Devs! you said the broker smart contract is doable? when can I test the software? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Thank you for all the valuable discussion here. Have been following this thread for a while.
Any feedback concerning the distribution model though?
Regards Edward
The distribution model hasn't been finalized yet. We're still looking for more feedback from the community. Thank you for your interest! Your Cryptonit exchange, which is by the way a very nicely done crypto currency exchange, sets an exemplary standard by listing only open source software based currencies. Thanks, and it's really great to see you here!

Devs! you said the broker smart contract is doable? when can I test the software? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) It seems the broker smart contract solves a real world business problem and sure, we will try to give you the broker smart contract function. Could you specify the main parameters for the contract please?

Could you specify the main parameters for the contract please? So what is it? A broker platform or an IoT platform? Our focus is most definitely on the internet of things platforms, but whenever we meet with hardware integrators the first question is always "How can we acquire Gadgetcoin?" Surely we cannot avoid Gadgetcoin being listed on exchanges, but following the MtGox and Mintpal fiasco we can see a lot of resistance from new digital currency users when it comes to putting money in exchanges. Looking at it from a convenience standpoint it would also be better for the users to be able to buy Gadgetcoin in the wallet. This is because it would be the same place that the user is creating, monitoring, and configuring smart contracts so it would streamline the acquisition process of Gadgetcoin. Using a practical example, a hardware integrator for a security system would not need to go to the exchange to buy Gadgetcoin if the wallet has this decentralized exchange feature, instead he can buy 10 GDC to operate their 10 hardware modules from the wallet directly to simplify the process. How does this work? The hardware integrator creates a smart contract that buys 10 GDC with the exchange rate of 0.005 BTC. Every gadget coin user will be able to see that smart contract in their wallet, and if you wish to sell your coin, then you will enter into the deal and sell 10 GDC for 0.05 BTC for the hardware integrator user. Furthermore, so far our biggest problem when dealing with hardware integrators, we have to educate people how to use exchanges to acquire Gadgetcoins, and we would rather cut this step out. If the Gadgetcoin wallet offers a decentralized exchange feature then it lowers the risk for our users by not having to use potentially risky exchanges. Please read our white paper for more information about the decentralized exchange feature.

Please read our white paper for more information about the decentralized exchange feature. Thanks for your thoughtful reply and explaining the decentralized exchange feature. From hardware integrator end user viewpoint that make sense. If you make easier for users to use the platform, then you will have a better chance to grow your user base. However, if the majority of GadgetCoin is dealt for BTC and FIAT within the GadgetCoin wallet, that means you will loss the interest of whales who make their most money on exchanges. To be honest, I am not sure what is better for a coin, having the whales like Bobsurplus on their side or not :-))) but again, from hardware integrator viewpoint to simplify the usage of a system is a good idea.

have a ico?
There won't be an ICO for this coin. We certainly want to be financially rewarded for our work, but before selling the coin we will release a fully functional software and Internet of Things platform.

how you going to compete with ethereum and bitbay? too many coins try to do decentralized markets, exchanges, smart contracts.
No, GadgetCoin doesn't implement a decentralized market place, we are focusing only on one area and trying to do that very well, which is smart contracts on Internet of Things. Ethereum and BitBay are great projects and we don't compete with them, GadgetCoin will be more a complement to existing solutions. Even Ethereum and BitBay will be able to use our API, and we envision a mutually beneficial partnership with all digital currencies. Do you know Tilecoin? Can you compare these two great project?

I had this question myself. None of the software exists, both projects are at the design phase so I started to read the white paper of this coin. It's a 28 pages material and I haven't finished yet ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) The Tilecoin OP says "Our White Paper - In progress". It's hard to compare two concepts when only once concept is presented, we need to wait with the comparison until Tilecoin publish their white paper.

Thank you for your question. TileCoin is a great project, I have no doubt both TileCoin and Bitbay will be very successful coins. I hope these three projects, TileCoin, Bitbay and GadgetCoin will find the common ground for collaboration in the Internet of Things, we will be more than happy to cooperate to bring digital currencies to the hardware field. As for the comparison, probably our white paper is the best start, we try to describe there what GadgetCoin is.

We are not endorsing such multi-layer broker contract, but this is a very interesting use case and we are happy to stress test our smart contract engine using this scenario. In this theoretical, experimental business relation the constraints are the following - Both your seller and buyer clients must have a GadgetCoin wallet. You are absolutely correct about the requirement for digital signature, but both your seller and buyer clients must sign the contract. In your description only you, the broker and your buyer client signs the contract. I think to model a correct relation via the smart contract all parties must sign the contract. - If the contract for a theoretical GadgetCoin sale in which you the broker sells GadgetCoin on behalf of the GadgetCoin Foundation, the recipient of the Bitcoin will be the Foundation that redistributes the commissions to you and your multi layer parties. Is that acceptable in your particular use case?
