Hi,
I'm Shannon the developer for COVAL
A quick bit of my history:

I'm currently chief architect at http://Loyyal.com

Pitch by me, 2 years before azure blockchain as a service: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=la-kG1Cb2II

Cryptolina profile: http://www.cryptolina.com/code.html

Post when I worked mastercoin:

GitHub: https://github.com/genecyber

 I built this: http://archive.wired.com/culture/lifestyle/news/2005/06/67975?currentPage=all

Exactly the kind of thinking I am interested in.

@sebio said it amazingly well! I'm at lunch and can't post at length right now but YES you got it. Bbiab

My position within Loyyal is not changing. I am still and will continue to be Chief Architect.

Part of the services cleanup includes locking these old threads if possible and making an official one. And don't sell yourself short, one of the reasons I'm excited about working with this coin is because of the excitement in these threads.

Too many moving parts to put a rate on things at this point. To that point, the markets might be a factor. Ultimately it's going to come down to the transparency of the financials and the utility of the programs I build. The question is how much do *you* want an Nrg voucher to be worth? The programs I build will be innovative and fun. They will some of the earliest of a new type of program realized using the best technology that sits on top of the best technology.

The governance model will be released soon along with use cases that will make existing holders of the rewards as happy as the people buying more. It's my mission to realize this potential as soon as possible. It's the whole reason I was excited to work with both Loyyal as well as with the NRG token.

The growth potential is monumental. Anyone with businesses are welcomed to sign up under our program and add to the value of our rewards and the growth of the platform. I'm sure most people visiting this board knows someone who could utilize an easy to build loyalty platform. Or know app developers with a clever idea.

For example: take a web developer, mix in a hybrid mobile app platform, this API: https://abbyy.technology/en:products:cloud-ocr:start and you've got an app to let people earn rewards based on their spending anywhere. Anonomize the data and now it's a dataset to sell to market research firms. Mix in a machine learning API and now the app can make recommendations. Tie in an ad network and offer relevant coupons within the app. Each revenue stream is largely automated and each adds value to the rewards that you all have a balance of.

Most people won't make an app, but every time I frequent a store that's got a crappy rewards program and tell them what is being built their faces light up.

I challenge everyone to take a look at:
Big data API's
Fintech API's
Cognitive API's
Ad networks
Chat bot platforms
Slack
Payment engines
IoT devices

And put a few pieces together in your head and discuss on the NRG slack channel.

Next, come up with creative ways to "spend" other programs rewards. Maybe an API is free that can offer some service for cheap or free. Take fivr for example. Partner programs want their points to be spent, preferable for less than will take place if they are spent at their place of business. If a program will buy "spent" points back from our RApps at 20 rewards for 5$ and our RApp redemption offers fivr redemptions for 30 of these partner points... That's a win of $2.50 per redemption. That's a significant amount of value to back our reward buyback rate.

Don't pick too much on the examples, they were me shooting from the hip to illustrate the potential we've got to work with.

Again I challenge you to start thinking in terms of things we can wire up. As someone said before I can't do this alone, I bring the tools that will allow us to do amazing things.

While I don't have a team yet, I'd be crazy to think I could grow a network on my own. I'll be seeking help once I get the basic services moved and working smoothly. Are you volunteering? If so, msg me and we can talk details.

Many programs can choose to accept all available rewards on the network. No need for us to specifically market. Although I'm not shy when it comes to making partnerships either.

Vouchers will enable a swap for rewards that live within Loyyal, associated with Rewards programs built by SynrgTech these rewards can be redeemed at the RApp redemption locations as well as at any other programs on the Loyyal platform that accept the rewards. Accepting rewards is easy for other programs and ultimately means SynrgTech will pay other programs any time someone redeems any of our rewards there. The inverse is also true, any partner rewards issued at our RApp locations get sold back to the programs. The more programs on the network that accept partner rewards, or allow redemption of their rewards with us. The greater the value of rewards we issue.

So YES existing token holders will be able to redeem their NRG vouchers (crypto) for rewards (on Loyyal platform) that can be redeemed many places within the Loyyal network.

I appreciate all the excitement around the announcement. Some clarity is needed.

I have taken over as maintainer and developer of the chain for a few reasons.
          Community outreach
          Community feedback
          Upgraded tech (wallet/chain-client/explorer)
          More rapid onboarding on the Loyyal platform

Ultimately This transition is *how* we can realize the original vision of RBR

The Loyyal platform needed to be created to be able to realize the vision of RBR.
Now that Loyyal is building out Alpha RApps with select partners I offered to maintain and realize the transition of RBR into this platform.

By transitioning to me, the project can now get attention it deserves. We can utilize features as they are realized.

Don't be fooled by the few use-cases on the synRg.tech, I fully intend to grow this program into a multi million dollar, transparent & community directed business.

The whitepaper and creation of a community based governance model is coming soon. I've got some skinning and maintenance to handle first.

First and foremost I am in the process of transferring services to new locations.
Re-skinning / re-branding services & API's
Updating name and information on Bittrex and throughout the coin tracking sites.
Release of new chain-code to enable adoption by miners and other exchanges.
Release of desktop versions of the wallet.
Whitepaper to explain potential RApps, economic model, value assignment, governance model
Realization of redemption and issuance RApp
Begin accepting nRg Vouchers as entry into the RApp and Loyyal platform.

A full analysis of the chain, balances and activity will be performed. I'm also working on identifying cryptsy wallets.

Nothing is walled off. Any rewards programs can *by design* accept other rewards issued by other programs. The model is pretty simple and will be easy for other programs to say yes to.

The old chain will go away, a swap into Rewards programs created by me on the Loyyal platform. Any other programs on the platform will have the option to accept rewards from this new program. If a grocery store say decides to accept any rewards issued within the Loyyal platform, they will accept syn'Rg issued rewards as well.

I wanted to let everyone at this thread know First

Work continues on the Mining client, and I expect to have a site launch within a few days.

A few things, I love to play with my name, it makes for super fun conversation.

As for the Irc, I'm largely away from a computer between end of work hours and kids sleeping hours, I'm on my phone because I feel a strong urge to tether myself to this digital realm.

I hadn't dug much into who you were HMC , though I saw much engagement on here. But since you implied that I might have looked you up I couldn't resist.  Your github was the second result and where I stopped, I see you forked huntercoin, remembering the day I first found hunter. I remember thinking, finally a coin I can mine.
Because I too am a botter. I owe my programming career to writing bots.

My best application by far ever to come from these hands was the bot I wrote for world of Warcraft bots actually, I could quest, I could equipt, I could a* and I could add weight to successful paths, I could automate navigation from continent to continent. I seriously loved it.  My entire career I've been an automation guy at heart.

I spent 3 years doing webdriver/selenium web automation. I used to automate websites via a headless browser and make API's for people who needed some features that didn't yet offer offer that interop.

I don't play games, I never did. But boy do I love watching other people play them. When I started to build agents to play the game for me it was so surreal.

One of my most fun bots was a super simple (autoit script and gui) not that would turn spore into an acquarium. I literally sold it as a spore fish tank or habitat. It happened to sell like hotcakes.

Anyway as my huntercoin blockchain synched and I watched the game unwind I just knew that I could game this. In the end I think my time commodity prevented me from following that desire. Luckily I now use trick of being paid to do what I love. So while I don't have time to write bots all day I do get to play with crypto all day.

I'm taking tonight to crash out early and hopefully wake up at 4 to crank out some more chain.

Uhm I should probably get a wiki up to record suggestions for events that people would like to see be proven and rewarded but until then let's collect them here.

Obviously any kind of action on a site I create, or implement an API I create can be tracked.
Facebook and twitter, but what are some others?

Pardon my spelling I'm on my phone.
