The voice over is me in the video (I created the ugly video lol), although it was on my laptop in a hotel and not in my studio. Yes, I can give you a frame by frame with time marks for the script.

So it's your video? I didn't know, I thought it's just an example  Sorry for such ill-mannered critique.

Ok then. You do great scripts and your voice is awesome. I'll help with visual part and we'll have the best video ever.

Sounds great!

Btw, I don't think anybody should work for free. Unless it's one of initial investors. I put aside 1M bounty for it.

No offense taken, I'm not a videographer/animator but just enjoy creative projects. I'll work on a storyboard this weekend.

That's awesome news, props to these guys.
I'll try to gather some btc to donate, or do you prefer qora?

Almost a day keep the wallet online as blocks, it is still not generated.

Still no PoS info forth coming. But, I guess you'll have to have at least 500k before you see any PoS blocks come your way.

Just so you know there are lots of websites that will help even an amateur make a pro looking info video.


I just did a search, first one was this but ai think there are a few. I wouldn't cut and paste your own images it looks crap.

The algorithm includes an element of luck/Random just like mining so it should be better than NXT in terms of only getting blocks if you have a big balance.

[ivanlabrie]

I have 500k...wanted to buy some more too 

(well, as long as poloniex doesn't scam me  )

[nextgencoin]

Anyone else wonder why other much lesser coins have more interest than Qora? Exocoin has quite a bit more action on its thread but they don't even have a beta yet and to honest it looks like a scam to me.

all the major videos for coins were done on sites like this, if you cut and paste stuff it will look unprofessional.

Why would you decide for the whole community to purposely make something that looked crap?


With a bit of time anyone can make something like this below. Why would anyone choose to do a cut and paste job???

In fact I suggest you turn this into a marketing thing. have a competition for a few weeks for people to make a video. Give a list of information that ideally will be in the video. Create a thread and give a bounty to the winner. A lot can be done even if you never made a video in your whole life with sites like Wideo.

Re: "No one ever buys cryptocoins with the intention of never selling them, ever. I think we can agree on that."

It depends on what you mean by word "sell". If it's exchanging for $ with different rate then I disagree.
Some people will buy NXT coins just to issue assets. Some people will buy them just to prepay for secure messaging.
Some to be able to regularly publish something (WikiLeaks).

It's interesting to be able to prepay for some services that I know I will consume in the future.
It would be nice if I could prepay for water, food, gas, electricity, taxes to avoid future price hikes, but I can't because providers of these services never take obligation of future delivery disregarding price in $ (X gallons of water or X gallons of gas, or X pieces of bread, e.t.c.). Even internet service providers store prepaid balance in $ instead of months or gigabytes.
With coins I can actually prepay for something and never exchange them back to $.
The only thing that can disrupt my prepaid services is existence of QORA coin network.

...
It's nice to see someone actually absorbed what I said and the gears in their brain are actually turning to produce a response.

You are mostly right. But I didn't say buying into an IPO is a loan, I did say that mechanically they are the same. I guess maybe I needed to be more specific and say a "crypto IPO"? You are correct in that in essence it is a sale in its most basic sense. But this sale is made with the intention of returning these coins to the market. Correct?

No one ever buys cryptocoins with the intention of never selling them, ever. I think we can agree on that.
If you buy into cryptocoins with the intention of selling them at a later point, again, I stand by what I said, that is the same as loan. You are "loaning" your money to the market or an investor with the intention of making that money back with interest in the future. Whether your funds go to one party (developer) and are returned through another (market) makes no difference in this argument.

stop talking to yourself.

Wrong

Why would you decide for the whole community

Because I do that stuff for living and you don't see difference between two videos you gave links to.
This one http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Um63OQz3bjo is a professional video with original illustrations made by professional illustrator specifically for that job.
This one http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aRCqf2jkJY8 is a copy/paste crap made on a lame service.
