Nothing to see here, move along. It's not a PnD, scam, a coin that has no use besides trading and does not belong in this section of the altcoin forum, but the good news is that posting here people will automatically think it's a shitcoin.

The Guldencointeam has its roots in Amsterdam, so a matter of time, I guess.

Amazing amount of updates. Some coins in the top 50 you have to wait a month for 1 update, seems like everyday is something new for this coin.

We have also just added our first coffee merchant.

Let's start the day with coffee...

[JOwenz]

Respect! Don't see this everyday in the sea of garbage with all the altcoins. Will buy some later as approval of the work going in here.

Hey that's pretty cool. How does it work though ? How can I pay right there in the shop ? I'd love to try.

Yes, you can! If you have android, download the Guldencoin mobile wallet at Google playstore. (Iphone wallet will be there soon).

Put some NLG on the mobile wallet and you can pay a your cup of coffee there.

[veertje]

Update from the team about the Iphone wallet

[big brother]

I assume you pay before they pour out the coffee, otherwise it could go cold while they are waiting for enough confirmations.

Payments in the stores within a few seconds all the time, my friend. Doesn't depend on the blockconfirmations at time of payment.
The Guldencoin team has thought about that

So are they autoexchanged or does the shop actually HOLD NLG ?

[veertje]

So are they autoexchanged or does the shop actually HOLD NLG ?

They use a litepaid account with payment via API on another platform. Litepaid handles it and perfect administration of the transactions for the merchants as well.

Merchants get their price in euro. (if they wish they can also get it paid in NLG).

Proud of Guldencoin with the IOS development as well Coming soon!

How fast are the transactions if I pay in the store? I mean how do they know that I have enough money in such a short period of time? Is transactions that fast?

cool stuff btw op

Transaction is very fast, 1 to 30 seconds. Team took care about that. Not dependable on blockconfirmation at first. Transactions go to another platform Guldenpay and then taken care off after that with blockconfirmations.

I'm not talking about people accepting it, but merely what distinguishes this coin from Bitcoin, Litecoin, Peercoin, Monero etcetera. People accepting the coin and the dev team having value are good things to have, but that is not enough by far. The most important thing is the value proposition you bring to the table compared with your bigger brothers. If you are just a Bitcoin clone with nothing new, then yes this is a useless thing to read up on because it's destiny is predetermined.

So, what sets this coin aside or is it merely the name?

Guldencoin is for buying things and puts that into practice. Good network buildup already, without great publicity and marketing yet. That will follow after iOS release. I hope you will read more about Guldencoin, because it is worth it. This will rock besides BTC. BTC is more of the goldstandard, NLG will be for buying with as a currency. For sure better specs for that purpose than BTC.

If you are just a Bitcoin clone with nothing new, then yes this is a useless thing to read up on because it's destiny is predetermined.

So, what sets this coin aside or is it merely the name?

Well, where to start. Yes Guldencoin is a segway into the former currency of the Dutch. And yes that makes it easier for people to understand and to accept. It differs from Bitcoin in attitude, usability and there's an easier grasp to understanding what a Guldencoin is then to what Bitcoin is. Bitcoin is a tremendously good invention, one that will last at least forever. However, where it built an awesome system, it lacks in magic. Magic to convince non-tech-savvy or non-financial people to start using it. If accepting Guldencoin by companies doesn't impress you, why is the acceptance of Bitcoin by Dell world-news?

What has Bitcoin done the last 4 years other than trade up in monetary value, based on an anonymous coder that is rich beyond our wildest dreams because of it and like the BCT admin says "Bitcoin runs on drama" when it should run on pure hashing awesomeness. Guldencoin isn't for tech-savvy people, not even for financial whizzes. Guldencoin is used by people that don't need to know how the car works, as long as it drives. It's a payment method so fast and secure, it doesn't even need a bank or government to oversee its functions. You see, where Bitcoin is explained in terms of hash, cryptography, who the hell Satoshi is and how on earth it has the monetary value of 400-600 or 800 dollars, Guldencoin is explained as an idea, a digital commodity, used in daily life. Supported by its users. Run on an actual community that shapes, defends and supports the currency rather than pushing it to make more money, rather than becoming the evil genius fiat once was.

Guldencoin has the sweet ability to do what others don't. With simple tools, based on a simple Litecoin fork to spoon its way into the hearts of the people. It is this marketing that shapes a community so passionate it is willing to discuss with you why Bitcoin is not where it's at anymore. It's with Guldens.

Oh and just to make this more financial. See Bitcoin as a global coin to support the common thread of crypto-desire whereas Guldencoin will be the regional coin, not for The Netherlands per se, as it is accepted in Brazil, Portugal (tattoo parlour) and soon other countries as well, to support a local market. Also known as Glocalising. Or rather, think globally, act locally - http://www.projectgulden.nl/134/waarom-een-regionale-digitale-munt-als-guldencoin/. See Bitcoin as the main currency to support a world economy, which it can when value goes up as more people start using and accepting it. But with a local market to support demand and convert a fiat-system into a crypto-system. Guldencoin will not be the only regional 'coin' that will be widely accepted. We don't need to go back to country-issued-money. We will go to a system where economies are based on supply and demand. And if Guldencoin has the demand where Bitcoin does not. That is where Bitcoin has failed and Guldencoin has succeeded. As a currency.

When you said this: 

what distinguishes this coin from Bitcoin, Litecoin, Peercoin, Monero etcetera.

I laughed so hard. Because, Monero, really? Have you seen that website, or how to build your own wallet? Who does that? Cool if you think that cryptocurrency is all about tech, it's not.

Thanks for you (well-intended) clarifications .

You have not changed my initial opinion (It's a LTC clone with a different name and no added value) but at least you tried and the tone stayed mostly civil. Now everyone reading this can form their own opinion.

Cool. You're still approaching it from a tech-point of view. Which is one way to go, but there's more to it. Not to say that Guldencoin doesn't add new tech and dev to the cryptoworld. Where the core of the coin might not be innovating, the tools it provides over time are

Cool though, hope to see you become a supporter like a lot of other skeptics have over time.

I decided to explain myself a little better. This is not to start a flame war of any kind so fans of this particular altcoin who aren't interested, don't waste your time in reading this.

I think I can make it most clear by responding to this (from the article you linked).

Nu wordt dat met Bitcoin ook geprobeerd op wereldwijd niveau, maar zijn er voor Bitcoin te weinig munten in omloop om wereldwijde acceptatie daadwerkelijk mogelijk te maken. Het zou kunnen als de waarde verder stijgt, maar oneindige groei bestaat niet.

This claims there aren't enough Bitcoins to go around globally. This is just silly since the allocation of fundamental units (known as Satoshis) to represent a Bitcoin is completely arbitrary and sufficient fundamental units likely exist (and if not the fundamental units will be split).

Then the quote claims the market cap of Bitcoin is insufficient for world wide trade and that the price of Bitcoin can not increase indefinitely (implying it will not increase sufficiently). The answer to that is very simple: if you think Guldencoin fixes this then sufficient value must be allocated to it's market cat. That same value (and the value of all other local coins you predict) could simply be added to Bitcoin to achieve the exact same effect. So either there is sufficient growth to achieve a sufficiently large market cap, or there is not. The existence of local coins do not change this.

Overall, I don't see any value in locally applied crypto currencies. Sending a Bitcoin to someone can be done just as fast to someone in the Netherlands as to someone in Melbourne. In fact, you won't even know where the individual or individuals controlling the private key reside. Therefore there is no added value in creating a crypto specifically for a certain region. In fact, you cannot even control it. Why would someone in Australia NOT use GuldenCoin why someone in the Netherlands would (the name? really?).

Unless you can come up with a true differentiator for requirements of a crypto in a specific region (Swiss people want anonymous features, Americans want identity tagged addresses and the Argentinians want extremely high levels of inflation) one global crypto is going to win the vast majority of all traffic while the second place is there because of some useful (not geographically related) variation on the original concept.

I believe you are looking at it without emotion. . The name will interest a lot of Dutch people that aren't currently cared about Cryptos and will inspire them to find out more, but I believe Guldencoin will spread to Belgium and other countries in Europe.  Just to add , iOS is available for testing, something litecoin hasn't even launched yet.

Bitcoin has had a lot of bad publicity with GOX and as a result certain individuals will be ready to keep dumping the price down. Touch wood Guldencoin won't have such problems even though I expect an exchange one day will steal coins.

Thank you, I am

This might get them interested and some might even initially buy this, but in the final equilibrium it won't plat any role just because of a name and association with a former commodity based currency and fiat currency by the same name.

It all depends on adoption, if NLG creates a hub of merchants in confined areas that aren't accepting bitcoin it will create mass awareness for the coin in those areas. I am talking about offline merchants now. It's the other coins that I believe you are correct in your statements, where they are competing globally against bitcoin which I don't believe they can.

Guldencoin has one of the best chances of long term success against any altcoin imo.

[Buerra]

Sure, satoshi's exist, to divide the value. But they aren't aimed at daily use either. "That'll be 0.00040 Bitcoin please" when "That'll be 100 gulden please" would make more sense for the average person. As explained in the article I mentioned. But you can't get past the fact that it's called Guldencoin and has no other technical improvement on Litecoin, other then KGW, and that it is better at reaching people then Bitcoin.  

We've got 700 years of fiat-currency to replace with new systems and payment methods and that takes time to change in peoples minds. Guldencoin understands and achieves this better than Bitcoin, in my opinion.

Bitcoin won't see mainstream adoption like this, especially not with the general attitude people that only support Bitcoin have. It simply isn't welcoming, which is why Bitcoin is approached pretty negatively by companies and people in general. It's incredibly important that an idea, no matter what it is, is friendly. A computer back in the day was a weird ass thing to have, what could you do with it and why would you buy it? By making it friendly with improved usability, it was adopted quickly. This is no different.

Let's enjoy this iOS phase now though!

It won't be "That'll be 0.00040 Bitcoin please" of course but some sort of other factor will be used. If you pay a quarter for something you don't say "that'll be $0.25 please!" You say that'll be 25 cents or that'll be a quarter. MilliBitcoin (or whatever factor makes sense based on price) works exactly the same.

I think you guys are working hard, so good luck

[veertje]

I think you guys are working hard, so good luck

Thanks Wachtwoord, BTC and NLG together will spread over the Netherlands hand in hand I should say: buy some NLG as well for your BTC now they are still cheap.

Thanks Wachtwoord, BTC and NLG together will spread over the Netherlands hand in hand I should say: buy some NLG as well for your BTC now they are still cheap.

This is one of the reasons I have loved this coin from the start, it will work with BTC and not against it, so both will gain in value as more people adopt both coins.

Update 21-9:

There will be an upgrade of the wallet to DGW3 with hardfork on 25th of september:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=554412.msg8917425#msg8917425

Version 1.3
Main changes are DGW3 and the protocol version revert and because of these changes, we need to perform a hard fork in the network. The new software version number will be 1.3 and it won’t be able to connect with pre-1.3 software. Updating your wallet is mandatory!

The plan
Times are CEST timezone (UTC+0200)
Thursday 25th of September we will cause a hard fork.
18:30 we will start by shutting down the seeds one by one.
19:00 the last seed will be shut down, the last block known by this seed will be the last KGW block.
19:01 We will hard code the next block number into the new software and start compilation of the guldencoind (software ran on the seeds).
19:05 We will start compiling the guldencoin-qt wallet for Windows and Mac OSx.
19:15 First seed is started with the new 1.3 software, other seeds follow one by one.
19:16 We test the guldencoin-qt wallet with the new network
19:17 New software source code is pushed to Github.
19:20 The new guldencoin-qt wallet is published on the website and available for download.

We will keep everyone updated about the process through a topic in the forums.

Leuk concept, alleen jammer dat het de GuldenCoin heet. Een naam als digitale gulden oid had mij beter in de oren geklonken.

It is funny how this is a real world use currency and yet shitcoins which are nothing good for other than a pump and dump are valued more.

Thanks for you (well-intended) clarifications .

You have not changed my initial opinion (It's a LTC clone with a different name and no added value) but at least you tried and the tone stayed mostly civil. Now everyone reading this can form their own opinion.

What are dollars and euro's made of?

It's an ethnocentric coin that is only used in the Netherlands.  I think between Aurora and all the nation coins we simply had enough of all that stuff.

It also doesn't really match up within expectations of cryptos for a transnational currency.  There's also price concerns too where, traditionally, merchant sell off exceeds userbase expansion.

It has begun!

Using paysafecards to buy Guldencoin is a Crypto first.



Paysafegulden.com is an easy buy platform for Guldencoin. The website was setup in collaboration with Paysafecard and inspired by Bitsms. In order to buy Guldencoin with euros people mainly use Litebit, which of course is a lovely service, but you have to get a verified account, use your bank account or credit card and when you don’t want to, the only solution was using Bitcoin. But to get Bitcoin with euros, you’ll find the process to be similar.



With Paysafegulden.com we eliminate the necessity of a bank account or the need for an account on our website. You buy a Paysafecard, either online or in a store near you (using cash for example), and simply fill out the form on our website.
