My initial thoughts was the "major retail adoption" was the fact that they would have a credit card act as the middle man. So in-essence, the retailers aren't accepting hashcoin so much as they are accepting Visa/MC. There are countless other compaines bringing to market a BTC debit/credit card, which I personally don't see the point of.
However, in the timeline image, it shows Major Retail Adoption before Credit Card Purchasing. So are they implying that they will have major retailers on-board and accepting hashcoin directly? Seeing as how most major retailers are still dipping their toes into bitcoin, I find it hard to believe that hashcoin is going to have direct interaction with retailers so early on. Why the hell would walmart/amazon work with a no-name crypto, when they have yet to embrace BTC? Unless Josh plans on paying them heavily, which if your a multi-billion dollar company, i'd imagine you'd have to pay them quite a bit.

On merchant adoption: https://hashtalk.org/topic/16399/some-thoughts-on-merchant-adoptionA couple of notable bits: This is what we are working on. So a purchase at Target or Amazon might first have to be with a debit card linked to your online coin wallet at HashBase. One day, it may be able to pay them directly. The months are numbered until you will be able to swipe your card at your favorite merchant to buy a new pair of shoes So perhaps he hasn't talked to the CEO of Amazon yet, should call him tomorrow morning. I'd like my months till I can get rid of HashPointCoins to be numbered in low single digits, please. |

Nope, they are still thinking about it all, see the link: https://hashtalk.org/topic/16399/some-thoughts-on-merchant-adoption |

they are hoping that the liquidity they are bringing to maintain stability of the coin will attract merchants, CC is just an interim solution to having all merchants accept bitcoin or hashcoin. like any deployed software technology, you need to make sure you cover those on legacy systems to succeed. |

Yeah, not sure how what he said there matches up with what he said in his adver...interview. So is it hard, or easy, or hardly eay? Could you tell CCN how negotiations have been with the big retailers you mention and how you connected it all for your customers and theirs?
The great thing is we have the scale and lots of customers and mining power so we move 800 to 1500 bitcoins per day. That is larger than most all of the exchanges do, and we are not even an exchange. So negotiations are going well, and they have been easy. The companies see our scale and have confidence in what we have done, and we are doing. |

Surely it's more obvious to people now Josh comes up with an idea in his head, can't contain it posts about it then starts working toward it. You will be lucky to see hashcoin before the end of 2015, he will stall and delay, come up with new ideas, make pre announcements, then announcements then a new idea will pop up. I feel sorry for anyone on their knees paying to suck his dick.

Yea, first it was "We are merging with merchants who will be accepting our coin", now its "we will all have to wait, & hope and see if this comes to fruition". Its the same old hype over & over. I wont be touching hashcoin with a stick. It will get pumped and dumped to oblivion. |

Don't most of the big exchanges do tens of thousands of volume in BTC per day? According to http://bitcoinity.org/markets/list, they'd be 10th/11th. And 800 to 1500 is a huge range. Not sure why it would fluctuate so much. |

Not sure why it would fluctuate so much. I don't even get what "move X bitcoins per day" means. Mine that much as in block rewards? Highly unlikely. Trade that much? Where? Doesn't really say anything. But now I'm curious - is CCN the "news publication" they bought last week? That would explain the incessant shilling. https://twitter.com/gawceo/status/529154587450949632http://i.snag.gy/k15Ai.jpg |

The very fact Josh asked people to flood it with good reports should be ringing alarm bells to those poor fools. |

AND the fact he feels the need to "buy" the news outlet so he can control the flow of information. If he keeps this up, he will give Moolah a run for his (oops... other peoples') money...

hello All, and good morning to europeans,
To summarize about hashpoints the only we know is than we will be able to buy some HASHCOIN with haspoints the 24 of november.
the 400HP owners mean you must have at least 400 hp to be part of it ??
Does this means than 1 hashcoin = 400 HP ??
