[ANN] [START] StartCOIN 2.0 - The digital currency for crowdfunding

[Ducky1]

I have some questions about Startcoin and wonder if someone can help me out....

1. I understand that StartJOIN is a site where you can submit an idea and if the "crowd" likes it, then it gets funded, but who pays for that funding?

2. I still don't really understand what Startcoin has to do with Startjoin. If your project is funded, are you payed in Startcoin or something?

3. For the life of me, I can't figure out where Startcoin gets its value and what would make its price go to the moon? Is outside money (money outside of crypto) going to buy Startcoin off of Bittrex, and if so, why and for what purpose?

Thanks a lot in advance!

1. The crowd (the users of startjoin) funds it, sometimes with some help from startjoin itself.

2. Startcoin is the currency built into startjoin. It can be used to fund projects, and you get weekly interest on the startcoin's that's deposited on your account on startjoin. If you pledge to a project using startcoin you get some of it back as rewards each Friday. The rewards and interest are taken from the premine. The project's can be funded with startcoin, paypal (or if over 100% funded also bitcoin). The project owner decides what kind of payment is wanted, and usually get a mix of fiat and startcoin.

3. It gets its value from actually being used for useful stuff, a whole economic ecosystem is being built around it. I use Startcoin every day, but Bitcoin just once in a blue moon. The goal (in my opinion) is to make it a faster, cheaper, better alternative to the current economy. The start developers are building all the parts, some are finished, others are not. The value of startcoin should increase as adoption increases. A bit like bitcoin, but Startcoin has the advantage of a premine that can be used for supporting development, it has a company supporting it and holding it, and it starts at a much lower level (less than 1/1000 of the value of bitcoin) (the much faster transaction rate also does not hurt).

StartCOIN — an Altcoin for Crowdfunding and More

http://www.newsbtc.com/2015/08/16/startcoin-an-altcoin-for-crowdfunding-and-more

[Hippie Tech]

Well it is just my perception, but there was demand pushing price higher and guy set up sell wall of 24000 at once and basically stopped price movement. There is still 10 000 of his sell wall untouched. Because sellers put their asks lower so they can be filled. To me it seems irrational, If I would sell I would be selling in smaller chunks and try to do it at best prices. This looked like brute forcing stop of price rise.

It is called market manipulation (by Max and his DotCom boom n bust chums).

If a whale and/or someone who just wrote themselves a 42 million coin paycheck believes that..

By giving away a lot of startcoin on startjoin. Startcoin that I bought  on the exchanges. 5000 is hardly a vast amount btw

.. then wtf makes you think 24000 is ?

I'm not a whale, i'm a normal guy living on a normal paycheck that happened to take an early interest in Startcoin since I knew that It would be the most interesting coin for longtime exposure. In the beginning of august 2014 Startcoin reached an all time low of 502 satoshi, making 5000 start worth about 0,0251 BTC or about $14.

If you're trying to paint the price in a favorable light... what else are you trying to embellish ?



Soo...

What were these projects that inspired you to invest your limited resource ?

How much did you have to spend to garner that 5000 coin perk ?

and..

How did things turn out with said "projects" ?

That information is actually available on https://www.startjoin.com/backed/ducky1, just not the amounts

The 5000 Startcoin was awarded me after pledging 136$ worth of Startcoin to these projects:



This was just after Startcoin became implemented on Startjoin, so it was kind of pioneering "work".

As I understand it  the situation is that they are still in beta and the ad revenue sharing is not implemented yet.  So they are building a user base and perfecting the site. Makes sense because it would be hard to get advertising revenue if only a handful people used the platform.

Two reasons to be cheerful :  

1)  a Tweet from Max Keiser ‏@maxkeiser Aug 12

"Keep your powder dry: next @StartHLDGS | @start_coin equity offer on @BankToTheFuture coming week of August 24th."


and 2)  the NEWSBTC article http://www.newsbtc.com/2015/08/16/startcoin-an-altcoin-for-crowdfunding-and-more/

"... Karl Gray, producer of the documentary “Life on Bitcoin” is leveraging upon StartCOIN to start a $20 million hedge fund called StartFund. StartFund is currently in the process of meeting regulatory requirements and soon we may see a whole ecosystem created around StartCOIN."

LOL Hippietech wants to get in really hard 

[snakey]

In advance of Startcoin being listed on a Chinese exchange, over the next 36hrs will be giving away some of these on Startjoin and Startpeeps, they are the same as those to be distributed in China apart from being in English .

Did you forget that the price was 6-7 times higher than your quoted 500 sats, on Aug 7 ?

If it smells like a mole/shill pushing an Indiegogo clone and it edits quotes like a mole/shill pushing an Indiegogo clone... then it is probably a fucking quote editing mole/shill pushing an Indiegogo clone.

Max's tweet about your 5000 coin reward was posted Aug. 7 2014 at 8:52am. You more than doubled your pledge activity on that same day. hmm...

Are you willing to provide us with the necessary txids so as to prove that you actually used coins purchased from an exchange instead of USD and/or the 5000 coins Max gave you on August 7 ?

I'm not very familiar with Indiegogo, do they even take bitcoin? At least om quite sure they don't have their own crypto that pays out rewards an interest rate every week. The point of having a crowdfunding site built around crypto is to get away from banks and their fees and policies. Utilizing the network effect that a growing platform like StartJoin brings with it ensures that the built in crypto increase in value over longer time spans so both givers and receivers earns and have an incentive to grow the ecosystem over time. That's the point. And boy has it grown over the last year.

I can give you a Txid, although I don't see how it proves anything. Why would you even doubt that I have bought Startcoin and given it away on StartJoin? People do that every day.

Ducky please dont waste your time

[Cryptozillah]

Anyone got a link to a guide for solo mining START ?

[Ducky1]

Ducky please dont waste your time

Sorry, cant resist 

[mind808crime]

I see our longtime crack-baby Hippie Tech is still around.  Everybody who's been around these pages knows about him or can research his name in about 15 seconds.  Another 15 seconds shows that Ducky1 is a longtime Start supporter who deserves reward.  Meanwhile back at the ranch, Startcoin is pumping again!  HT makes a lot more sense from the Ignore list.

Hello,

Yes it's definately real, we're now integrating the ad revenue sharing system, will launch in less than 2 weeks.

Some other things that will be ready by launch:
-> A coupon marketplace to increase revenue, so people can look for coupons at online stores, we earn a commission and share 90% of revenue with Startpeeps users.
-> Improved affiliate system with tools to refer members.
-> Viral sign up system to make the site grow super fast. By launch the site will be invite only so people need to post their affiliate link all over the internet to invite people (as you did just now ). On top of that people can share their affiliate link on other social media to get $5 instantly in their account.

After launch we'll work on a "fiverr" like marketplace where people can buy and sell just about anything and integrate Startcoin as payment method. Plus members of Startpeeps will be able to spend their revenue on this marketplace to increase overall revenue even more. Sellers will be able to promote whatever they sell using their Startpeeps revenue too.

It's a major project and ready to take off pretty soon.

Cheers,
Jens
