Indeed, here's some of what we are cooking up!
Announcement: Popular Coin is Teaming up With Popology Networks http://www.popologynetworks.com
And Working together on Creating a New Media Viewing Platform that will Pay its Participants in Popular Coins!!
You get Paid For watching your favorite shows via a Web TV Platform!! (se la vie to cable tv)
We have just solidified the Merge with Popology and are working on this New Platform that we are hoping to release in the near future.
We will Keep You Updated, here is an image to signify the merge, we are still polishing it off, but this is where we are Heading!http://i354.photobucket.com/albums/r438/PopularCoinPOP/popPOPSpin_zpsvn1gzapx.gifCongratulations on the merger!
Will this be a decentralized or centralized service? The YouTube killer will be decentralized and built on blockchain technology with financial incentives for both posting content, reviewing (liking, sharing, etc.) content, as well as rewards for sharing the app itself so more people join the network... Will be interested to see what you guys develop; any timeline for the project?
Well, originally the idea was to hook up with a Single Web TV Platform to generate the payout for watching, etc,..
After working the idea some more, and how exactly we will implement it, what we may do is basically create a widget that the different web tv/ media providers can add to their website to give their viewers Popular Coins for using their service.
Any media provider can then fill a wallet with coins to payout to their viewers.
So, it most likely will not be centralized.
However, the first media provider that we have talked with
http://lookhu.com/ seems very interested in the concept!!
Because we are not funded there is a potential of a provider buying out the exclusive rights for their website and thus it would be centralized,..
Unfortunately the Popular Coin Project is not currently funded and would do a lot better if it was funded.
We dont want to be too loud about this either because we know that another coin may steal the idea or implement something similar which has happened quite a few times with POP concepts.
Either way, we are working as much as we can on creating the widget and eventually it will be implemented.
We also at some point will have a really nice rework of the code where we will create a way for those media providers to get a certain amount of free coins and most likely get some Proof of Stake going on, may even do a redistribution which would also give us the open door to create the Gold POP chain,..
So, we have big plans, lots to do, and will just have to be patient for everything to get developed and play out.
Any Donations help, really to develop the project the way it needs to, we need at least 5 to 25 bitcoin,..
POP did not have an IPO or a Premine so we have really suffered (in a way) because of that.
The best way for anyone to buy into the project and help with dev is to trade for the coin and donate to dev., I haven't been too pressing about asking for donations, but they would help a lot. Right now the price of POP is much lower than many IPO coins and Premine coins, so in reality its a much better buy,.. For example, if we had some bs IPO and made even 20 bitcoin, we would already have much of this implemented.
I can dev but I am no master dev, I am best at communication and I am learning more about dev everyday, Eventually the Project will make it to the point of having all of this together, we do have a team in place, all of us are very busy with just making ends meet, we eventually will get all of this together, it will just take time.
Thanks for asking,
As far as decentralization goes, Hopefully we can get funded before we give (sell) the exclusive rights away, if we can get a smoothly working version of the widget or app together before we connect with a media provider then we can certainly contact all web media providers!
The widget is going to need connect with a media player and base a payout on the amount of time the media is being viewed, so the provider can set it to 1 coin per minute or 5 coins per minute and then fill a wallet themselves try to do the widget with spinning POP image and the amount of coins you have earned at the bottom, pretty simple,.. either you have an account on that website that holds your amount of coins until you withdraw or, we could even have a signup at popularcoin.com where the coin amount data could be stored, its going to have to be secure and the whole nine yards so the whole program will be pretty dense.
