100%. Yes, if they never release the coins, we will burn them from the GROWS total and continue forward. That being said, such an event will not take place for at least 5 years or until Cryptopia releases any coins that they may still have. It's a tricky situation, but we are going to do our best to support it for as long as possible. We are open to discussion about other ideas prior to launch, although this scenario has already undergone months of deep consideration. We may also do a ZOOM meeting soon to discuss this further. For more info on the ZOOM meetups, stay tuned through our Telegram and our website of course.

The GrowChain team has decided to support the GRWI community with the best scenario possible. GrowChain is supporting the swap of GRWI in a 1:50 ratio as part of the greater structure of GROWS. The GRWI community was greatly affected by the hack of Cryptopia Exchange, it is estimated that over 60% of their supply was stored with them prior to the hacking event. It is unknown if / when the GRWI that is still on Cryptopia Exchange might be released. The community also doesn't know if the coins are hacked and being stored by the hacker themselves. Cryptopia has been liquidated and all decision are in the hands of Grant Thorton Liquidation. That being said, the coin itself has been on other live markets consistently since release. There was a listing on multiple exchanges who seemed to also followed the path of Cryptopia during the last crypto winter. Blockchain Financial and Unnamed.Exchange have been available but unfortunately most coins appear to be stuck with Cryptopia. It has been almost 3 years now and the community behind GRWI deserves new life for their sacrifice. The GROWS team has deeply considered the affects and has created a solution which fits both scenarios. It is the ultimate intention to see the concept that came to life in 2015 reach its full fruition. If you have other ideas how you'd like to see GrowChain proceed, we are more than welcome to continue the conversation here, or in our Telegram Channel:

A message from our new Lead Blockchain Developer:

"Hi Everyone! My name is Sharath and I’m the new lead blockchain programmer for GrowChain. Let me introduce myself. I am a Blockchain enthusiast. Computer Science graduate from National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan. I have over 2 years of experience in the blockchain industry. I’ve previously worked as a Blockchain Research Engineer at ‘Starbit Innovation’ and Blockchain Engineer at ‘Machvision Inc’. I have a complete understanding of blockchain technologies like Bitcoin, Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric. My dream is to explore potential use cases of blockchain technology in real-world use cases other than crypto.

I want to say Thank You for accepting me into this new community and I will be happy to answer technical questions along the way. GrowChain is very exciting.

- Sharath Kumar

GrowChain"

We are overjoyed to have Sharath on the team. He is a true asset to the project and will be a key player throughout our evolution. Sharath embodies the ideals of GrowChain to the core. Cheers!

Is this the official Bitcointalk account for Morpheus Network? Or are we missing something? We really like the path Morpheus has taken.

GrowChain Blockchain Announcement

GrowChain is going Quantum!

That’s right, after months of deliberation and testing scenarios we have struck the gavel’s sounding block. Quantum (QTUM) blockchain design is extremely robust and fits our business model perfectly. GrowChain is built from the ground up to give our clients the ultimate benefit overall. Quantum Technology allows us to keep our fees low while encrypting information for our users quickly and easily. GrowChain will merge the smart contract element of Ethereum with the blockchain characteristics of Bitcoin, known for its stability and transaction scalability.

GrowChain will not be doing an ICO, we have already secured private funding. GrowChain will not be Proof-of-Work (POW). We will be utilizing Proof-of-Stake (POS) in order to reward our holders and secure our network. GrowChain will be derived completely by helping members of the Growers International alliance from the start, this the least we can do considering the hacks and events that happened with Cryptopia. The swap will be available shortly after auditing and testing of our codebase and will remain open for an unprecedented 5 years (or until Cryptopia completes compensation). Not only can users create dApps on GrowChain if they wish, they can also execute Etherium Smart contracts directly on the GrowChain hybrid network. We are offering clients the ability to create some of the cheapest NFTs on the market and deploy them safely to their users with extreme efficiency, by the thousands. Yes, this is what we can now offer with GrowChain.

The details on our tokenomics and how we will be using this new feature set will be forthcoming. As foretold, this will bring GrowChain to the bleeding edge of current blockchain technology, thanks to Quantum. We have recently brought on board an amazing talent to handle all things Bitcoin Core, Ethereum Solidity, and all things GrowChain in terms of backend development. Currently in private testnet. Public testnet auditing and stress-testing will be available given a fortnight as private testing proves successful. We will keep the public updated via our Telegram channel along the way. Thank you to all of the early members and future supporters. We are really excited to share more information with you.

Yes I am currently trying to get my status upgraded so that I can post Graphics instead of just text. Want to do this first for our projects publics final ANN.

Our web-design is complete. We are now applying the backed system (Bard Canvas) and if all goes well the site will be online by the end of the work week. Now that the general design is done, we will pull elements from it and make a nice BitcoinTalk Announcement here. We also need to update this account to at least Junior Member status before being to post graphics. Thank you to everyone for checking in.

Yes you are right. I will update the title to "Pre-ANN" instead. The goal is to have a much nicer announcement for bitcointalk users shortly after our website is ready. Our goal is to have the website online within 10 days and bitcointalk variant online quickly afterward.

It's good to have you here!

GrowChain's Vision
Imagination. Some call it the sixth sense, others would refer to it as a natural Psychic ability. A super power that all humans have. As Albert Einstein has said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge” and we, the GrowChain team together with its community, fully believe and have faith in  that affirmation. Our vision was born imagining a Utopia version of the world, where blockchain brings its power back to the people.
Allowing mankind to finally believe in the food supply system, trust and transparency creates an environment that many people from our century haven’t experienced. International Business are operated in a faster and trustworthy way, striving to cooperate instead of compete. The results of this are reflected to the final consumer, who is able to verify, track and decide what kind of food they want to consume.
 
Envisioning what this technology can bring to humanity in the near future, our energy and efforts are channeled to this present moment. GrowChain’s vision is focused on designing a user-friendly system, integrating IoT and blockchain technology to allow users and participants to add and track information of any product in the network.

Let’s imagine the future envisioned by many great authors and creatives, the sci-fi techno-society that is our “cyberpunk” destiny. A reality where class warfare has gone to the extreme and the division between the rich and poor is a basis for what will be known as crypto-capitalism. By allowing governments and corporations to regulate Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, we opened the door to our own enslavement. They have complete control over our opportunities, our health, our money and ultimately our freedom. In this version of our timeline, the power of blockchain is sadly being abused for evil, greed, and power.

More global pandemics arise and people lose faith in the quality and safety of food products. Millions of “lower class” people die from contamination and disease. The new world order uses this as an opportunity to restrict and regulate all consumable products globally. This leads to food scarcity and panic. Not only is there very little food available, but it also becomes unclear if “black market” produce is free from viruses or harmful pathogens. There is absolutely no trust in supply chain systems.

By the 2500s, things have gotten so bad that corporations (gov) literally control exactly when and what you can consume. 100 years pass as their system slowly fails. The frogs in the pot finally start feeling the warm water starting to boil. It’s time for change - real change this time. There is an uprising. A global war is initiated by the people to take back their planet. “The Great Crypto War” is what it will be known as. This is when the power of blockchain can finally be brought back to the people where it belongs.

After the great war, organic farming and sustainable living took center stage. A new global culture is born. Powered by GrowChain.

We can take a different path. We don’t need to go to war. GrowChain is fighting right now to prevent such a future from becoming a reality.

The GrowChain is more than a utility and a tool, it is a tetrahedral pyramid. A monolith. It is the "Eureka Moment". Services like GrowChain will be required to maintain trust and transparency between creators, distributors, retailers and end users.

The website will be http://growchain.org if you want to bookmark the URL. Branding and web design are currently being developed and will be online likely within the next 15-30 days. Coin specs and tokenomics will be released around the same time, token address / specs will come before details on the swap process. Thanks for your interest in GrowChain.

As of last week (5/17), GrowChain has entered full time development. The core team consists of 7 members with company registration and leadership in Taipei, Taiwan. Project leaders Tordan Ferreira and Ryan Wright are based in Asia (Taiwan) while the rest of the team is in Mexico and the USA.

GrowChain is the evolution of a concept conceived in 2015 and attempted to be brought to life in 2017. Due to unforeseen circumstances (namely exchange “hacks”) - our team, community and project in general suffered hefty setbacks. This project being GrowersClub / Growers International Inc (registered and trademarked incorporation) / GrowersCoin / GrowChain (soon to be registered and trademarked). We are committed to seeing the vision become a reality and this is a major step forward. GrowChain will be using the latest cryptocurrency technology to build tools and services for those seeking to offer more trust and transparency within their product supply chain and operating logistics. GrowChain will offer this and much more, launching 3rd or 4th quarter of this year. Official updates and progress starting now.

This last week, the team focused on researching new blockchain tech “HRC20” which is being developed by AltHash, a crypto technology company based out of Chicago, IL USA. An internal vote for the forking chain will be put forward to the team this week and a decision will be made. Announcement of our future blockchain will take place within just a few days. We are also focusing on the GrowChain tokenomics which will be presented to the public shortly after blockchain confirmation. Our logo and branding is also being worked on by a skilled set of designers, we hope to show examples in the coming weeks. A full announcement and website will be released after branding is complete.

Our goal will be to update at least once a week. Some updates will be more technical while others may be more philosophical or visionary. Please feel free to ask any questions. We are here and working everyday as a team, sometimes 10 hours a day. This is going to move fast. Everything is on the table and details will be expanded upon in further writings. Thank you!
