[ANN] [PRE ICO LIVE] CellBlocks: An Economy for Inmates in the Prison System

[HerrHeimlich]

Is there any interest or confirmed trials with any prisons?

The first state we gave a presentation to is looking at installing it in two of their Facilities for the pilot program.  We are meeting with 2 more states in the next month.

That is already a huge milestone. For them to be considering it so heavily is promising. I can't wait until you guys set in stone the first pilot prisons and start working to get it functional. I think that is going to blow people's minds who are underestimating this project.

Have you guys tried getting this project in front of any large news media? Seems like a really interesting idea. Forbes might be interested.

I am waiting till we get our first contract with a state.  Then it will be easy beans to get all the press we want at no cost.

Smart thinking. I think that's the best way to go. Much cheaper too.

Thanks for that information! I'm getting signed up today.

Here you go.   https://medium.com/p/5e5f1c67da4a .  We will be starting it next weekend

Do you have a bounty campaign (signature, social media, telegram, etc)? I am excited to buy some CLBK tokens but sadly it's not going to be available until April

Did you guys ever get a bounty thread going here? Looks like the article linked is gone.

I am still wondering about this. Idk if it ever got released, but if it did can someone link it?

This is what we have running now.

I've been looking at CellBlocks for a long time, and it's very creative, and I'm looking forward to it.

[GoBelle]

It looks like a lot of people have recently become interested in Cellblocks from the amount of traffic and all that I keep hearing of it. I think it is apparent that the level of effort the team is putting into getting this project adopted in prisons is actually paying off. I'm happy to see it and I can't wait for the future of Cellblocks. I think many people will be surprised at the success. Good work so far.

This project does not really make sense imho. How can prisioner can use smartphone or laptop to login into their wallet?

Maybe you need to look into the project,  it's all layed out and makes sense to the rest of us who take the time to read it.

[thinklab71]

Will prisoners need access to smart devices in order to use CellBlocks? I'm interested in learning how it works on the prisoner side.

No they will use a kiosk based system like this one where they can login to their desktop account and there will be their wallet to use.

That kiosk looks legit. I think the idea for a kiosk was pretty smart and definitely more sturdy than just having a computer.

This is how

[MarkThief]

This project looks pretty interesting. I'm thankful to see that someone is trying to create a better, safer, and more transparent economy for prisoners. You would be surprised at how horribly corrupt the current system is. I think it is a really good idea for a project and it looks very well put together.

[Shoesouse]

I am surprised I have not heard of Cellblocks until now. This is a revolutionary project. How did you guys come up with it?

[cellblocks]

We have family members who work in the prison system and started talking over pizza and beer one night.  My cousin said, it would be cool if inmates could use crypto for their daily transactions and the light came one.

After reading the information posted here on the sakyt, I realized that the problem of the safety of the money of prisoners exists. Prisoners are also people and they need help, they are already punished. I hope that this project will solve the problem with the safety of the money of prisoners.

prison, this is not very good, but also there is need for support) I believe that this project will help zakdyuchennym)

[cryptoman2.0]

This is a total scam, there the same guys the ICO concoin, these guys left the concoin and are now ico this cellblock.
Check the address on there website, it a UK PO BOX WITH 3670 Company's register there, check the linkedin the people that are claimed to be involved have nothing to do with this scam.
I do like there sence of humour, releasing the coin on April fools day......https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkfV6wJnzh0&feature=youtu.be

That is a huge step forward for prisoners. Not that Cellblocks relies on tablets because you guys plan to install kiosks. But, is there going to be Cellblocks support for tablets as well?

[grendel25]

Oh man, I can just imagine all the debate about this.  I'll just say I can think of all sorts of things.  I think it can be really positive and restorative.  I can also imagine stuff like this drawing in deeper criminality into the crypto space.  I guess you could argue that either is good and bad.  I'll just go with it.  What else could we do?  It could really spur a lot of good things despite potential downsides.

[joblessminer]

What has been the concentration for Cellblocks in Q1? What should we expect to see in Q2 from this project?

I'm still wondering about the exact things that have been done this quarter and what to expect in Q2.

FAKE AIDDROP, BEWARE

these guys are just farming emails


DELETE THIS MESSAGE NOW, you are corrupted as much as your whole industry! SHAME ON YOU! AND SHAME ON ADMINS FOR DELETING THIS POST OF MINE.

Do you have any proof for this statement? Because it seems pretty unlikely.

He is upset about the Airdrop, I guess you can't please 100% of the people 100% of the time.

Yeah, that's what I think. It seems like he is just repeating the same thing over and over while everyone else seems pretty happy with the airdrop. You guys are giving away free tokens. What is there to really complain about? lol. I actually thought it was a great deal, had a good experience with it, and didn't see anything he is claiming.

[SemyonKol]

A very interesting and promising project in the prison sector which is a completely new stage in the field of blockchain. Personally, I believe in this project and follow all the news. Good luck!
