We absolutely have an token bounty program which can be found here : https://medium.com/@Ethino_Casino/ethino-bounty-launch-222837118f6

With development of the platform and more users on it the token value will grow

The moment we ever move from that safe spot, the US would grab us. The US might play dirty tricks, accuse of us other things ... whatever they can. The best approach is a layered one. There are benefits to customers too: No subpoenas or warrants possible.

RAM drives mean we have an constantly-streaming encrypted backup system, yes. And it does mean if something fails, we end up needing to manually enter the key to restore. I believe this tradeoff is worth protecting everyone's data.

Gj on keeping up with everything here, Atriz.

I almost covered and discussed "priority dates" in the video, but we decided to keep it simpler and shorter. That video has not been released yet, but since it doesn't cover that point; I'll answer here.

So, the way it works is that filing a "patent pending" gives you a "priority date" on the day it is filed. There are no prior patents that would override our patent, but there is a chance that another "patent pending", filed prior to ours, would conflict and have an earlier priority date. There is no way to know, until one is published, but we feel that it is unlikely. Most of the patents being filed are in regards to settling securities using a custodial account (depository for internal settlements) or are related to blockchain innovations.

I doubt that others were focused on the methods in our patents, because "atomic swaps" did not exist, meaning the value was limited (e.g. required 3rd-parties that charge a fee). However, I had the foresight to know that it would be possible one day (and bitcoin to ethereum atomic swapping is already possible now, much sooner than I anticipated). As a result, we will be able to use these virtually free methods and avoid using even Shapeshift (fee-based).

Is this right?

Any insights on this?

One thing was health checks. As an outsider, it seems like a good idea. It sounds straightforward. Health checks actually received a very negative response from sex workers. If we advertise that everyone is certified healthy, then clients are more likely to pressure providers into doing unsafe acts.

Hi Dan. Good question. I sort of eluded to this in an earlier reply, but here's a more detailed overview...

We hired several advisors who were very qualified freelancers. The goal is to get to know them and see if they are fit to become a full part of the team or not. While some advisors have given great feedback, we do not want to clutter our site/info with a lot of advisors that may not be brought on long-term. Unlike most ICOs, we want our advisors to be truly engaged and bring strength to achieve success for the project.

Some early advisors were not brought on long-term, despite giving good feedback, because they were simply unreliable or difficult to coordinate with for meetings, feedback, and decisions. Ultimately, we only highlight those we feel contribute to the overall goals of this project and who dedicate the time to truly help it succeed.

If it were classified a security it would be subject to much more regulation?

Good question  or goal is to support the featured creators on the website and whitepaper and announce a few larger names in December

I can't (yet), until they release a public statement about Upfiring (likely an analysis of whether or not it is considered a security - of course we strongly believe that it is not, and do not intend for UFR to be used as such)

Yes, but some advisors (not all are listed) are also being compensated with CASH as well, as they are more involved in the day-to-day decision making process than most ICO advisors. So, those who perform a specific function are compensated for their time immediately and also have a vested interest in the success of the project by dropping their normal rates in exchange for tokens.

Not something we'd talk about until we figure out their exact exposure. Some people are more confident being publicly associated with our project than others.
