[ANN][SMC] SmartCoin | Next generation currency | continued development

[sosruko]

Maybe we should try getting SMC into one of the payment services like https://www.coinpayments.net/ https://www.edigicash.co/ or https://www.expresscoin.com/ because after all we want this coin to be used

Psio, are you running a mailserver with the .cc domain? If you do, maybe you could hook me up with a mail adress if you like, so you don't have to do everthing by yourself. Besides I think the thread description should be updated, we have been on X11 for a while now and it kind of looks outdated

Oh cool, I didn't know about those other two. Looks like SmartCoin is up for voting at coinpayments.net: https://www.coinpayments.net/vote

I'm not running a mail server, but @smartcoin.cc email is something that could potentially be created.

Page updated, thanks.

Hello Everyone,

I'm pleased to announce that Halofire has agreed to run the SmartCoin Donation Fund. Halofire has experience managing public funds for FLT and OC, so this is a welcome development.

I have sent 20K SMC to get started, so if anyone would like to run a giveaway, let me or Halofire know, as there is now official SmartCoin funding available for that.

If increased, the funds could also be used for things like web hosting and development bounties. Please feel free to donate to the following address: SgpYdoVz946nLBF2hF3PYCVQYnuYDeQTGu

Regards,
Psionin

That's right, folks. I'm here to provide a financial service for SMC, to collect and direct donations, and to represent the funds when called upon. A small % will be taken to go towards compensation for providing the service, as was discussed with psionin. I'm not here to get rich off of your donations, but I will be working for SMC and the community. 10% of Psionin's 20k will be allocated to compensation, then all subsequent donations will have a lower fee of 5%.

You can be rest assured the donation wallet.dat is it's own wallet.dat, triple saved on different sticks, and is safe and encrypted on the computer that is currently holding those funds. After a method of decision to be determined, I will direct them appropriately and transparently. If anyone has an idea for a way to spend the funds, please start a discussion here. I have a SMC address from Psionin in case of emergency. Please feel free to check the donation address against the explorer at anytime. I will be checking in here at least once per day, whether I post or not. Also, anyone feel free to PM me if you need to get a hold of me. Thanks!

Hello community,
I want to give a report in case some of you have seen other posts of mine or know info regarding a failed hard drive of mine. The SMC funds are safe, screenshot can be provided if need be, but I did have a hard drive crash. This is exactly why I saved the wallet's on 3 drives/sticks. I will not be sending the bad drive out to get the data back for added security measures. I know I could move the coins, but people in "clean room" lab coats are smarter than me, rather take zero chances.

I am very surprised that minimal community members have contributed to the donation fund. This fund is made to continue development, to spend where seen fit. For the remainder of the year for the holiday season, to aid in SMC growth, I will reduce the fee to 2.5%. Cheers! Happy Holidays!


REMEMBER TO BACK UP YOUR WALLET.DAT

"screenshot can be provided if need be"
That'b a good idea also a link to your credentials.
If you are acting trustee then it's part of the gig

My only other public credentials are with OC and FLT officially, FLT was months ago for a game we were playing while the old dev still held reign. I have been with BTCtalk for almost a year. If you'd like to see OC creds, check out the forum here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=581894.0 and search contest fund. I hold over 200k OC for the community which I started collecting back in July, CF address is in my sig for all to see. Drop in the OC forum and ask around about me. I'm solid. No worries there. That's why I asked Psionin for a back up address to send him any SMC I hold in the SMC fund, just in case of emergency. I'm not here to rip anyone off.

I've also done private escrows @ 2.5% from both parties, due to nature I cannot reveal details. That's why I was originally collecting 5% from SMC. Psionin originally said I could have 15%, but I knocked it down to 5%, and now it's 2.5% for the remainder of the year.

Cheers

I found the FLT game we were playing. Wasn't much, but whether $5 or $1B, no worries. This game shows my accounting skills at their best, publicly. Page 10 is where it starts showing the accounting. We were developing the game as we were going.

I'm not an official escrow, per se. So the info I've provided is all I can give. I help out when I notice or if people come to me on the side.
What do you mean terms of payout or a bounty list? I'm just holding funds to be designated for services by the core SMC team with input from the community. I'm acting more like a paid treasurer for SMC, versus an escrow.

I am an Eagle Scout in real life. A scout is T L H F C K O C T B C R.

3. private escrows @ 2.5% ...thread link?...
snip

Can't provide this, sorry. Confidentiality clause. Wasn't done in a thread anyway. I'm not an advertised escrow, I have to "know my clients" or at least one side of the arrangement. People trust me, and I'm not willing to tarnish that -- especially in this online crypto world -- the trust is all I've got, haha.

[Halofire]

I will be away for the rest of the day, any more questions I will have to address much later or possibly tomorrow.

Looking for uni students to get a college club for crypto study group going.

Ideas:

1. University Students (business/finance) SMART is an instrument to show that you are 'Smart'.

2. Technology Enterprises hardware sourcing and review.

3.  Crypto 'Smart' nexus between devs and investors, Smart provides coin security/maintenance and finance, a good coin needs both.  Smart brings them together.

4.  Peripherals:  websites, chain explorers, marketing, etc.  We can provide that too.  

5.  Open source software, Smart is intelligent on finding the best solutions for multiple markets. University Students (IT/CS)

I Wonder why only few people mining SMC currently. On Stoned Puppy there are 4 active workers all the time...

Why a Digishield protected X11 algo is very "SMART" ... it can survive low periods.

But yes we need to beef up the network.  I'd say discovery of x11 multipools is high priority ... and make sure we are on their list.

The fact that Smart is listed on Cry and Coinwarz is a major selling point for any one in the pool biz

How this works.  Smart Enterprises reviews prototypes, researches best manufacture.  And then utilizes crowd funding, small commission factored in with is then used to provide SMART by support.

Look at what happened with PayCoin, SmartCoin has a top notch brand-able name.

I hope the devs own all the top SmartCoin domains, that would add even more value if there's ever a buyout.
