I would like to point out that this trust would be in the South West of England, and is unlikely to be of interest to many members here. Also, it is just an idea at the moment, so I am not asking for any payments or contributions. However, I would be grateful for comments on the possible viability of the project, and any advice on setting up a blockchain for security tokens to register benefits for members and contributors.
The idea is to purchase woodland with running water, and use it for the benefit of the wildlife and preservation of the trees and other vegetation. I will establish a small museum of vintage agricultural and horticultural equipment, and provide a cleared area for members to park camper vans when visiting the site.
Is it a sensible idea to create a blockchain to register transferable membership rights? If you were managing such a project, would you add any other options to the blockchain? Were the project to become successful, then there is a possibility that other woodland sites could be added in the future.
I have registered the domain name WildBrambles.com for this project - do you think this is a suitable name?

Excuse me but I don't see the point in creating a blockchain for such a project. There are a lot of people trying to "blockchainize" everything while it gives no additional value, so sorry if I don't get it. It's similar to selling private equities in which you'd be in charge of shares, management, etc. It's not as if you were the state and decided to make a distributed ledger. You have no use of, or just calling a share a token to make it fancy? Nah...

I agree that creating a decentralised ledger would be a useless complication. I was thinking of a centralised ledger with its own currency, and this could be used by local and overseas visitors to purchase products and amenities. Perhaps that is too far into the future to consider at the moment though. Blockchain seems to have became an extremely general term, and my thinking was that a chain without the cryptography, but with public access and analysis would serve the purpose. Maybe I shouldn't refer to that as a blockchain.

From a marketing perspective, yes. It caught my attention. Brambles are difficult to cut or remove, so it does sound like a protected forest land project.

I don't know if I understand your project correctly, but I think this article[1] talks about the possibilities of using a distributed ledger platform to record property ownership. It may be useful or you can get some useful links. The domain name looks good. I think of some things like BramblesChain.com Or any part related to open source decentralized systems.

Thanks for the replies and advice. One of the difficulties will be the initial publicity, and I have started a supporting project in the Fit to Talk forum - https://fittotalk.com/english-talk/index.php?topic=380.0The idea behind this is to help Bitcoin Talk members in countries with low earnings potential to earn Bitcoin by selling photographs. I'm trying to build a camera system at minimum cost, and I'm basing it on a Canon 350D. I use FujiFilm and Sony equipment for my main content production. So this is a stand alone budget project. I don't need any donations or investments for this, and anyone interested in joining should invest in themselves, and not in others. I'd be interested to know if any members outside England are able to pick up cheap photographic equipment. So how will this help Wild Brambles? If I can get some exposure for wildlife and the natural environment, then I can link it to Wild Brambles.

Who would manage the site? If you plan to establish a small museum and an area for members to park then you will obviously need a member of staff or two on site at all times while it's open. Would you plan to do this yourself, taking a salary? Would you hire someone else to do it? Who would be involved in those hiring decisions if so?

Thanks Diamond - This thread was a bit of an impulse post, and it may be that trying to crowdfund would be an attempt to start a community, and that would be an immense amount of work. It might be better to sell some property, and just make it a personal project. I helped a guy with a large personal agricultural museum for many years, and he just had an annual show, and a few private viewings. I think the blockchain bit is just me trying to create a project to experiment with the creation of a tokenised security. The Crypto Coin Tree would probably be more suitable, and maybe I'll try to revive interest in that next year.
I'm concerned about the current obsession with electricity, carbon dioxide, and pharmaceuticals, and I would like to try to influence people, and persuade them to adopt a more healthy lifestyle. It seems to be that in the South East of England, it is everybody's ambition to cut down trees, and I believe they should be preserved and replanted. Hence my woodland trust ambition. I'm becoming interested in my budget photography project, and I may post that as a separate concept. It would be interesting to see if old camera equipment could be acquired and used in countries like Venezuela.

I'm probably not going to comment too much on the use of blockchain/crypto here. My personal thought is that accepting donations in bitcoin should be the simplest starting point, and then leaving the tech details in a far future as a possibility aimed at transparency and accountability, more than for anything else.
Focus instead on the practical aspects of how it would be run (it's got to be centralised at the beginning anyway, no?).
Also, it might gain more traction with reforestation efforts rather than preservation (since all preservation in UK will have to be state sanctioned first no?).
A lot more people might be interested in purchasing fallow lands, reforesting it, and then caring for that. It's a far less sophisticated skillset I think. My opinion, only, of course.

in other words you are trying to reduce the number of people you target to the minimum amount possible! because that's what happens when you use a stand alone (different) cryptocurrency. people would have to have first heard of it and then have to have converted their money into that coin to be able to spend it! suffice it to say that they are barely doing it with bitcoin let alone with any other cryptocurrency. your project seems to be best fitted for a simple donation project where you put up a wallet address and transparently receive and spend amounts from it!

A very good base but you need further information as to how the organization would be run and how it would progress if funding began.
