[ANN] (QTUM) - A Scalable Smart Contract Platform w/ Proof of Stake

[BALIK]

Well after reading all this I personally feel that the idea is awesome.
But only if you guys continuously work on it.
I would like to wish you guys all the best. I hope the things go as planned . It would be a success
Thankyou

Yes, this will be the biggest project of 2017 and one of the biggest ICO we shall see for Qtum. I am really impressed by the dedication and work this team is doing for the success of this project. Good luck to them.

After Waves, ICONOMI, Byteball, vSlice, and Komodo I think this will be the next biggest project this year aside from Chronobank, I hope they also reach the 2000 BTC goal, btw is the whitepaper is still editing? I want to read it now. ;-D

Will there be plans for a signature campaign? I can also translate this announcement into Spanish if you need it.

They have already signature campaign, currently manage by BlackMambaPH, check it out here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1747399.0
They also have social media bounties, currently for twitter only, check it out here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1754405.0

Try to contact Qtum if the Spanish language is still open.

Translators are welcome to claim bounties, and will be paid in Bitcoin.

Our team can do the translations for:

Chinese
English
Swedish
Arabic
French
Spanish
Russian
Belarusian
Macedonian

We will approve each bounty, and we ask that the translators post a link to their work and the transaction ID in this thread.

Bounty company as for me very good. Do you plan to launch a campaign on Facebook? I hope the developers will be able to do everything that they have conceived. Good luck!

One of the big project started with one of the big campaigns. We are going to talk too much about this brilliant Qtum team. I am sure this project will success and Qtum is going to have a voice in the cryptocurrencies world. I feel really very lucky to be part of this.

"Qtum, a blockchain project that aims to maintain compatibility with existing processes from Bitcoin and Ethereum, has raised $1 million in funding, CoinDesk reported.

According to the whitepaper, The Quantum Blockchain or ‘Qtum’ is a combination of Bitcoin Core, Proof-of-Stake, and the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The end product, Qtum Core, will allow smart contracts to execute on a Proof-of-Stake consensus model. This ecosystem was designed to provide a familiar environment for Smart Contract and Decentralized Application developers.

The project has received support from a number of notable entrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space including ethereum founder Anthony Di Iorio, OKCoin CEO Star Xu, BitFund founder Xiaolai Li and Fenbushi partner Bo Shen.

Patrick Dai, founder of the Qtum Foundation, told CoinDesk that the amount raised will help the team to prepare the infrastructure required to sell the tokens in a public initial coin offering (ICO), or a public sale of unique cryptographic tokens to investors.

"We raised the money to prove that our approach is right. We used the money to do the minimum viable product. The testnet is live now, but it is private, it is already working”, he said, adding that the Qtum Foundation could seek to raise up to $10m in the token offering.

The project kicked off in March 2016 as a proof-of-concept, and so far it has completed the design of the Qtum model – the world’s first digital currency that can execute smart contracts with a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism based on an Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO) model, as reported by Bitcoin Magazine.

Earlier this month, Qtum said that the team is currently working to make new wallets for desktop and mobile Qtum users. In addition, it is also working to merge the EVM and PoS branches of Qtum. It further added:

“We are extensively testing the Qtum implementation. In addition to Bitcoin and EVM automated tests, we are writing a Qtum specific test suite. Other than automated testing, manual testing is currently taking place as well. After in-house testing, we will request external code reviews and tests from independent software developers and companies.”

Qtum said that after the initial Qtum prototype passes testing procedures, it will be time to launch the Qtum testnet, which has been codenamed ‘Sparknet’. This would mark the final real world test before the official release."

i like your progress with this project, it think it will have a big succes and i wish you good luck to be the best project of 2017

[graviteta]

[kellendil]

Great start guys. Cant wait for the desktop/mobile wallets. "the world’s first digital currency that can execute smart contracts with a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism based on an Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO) model". The Idea sounds great and wish it all the success it can get. I'm glad to be a part of it.

[Pearls Before Swine]

So all the sig campaign participants have to post here once a week?  Smart.  Keeps you constantly bumped to the top.  I'm surprised that's allowed, but whatever.

Lots of advertising for this coin.  Lots of hype.  Hopefully it turns out better than some of the other massively hyped coins like Lsk and Waves.  They kind of died on the vine.

[Loganota]

I think they are on the right track, fulfilling all the requirements for the project to work. I think the project is very interesting and will surely achieve the goal.

[Nthused]

The project seems ok, I wonder how the consensus module will pan out with the network.

[SushiNoTomato]

I like the way this sounds with the whole Half Bitcoin-Half Ethereum Concept, could bring great things  

[BionicleBarnicle]

This could be the new era of cryptocurrency blending 2 of the big guns together to create something truly amazing, I am for one excited !

[rindo]

Are there any informations abou the escrow? And detailed informations about the ico process? Min cap max cap etc.

Not yet but i think you missed something information here as Dev said below.Just stay here and see a good news and some article which will give any information about their project

We will release the Token Sale details once PricewaterhouseCoopers finishes our business whitepaper.  Earlz is adding the development information for our technical whitepaper, while the editors make sure it looks nice.

[Paman Gober]

Just start then got leading for $1M ? It's good to start then I believe these will be great project, Goodluck team.

[Fweebie5]

I wonder if the Developers of this Project can actually deliver ? That would be amazing since it sounds so good on paper
