Hey Everyone.
I've been watching how you've handled what has transpired with Dreamcoin and have been nothing short of highly impressed. This is one of the best early coin communities I have seen. As such, I'd like to offer a suggestion on the direction this coin takes. To show I am serious, I just bought the shit out of Dreamcoin; I am putting my money where my mouth is. You may or may not remember me from the last thread, but let me just say, when it comes to Cryptocurrencies, I am VERY good at what I do.
The biggest issue Dreamcoin has right now is you have nothing to set you apart. You're a clone coin. There is no innovation. There is nothing unique about you. Yes, you might get lucky and get some sort of pump, but it won't be sustained. I mean no disrespect when I say this, it's just the reality of cryptocurrency.
It doesn't have to be this way. Dreamcoin can be something special. Dreamcoin can do good in this world. And as a result, all of you can profit.I had a Dream...
I had a Dream where I walked through the villages, towns, and cities of the world and I didn't see any homes with lawns. Lawns are an enormous environmental burden that take water, fertilizer, pesticides, and herbicides, and give NOTHING back except a nice looking park-like atmosphere. They epitomize a culture disconnected from nature as well as their food supply. But slowly, that has been changing. People have been waking up to this reality and turning their lawns into food-producing gardens. A couple examples:

Local food production MUST be a part of our future. Removing our unproductive, resource-hogging lawns is a large part of that solution. Installing organic gardens in their place helps the environment, provides high quality food in a world where food is becoming ever-more expensive and unhealthy, creates community, and the list goes on. "Food not lawns" is a burgeoning movement and I feel Dreamcoin can play an enormous part in it, to everyone benefit.
How?
We incentivize people removing their FRONT lawns and installing a garden. It may sound cheesy, but I assure you, this can be amazing. For example:
1. We would create a Dreamfund. If the community agrees to this idea, I will start the fund with a donation of 25,000 DRM.
2. Anyone who wants to take advantage of this incentive first takes a photo of their front lawn that will be removed WITH a piece of paper saying, "My Dream is becoming a reality thanks to Dreamcoin" or something along those lines.
3. They take measurements of the lawn to get a total square foot area.
4. They post progress pics along the way.
5. Once they are done, they receive $0.20 per square foot of lawn that was removed in Dreamcoin. So if they removed 1000 square feet, they would get $200.00 worth of Dreamcoin. Over time, this amount can be adjusted as necessary with people who have already submitted their photos being grandfathered in.
When all of this catches on, we can then begin partnering with local nurseries, farmers markets, CSAs, and the list goes on.
Let's make DRM serve a purpose. Let's carve out a niche for Dreamcoin. In my opinion, this would be an awesome one. I realize not all of you would be thrilled about this specific niche, but it's something I know a lot about. Not only can we do a lot of good, but if we do it well, the value of Dreamcoin will rise as well. This will let each of you profit AND allow us the funding to help people replace even more lawns with food. It can become a self-perpetuating cycle.
An X11 POS coin that isn't a pump and dump. We don't need anonymity. We don't need any of the buzzwords people use these days to pump their coins. Because we will serve the greater good. We will have a purpose.
What say you?
