the thread died now we are not discussing anything related to the superblock and companion coin?
The number 1 issue is we have no developer. I think that needs to sink in with the community. There is no active developer. I don't think people grasp the full implications of a coin with no captain. I am invested in many coins and all that have had no clear leadership just die. QRK will be no different.
Qrk has no way of attracting any development team, any marketing team or any project management teams without funds.
The small teams we have doing things for qrk will have zero chance against fully motivated and funded teams other coins have.
The game looks interesting of course i will buy some shares.
A full gaming arcarde with credits bought in qrk and winnings paid out in qrk with a small 2-5% running costs charge for ROI investors would be a good start. However now qrk is not worth much it would take a huge number of qrks to finance this.
I agree CH - I was and am a strong proponent of a companion coin for exactly these reasons - we need a development fund, a real stake for the developer and development team to keep people motivated, and merge mining to secure the blockchains. The companion coin can be set up so it is not in direct competition with Quark proper - my idea was to give the coin a personal/business finance slant, and to see if we could give it ring signatures for anon features. I would've liked to see a dual wallet with in wallet trading set up so that you could convert between the two coins. Quark would then be the day to day transparent transaction currency, while the partner was the
personal bank account/back end that had anon features. In this manner, we could advocate for merchant adoption of Quark proper, and then perhaps set up banking services for the companion.
Its all just a matter of figuring out scenarios where you have clear product differentiation.
But I agree - we absolutely need a development fund to compete. If we had one, we wouldn't need to be selling shares of the game, etc - it would just be getting done.
