Everyone,

After a chat with fluffypony (Riccardo Spagni) - Monero Core Dev.

It appears Monero (https://getmonero.org) is a perfect solution
They have a solid built network running already with an extremely active development team

a. Monero is secure, private and untraceable.
b. The technical aspects such a block size are dynamic and will grow as Monero grows. unlike Bitcoin.
c. tx_extra script allows us to pack much data and even encrypted data into a single transaction without any fragmentation (This is a huge plus)

I cannot fault anything and with the support from the #monero-dev IRC Channel, This project can be finished on time and be more secure, quicker and better than ever I thought. Not to mention how easy and nice it was to chat to a core dev almost instantly and what a nice guy he was too.

From a user perspective nothing changes apart from having to download the monero client/node which is a whole load faster than Bitcoin core.

This is the way we are going, I believe this is the right direction of the project.

I will update with more tomorrow.

Do you have a moniker that you used before this one? It is pretty a new account to just jump on here and start an ICO.

So you are Sebastian Bates, can you provide proof and link which Sebastian Bates you are.

Sorry for being so direct but I do my due diligence before backing anything and just because you talked to fluffy, that is not enough for me to trust you or your partner who is a noob as well.

Hi,

I thought I would introduce my project to this thread as we are launching a side project or Dapp as some people call it.

Ophion - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1464725.msg14892191#msg14892191
https://www.ophion.io

Ophion was planned to be built upon the Bitcoin network but due to discussion in the thread and discussion with fluffypony we have decided to utilize monero due to the absolute perfect fit

We are currently into our second week of ICO. But you can read the website https://www.ophion.io - Just ignore what now says Bitcoin, that needs to be updated and we need to change a few things before development starts.

## Feature List ##

Decentralized P2P Platform
AES-256 Encrypted Platform
Asset System & Built-in coin mixing
No Logging - At All!
Tor/i2p / Socks4/4a/5 Integration
2 of 3 Multisig Automation
Seller/Buyer Rating System
Encrypted Private Messaging System
Public Store Creation
Hidden Store Creation

Hope this fits well with Monero, it just looks incredible currency.

SSL Certificate Support for Hidden Stores

The Ophion trading platform will utilize the OPH colored coin.
In order to obtain the coin you must join the crowdsale, as the rest of the coins will be burned after the crowdsale ends.

Hate ICO (too many scams) why not lose the IPO and get crowdfunded and use XMR? No need for yet another coin.
