Good day.
So, I created GIL, with a specific purpose in mind. As you all know, FF XIV : A realm reborn, is releasing next month. Now, what is one of the most anoying, tedious parts of playing an MMO? That's right, farming gold.
So, I had this idea. People who hate farming gold, could mine GIL with their CPU's or GPU's, when ever they are not playing FF XIV. They can then go to a website, and exchange it, for Gold. Gold farmers, could than take the GIL, bring it to an exchange, and trade it for BTC. People would buy the GIL from the exchange, and trade it for FFXIV gold. Rinse, repeat. This elimates a lot of the problems with buying MMO gold, with real money. It also brings a new crowd, into the crypto community.
Who doesn't want to make gold, for their favorite game, while away from their PC?
And it doesn't have to stop there, more games could be implicated, as we go along.
This is a huge endeavor. Not something I can really do, all by myself. I need team members. Anyone who believes in such a project, and would like to make it a reality, please, PM me, and join the GIL team.
I need programmers, web designers, marketers, ect.

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Why not just mine bitcoins when you're offline and give bitcoins to farmers and skip the middleman?

Or even better, merged mine bitcoins, namecoins, devcoins, groupcoins, coiledcoins, ixcoins, i0coins and geistgeld all at once and trade them all in for gold?
Or even keep the bitcoins to pay the electric bill and trade the others in for gold?

Same reason everyone is in this forum to begin with? Because BTC is over taken by ASIC's. And we are talking final fantasy fans, who are UN familialiar with Crypto. You don't think buying GIL with GIL would appeal to their nostalgia? |

This. The idea that a coin is needed for every particular activity is silly. |

Same reason everyone is in this forum to begin with? Because BTC is over taken by ASIC's. And we are talking final fantasy fans, who are UN familialiar with Crypto. You don't think buying GIL with GIL would appeal to their nostalgia? Have you taken a poll of how many ASIC users merge ALL the coins? You could add in GIL as a new merged coin and virtually none of the ASIC people would add it into their merge. But no need, just hack a copy of p2pool to write you a list of which users would have earned how much bitcoin instead of actually having it send the bitcoin, send them gold instead in game, and pocket all the bitcoin and other merged coins yourself. Call the pool GILpool or something for their nostalgia's sake. -MarkM- |

because bitcoin was a starter it is not the messiah of cryptos!!!!! please stop encouraging that line of thinking, it goes against the core values we all believe in. Also bitcoin is becoming obsolete, it takes too long to transfer funds. |

This. The idea that a coin is needed for every particular activity is silly. More: it is utterly silly, it totally defines the purpose of money! The whole point of money is acting as a common base unit... |

If this gets into the Final Fantasy crowd, SquareEnix will find out and you're going to get sued for profiting off of a trademarked name. The second any exchange adds it, you can kiss them and their entire website goodbye
If you don't think it's copyrighted, then you need to reread up on the subject, particularly the part that says "all names copyright SquareEnix"
They don't have to list every individual word they have under their Intellectual Property Protection

The word GIL is not trademarked, I looked, nor is the likeness of a giant yellow bird. I guess CAPs should probably watch out? |

Chocobos and their likeness are also covered, yes. They have already sued people over the chocobo name and image. I couldn't care less if you think you're right, but you're not. I warned you, that's all I care to do. I just hope no exchange is stupid enough to try and fight a multi-billion dollar company in legal battles |

Now, I'm not forcing GIL on you, and it does have some interest from the community, so, if you don't have anything productive to add, kindly fuck off. |

Lol, I just warned you on your biggest obstacle, but again, you take the side of stupid. Back to ignore with you, I guess |
