[ANN] ORA :: NXT 'monetary system' currency

[megashira1]

I liked this version of logo , looks great with multiple colors.

+1 for logo.

It's also good to know that first round of distribution has finally finished with 889 stakeholders.

Colours and logo is cool but I feel the text needs to be original.

Stakeholder update 08/14 (Final). [Link]

One final check for secured NXT addresses has been made of the 889 entries in total which made it through all phases.
14 new stakeholder secured their accounts since last update. These addresses have been submitted for distribution.
This means a total of 839 NXT accounts were secured and got/will get their stakes.

For more info, check out the Stakeholder Registration Info topic at:
http://oraforum.org/viewtopic.php?id=8

It's been a very tuff but equally rewarding job and I really appreciate the kind words and trust I've received from many people.

Now it's time to fully look ahead and focus on where we should take Ora next.

I have distributed the ora stakes to the 14 stake holders.

So Mac, can we conclude that the total final first round stake holders are 839 only? No more distribution after this right?

Big news :
Bter got hacked. 50 million NXT. They are talking about rolling back the NXT blockchain.
Bter, Poloniex and Cryptsy have either frozen their NXT operations or froze their entire exchange.  I think DGEX is not far behind unless it froze operations already.
Only place left to move funds around is into assets.  There are bigger assets but the only thing with holding power if NXT price were to free fall is hypothetically convertible coins like NEM and Ora

No rollbacks. Bter will handle the thief.

I don't know what Bter can do at this point though    Bter already sent the hacker 100 BTC, the guy just said deal's off, good night and took off. Apparently they have his username on the NXT forum, wonder if they'll be able to track him down. To be honest, it's Bter's fault for using the same password for so many different services. You can't afford to be that lazy when you're running a business. I like Bter though and I hope they're able to get out of this mess.

Here's good article from Coinssource regarding the heist:

We will decide when Nxt Voting comes live.

Meanwhile we will proceed to phase 2, distribution via action or contribution.

Why should we use Nxt voting and wait for it to be released when Qora ALREADY has great voting system? Ora is a clone of Qora and you don't want to use its feature? That seems to me really weired and even stupid.

Thats because stakes issued in nxt. How do you know who is legit voter in Qora voting system?

We are also looking into other voting system or Plan B if Plan A is not realistic. (Whats with qora fans calling ora stupid?, this is not a first time i have noticed).

Just let everyone to vote. There are people who don't have Ora yet but they are willing to buy it. So they might have right to vote too.

(Whats with qora fans calling ora stupid?, this is not a first time i have noticed).

I wasn't calling Ora stupid I was calling weird or even stupid using Nxt instead of Ora parent's voting system.

Makes sense. But we do not want to make any wrong decision right now. Rest assured we are carefully planning what we are doing at this stage.

Regarding on your request to let everyone to vote, i will make sure this is considered as well. I understand your concern.

I don't think it's a good idea to allow people who've got nothing to do with Ora to vote. I mean anyone can say they're willing to buy and abuse the voting system and it's not fair for those who actually own Ora. It's like asking people from France to vote on who's gonna be president in the US. I believe only people holding Ora, whether they've bought their coins or they're original stakeholders, should be allowed to vote.
