[ANN][HLM] HELIUM

[Bibi187]

I really thing this project have good future.

coin101 have good history and trust foundation

He can be not good in communication, his work speak for it self.

On other hand X11 need another solid coin, specially with this ASIC raining.

I will support HLM with half of my hashrate power for sure.

Less miner, more reward, less time to wait to owns masternode.

But in long term i see HLM as a real valuable coin.

[krisnajsadrak]

It would be nice if we had news and progress after the snapshot.

Everyone is waiting.

I love this project and I continue to be a supporter but it is important that there is movement quickly.

Project dead?
hlm  start = 0.0001$

I hope so that will be the starting price, I would buy a few millions  

And i hope this will happend too, so my bag will full with this Helium   

When start? in 2019? 2020?
Spr dead. Lots of people loss your dollars.

i think, the dev still work for HLM and sometimes a great project will show up with the best news in a good moment
for now, all we need is increase our patience

Need a community manager for this kind of role, to keep in touch with your community and users.

I completely agree with you. There is a community Manager (craslovell https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=122434). That would be very useful if he give a bit more update or communicate a bit more here.

I am patient, but to avoid an 'uprising', similar as we have due to the lack of update before the snapshot.... Otherwise I don't really mind, FUD would be useful for me to buy HLM cheaper that the real value.

[sirazimuth]

The radio silence could simply be a waiting out of all this bitcoin forking business as
it's fast becoming a huge distraction to new projects such as these.No news is good news folks.
Fear not as they (the devs) are no doubt busy aligning ducks,crossing t's,dotting i's,etc....
You get one chance at a successful coin launch,and I have full faith the Helium team are
making sure this one goes off without a hitch and will be one of the most successful this year .
I have confidence this coin will explode when it hits the market(s).
 So hang tight everyone.Your patience will be rewarded.

Are you retarded? It's in a few weeks.

[WeedGoW]

Is there an active HELIUM airdrop going on? I see many of user here have a signature with HELIUM logo and such.

Releasing after the fork is probably the smartest idea IMO

[jchi2210]

How long do you guys figure it will be until you can trade Helium and mine it? Just curious.

Soon as you can mine it I am switching my d3s over to it!

[Steven3iii]

It will be a good coin, even with the x11 blizzard. Spreadcoin is actually still picking up too after being dumped. It is still an active coin as well.

Cross-post from the Helium slack channel:


Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to make some formal introductions today as well as pass along some news on the network: The Helium team is growing and with the launch of the network right around the corner, it is time to introduce to the community some of the faces who will be representing Helium out in the real-world for us. The following is only the public-facing team members, we have several team members and contributors who for various reasons will not be public facing at this time


Founders:

@coins101 (I will let him add in this part on his own when ready)

Coins background is well known within the cryptocurrency community. He has worked on Dash (Darkcoin at the time) and not only helped influence the name 'Dash' but also contributed heavily in the technical realm. He moved over to Spreadcoin soon after and his vision for Spread eventually found its way to Helium. Coins is the main architect on the Helium team and serves as one of the leading minds in the world of cryptoeconomics. He also has a background working with Enterprise customers which makes for a natural fit for Helium.



@karmashark - Jason Cassidy

My background is in managing people, technologies and communications I left BlackBerry in 2012 and soon after entered into the blockchain industry. I have worked on several blockchain projects in the past and currently act as the vice chairman of the board for the Blockochain Association of Canada. I also advise World governments on cryptocurrency regulations and founded Crypto Consultant and Blockchain TV. With Helium, I use my knowledge of cryptoeconomics to assist @coins101 on developing out the structure of the network. A lot of the high level strategy is handled between the two founders based on their prior experience working in the Enterprise world for decades.




Chief Communications Officer
@bitcoinkw - Steve Wand

Steve comes from a background in commercial banking at TD Bank, one of the "Big 5" banks in Canada. Steve has been involved in the blockchain industry for many years and is avid Bitcoin and cryptocurrency evangelist.  Outside of managing one of Canada first Bitcoin ATM's, Steve is passionate about education and is an active presence at many blockchain conferences. Steve will be travelling the globe representing Helium at many prominent conferences as well as assisting with Enterprise partnerships, something he has been doing professionally for many years now.




Operations Manager - Africa and the Middle East
@ra - Roland Alexander

Roland will be responsible for all operational duties for Helium in Africa and the UAE. Both regions represent tremendous growth potential for blockchain technology, from payments to supply chain. Roland does public speaking on Bitcoin and blockchain technology in Africa and is a well known for his passion for life and professionalism.  Roland will also be speaking for Helium globally when possible and working to grow Helium's influence in his regions.




Community Manager
@craslovell -Chris Lovell

Chris has worked on previous blockchain projects before including Emercoin, helping to bridge the gap between technology and communications. He has conducted professional interviews in the industry, written press releases, reviewed whitepapers, written guides, ran bounty programs, on-boarded new community members and a lot more.  If you need something community based Chris is your point of contact.




Chief Marketing Officer
@cryptoconsultant - James Gonzalez

James entered the blockchain industry in late 2012 and has been an active member since. He is the other founder of Crypto Consultant and Blockchain TV as well as the Treasurer and Secretary for the Blockchain Association of Canada and the Head of the Canadian chapter for Unsung, a decentralized solution to help feed the homeless. James will be in charge of marketing strategy for Helium and brings a world-class work ethic to the team.

Product design with dash similar, but there are more innovative highlights, worthy of attention

Part 2

------------
2. A piece of History - Helium .999 1oz Silver collectors coins

A print run of 100  .999 1oz silver Helium coins were recently commissioned. These are loadable coins that come empty (so you can load the coin with your Helium). This is a collectors item and serves as a numismatic piece. You can order your silver 1oz Helium coin(s) online at the site below. Future print runs are already in negotiations for Helium and previous series issued by the designer have fetched premiums of well over 300% ROI. His coins generally sell well and this is certainly going to help bring more exposure to Helium while creating one hell of a stocking stuffer this Christmas. Check the Silver Helium coins here:

3. Network launch -

Work is coming along very well on testing, mining and the development of the Helium wallet. There are a litany of potential issues that can come up during the launch of a network like ours so it is best practice not to handcuff ourselves to a date (aka deadline). Issues often arise out of the blue and we react to them accordingly. With that said, good progress is being made and at this point there is no reason to think we are going to have any issues opening up the network to the public in due course. The website, new ANN thread graphics and re-done whitepaper are almost ready as well.

I will fall back on what I have echoed before. Anyone can launch a blockchain in a few hours these days if they truly want to get one off the ground. To launch a network of value properly often takes Time, which requires patience. Patience will pay off in the end as we are in this for the long haul. Both @coins101 and myself are not motivated by money, we have been working professionally in established careers for some time now. For us both, Helium represents the opportunity to cement a legacy that will last well beyond our years.

I thank you all for keeping the banter going, the spirits high and the price predictions even higher! You are allowing us to focus on work behind the scenes and we really appreciate the maturity shown here

and i hope the value of Helium will be more than dash in the future,
because this is more than dash

[thesavoyard]

Is there any chance that coins101 will release his real name? I understand his desire for privacy, but for investors, reputation is everything. I think an ambitious project like this needs a face to back it up.

Dash has an amazing roadmap as well. They both are moving in different directions, Dash seeks to be a currency. With the resources Dash puts into research, we can expect the whole cryptocurrency universe to benefit. Cryptos have huge problems with inefficiency, they can't process a huge number of transactions and proof of work requires huge amounts of electricity.

[tanshihui]

I feel that this project is very good, and I'm looking forward to the next step of the team,
 I will continue to pay attention to this project, hope that the team also make unremitting efforts,
earnestly planning and implementation, team refueling!

this is very important on crypto start up at this moment, when the founders show up and has a link to his social media account ex : linkedin, etc
so i hope coins101 will do that not only behind the scene..
