last part probably added by me. but "i will be %100 with karma" you have said it many time.
i am not going to be holding you up for it in case you do change your mind. i am not going to come after you using that to base my accusations.
Well, as usual. I am still here, doing what I can.
How do you think Karma should proceed for the next 6 months? It would be interesting to hear everyone's ideas.
There has been a lot of interesting and forward thinking ideas coming from Karma.
I am not as invested both financially and emotionally as some/most here so my thoughts are to be taken on that basis.
At this point it is my opinion that the big ideas about changing the world are tantamount to running before you can walk. Although an admirable philosophy and one which should be pursued in the future, this philosophy cannot be achieved without some kind of adoption by people in the developed world.
In the first instance I believe a push should be made to make Karma the mainstream twitter and facebook tipping currency. The name is perfect and no tip bot has made it out of the crypto circle and into the mainstream yet (Please correct me if I'm wrong about this).
All community efforts should be put into this exercise for the coin to gain some traction. A huge push by the community to get Karma out there to people and organisations, fan pages etc should be made.
This would involve a huge giveaway by those holding lots of coins but at this point I see it as the only hope for the coin to survive.
Why hodl millions of coins if they are worthless?
I don't believe any of us is talking about changing the world.
However, it would be foolish to do something that has not yet been proven to work. There is probably a reason that "...no tip bot has made it out of the crypto circle and into the mainstream yet " as you say. It's probably because the mainstream does not care to use such a thing.
But why change the ways of the mainstream? Why not copy that same model that has proven wildly successful for M-PESA in a similar country, but using Karma? It could even work by SMS messaging just like M-PESA (but only agents needed, starting with a single agent)
You're going about doing something that has not been done before (and no one may care about) versus something that has already been proven to work
You agree that we should not "change the world" but then proceed to talk about changing the mainstream. Wouldn't it be easier to find those who actually need Karma or something like Karma and start from there?
