[ANN] DopeCoin - DopeCoin is now on Blockfolio Signal

[JohnnyBTCSeed]

Do you have some special info as to why any user would trust the newest silk road? Is this one going to last longer then 1 year? Can you guarantee that it isn't a honeypot? The track record of these centralized dark market sites is poor at best.

Why would any intelligent dark market user not just use open bazaar or nxt free market? Or pay in something like monero?

Or maybe there is no such thing as intelligent dark market user.

but names do have power, otherwise the silk road moniker would have been droped long ago.


Here's a suggestion, if its not already in use, greencoin.  Just rebrand your coin. You might be able to take those bags to the moon, who knows.

tbh I'm interesting in purchasing some but the D-word is a hard selling point--it really makes it sound like it is for hard drugs (depending on what area of the world you're operating from).

Hi ik_do,

I get where you and everyone is coming from , but the D-word can be interpreted in many ways and for a lot of people its just a cool slang word that is used.

An example at least on the American side is ,  it could be said this is a  dope-ass-coin  does that mean its hard drug coin ? lol ...just sayin

Lol, pull up your pants and stop listening to mm, he's gay btw

Again my personal opinion, but I also think the amount of anonymous/guy fawkes masks on the website makes it look a little ridiculous too (feel free to disagree).

Anon. Guy Fawks masks are generally there to give the feeing things are safe and nobody knows what you do with your DopeCoins. At least that is what I think the intentions are  

I know it can be interpreted many ways--that can sometimes be a disadvantage. Given that cannabis legalization is still in its infancy it is difficult to say how different countries would react to different names, so maybe it is something to be discussed in the future rather than now.

I'm actually more put off by the Guy Fawkes mask than the name though.

Agreed.

With anything you take risks. I mean the same questions were asked of Agora , Evolution I'm sure.  I think it will last longer then a year because for one: it is on a new system i2p( granted it not as tested as much ) but I do think "switching it up" will let it go longer

Why would any intelligent dark market user not just use open bazaar or nxt free market? Or pay in something like monero?

Well at the moment there just isn't anything out for that yet. Hopefully, we can change that also.

Or maybe there is no such thing as intelligent dark market user.

Lol be nice

I guess that's just it.  Nobody can tell you what you can do with your coin so you might as well be honest about it and leave the name open for interpretation. I mean look at PotCoin they have had to tell people that they can't use PotCoin for illegal use i.e.,  on SRR for example.  I mean how ridiculous does that sound ?  Should they change their name to legalonlypotcoin . I mean if anything it causes controversy ( as it seems ) so people know about it more.

Good debate though!

Its more a symbol the gov't can get out of our business. You interpret it as hacking ? I mean mostly its associated with via wikipedia: " anti-government and anti-establishment" aka the war on drugs for example. But, I hear what you are saying constructive feedback is always necessary!

LOL trust me I think I would de-friend this person if they actually said that haha...

one thing you'll never hear is someone walking into a dispensary and saying "i'd like some green crack and i 'm going to pay in dopecoin."

Greencrack is deemed to offensive so it was relabled greendream.

Girlscout cookies in colorado is being relabled cause the girlscouts complained.

A northern cali grower was ostricised from the cannabis community after winning a high times cannabis cup with an inappropriately named strain, god's pussy.

Most of the patrons who go to dispensaries are old people, looking for healing.

That is the audience. They grew up with the word dope. Dope to them is derogatory.

I reject political correctness and all forms of Cultural Marxism.   I think I can speak for most of us who have been around here since the beginning that we are all out of fucks to give in regards to whether or not some trendy poseur out in California cries because the coin is called Dopecoin and wets his pants every time he sees a Guy Fawkes mask.   We're hard core anti-establishment people here.  Libertarians, anarchists (not the Marxist kind), rugged individualists, and free thinkers.  We believe in free markets, self-ownership, and personal responsibility.   Dopecoin was intended at its founding as a coin that was useful for both regulated and free (dark) markets to provide an electronic alternative form of payment that retained the anonymity of cash.   The Guy Fawkes mask represents anonymity and revolution, it is a most appropriate symbol to represent the coin.

Every time a group of people rally around a symbol that represents overthrow of the status quo, the establishment seeks to co-opt the grass-roots movement behind it and the sends in the mainstream media to demonize the symbol.

For example:



A symbol of the American Revolution first appearing in 1775:

"She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her."

Later adopted by the Tea Party, which actually started as the Ron Paul Revolution in 2007 by people who wanted a real change to the American kleptocracy.   Co-opted by neo-con politicians and demonized by the main stream media to represent in-bred, over-weight, middle aged Americans with double digit IQs ranting about healthcare at town hall meetings.   Branded racist by the establishment, and ridiculed by the media until the symbol was effectively destroyed.

We saw a similar degradation of the Guy Fawkes symbol with the Occupy movement.  Started out to protest the occupation of the American government by corporations.   By the time it was over there nothing left but a bunch of co-intel pro agents, a few radical leftists, and a bunch of filthy vagrants and criminals camping out in NYC.  

I say we stand behind the brand.   Reiterate what it represents and why it has meaning to us.   It's our symbol and we shouldn't let them destroy it.

Fair enough. I really don't care if you use the word dope.

My original argument was that i find it doubtful that a dispensary would ever want to use it.

But what do i know. I'll just go smoke some god's pussy and shut up.

Monoxide what's up with the dope lottery?   Are you going to accept BTC as an entry currency and then use the BTC to make a market buy on behalf of the winners?   That's a dope fucking idea if you ask me.   

[dopecoindude]

Good

My original argument was that i find it doubtful that a dispensary would ever want to use it.

They don't even accept it for PotCoin. It isn't about a name really its just nobody has approached all this correctly.

But what do i know. I'll just go smoke some god's pussy and shut up.

SMOKE some god's pussy!  But, no need to shut up we accept anyone and everyone here!

I'm figuring it out. I had a busy day with my studies and selling my crappy car overpriced..
I think that atleast next round of Dope lottery will start tomorrow. let's say in about 23-24 hrs.

And yeah! That's a fucking dope idea. I'll actually call a.c now and talk with him about it.

[anotherlateminer]

So, guys, you're going to put dope in every post, aren't you?

[dopecoindude]

+11

I'm only putting dope in posts that are dope.

But anyway i talked with a.c about adding btc option in to the lottery and it will happen but there are some difficulties that we will work on. So atleast next round will be pure dope.
