JP,
how many people in your team pls?
just got a painful IPO from a shitcoin , then i find you . seems good.

Hey for the moment we are 2, I'm the dev and I have a close friend/partner working on design and marketing as much as possible.

If you don't mind I'd like to know what IPO was painful for you? I saw that the cleanwatercoin devs made a massive mistake and cost every IPO investor a lot of money. Or is it something else?

yup, that's water coin , i invested 0.9BTC there.now it's only 0.068.
due to the dev's rather slow response after there's issue. also opinionated fork by only dev themselves,still non-working win wallet even now. i quit. 
that's a real shit IPO! devs never be responsable for their IPO investers.

i suggust that you add more code devs in the team . only 1 is not enough, you can't take everything yourself ,  right?

Yeah that cleanwatercoin was a disaster. For the moment 1 dev + 1 marketer and designer is plenty, Darkcoin has only 1 dev (although he is a machine) and they are always adding new features. If I'm ever overloaded I will try to find some help, and the offers have been coming in from people in Montréal too so there's no lack of volunteers.

Bonsoir  I am in the other side of Canada at the moment and just found out about this coin on the POLONIEX TROLLBOX. i want to invest a little bit in the IPO and also claim the bounty for first informative blog post? I will do the blog post in 3 days as I got some posts to do if that is o.k I can also host a big giveaway/promotion as well after the launch? I know you do not like Google translations but if there are any bounties for this for a MANDARIN CHINESE translation done by my husband who is a certified translator and interpreter into and from Mandarin Chinese and he also hates Google translate lol he would like to take that job on. Je suis Grecque.. . This is my blog: http://bitbillions.net/

Glad they're chatting about us on trollboxes!

Yes there's still a bounty available for the first blog post, the first Québec article has already been taken though. I'm not putting up any more bounties for translation unfortunately, I'd love to connect with a Chinese audience but I have no way of interacting with them in reality afterwards. Go ahead for the blog post and show me when you're done, I'll credit you the bounty. For the IPO let me know, I'd love if you post your contribution directly in this thread.

Vault of Satoshi gets my vote as a great Canadian exchange.

And we should really try to find a Quebec or Candian minning pool. We need to sipport our economy. Its both great and beneficial for QBC at the same time!

Yes it's going really well (Although it seems like I'll be shipping 20 cans of maple syrup by the time it's over!)

I just got another PM for an investment (Around 1.2 BTC) by a Canadian hero member so hopefully he comes forward in the thread as well.

Vault of Satoshi is definitely amazing, if they are willing to add us we'd take a huge step forward. It doesn't mean the same thing that Auroracoin is on there, QBC is made for Québecers who are also Canadians of course. VoS is Canadian and it would give us a direct QBC/CAN exchange rate. I told them on twitter I'd drive over there and bring them some timbits (Like donut holes for everyone else) to convince them but no response yet!

I have to ask you to actually make the page before trying to claim the bounty. I said the same thing to OkayPool and he fixed it up nicely qbc.okaypool.com so I awarded him with the first bounty. I've had it claimed by Suchpool who are actually from Montréal but they haven't contacted me since they told me they would make it. Hopefully they come through soon enough, Suprnova.cc too.





Ok now for some news, I've talked with a member of this forum from Montréal to prepare a process to secure the premine for Québec. I think it's a great idea, especially since we have long term targets for airdrops. So I'll be collaborating with him and keeping everyone updated on the process too. This way the premine will need at least 2 people to be accessed and will be put on a variety of cold storage.

The member is 'Brunic'

With his collaboration we'll be able to bring QBC to a another level of trust which will benefit the coin itself and everyone who believes in it.

That looks amazing, I can feel my arteries getting clogged through the picture alone. Must have been delicious.

I've updated the page at www.qbc.io/ipo with the latest IPO investments. Go take a look and investors can let me know if there's a mistake somewhere. We've passed 12.57 BTC (which is great) and have 6 (and a half) days of IPO left.

Right now the base price per coin, which is determined by the IPO, is still a bit too low at 0.0000598 BTC/QBC approximately (You can compare how low that is with the latest nation coin which gathered attention, Isracoin, which reached 0.000588 BTC at their peak (approx 10x higher) while having a 4.8 BILLION coin max to our 42 million max and slower production rate).

A good target price is above 0.0002 BTC/QBC (42 BTC IPO). We're still a bit away from that but should get closer as the IPO draws nearer to the end. The higher target price means that each QBC is more valuable and that there are fewer whales, which means that no single person can affect the market too much by selling off all their coins. This way more people can profit from the trades on the market following the mining launch.

So take a good look at QBC and think about investing in a great coin with a ton of short term and long term potential. With BTC going down right now, it's a great way to inflate your holdings a bit while at the same time showing support.

Nice start. Looking forward to mine this coin at launch

Thanks a lot, looking forward to you mining it as well.

First decent looking country coin. Good, DRK is too hard to mine now but I refuse to leave X11.

I confirm this.

I'm not participating in the IPO, I'm a miner, so I'm interested in having a good mining environment. The threat of having the dev dumping the pre-mined coins on the market doesn't create a good mining environment. I want the trust in the dev to be irrelevant for the pre-mined coins. At the same time, I'm curious about the concept of a "nation-coin" and would love to see this experience go farther than what we've seen until now from other coins.

The process to secure the coins is not completely defined yet, but I can give some basic elements of it.

- The process for securing the pre-mined coins will start AFTER the launch. It's to give us time to do this correctly and let JPGagnon do a successful launch of his coin. Note that for a certain period of time (couple of weeks maximum), the pre-mined QBC will be in the hands of the dev. During that period of time, I cannot vouch for the security of any of the pre-mined coins.

- The pre-mined coins will be moved to a different wallet when we start securing them. This wallet will be in cold storage in a bank vault with multiple back-ups. I was thinking of putting a copy on a CD, an USB key and an hard drive at the minimum. That way, in a case of degradation, (we fail and drop poutine with maple syrup on them!), it doesn't destroy every media in the same way.

- To access those pre-mined coins, we will need at least 2 person. The access will also be controlled by the bank. I would love to have something where the bank vault can't be physically accessed until the airdrop and the bank refuse the access before the date.

I'll keep the process transparent and will keep you informed.

Thanks for the positive feedback, I've done my best to change peoples minds about country coins.

QBC will be the best coin with X11 to mine next week. I'm not saying it's the best X11 coin (Darkcoin holds that title) but it's the one X11 coin to mine when it launches. After the IPO closes I will give miners and investors suggestions on minimum market prices too.

Big endorsement, feeling more confident about QBC every day. Get your coins before the hype starts people!

So there you have it folks, QBC will be the only nation coin with a completely secured premine. You don't have to trust in me to trust in the coin, it will be made secure against dumps from any harmful event.

During the time period between launch and the process to secure the premine, there won't be any problems and I'll publish the address of all premined coins as well. I don't have any intention whatsoever of touching those coins before an airdrop anyways.

Big endorsement, feeling more confident about QBC every day. Get your coins before the hype starts people!

I don't want to sound like I'm trying to hype this coin beyond its potential, but yeah, get your coins from the IPO while they are still cheap, anything under a 100 BTC IPO has a serious chance of making you some moolah and making QBC a big hit at the same time, win-win! Thanks to all the investors so far!
