swap pit, market central?

I like Market Central, not a fan of swap pit.

What does the rest of the community think?

I was playing with the idea of "Trading Post"

[madmartyk]

Trading post is like swap pit to me.

Trading post is like swap pit to me. 

True, just different words for those of you who don't know, we are discussing what the name should be for the new marketplace we are building. So far here are the following suggestions:

• swap pit
• market central
• trading post

Let's see.

My suggestion would be a wordplay on quid pro quo: quidproq.io

because it is related to Counterparty
maybe stockparty ? silly name ?

I like Market Central. others: Trading Zone, Swap Space, MyBay, CounterMarket.

We want to avoid anything relating to folding and crypto in general so we can attract more users outside of the space. So far here is the updated list

• swap pit
• market central
• trading post
• quidproq.io
• Trading Zone
• MyBay
• Swap Space

I like some of those, just added them to the list

1. I am actually pushing the distributions through as we speak. The first one is about to commence from the 4/13 payouts. LTB had to do an overhaul and upgrade their system is why it was down for so long

2. We have someone else we are talking with about doing distributions a cheaper and more efficient way, but we cannot release yet who this is. We will keep the community posted on this

3. We still do plan on the off chain system as for the long haul, that will be the cheapest more efficient way to do distributions

I will keep the community posted today when distributions begin to go out on twitter and here in the forums

I would avoid MyBay like the plague!!!  don't even need attention that way!!

Agreed, that could be some bad attention that we do not want. So here is the updated list:

great
thank you for updates about distribution
i agree with above comment, would also avoid any name with 'Bay' in it..  unless eBay themselves will start accepting FLDC

[FoldingCoin]

All distributions are caught up and paid out including todays.

[Askuzai]

I was just wondering why no one's done this. Really spectacular project.

Wallet set up, folding initiated -- consider me in.

Thanks for your support! Since you are new I will fill you in on what we are doing to drive value to FLDC:

https://letstalkbitcoin.com/forum/post/is-there-incentize-to-buy-fldc-aside-from-speculation

Basically the above explains that we are building an ebay style marketplace in which we will only accept FLDC for transaction payments. Let me know if you have any questions about anyhting!

Interesting idea. Would be nice if donation of mined coins to scientific organization could somehow be tied into fiat value so one could receive tax deductions for it.

That is actually something we have thought of and are working on. There is a lot of factors that come into place when trying to figure that out, so this is something we are not only working on, but will need legal advice on how to go about doing this. Stay tuned though

[Askuzai]

I think you might encounter more difficulty with adoption on the recipient's side than you would the legal front, though it is a very interesting question. 10 years of freelance design, 3 years of non-profit event planning and 2 years of mobile enterprise project management here -- would be happy to donate some efforts to a project like this. Shoot me a message at https://twitter.com/askuzai or here if you need another pair of eyes on this project.

We would absolutely love the help! We currently have 3 part time devs, 2 partially full time devs, and one full time dev. Adding more eyes/suggestions/help is always welcome! My email is rross@foldingcoin.net if you wish to shoot me an email and maybe we can schedule a skype sometime here soon. I will DM you as well on twitter
