I feel we've got lots to show currently for GEO  

Here's our 3 most recent demo videos:

I've also updated our landing page on http://geocoin.cash to give a sneak peak of the new MapBox interface, HTTPS will also be added shortly for the logins.  
We're also currently working on redoing our promotional website http://geo.money.

As we announced in our roadmap, our first focus will be migrating the UBQ blockchain, and then we will have more time to focus on our cool GEO items like the MapBox interface launch, mobile apps and added features.  This is an ongoing project and we will continue to develop this project and community into the future.

I really like this project. But the music in your youtubes  will alienate anyone over 25. You have enough challenges, don't shoot yourself in the foot.

Would be cool if there was adventurous music, and that it would change based on the environment you are in. Kind of like Ultima Online.

I agree. You gotta make the music more user friendly.

They can integrate HTML5 audioplayer and everyone will be able to choose their own music for little payment(1 GeoCoin per week), lol

Haha you guys don't like my high energy music!?  I just wanted people to get pumped up and excited about GEO!  Maybe a future custom audio player is in order afterall    I'm also over 25

So the trackable Geos, is the main website's locations for these physical coins accurate? I would like to collect one.

[Creasian]

will there be a return investment in this coin in the future?

The most accurate locations can be found by clicking on a GEO symbol and following the link to the trackable item's page on geocaching.com

I think this coin makes a great long term investment but for short term gains you might be better off looking elsewhere.  XRP has a strong upward dynamic at the moment.

I also like this project a lot, I see a great future here.
I think the possibilities is endless if you really think about it.
I see this is both for advertising/event based applications, for games and for health apps.
Any other ideas?

I had a weird thought that it might be used to restrain the pace of delivery vehicles to the legal speed limit.  So Donatos or whoever would automatically place GEO's along the path the delivery person was taking, but they would only be valid if the delivery person was there at a certain time or later, and not after the delivery.  So if they drive too fast, they don't get the coin.  Kinda strange but I think it might actually work.

Cool. How would you be able to advertise ? Using your own coins ?

With Health apps, do you mean walking running for them or ?

I was also thinking about "Walking/running for fx Unicef". So fx every "Unicef" coin you pick-up would be donated to Unicef ? But where would the value of the coin come from ?

I like it   But when I saw your concept, I immediately thought about retired people.  They have time to kill,  need exercise,  and it's a fun/exciting activity!  Treasure hunting, hell yeah!  A scarey close parallel would be those metal detector treasure hunters.  Although with this,  you don't need to spend 1000 dollars on equipment.  I think retired people are a great potential demographic for this project.  Remember,  as the years go by,  the percentage of older people who are comfortable with electronics will steadily increase.  Just a thought.  I'm glad you can take constructive criticism with a smile, I'm rooting for you guys!

PS  I was a little concerned that you demonstrated in the video walking while looking at the phone,  might be a potential liability issue,  I dunno.  You can go on Liveleak and watch videos of people who walked into ponds because they were looking at their phones and drowned.

I'm not trying to be a dick. It's easy for me to point out the failures of the man in the ring. Just trying to help.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”  -Theodore Roosevelt

No.

They already have such mechanisms.  Satellite linked devices monitor the movement of vehicles, and they govern (or limit) the top speed of vehicles.

Hi, I saw there will be some sort of swap coming up. When does that happen?

[weifa]

Retired people are also very involved in the geocaching community as you said they have a lot of free time on their hands and like to spend their time outdoors.

We're working with the UBQ devs to coordinate the upcoming swap.  As soon as we have a set date, I will let you all know here well in advance. 

[Shooriko]

Hey, just a few suggestions for the upcoming app launch. You should program higher populated areas to have significantly more GeoCoins spawning, than areas that are not as populated.

Чтo мoжнo кyпить нaпpямyю (бeз кoнвepтaции) зa GeoCoin?

[alexinv]

 as far as I know nothing only pleasure to possess this coin and hope for further growth

What about drone caching? Where you fly drones cool places and take pictures. Then you get rewarded for adding the unique places to the map.

What about kids who are used to play PokemonGo ? The kids will be very used to doing this kind of playing.

But do you have a main target of users ?
