DNotes 2.0 - Staking, CRISP Interest, DNotes Pay

[DNotesEDU]

I like the fact that a coin like NANO that has a very similar message on their front page of their website is growing. They also have a circulating amount of 133M coins. So when we finally get some funds and get started I would imagine that we would grow just as well with proper advertising not just word of mouth and when we get on a popular exchange that fits our liking and has many customers. Exciting times ahead hopefully sooner than later.  When you hear about other companies getting millions in funding in a weekend and see other companies grow fast it's hard to sit back and take it in as we wait patiently. I have read many of you say PATIENCE is key. I will continue to be patient, but we also have to support each other with positive comments when one of us get down watching the bus leave the station without us daily. Just venting and probably saying what others are afraid to say. That's why this is an open forum and a safe place to vent. Hopefully!

You raise some fair points The Chezz. I'm sure any of us in this community would be lying if we said we haven't had a hard time being patient every once in a while. We all have our own personal reasons to be impatient sometimes, but what is important is that we always focus on moving toward our end goal of becoming the trusted global digital currency. In a recent conversation with Alan, he told me that it is often better to do nothing than to do the wrong thing. He couldn't be more right. At times when a person is frustrated it is best just to walk away for a while, as opposed to being counter productive or destructive. If every step we take is a step forward, always progressing toward our goal of becoming the trusted global digital currency, nobody can stop us.

You're quite right Chezzz. Nano was a project that took some time for people to notice, and when it did it had its month in the sunshine. DNotes is happy to get all the attention it can, but the preference is of course to mitigate harmful attention from whales where havoc can come to the market, meanwhile growing the use case of our ecosystem. This forum has always been one of the more encouraging in the crypto-space, but questions will always be important to get us all onto the same page and working towards common goals.

Alan Yong Presents at Emerge ICO Summit.

You want to help change the world? Watch this. We can no longer invest, contribute, and think in isolation. With full deployment of G5 cell phone (up 25x faster than the current G4  LTE) 90% of the world's population  will have connectivity by 2027. 

Yes, we are becoming a single digitized world. Micro payments (DNotes Pay) Micro Investments (Regulated ICO), integrated ecosystems, and integrated applications (the foundation of Smart Cities) is the future and the biggest generational opportunities for all. DNotes will lead and we will not be short of partners. DNotes, a sleeping giant, will lead and be the money of the future. It’s time to check it out. We are always moving forward. Don't miss the train.

I didn't want to copy and add all of the responses I received from my little tantrum . I would like to thank each and everyone of you who did respond and say all of the encouraging remarks that probably didn't only keep me motivated but many others with the same questions and thoughts. That is why I'm excited about being part of this group. Not only do you keep us informed, you answer all of our questions and concerns. You also assist with our digital problems when we are in distress. This team is above reproach and will lead the way to the top. I am retired from the U.S. Army and have been teaching leadership classes for the last 12 years and everything I see here on a daily basis is exactly what we teach. Keep up the great work and we will reach the top. Even the best get a little frazzled some times. It's how you recover that is the key to success. IMHO!

That is excellent. Thank you, The Chezzz.

I am here for the good days and the challenging ones. I trust that many see it the same way.  And by the way, I love the military. A sincere thank you for your services.  You may appreciate the following quote from my book:

“Quest for the Best

No company ever becomes best in class by accident. You must position your business to achieve that status, and that is a mission of such size and scope that you simply cannot accomplish it without implementing winning strategies. All of this represents the type of serious commitment that will require the utmost focus, discipline, patience, persistence, tenacity, and leadership skills if you are to be successful. And yes, those are the principles and traits that Jim Collins identified in his book “Good to Great.” He found them all in abundance among level 5 leaders and referred to this philosophy of duality as the Stockdale Paradox - a reference to the late Vice Admiral James Stockdale’s coping strategy during his imprisonment in a POW camp during the Vietnam War.

Stockdale had described the mental state that it took to survive the camps as one that recognized the importance of recognizing your current challenges while still maintaining the focus, discipline, patience, persistence, and tenacity needed to maintain faith in your own vision for success.

That is the essential trait of leadership that is all too often lacking in the business world today. It is a principle that recognizes that leaders choose to recognize the blunt and brutal facts of their reality, but never lose sight of their belief that the right team and strategy, skillfully executed, can ensure that they prevail when all is said and done.”

This is just a short quote from what I often referred as the “DNotes Handbook” or “Improve Your Odds – The Four Pillars of Business Success.”

Hey Chezzzz, well we always welcome people's questions -- one of the big things that we have set out to achieve from the outset is to create a cultural environment that people feel comfortable in, one where no reasonable question is considered too simple or inappropriate. After all, an environment that doesn't focus on such an environment, would be, in the words of Jocko Willink, who has a similar background to yourself:

“If frontline troops are unclear about the plan and yet are too intimidated to ask questions, the team’s ability to effectively execute the plan radically decreases.”
- Jocko Willink, retired Seal 1 vet, and leadership coach

And thus, we are clear about our vision, mission, and objectives with our community wherever possible.

In this fast moving industry, there have been countless new challenges to overcome, and numerous unexpected setbacks that result from circumstances often outside of our control or decisions made by other parties that have been painful to stomach, and even demotivating as they stalled our forward momentum. But we are not working diligently fueled by motivation alone, but by a disciplined commitment to achieving our vision. As Alan says in the quotation from his book he posted above, traits like focus, discipline, patience, persistence, and tenacity have been observed to prevail when it comes to commonalities among successful people. They are all tightly-linked traits, which I think can broadly come under, or are at least related to the over-arching category of discipline.


“Don’t expect to be motivated every day to get out there and make things happen. You won’t be. Don’t count on motivation. Count on discipline.”
- Jocko Willink

Just a quick question.

If you withdraw dnotes from the vault to your local wallet how long does it usually take? more than 1 hour?

Just a quick question.

If you withdraw dnotes from the vault to your local wallet how long does it usually take? more than 1 hour?

Hi cryptohunter, 24-48 hours for a withdrawal to be released from the DNotesVault. In some cases additional verification maybe be required, which can extend that timeframe. The DNotesVault was created for long term storage with the highest level of protection, which makes the process take longer than something like an exchange that uses hot wallets for instant transfer. We use a cold storage process along with manual review to help ensure the safety of your account and security of your coins. For smaller amounts or quick access to your coins, we recommend our electrum (lite wallet) or full qt wallet.

[DNotes]

Wondering what DNotes is all about? Here’s the basics:

What is DNotes?
•   DNotes is a digital currency with a purpose: to serve as a real currency that people can use in their daily lives - unlike other digital currencies that focus on solving niche problems, with no plan to become a real, usable currency.
•   The DNotes goal is simple: achieve mass adoption and become the world’s first accessible, inclusive, and financially empowering digital currency that benefits everyone around the globe.

What are DNotes’ Benefits as a Currency?
•   DNotes is managed as a business – but not controlled as one.
•   DNotes success is driven by a profit-generating company, DNotes Global, created to promote mass adoption, protect the currency, and ensure sustainable growth.
•   DNotes’ unique CRISP savings program rewards DNotes owners with 0.5% interest, every month
•   DNotes offers staking rewards for stakeholders – at 2% a year.
•   DNotes provides blockchain invoicing features to simplify merchant acceptance and adoption of the digital currency.

What Benefits Does DNotes Global Provide?
DNotes Global protects DNotes and its stakeholders, promotes mass adoption, and creates value and utility for the digital currency, including a fully integrated ecosystem.
The company provides a unique cross-ownership model, with DNotes owning 25% of DNotes Global (pre-dilution), while the for-profit business maintains a stake in the digital currency.
DNotes Global generates profit, creating intrinsic value for the DNotes currency to help create a “floor” for the digital currency’s value.
DNotes Global has plans to build a long-term competitive advantage by offering services that utilize DNotes. That strategy will also help to facilitate awareness and adoption of the DNotes currency.
Long term competitive advantage DNotes Global will provide in offering services that utilize DNotes.

What’s Next?
Fully compliant Reg D 506 (c) crowdfunding followed by a Reg A+ Mini-IPO.

DNotes 2.0 Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is new with DNotes 2.0?

A: DNotes 2.0 is a major improvement on the original DNotes blockchain. The new blockchain will allow DNotes and its partner company DNotes Global to achieve its objective to connect DNotes to the modern world of finance and commerce. The new blockchain is faster, more secure, and consumes only a fraction of the electricity. It also allows custom invoices to be created and attached to transactions, and changes the economic incentives of the network to one that encourages savings with the switch to the Proof-Of-Stake algorithm, and paying 0.5% interest on balances that haven’t moved from a wallet address in a 30 day period (~6% per annum).

There will be a soft deadline where DNotes mined after that block will not be redeemable for 2.0 coins:
4/16/2018
Block# 2180897
133,574,552 Will be the total swappable amount of DNotes we create
+20,000,000 Allocated to DNotes Global, Inc for Development & Growth Fund
153,574,552 Total DNotes 2.0 Created

The next update (TBD) will include:
Deferred Staking

Q: How do I swap my coins? (after April 16th)

A: The DNotes coin swap process will now be done through a private fork of the legacy DNotes blockchain. We have created this fork to ensure that legacy DNotes holders are still able to swap their legacy DNotes for DNotes 2.0 long after the deadline, in the event they missed the swap. This also ensures we will not be accepting newly purchased or mined DNotes, protecting our users and network.

In order to swap your coins, you will need the following DNotes v1.3 wallet, which you can download here:
http://dnotescoin.com/DNotes/dnotes-qt1-3.zip
You will need to copy your wallet.dat or wallet backup file to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\DNotes1-3 directory, open the wallet application and allow it to update.
Next, you will need an address to send your legacy DNotes in to for the coin swap, you can generate a legacy address with the following instructions:
Create a DNotesVault.com account if you don’t already have one.
Login to your DNotesVault.com account, and click the HISTORIC tab at the top.
Click Create Address, and send your DNotes to the address you just created.

Coin swaps will be processed once a month until further notice.

Q: What is the cutoff date for mined DNotes that can be swapped to the new DNotes blockchain?

A: We have set April 16th 2018 as the soft deadline. No DNotes mined after this date will be eligible to be swapped to DNotes running on the new blockchain. We will continue swap DNotes after that date, however the process will not be as easy and will take more time. Any DNotes 1.x purchased on exchanges after the 16th will not be eligible for the swap.

Q: Will DNotes 2.0 be listed on new exchanges?

We are currently listed on:
https://mercatox.com/exchange/NOTE/BTC
https://stocks.exchange/trade/NOTE/BTC
https://www.nlexch.com/markets/notebtc
https://bitebtc.com/trade/note_btc

Beta or Future Exchanges we are working with:
https://blockbid.io/

Q: Are the new DNotes 2.0 coins worth the same as the old coins?

A: Yes, they are worth exactly the same. However we can not predict what price movements will occur at exchanges once DNotes is relisted using the new coins.

Q: I have Mac or Specific Linux OS, will there be wallets for these?  

A: Yes!
We currently have Windows / Mac / Linux Mint / Ubuntu Desktop wallets at DNotesCoin.com. If you need something else, please let us know.

Q: Where is the block explorer?

A: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/note/


Staking

Q: What is Staking?

A: Staking your coins helps to support the DNotes network, and the network currently pays out roughly 5 DNotes every minute to one address on the network based on a probability that centers on how many coins the user is staking with as a percentage of the total number of coins being staked on the network. The DNotes network pays out ~2% of the total number of coins per annum. If 100% of DNotes were being used to stake on the network, then by probability each user could expect 2% growth in the number of coins they have. If only 50% of coins are used to stake, then those users could expect approximately 4% growth that year.

Q: Can I stake my coins on the DNotesVault?

A: You cannot currently stake your coins that are on the DNotesVault, you will need to withdraw your DNotes 2.0 to a local wallet and stake your coins from your local wallet. We will in a future release incorporate cold staking, which will allow you stake your coins while they are safely tucked away inside the DNotesVault. However, we do not have an ETA, it will be one of our highest priorities for next upgrades.

Q: How do I stake?

Disclaimer: It is recommended that you properly secure your computer and wallet, as well as make proper backups, before attempting to run your own staking wallet. Failure to properly secure your DNotes may result in loss or theft. If you are not familiar with the process, please start off small and familiarize yourself with the process.

You will need to download the DNotes QT wallet here: http://dnotescoin.com/#Download

Install the wallet (and we recommend creating a backup, after encrypting your wallet)
Go to settings, and then ‘encrypt wallet’. Enter your password twice (and do NOT forget it, or you will not be able to access the wallet and we can not help you).
Go to settings, and then ‘unlock wallet’, enter your password, and select “for staking only”. This will prevent any transfers from being made from your wallet without the password while you stake your coins.
Soon the arrow at the bottom will turn green. This means that your coins are now staking.
   
Video: https://youtu.be/bR66LWPRzAU

Q: How do I get the most out of my staking efforts?

A: There is no trick to staking efficiently. The factors involved are your coin weight versus the network coin weight and coin weight is the number of coins currently staking. The age does not matter, nor does how you divide or move your coins around.

Q: How much can I earn staking?

A: That depends on how many coins you are staking and how many coins are being staked on the network. The blockchain distributes Current Total Coins / 525,600 * 0.02 every block, or every 60 seconds. You may calculate how often you are chosen to receive the block reward by dividing your network weight verse your weight. If network weight is 100, and your weight is 5, then you would be chosen for block reward 5 blocks out of every 100.



CRISP

Q: Can I get CRISP reward AND stake at the same time?

A: Yes, the system is designed to allow you to receive CRISP on a wallet you are staking

Q: What is the CRISP reward structure?

A: CRISP periods are every 43,200 blocks (30 day target). Payments start 10,080 blocks (1 week target) from the end of the CRISP period.

Q: What do I need to do to earn CRISP?

A: Keep your coins in the same address for the full CRISP period 30 days, set every 43,200 blocks.

Q: When will I receive CRISP payments?

A: The next payouts are as follows:

May 1 - Ends first CRISP period.
May 8 - Payout starts. (Virtually no one will receive this payout)
June 2 - Ends second CRISP period
June 10 - Payout starts

Roughly.

Q: Do I get CRISP payments at the DNotesVault?

A: Yes! You get CRISP inside the DNotesVault, or at any address you control, such as a Desktop wallet. Though I won't suspect you will be able to get CRISP rewards from the exchanges or other online providers.

Q: Where do the CRISP coins come from?

A: The blockchain, these are newly created coins and have now become part of the new coin distribution, just like the staking reward.

Q: How do I earn the interest reward?

A: Our Cryptocurrency Investment Savings Plan (CRISP) payouts occur approximately once per month. All coins that haven’t moved address during that month period will accrue a 0.5% interest, which compounds to roughly 6.17% per annum. If you move your coins during that time, those coins will not receive the interest for that month.

I have posted the below video in our forum in the past, and today I wanted to draw attention to it again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW8amMCVAJQ

You’re at an outdoor concert. There he is. We all know that guy, dancing like no one is watching, doing his own thing. He doesn't care what anyone else thinks. Meanwhile everyone else around him is sitting, not wanting to engage with him, not wanting to seem weird and worried what everyone else will say.

After a short time, maybe 20 seconds, someone else takes a chance and starts dancing with this guy. They’re over their shyness now, equals dancing away, doing their own thing. Slowly, but surely others pick up on this and start dancing too. Eventually there’s a crowd dancing and all those people sitting down rush to join in, wanting to fit in and be popular, not wanting to be left out

Those first few people who join in dancing with the first guy are crucial - the early adopters. As the video says "everyone needs to see the followers, because new followers emulate followers - not the leader" and "the best way to make a movement is to courageously follow and show others how to follow."

Now, if you agree with me, and believe in the clear and logical vision DNotes has laid out and is committed to, there are a lot of things you can do to be a supportive early adopter. It can be as simple as posting, liking and commenting regularly in our online community forums, telegram, and other social media. You can buy Alan's book, which explains the philosophy and strategies behind DNotes Global, or listen to the 50 cent audio version. These are wholly owned by DNotes Global. and reading it. An honest review on Amazon could encourage many unsure observers still sitting down to get up and dance, leading them to DNotes.

We are making DNotes a global digital currency suitable for mainstream adoption. We are a community project of volunteers devoting our full-time attention and personal capital to make our vision a reality. Our immediate objectives include getting DNotes Global funded, actively exploring partnerships that will benefit us, and getting listed on at least one major exchange. This will allow us to rapidly scale. In terms of exchange, we have done our research and reduced our wish-list to ten (and yes, that includes  everyone's favorites Binance and Bittrex).

Community is important to us, as it will be to those doing their due diligence on us as well. Followers encourage more followers and momentum. I encourage all our supporters to stand with us however you can as we prepare to blast off once our immediate goals are in place. Will you sit on the sidelines, or are you going to come and dance?

I understand for security reasons for sure.. Yes I had just moved them there to make sure they were swapped to dnotes2

I was just getting around to setting up a dnotes2 full node to stake them so will need to withdraw them from the vault.

Thanks for answer I will know to wait 24-48 hours in future.

Great job, Tim. I remember seeing this video a few years ago. It’s a great video – very inspirational and applicable to DNotes’ situation. In our case, it may be even harder to connect the dots. But once enough people do, it will quickly move to the phase of “fear of missing out”.  Meanwhile, there is a role for everyone in our community.

Maybe a little bit off topic, but still relevant somehow: today I was watching documentary Inside Job https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1645089/ I do not know if any of you have seen it or not, but I would highly recommend watching it.

It is about the last financial crisis and the corruption in the financial "industry". I always know it is present, but the level of corruption that is revealed in the documentary was beyond me And also how high it reaches, and that even SEC is not immune to it. After watching it you will have even more reasons not to trust banks That is also one of the reasons why cryptocurrency is so important and MUST play even bigger role in the future.

I actually haven't seen it, I may watch it very soon. I did quite enjoy the movie "The Big Short" which was a more theatrical version.

I was paying close attention to what unfolded just before, during, and after the crash having been a huge fan of a diverse range of economists and thinkers (like Peter Schiff and Australia's Steve Keen). While they came from different schools of economic thought, there were many insightful observations that were made about 1. the problems with economics as a science, 2. the issue of Keynesian ideas prevailing in academia and our financial institutions, and 3. their bleak outlook of the near future.

Personally holding the view that the finance industry is 'broken' is what got me into cryptocurrency in the first place. An opportunity for people to take their financial futures into their own hands. Even if it's more volatile in the near future, I prefer something that isn't controlled by other people and has the potential to be fair for all players.

We are working very hard behind the scenes to build mutually beneficial partnerships and strategize with amazing people to expand quickly in both internal and external capacities. I am getting the sense that more and more the digital currency industry is gaining recognition and legitimacy rapidly in the rest of the world, playing a major role in the future of finance.

Also, the DNotesPay payment gateway plugin for WooCommerce is nearly completed, we are in the final testing stages and it's looking great so far.
