I said the same thing.

It's an easy sell so far to everyone I've talked to.

all we need to do, is have one or two celebrities with thousands of Twitter followers tweet out a Getgems invite and then its done.  It will spread like wildfire.

for instance, doesn't Ashton Kutcher have over 1 million followers and his investment company has been active in the Bitcoin area.

might be a good place to start

Just to answer your question (I think) there is a plan to be able to change the apps color.


The color actually is a a pretty smart move though as some focus has been on females who are bigger texters than males, apparently. Plus I'm not surprised we have quite a few Japanese followers I think which also makes sense cause asians (based on my experience living here) have no problem with pink for guys.

ATM there is some very nice move on polo Smiley already jumped from 5K to 6K with 15 BTC volume .


GetGems certainly has the potential to be at least like 200x less worth than WhatsApp which is 100M market cap for GetGems and i'm being conservative here, because it has introduced a complete new, working and attractive approach for instant messaging. Imagine if it's a success it gets bought for couple hundred million or something. Magma VC who also invested in GetGems also invested in Waze which got bought by Google for 1B. I think this app has true potential because it's the first in this field with such model combined with the simplicity for the non tech savy, so they should have full confidence and market the hell out of it.

My dads friend was here yesterday and i updated the app for him and he saw his referral and had 25 Gems he found it pretty awesome, so he went to 'invite friends' and brought up WhatsApp and just tapped on his contacts to invite them, thats how easy it is. I don't think i have seen any other Crypto related project with this ease to introduce and connect it with others.


I've had my fair share of hyping coins I owned in the past but really I feel like Gems is different. Almost all Altcoins apart from Bitcoin basically derive their value from potential future of a coin ie its usage. People are saying alts are dying, I would say its more reality is kicking in as it becomes more and more clear the only real coin that will succeed is Bitcoin (if that does even). Thats why im so critical of coins like NEM cause they are riding nothing more than hype. Its kind of ridiculous that you have vol of 500BTC on exchanges for coins that are supposed to be currencies that most will admit will never be used. So now most successful coins aren't really coins but are 'tokens' that serve some kind of business that ultimately is based on the blockchain.

So back to Gems, I see the valuation still based on future usage BUT for once the potential for usage is actually massive and not as unlikely as average alts. I disagree when people say wow Whatsapp was sold for 20 Billion maybe if we had as many users we could have a marketcap as much as that. I disagree cause actually IF just say for example sake we had a user base of nearly a Billion! then the marketcap would be far more than just 20 Billion. Bitcoin only has a few million user base which is relatively tiny but its marketcap is a few billion and has been and will be much more.  
So just imagine a coin/token with even say 10 million users, it  would in theory have a higher marketcap than Bitcoin. For this reason I wish the wider Bitcoin community would get behind Gems as mutually beneficial, Gems is like a gateway drug for Bitcoin in 12 months it could in theory give a few millions people who barely heard of Bitcoin a chance to experience using a bitcoin wallet. So this app could be the best thing that happened to Bitcoin since it was created.


I also got to say for the sake of balance if this app only gets 30,000 users and plateaus our around there then we wouldn't get much further than top 20 on Coinmarketcap. This has got to be the most exciting project to watch in crypto cause we can see the progress that no one can argue against on the download counters.  

Scam salesman much?

There ain't no Revolution like a NEMolution.  The only solution is Bitcoin's dissolution! NEM!

These guys would be a good fit to market getgems through social media.  Sean parker, Ari Emanuel, and oliver luckett are the founders.

They could get an app like getgems going quick

General question:

I bought some extra Gems on Poloniex and tried sending 100 Gems to my in-App wallet as well as 100 Gems to my account on Counterparty. Both transactions never succeeded and are still pending?

Anyone has an idea how this can be? I would like to move my Gems from Poloniex to Counterparty asap.

Question for Daniel: I remember I supported some activities before the presale of Gems was launched, like the 'proof of action campaign'. When are we supposed to receive those few free gems that was the reward for these activities? Smiley

Best,

Of course cause Gems is a counterparty asset built into a messenger app. I might get this around the wrong way but the app is an offline wallet so no fees to pay in btc while you can also hold your coins in a safer online wallet. Both are accessible and managable via counterparty wallet. Of course you can send any gems you have in your wallet with the actual app.

If a potential user of the "real world" have to create a counterparty account, understand it, and then use Gems messenger, maybe avoid to use it. It's possible to use it without the counterparty account? I think it's needed a deeper repository of information about the app and the use (Ok, I understand we are in beta... but I want to use and extend the app right now Tongue ).

No you don't have to make a counterparty account to use gems in the app, but you can store your gems on counterparty.io it's an web wallet. i believe there will be a getgems web wallet aswell.

I still have my gems on koinify, should transfer them to counterwallet.

There probably does need to be an introductory video later for new users just to explain what Gems is and how it works, that's standard for many new concept apps. But I think me talkking about the counterparty wallet might of made things seem more complicated than they are, for most people they would never need to leave the app, simply receiving gems from airdrops and then from that point on they have a gateway into crypto. The fact is just like the internet there is always some learning involved to understand something new, its not brain surgery however and the little help prompts in the app go most of the way to explain stuff.

The key is to give an 'experience' of sending coins/wealth easily to someone else or buying something, for many people that's what hooks people, plus seeing the value of your stash increasing, equally addicting and why you are probably reading this now.  Grin

Okay thanks , Yes probably not a bad choice to make it attractive for girls but I want to change it, and I thinks many other men too ;-)
