I still keeping signature. Would you consider to continue campaign? At least for seniors and higher? I would continue participating in it even with lover payment then 0.12 btc.
As mentioned, we are considering it. We are currently low on funding for this sort of advertising - we are focusing the small amount of funds that we have (which are all personal) into getting listed on larger exchanges and cementing our affiliate program.
From our OP:
We are considering initiating an affiliate program to help GreenCoin expand and grow. Currently how GreenCoin works:
A block award is split between the Foundation and the winning miner 50%/50%. All of the Foundation's 50% awarded coins are given to Producers daily based on their net carbon offset as calculated by the foundation (currently 0.481 kg CO2 per kWh solar electricity and 7.167 kg CO2 per gallon pure biofuel).
The affiliate program would work as follows:
- The 50% split for miner/Foundation remains the same (this is hard coded into the coin)
- The Foundation would award 90% of the coin directly to Producers as is done now, and 10% to Affiliates in a 3 Tiered system. A direct referral (Tier 1) receives 6% of their referred's production coins, a secondary referral (the referred of your referred) you would receive 3% of their Production coins, and 1% for Tier 3.
- All Producers will become Affiliates by default, however, an Affiliate-Only is a new type of user that can receive coins. This is the first type of user that is not a miner or Producer that can receive coins. However, we feel that incentivizing Affiliates to expand the network is a very good use of coins.
We welcome feedback. Given the community is still rather small I think we can come to an accord on whether this is a good idea and good use of future coins, and can move forward based on that feedback. We have 16 producers so a majority of 9 votes is needed to implement the system. The Foundation officially recommends implementing the new system. There will be a cost involved however, and I am currently looking into the costs (so what I am saying here is even if the system gets voted in, I might not be able to afford it but I'm trying my best. GRE has already cost me >$20k.)
We are hoping to put this into our next signature campaign, assuming we can continue.
We've already put a large amount of funds into getting this project to where we are now. Hopefully we can raise more funding to continue.
It's a pity your campaign closed down
Liked it and above all like the ideas and the principles behind your coin.
I'm not going to change my signature soon.
Feel free to tip me from time to time if you like but even if you won't... big up for your coin.
If you post a GRE addy to your account, I'd be happy to send a few your way.
