Stellar

[RocketSingh]

^^WTF is this? Bitcoin holders need to hand over their verified Facebook account details to you or verify themselves at participating exchanges to get claim Stellar? I mean, what kinda moronic honey-trap Stellar network is trying to become?

I guess, a better option would be allowing bitcoin holders to sign a message through their private key and claim Stellar. Something similar is possible for CLAM.

This isn't our platform. This is owned by the world. It will be built by you guys. It is all open source and an open protocol much like bitcoin. If Stellar is going to work other people need to get involved. I think there are a lot of people out there that are dissatisfied with how money and payments work and Stellar can greatly improve things and democratize/decentralize these concentrations of power. This technology can be very liberating and empowering but it does take a community of people to contribute to it.

I think, if u can rope in dooglus to allow Lumens to be used in Just-Dice alongside CLAM, it would be a great exposure for Stellar and will have a great +ve impact on price.

Stellar sucks for the same reason as Ripple, it is not decentralized

cryptoadoption: what part of Stellar do you think is not decentralized?

You started as a Ripple fork. Lumen distribution remains horrible and is to a large degree centrally controlled.

Your regulatory compliance efforts will ensure Stellar will never be completely decentralized. For example:

"October 5, 2016: The first round of the lumen giveaway to bitcoin holders will conclude. If there are unclaimed lumens, they’ll go to Stellar.org’s operational fund.

Due to regulatory restrictions, this program is closed to residents of the U.S. states of New York, Georgia, New Hampshire, and Connecticut as well as the nations of Iran, Cuba, North Korea, and other countries subject to sanctions by the United States. These restrictions are subject to change to account for changes in regulatory posture."

Perhaps what you offer will have some value to banks and corporations. Just please don't pretend that Stellar is decentralized.

Why will the unclaimed lumens go to Stellar.org? Why just not touch it and leave it be if no wants it. I believe Stellar.org is getting short in funds and must find a way to get lumens without making it look bad on their side.

most of the unclaimed lumens are going toward people building things: https://www.stellar.org/blog/build-challenge/


cryptoadoption: Oh mean the distribution is centralized. Yeah this is true. but it is temporary and everything else, the network and the code and the ecosystem is decentralized.

M28MmickT: If I don't think that XRP is going to be worth much long term why do you think I should be obligated to hold on to it? I didn't start selling right when I left ripple (when I was the most angry) I gave them a year to see if things would look better but to me it still seemed like the company wouldn't last long term so it was time to sell. Of course it is impossible for me to be totally objective but I was trying to make a rational choice. But I really don't think it was emotionally driven decision which is what I think you are implying when you say it was childish.

We have done several auctions of lumens which is similar to a crowdsale. SDF is currently selling some of its lumens on kraken right now to pay for our operations. So anyone can go be an early adopter, get lumens and help SDF.

>And for the end, don't look for someone to build apps on your platform

Thanks for your answers, at the end I believe Stellar has more future than Ripple but distribution needs to improve or make a difference from what is Ripple already, and regarding the sale of XRPs yes, but the part people thought was emotionally driven was the sale announcement not the sale act itself.

Best regards.

For better distribution we need more volume and higher price on exchanges.

This coin is shit they changed the layout of their website and I can no longer login into my accounts 

[klintay]

X-ray and klintay: this is why we also have this program for most of the unclaimed lumens: https://www.stellar.org/blog/build-challenge/
If you build a project on stellar you can get *a lot* of lumens

jed, I am more of a hardware guy. If you are looking for MONSTER USB hub to run your servers on then let me know, here is our website:

I'll send you a 49 port usb hub sample for free  

This coin is shit they changed the layout of their website and I can no longer login into my accounts  

should be fine if you wrote down your secret key

[jed]

Nobitcoin: I think you are looking for this link: https://launch.stellar.org/#/login  you need to upgrade. And save your secret key. Stellar is like bitcoin. There aren't accounts really.

[klarki]

It is amazing a coin is still alive.
I seemed absurd idea, but unfortunately I was wrong.
How a future for this coin you think there are?
