Please read before asking, this question has been asked few times  Smiley

Patrick said crowsale will start at 1st of March (https://qtumnexus.slack.com/archives/general/p1486005104001480). And brett said the whitepaper will be released about 3 weeks, he said this on Jan 26 (https://qtumnexus.slack.com/archives/general/p1485380376000978), but you could read draft version right now on https://qtum.org/whitepaper

Only 3 weeks left before the start of the ICO, and the Qtum team will undoubtedly try during this time the most well-structured information about the project and to focus on attracting a wide range of investors, that it has become the most successful ICO in this year.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Sorry if this has already be asked previously, but is there a transcript or the Q/A
I also missed that Q/A. And want to know about that discussion It will be better that they announce a copy of that on this forum and it will also be better that they publish it as a part of white paper. In order to know about to about the discussion.

Not sure if this is all the q&a but this is the only one I found here. I also asked the same question previously. See the posts they made in here:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1720632.msg17713281#msg17713281
There's not much photo posted so I doubt if that's a complete one.

it will be one of the superb ICO will be most successful, because the Qtum team is really working hard and they will double their struggle so as to make the ICO more successful and i am hopeful that they will be make the ICO more successful.

I think that they have to publish these questions answers transcript at here because I do not think that it will be available sooner as it will take some time to be set in the white paper so it is favored to provide them here. So those people who have not got it and have missed it they will find it here and will read from here and will find about different things discussed.

We all believe that it will be more beneficial and best ICO on this forum but it is starting late as we need it to start now. Waiting three weeks will take some time. I wish that they start the ICO in the next week. As I want to invest as sooner as possible and want to see my profit sooner. I am sure with this investment I will get my money multiple times in profit.

No you have to wait for the right time for the ICO to start and to invest in the project because it is well planned project by the intelligent developers and they know well that what they have to do at what time so be in patience and wait for the right time to invest in that ICO you will get the profit when you will invest. We all are waiting for that time for the ICO to start and will invest in that.

On their website they have this information: "Compatible with bitcoin and Ethereum ecosystems." What gives you cause to say that they will accept other altcoins?
For me, this project is different from others, I think after ico will end, they will be on top list and this project will be more successful than others because staff is active, design and etc is excelent. I have small knowledge in ICO and similar things but my prediction is still what I say. Let's wait and see how successful it will become.

Disregard site design as it was not a good basis for predicting a successful ICO. There are lots of ICO who have like that but turned into scam and totally a shit now.

But on the other, just by taking a look at those QTUM future developments and progress that will be handed by them closely, we can see that devs are really active and taking all the things seriously. Just imagined how much they put money just for advertisement.
Mostly both, scam projects and successful projects has great template but we won't define scam and success with template but of course it's nice for eye to see great template.
Also they pay high for advertising and plus their team members are serious people, some of them are from other serious projects.

I'm wondering about ICO and crowdsale, are they the same thing? As I don't think so : The Qtum Crowd Sale will start on March 1st.  We currently have enough funds to last until the sale ends on April 1st.  The Crowd Sale will be hosted by major Chinese exchanges, which will be announced in February. There will also be a direct sale that is done on our website.
We're waiting for crowdsale and direct sell, and technical explain on the last revision of the whitepaper, I'm glad to learn more about it.
Read this : Crowdfunding vs ICO
One major difference exists between traditional crowdfunding methods and ICO, and that is market value. When a product is introduced on crowdfunding platforms, investors and buyers are aware exactly what to expect when the product is complete.
In contrast, it is virtually impossible to predict the outcome of an ICO, especially if users aren’t fully aware what they can expect. ICO itself is not based on any real-world market value, which thus makes it prone to substantial under or overvaluation of assets.

I like the idea of Qtum project which not concerned as medium of exchange instead of focusing on business support,
Qtum plans to deliver a business friendly platform that can push forward Blockchain technology.  This means it’s not just a retail coin, in which a merchant can create invoices for products or services.
Remember this : This project aims not to be another medium for exchange

You need to be patience. Devs know better when is the right time to start. Better to be in the beginning to more time than that later must be paused or stopped, because dev must improve bugs.
there is no need to rush

The success of any coin is tied to how many people are truly enthusiastic about it and willing to put their money where their mouth is. With what I can see, this project has gotten the people attention and we are all waiting for the take off.

at this time we cannot yet assess qtum will be successful and choose the highest ranking just because many are attracting the attention of those concerned
There are positive and negative impacts if the coin is not too detailed to explain this system.
We don't know at the minute to the next, rather than the intention of discouraging you guys as the creativity. but I avoid the law of nature that are difficult for a revamped, we don't quite understand about human beings, and that we ourselves be the same black hair but thinking

Enjoy the article on Forbes  Wink

https://twitter.com/Bitcoin_Friend/status/828729979026468865

Sorry if this has already be asked previously, but is there a transcript or the Q/A
Not sure if this is all the q&a but this is the only one I found here. I also asked the same question previously. See the posts they made in here:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1720632.msg17713281#msg17713281
There's not much photo posted so I doubt if that's a complete one.

thanks man

why Qtum better than XCP (Counterparty) http://counterparty.io
They will do same thing that counterparty already did - https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/counterparty-brings-ethereum-smart-contracts-to-the-bitcoin-blockchain/
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1504601.0
Maybe you didn't heard about counterparty?

To long start,to many unknown for me in this project.

they had to prepare everything carefully, so that the project has a good future and not just made up for the short term.
If you no have knowledge of this coin you should read this https://qtumnexus.slack.com/archives/general/p1486005460001503
This project is not a weaker or short term project but is a stronger project and the developer team from now are working hard to make this project a more successful and stronger project. I believe that it will be a long lasting project. Everyone know well about this project but I think that person is new to this forum that is why to many unknown for him.
yes we are also hopping so. and  more good news are expected to hear from the team about this project. which will bring more opportunities to people.  because this project too much successive so far.

I wish and hoping also to continue their signature campaign, also to promote and advertise their ads and promos. Wishing a good luck for successful of the event and their project.

If I remember correctly, I believe the signature campaign will run for 7 weeks.  Not sure if that will change or not.  The Qtum signature campaign is currently has the highest paying bounty.  I hope the Devs decide to extend the campaign until the end of the ICO in April.

Qtum Press Update:






Forbes did an article about the Qtum project.  Expect to see more press over the next few days.



http://www.forbes.com/sites/rogeraitken/2017/02/06/qtum-mixing-bitcoin-ethereum-launching-proof-of-stake-smart-contracts-platform











Purporting to have a host of tech innovations in the pipeline and influential partners, the architects of the Qtum blockchain – Qtum Foundation – have gained a prominent group of Angel investors and signed up a top four accountancy firm for project governance and risk control. The founder of Kuaidi, a major Chinese car-hailing service that merged with DiDi, and a big global bitcoin holder are amongst the backers.

It was through this network that US$1m was raised last year to kickstart that the Singapore-based project, which has the ambitious goal of becoming the ‘Blockchain of China’ no less.

Having previously announced plans to meld the Bitcoin protocol with Ethereum technology, they are now launching the first ‘Proof-of-Stake’ smart contracts platform. It is all part of what the developers behind the project hope “can disrupt entire business models” by spawning a series of ideas and engagement with enthusiasts.

The Backers

A group of ten major backers have provided their financial support and opened up their network of connections to help accelerate development of the Qtum technology and infrastructure around it. However, the identity of the top accountancy firm helping with the project’s governance structure remains undisclosed for now.

“All of our investors are strategic backers as well as financial backers,” explained Patrick Dai, the 27-year co-founder of Qtum (pronounced ‘Quantum’). It is the Qtum Foundation, established last November and headquartered in Singapore, that is the decision-making body driving the project’s development.

By any measure we are talking to some big hitters on the investment scene when looking down the list of the protagonists supporting Qtum’s endeavours.

As well as Chen Weixing, the billionaire founder of Kuaidi being in the fold, there is Anthony Di Iorio, Ethereum founder and CEO of JaxxWallet; Jeremy Gardner, co-founder of Augur and EIR at Blockchain Capital; David Lee Cuo Chuen, founder of Left Coast, Libai, and DLEE Capital Management.

Then there is Bo Shen, General Partner at Fenbushi Capital; Jehan Chu, Managing Partner at Jen Advisors; Qingzhong Gao, director of Huawei Strategic Cooperation; Xu Star, OKCoin CEO; Lihua Yi; and, Partner of ZhongWo Investment. Add to that Xiaolai Li, one of biggest bitcoin holders in the world and a Blockchain Angel backer.

Dai, a Computer Science PhD candidate at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, commenting on the level of investment attracted said: “We raised more than we originally intended to get the project started.”

He added: “But since these backers were able to provide a great deal of technical and strategic support, we saw it as very beneficial to the project. This has enabled us to hit a few major milestones before our crowdsale.”

A former Alibaba senior product manager, Dai told Forbes that funds from this crowdsale will be used to develop the technology and “enhance the usability of the platform”.

He asserted: “Qtum is committed to creating a globally influential open source community by co-operating with other blockchain communities, third-party developers and technological innovations.” Their ultimate goal is to bring blockchain technology into industries spanning finance, social, mobile, the Internet of Things (IoT) as well as other sectors.

While they clearly want to the community to be involved in helping develop this platform, Qtum has yet to decide on a date for its crowdsale.

As a combination of Bitcoin Core, Proof-of-Stake (PoS) and the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), the end product of Qtum Blockchain is Qtum Core, which will allow smart contracts to execute on a PoS consensus model.

A major Qtum goal is to build a so-called Value Transfer Protocol, which along with decentralized applications (dapps) can be used to support and enhance various industries. Another goal is to maintain compatibility with existing processes from Bitcoin and Ethereum, to be as secure as possible and to be used not just in the finance industry.

While Qtum can in theory be used just like Bitcoin to send and receive digital currency – except for the PoS modifications – the real power of Qtum centres on the Smart Contract system.

What’s The Interest?

Many consider Qtum to be the top team coming out of China given their industry expertise and enterprise interest. “Our backers like the fact that we have taken into consideration what has and has not worked for blockchain technology…and they see us building from there,” he said. And, the pioneers and the backers aim to make this technology extremely usable going forward.

Dai added: “There is high demand for China to have its own blockchain and our objective is to be the blockchain of China and gradually advance from there to be one of the top technology platforms in the world.”

The team at Qtum alongside Dai includes Jordan Earls, Qtum Core developer, and Neil Mahi, Qtum Blockchain Architect. Earls, who has been developing software since he was thirteen, reviewed over 100 altcoins and identified multiple exploits in coins.

Mahi, who has Master’s degree in Business Administration from ISCAE but specialized later on in computer science, has around twenty years’ experience developing software and four years’ experience in the blockchain space. There are also former employees from some China’s biggest companies including Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent in the team.

Bitcoin Core Protocol

From a technical perspective, Qtum is an open-source value transfer protocol and decentralized application platform, which is boldly touted as an “elegant new paradigm” combining  the stability of the Bitcoin Core protocol with an enhanced version of the EVM called the Qtum Virtual Machine (QVM).

Some have expressed the view that it is basically just another bitcoin fork with extension to the bitcoin scripting language and a new altcoin platform. The founders counter those claims.

While the Bitcoin Core is the most thoroughly tested blockchain code in the world, with billions of dollars of trust within the network and millions of dollars spent each year for the developers to maintain and enhance it, “unfortunately bitcoin is limited in what it can do with its simple script language” according to Dai.

“Primarily it’s used for sending value. On the other hand, ethereum allows for many use cases; but the source code is not as stable and secure as bitcoin’s source code,” he explained.

“The new paradigm of Qtum is where we bring the new industry-friendly consensus with a stable, safe and scalable platform. Qtum is combining the best parts of bitcoin and ethereum,” contended Dai.

As such it is claimed to be “consistent” with Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs), as it is based on Bitcoin’s unspent transaction output (UTXO) model, while allowing real-time interactions with the QVM.

Account Abstraction Layer

This is said to be accomplished by using Qtum’s Account Abstraction Layer, which allows the QVM to operate on a stable and proven platform – without the use of Ethereum’s account model. (Note: The open source project integrates the EVM with Bitcoin’s UTXO model and aims to provide smart contracts to businesses worldwide).

Dai pointed out: “Bringing a superior version of the EVM to the UTXO model does more than just allow the standard smart contracts you can perform on Ethereum. And, we plan to expand on this in the next few weeks.”

This Smart Contract and Decentralized Applications platform is further held up as allowing developers to “easily port” projects from the Ethereum blockchain to Qtum’s. But one might ask how exactly.

“All current ethereum projects can be easily ported to Qtum platform since the Qtum platform is compatible with EVM,” explained John Scianna at Qtum, who has worked for several startups included CoinPip and been following bitcoin since 2012. “The only thing a developer needs to do is to construct the states of contract and account based on the Qtum Account Abstraction Layer.”

He added: “We already have two community project. One is springemail (BiSMTP: Blockchain integrated SMTP), which we hope everyone will use their email as a wallet address, so people can send and receive cryptographic tokens through their email address. It aims aim to improve the usability of the blockchain industry.”

Likewise Qloha, is another project that will integrate into WeChat’s new mini app platform whereby people will be able to send and receive tokens through WeChat. Both these projects aim to improve the usability of the blockchain industry.

Qtum’s Roadmap

The startup has revealed that it is “constantly looking” to implement not just what designs they have now, but also to ensure that the designs they are building will be extensible and work well as a foundation to build on for their future activities.

While these are “in-flux designs”, some ideas currently being discussed include: better and faster interactions with smart contracts from SPV wallets, making data feeds a ‘first-class citizen’ on the blockchain with efficiency and usability improvements and Automatic/periodic contract execution, plus enhancing side-chain support with smart contracts.

They have also not limited themselves one particular industry, which is why they have talked to many different potential stakeholders so that they could build an “industry agnostic” platform and not be oblivious to actual business needs.

Embracing Blockchain Technology

Qtum is a compatible community that according to Dai “embraces much of the best Blockchain technology available.”

Through the use of Oracles and data feeds, Smart Contracts can be made that allow anyone to take part in a living economy. This decentralized economy model under Qtum will be fully open sourced, meaning that any developer is welcome to review the code base completely.

An Oracle is a particular agent (i.e. entity, node or address) that is trusted by the participants in the blockchain. An Oracle network can be used to implement a system for off-blockchain computations and (total or partial) contract code execution.

“Useful and exciting smart contracts operating on public blockchains may need or require to process certain data (e.g. financial, economic, business, meteorological, social) that is external to the blockchain (i.e. out-of-blockchain data),” Dai explained.

For example, the result of a smart contract execution could depend on external data such as exchange rates, the GDP of countries, temperatures in cities and sports scores amongst other data. The term data-feed refers to any system, procedure or technique used to fetch ‘off-blockchain’ data and feed it to a smart contract – or decentralized application – being executed on the blockchain.

“Platform approaches based on a blockchain with a built-in virtual machine have the limitation that every node must execute (run) all of the smart contracts in real time, leading to slower speeds and redundant processing,” Dai stated. “Then, it’s possible that smart contracts that are computationally expensive would consume (take) an enormous amount of resources when being run on the blockchain.”

Therefore, in such cases a full execution of the smart contract on the blockchain may not be the best choice. And, he indicated that it might be “better or even necessary” to run the contract or part of its source code off-blockchain, where computations can be done at a much lower cost.

Also, given the public nature of the blockchain – where data and computations are publicly visible – and the privacy requirements of many financial transactions, off-blockchain executions could be necessary to preserve the privacy of smart contracts data and transactions.

Blockchain Ecosystem & Issues

As a promising ecosystem, Qtum Blockchain as well as combining the advantages of Bitcoin and Ethereum community it is said to address the “inherited problems” of existing blockchain systems.

These problems span the lack of business-oriented smart contracts in that the current smart contract platforms are mainly based on ‘Proof-of-Work’ (PoW). However, according to a recently published Qtum whitepaper the “consensus mechanism of Proof-of-Stake is more suited for business applications.”

There is also issue of compatibility between different blockchain technologies. Bitcoin’s UTXO model, for example, is not compatible with Ethereum’s account model.

One can also add the lack of flexibility consensus mechanisms because of different participants. Requirements of consensus mechanisms in the public chains and permissioned chain are different,

Then there is the lack of consideration for business compliance requirements (i.e. identity and KYC/AML requirements of the financial industry, which the current blockchain implementations cannot fully support).

Furthermore, current blockchain systems are not open enough, with most of the triggering criteria for smart contracts being set on the blockchain itself. And, there are no triggering criteria from ‘off-chain’ data sources, which can be used to build a connection with the real world.

As to when Qtum’s platform is expected to launch in 2017, the Foundation hopes to launch it this summer. The testnet is expected to be available in a few months’ time from now.
