I'm working on building BitPhone.net a BitCoin Payphone.

I'm not sure I like the idea of a "phone coin" like Voircoin.  This seems to complicate things too much.  Why not just use Bitcoin to pay for the calls?  Why create a new crypto around it?

why?

because its the perfect tech to set up a p2p telco platform.  what good is a bitcoin phone if you are just using bitcoin to buy into a centralized server?


Because you have to to call phones..  Sure P2P would work better but requires both parties have a browser.  ie skype..
You can't use Skype like a payphone, you have to register and have a balance to call phones..
I'm not competing with P2P, just letting you use Bitcoin to call phones..

How is a coin a telco platform ?

hmm isnt it a telco if you have your own number which other networks can call or text or vice versa. then your coins will be your balance to use if you want to call or text
