Qora needs some marketing pros

We are working on it and hope to have an outline for Crowetic to approve soon.

Looking forward to it. Thanks for your contribution to Qora

In addition to MikeMike's contribution, I think Qora should also have a dedicated person for marketing.

Some ideas about tie-ups for Qora I had recently:

Existing popular opinion sites can start polls using Qora at no cost to them. You can participate in the poll if you have Qora installed. The wallet can also have trending polls and send traffic to websites in return. This can work with Tech sites in the beginning. Start with one site, make a case study, then expand it to politics, celebrities and other topics that get viral quickly.

Plenty of opportunities to raise money for charities using Qrowdfund. Maybe we could tie up with some charities to hold their fundraisers on Qrowdfund?

Similarly, we can offer organizations on a tight budget that use Slack to use Quoth instead for their communications.

Before this, we need list of Quoth's features. Comparison to Slack.
And of course, need to find "tight budget" organization that uses Slack (or plans to use, because people don't like changing team collaboration tools).

Any one knows where I could get a hold on some Qora meanwhile Poloniex finally makes their wallet available again?

[wtman]

How about the Qora roadmap that was coming up btw. Would need more information on the Qora mining accounts that could possibly reward old holders

It was posted earlier here (I believe that was 'roadmap')

Good question! I'm interested also for an answer....

You can still buy on polo. Or, you could post your terms here. How much do you want to buy? what is the price you are willing to pay? are you wanting someone to do escrow? Are you willing to go first? Etc.

I already bought ~69k on polo but I want some in my wallet still. I can wait for the wallet to go available again, but I would also like to get some in the meantime, as no one seems to be able to know how long it will take for polo to enable their wallet again.

The poloniex wallet should be fixed sometime soon and then you can withdraw. I'm sure the Qora devs are working to fix this issue once and for all. We have many dedicated nodes now too and more will become available after the poloniex withdrawals are open, even more of them after the Qora mining begins (as per roadmap)

Yeah my wallet is up and running as well and it's just waiting for my coins to be withdrawn. I'm sure they are as well and I'm pretty excited about the coin as well. I've been told about 2 weeks ago and since then I've been trying to get some meanwhile the wallet on polo is available.

On a side not. Anyone knows how to install the wallet on a Raspberry Pi with an XUbuntu kernel? I tried to run it but I can't seem to figure out how to run the *.java files even after installing the default-jrc (or something like that, that the terminal told me I could get the command form).

would be good to see active development and regular video updates about Quoth.

Video demos anyone? Qora can get a lot more popular than this. I think it could reach thousands of users with some promotion. We need someone who is dedicated to making videos, running a dedicated Qora forum and answering questions full time.

Agree. A well made video promotion for Qora's killer feature would definitely gain traction if posted on YouTube and other social media platforms in order to increase awareness and popularity. All we need is a good video designer that would help us reach this goal, and of course some donations to make this a reality. If there is any donations needed for this whenever it is Qora or BTC, then count me in. I'll be glad to help spread awareness of Qora. 

There's sure a lot of potential value from decentralized hosting, polling and now the decentralized slack-clone Quoth. Imagine Quoth making news on something like CoinDesk?

Slack is a multi billion dollar company, but it doesn't offer decentralization like Quoth does. In April 2016 , Slack was valued at $2.8 billion.

Slack just confirmed that it's raised $200 million at a $3.8 billion valuation, confirming what Business Insider had previously reported.

The new round was led by Thrive Capital with participation by GGV, Comcast Ventures, and Slack's existing investors, including Accel and Social Capital.

The company has raised $540 million in total so far. Its last round of funding came exactly a year ago, when it raised $160 million at a $2.8 billion valuation.

Slack, launched a little over two years ago, is a popular communication and chat program for businesses. It allows people to send messages and create private group channels at work.

It makes money by charging monthly or annually subscriptions. It now has 2.7 million daily active users, of which 800,000 of them are paid users. In February, it said it's on pace to generate $64 million in revenue by the end of the year.

Qora surely lacks appropriate marketing and without that, we just can't expect it to gain users. Without appropriate marketing, how would people discover the usability of Qora?

"Slack is a multi billion dollar company, but it doesn't offer decentralization like Quoth does. In April 2016 , Slack was valued at $2.8 billion."

I quite agree with you! the potential of Qora is really huge, we are speaking about billions here!
Time will tell, but I am very satisfied with this sleeping giant

I'll give a bounty of 70k if I get an IDE running with Qora cloned from git. Last time I used Java was when J2ME was new. Even if I do not get it running, if Crowetic says the tutorial should work I'll send the bounty to whoever he says. If he doesn't say someone but does point me to a reasonable tutorial then 70k can go to shbour. Escrow is okay too. I might need a week or so to confirm that the tutorial works seeing as programming and crypto is just a hobby.

What Quoth needs is users before more features. Even adding new channels will be counterproductive at this point. The original 3 channels need to be busy!

Not sure to understand what you mean there eshriek. Do you mind explaining a little?

Alright just got it running on my Rasp Pi with ROKOS OS (XUbuntu kernel if it changes anything). Just need to go to:

1. http://docs.qora.org/#universal-walet
2. press on v.0.26
3. download the zip file
4. Extract
5. chmod 775 run.sh
6. ./run.sh
7. Enter the information it will ask you making sure to save your seed

Qora is developed using an IDE like Netbeans or Eclipse. I've found introductory Java programming relatively easy to learn. Setting up the Java environment is always difficult. I've tried with Eclipse 1.8 (I think) but no joy. I also tried with Netbeans. IDE = integrated development environment. It is not just setting the environment up, it is also integrating it with the git repository.

I gave up trying maybe a month ago.

Oh okay, thanks for the explanation.

a webwallet would be great 

Exactly. It would make things much easier and convenient for you to send a receive Qora instantly. If added, it could help attract newcomers into the Qora platform, thus making it even more useful. Since, Qora is a decentralized web server, I think that it is possible to implement an online wallet with it that would be free from censorship, and most of all truly unstoppable.

Also, a Qora application for mobile devices would be pretty handy. Most people have smartphones nowadays, so it is a good entry point for newcomers to get to know more about Qora and cryptocurrencies. If devs decide to take these routes, then it would be pretty ideal in order to help Qora grow in the long term. Just suggesting.

little secret...  web wallet is almost complete


After the next few things I'm getting developed are done... Then marketing starts HARD.

Be ready!
