MERRY Christmas GreenCoiners!!
Hoping for a intensely productive, and carbon reductive, 2015!![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsecure.static.tumblr.com%2F901e373451ce628a12e33ce06ad4ab48%2Fp8xbaqx%2FFkTms9ox7%2Ftumblr_static_decorated-christmas-tree.jpg&t=665&c=RFaKoFJrfl1mgw)

If you take the current price of GreenCoin ( Bittrex / Allcoin -- currently 3 satoshi) and Bitcoin ($315), and the average amount of miles driven by Americans every year (13,460), here's a graph showing the amount of GreenCoin you could buy to completely offset your the CO2 from your vehicle per year (using the current GreenCoin/CO2 conversion): ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F7MnCPX3.png&t=665&c=nNyLE_RwjZ5Cuw) For $800 to $1,600 per year most people could completely offset their carbon from driving. Vehicle MPG values: USM Mine Vehicle, Prius, Dodge Ram.

Hi biodieselchris, I am relatively new to Greencoin, and wondered why you started a new thread. Is Greencoin still backed by the same team? Cheers.

I was looking to add some graphics and such to the OP anyway so this was easiest to re-launch it. I continue to work on the coin I am now reaching out to solar producers via mail to solicit sign-ups. I think if the network grows in 2015 the coin can end up catching on and being successful as a carbon emission offset crediting system.

You all should ask Byronp from Atomic-Trade to add you.... unlike Bittrex all you have to do is convince him that your cause is just...

I think lowering the number of coins will be a good start...

That would require a fork though. We went with a high number for "growth" purposes. E.g., if all of the world's ~ 35 Gigatonnes of CO2 emissions were eventually being accounted for there would still be a "meaningful amount" of coins per kg CO2: 0.00028571 GRE per 1 kg CO2 in this case. As a reference, 1 kg CO2 is the consequence of driving an average car (25 mpg) about 3 miles. Making carbon "personal" and attaching it to everyday life is one big piece of the sequestration puzzle that I think is currently missing from the overall, global solution. So this was something I advocated for. From a purely "is it a great crypto" perspective, and in reference to the slew of other altcoins out there, is it too high of an absolute number? I don't know really - it's just a number, does it really move the needle if 1M coins = $10 or 1k?

Personally I think you would get a better response from the community with a much smaller number of coins. I'll do it before you get too far along in the project...

If we need to fork to fix any coinbase transaction mining issues we would just do it then.

Is the GRcoin team planning a coin value recovery strategy? It appears to be in freeeeeeefall towards the dreaded single satoshi...
Do you have any e-commerce arrangements in place to exchange GRE for physical goods?
Do you have an advertising campaign for expanding the usage?

I think the trick is to grow the number of Producers and that is what I am currently working on.
