I have a cracking idea but know very little about crypto currencies

I have been sitting on a good idea for a few years now and would like to share the idea for comments but I'm worried that someone will do it themselves. Is there any way of protecting the idea?

Everyone thinks whatever idea they have to be some magical rocket science, but in most of the case it turns out to be something silly in true sense. Not disheartening you, maybe the one you are sitting on is a gold mine You need not divulge the complete details, but can give a broad outlook and seek other's opinion.

What did you do on that few years and didn't gained any idea about cryptocurrencies?

If the proposal and idea is unique based on your own view then no matter how you shared it, still the good and better version will be on you. Trust your judgement and try to challenge the world than being worried.

It is a funny thing that you have been sitting on the idea for years and still there is no implementation? If you can get copyright in someway, you may can protect your product, but it may be impossible to protect the idea as anything in this world have similar copies. There is no 2 bitcoin, there is no 2 ethereum, but people could create similar crypto but not plagiarized all the codes.

Your idea is worth nothing if you don't have the right people behind you to implement it. Either put up $ and hire someone to make your idea a reality, or figure out your value ON TOP of just providing an idea, then find a tech (or a few) to join you.

Knowledge is nothing unless it is shared. So find someone to finance your idea or finance it yourself. However there is risk that they will steal your idea.
If it turns out good and you can find someone you can trust ,also will finance your idea. Maybe you will become the next Bill Gates of microsoft or Jack Ma of alibaba.

yeah, this is true and as the saying said " action speaks louder than words " in other words your idea is usless no matter how good or bright it was as long as you put an effort or work on it. dont be afraid to try and try because youl never know that you will succed if you dont. so gudluck and i hope your starting to pull off a good team to start your promising project.

People really do tend to overestimate how good their ideas are. Its better to start by telling everyone what your idea is and let them tell you why its not a good idea.

There's a 90% chance that your idea is already considered no good by someone else, or if it was really good, it will still fail.

I have an idea to disrupt the way society has organized and structured around central power for thousands of years.

I admit, that's a pretty big idea.  It's going to take a lot of work, and a reasonably long time frame.  So I'm breaking it up into manageable chunks.  Lots of them.  Fortunately, there are many others also working on some of these chunks -- better than I could in some cases -- so, I can focus on other areas that need attention and integrate those in later.

But for now, I sleep.  Tomorrow is Friday, after all.

Ideas are fair game no matter how dear they are to your heart.

You can go about this in two ways. You can increase your knowledge of crypto and execute it yourself, you can find someone who already has what it takes and ask them privately.

Throwing it out in public isn't going to do your idea any favours if it's that unique.

After reading this half mocking post, you give the impression that you have realized that your secret idea isnt as good as you first thought it was. Thats good because you will move on into thinking about other ideas which may be more viable.

[cpfreeplz]

Why not just give us the gist of what your idea is? That way we can tell you if it's already been done. It's a big world so sometimes what seems like an amazing original idea ends up being an idea someone else had a while ago and it doesn't pan out.

[akmittal]

Guy you did not show any clue about your idea. It may be away some or a child's dream. First you give some clue about your idea than it may be disclosed how much work had been done in this field. If you have at least bachelor degree in this field of your idea, certainly it may be away some.

Unfortunately just an idea is not bringing a profit to anyone and it doesen't have a price by itself. It is hard to find an ides that never came to anyones mind and i think that you can share it with everyone without any doubts.

Yea, agree, ideas have no value by itself, but idea+action = some result

Good idea for few years but still no action? I think someone will get the same idea as you have soon and they will make a move and you'll regret your action it as long as you live
