Dev, why you dont do azulik erc-20 tokens for donators? Manta dev did it. After release wallet we will change tokens for coins.

You should at least provide github code. So that everyone can see the progress of the project. Without providing zero proof of work the project actually exist. donations are risky. All I can see 90% users commenting on this thread is newbies.
i have been reading these forums daily for a year now. I have never felt the need to comment on threads, I have merely used my time here to gauge interest in projects/coins. It’s only now that I have to message somebody that I have had to join. That makes me a noob in your eyes I suppose . I know several others that have done the same to join this project too.

devs can we please get a countdown on the final day for donation fund, looking to put some more in but dont really want to miss it, also another tally for the total btc raised, as im thinking its gone up a little since the last reading, by my rough calcs we have around 1.5-2mill mcap now? its important to know for investors.
The only countdown that we need is when the code will be available in github, after that then I reckon the donation need a countdown IMHO>. Hi TheTenIsDog , please be aware that this is a pre-announcement, and the full code will be released alongside testnet. For those who may be wary but wish to invest, please wait for initial release and purchase Stone on an exchange.
felixandoI'll donate on February 7th, close to your release as I followed your project since beginning. Keep up the good work, and if you need, I'll be able to help with the French whitepaper translation

@felixando, I was just wondering since you are the main developer of Stone and you seem to want to protect your intellectual property (which you have every right to do) have you considered patenting your code say if it ends up being far different from the XRB/Zsnarks platform? I'm only asking because I have seen the creators of Hashgraph begin to license their product even though it goes against the whole open-source code transparency model introduced by bitcoin. Swirlds obviously wants to capitalize on companies who might want to use their code, would you do the same?

This is an interesting idea! That move will surely degrade the reputation of this project if it is followed. We can't deny that most of the codes will be based from Raiblocks/Zsnarks codebase and patenting a code which is based from those won't help the project in anyway and i'm sure Felix is definitely against that idea.

I don´t think many will use or even give it a chance with a closed source. No matter in the beginning, but after a decent time the codebase should be public, if not from the beginning. It helps to have some projects and apps build on it too

I think the codebase should be public too. A closed source violates the original intention of the establishment of the digital currency system.

How is the BTC and XRB distribution going to work? I believe it makes sense if it is proportional to the amount of BTC/XRB submitted for this destribution and not the total amounts of BTC and XRB in existence. In this way you can destibute quickly and without additional questions what to do with unclaimed coins etc.

I think open source is necessary for a number of reasons.
1. Trust, I want to see that the code is well written and reliable. With closed source, we would never know if there was either a deliberate undesirable bit of code or an accidental bug that got missed and that will show up later. 2. Continuity, if something happened to the developer of the code or maybe he just lost interest, we would be left high and dry and no improvement could be made and no fixes could be applied. 3. Perception, if it is felt that the developer is simply trying to control everything and not responsive, the community will break down and the coin will ultimately fail.
That said, I'm pretty sure it was stated that the code would be released once it is completed. I fully understand that since having people picking through your unfinished code and pointing to things you already know about is not fun. I also gives the flexibility to change direction part way through without a whole lot of decenting voices.
I am looking forward to the launch of testnet and really hope I will be allowed to participate. I want to get involved in this project in any way I can. I think this promises to be the perfect coin, RaiBlocks with privacy, just what is needed. I am ready to increase my donation nearer to the close off time and look forward to getting my hands on some of these coins to play with.
Felixandro, please let us know near the close off time for donations the value at that point in time of the donations. Thank you for developing this coin.
