position to take. I would love to buy WARP off the market as a personal interest, and since I believe in the project so much, that is something I will surely do! The stake percentage is a basic 1% yearly. I wanted to keep distractions to a minimum and as simple as possible. Too many terms and specs and unfamiliar conditions are hurtful of larger adoption. The point is to be quick and easy and useful.

It just seemed a bit weird to me that the founder wouldn't hold a stake in coins. Hopefully he buys it on the market like he said. @shapetwist What is the minimum amount of BTC you need for crowdfunding to be successful?

@shapetwist What is the minimum amount of BTC you need for crowdfunding to be successful?
I think it would be weird and unfair to hold both investors' BTC and free WARP. Off the market is the way to go. That's a very hard question, but I somehow answered it before in this thread. At this moment, the funding would be considered a failure and I would return everyone's coins. It's all about looking it with a realistic approach. If my expectations are not met, I will come in public and say what can be done and what not. Then I will let investors decide. But damn, I am really confident that it will be a reality!

From your crowdfunding information and rules it says:
"2.1 Purchase. You agree to purchase and we agree to sell, on the terms set forth herein, your Resulting Distribution. Your purchase is final. We will not provide any refund of the purchase price under any circumstances."
What about the refund if it is not a success?

The terms and conditions are there to protect me against the worst case scenarios. If someone is going to try to wrongfully harass me for a refund then they just can't do it in a legal way. But I'm still level-headed and aware what makes a good distribution. If it looks too weird or unfair, there is no point to go on, or to try and create a fake economical environment. It will be just better to stop the project and return the investors' funds.
