WOOF COIN

Since the beginning of the pandemic, pet surrendering rates have increased dramatically around the world. Waitlists for surrendering household pets have increased to a remarkable eight months as animal shelters and welfare organisations have seen an increase of 34% for animals needing help.

Typically, animal shelters are under resourced and under financed; relying heavily on donations and the volunteer efforts to assist animals.

This is where Woof Coin steps in. As avid lovers of dogs, we wanted to make a difference. Using the power of Proof of Work mining, we’ve created a coin where miners are contributing to the donation of money to animal welfare shelters. These shelters initially include the ASPCA who already have a cryptocurrency donation mechanism but with intention to expand to the RSPCA and other organizations suggested by the community. 

Our aim is to put animals first and we intend on developing ongoing relationships with pet shelters to help adoption.

Hi everyone, Just letting you that we making good progress on the beta.

Hi Populous World. Thank you for all your efforts!!

I hold several thousand ppt tokens and I just read your business plan. With the price of the ppt tokens under pressure lately and falling towards new lows, it would be very helpful for myself and all the members of the ppt community to have a reason to hold our current ppt and better yet, a reason to buy more. If you would be kind enough to explain in greater detail these few questions, which I feel were not well addressed in the business plan...thanks in advance:

1. How can the PPT token be used on the platform to generate a passive income for the PPT owner?

2. How are the PPT tokens protected from loss once they are loaded into the platform?

3. Will the platform allow the purchase of invoices with fiat currency? If so, then why should we hold PPT?

Maybe you are still figuring some of these things out? If so please give us your best current understanding.

Cheers!!

1. The PPT operates, via smart contract, with collateral & leveraging functions interacting with the platform to finance invoices, the financier receives returns in Poken(ERC-20 token pegged to Fiat , initially GPB £), at a variable rate, determinable by individual invoice and seller factors, furthermore a majority of jurisdictions charge CGT(capital gains tax) when one converts an increased in value asset(PPT/Poken) to Fiat currency, prudentially asset to asset does not incur such levies.

2. PPT held in escrow on the platform are protected securely by smart contract(security audited to high standard), in addition three methods are enacted to recover any default either from the invoice seller or respective customer, those three forms of security are;
  • credit insurance
  • director guarantee
  • debenture

3. Yes, Fiat in tandem to PPT will be used to finance invoices, please refer to answer 1 as to why one should hold PPT over Fiat.

4. We have targeted Populous, currently, at the invoice financing industry, fundamentally to revolutionise the unregulated trading environment set amongst the restrictive preclusion of the invoice finance sector. Further industries that bode well for P2P lending will be vastly more amiable to an organisation with solid foundations built upon invoice financing.

When the platform becomes open source, this is when larger exchanges will become available to PPT.

So this is the reason why Bittrex isn't listing PPT? That it is not open source?

Yes, the projects intention is open source, but the GitHub has not been made public yet, so technically it is not open source until the source is opened up to the public, which will happen during transition from beta to live.

Looks like you have no idea about the microstructure of markets, you should do you home work on Money Velocity Effects on Price discovery:

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1509.08503.pdf
https://export.arxiv.org/pdf/1709.01268
https://export.arxiv.org/pdf/1702.04443

Getting listed in bigger exchanges has absolutely nothing to do with Money Velocity effect on price discovery.
Otherwise you can cite academic researches that prove getting listed in bigger exchanges will do just that.
Please don't use random occurrences as some scientific fact.

"Getting listed in bigger exchanges will spike the price" is as FALSE as "stock split will make the price go higher".
They come true NOT because they are driven by validity, but by self-fulfilling prophecy.
And here you are trying to say self-fulfilling prophecy is valid by quoting money velocity, which is total BS.

By the way, have you ever really gone thru the 3 links you provided?
Because they have nothing to do with money velocity, and they have nothing to do with getting listed in bigger exchanges.

Look, here's the real deal.
Bittrex cannot list PPT (and many other ICO tokens) because they don't want to list tokens that behave like securities that may imply investments (even though they have no problem listing currencies).
So you can either sell all your PPT or shut up about Bittrex listing (because such listing will never come).
You are barking at the wrong tree here.

You are correct inasmuch regarding price spikes from listing PPT on larger exchanges, but the reason why is not due to factors you raised, PPT is not a security, no dividends are paid, read the business plan: http://populous.co/media/Business_Plan_Populous_final.pdf

Quote
5.2.1 Buyback mechanism
The buyback mechanism serves a few purposes. Firstly, the buyback mechanism acts as an indicator that
the platform has generated enough working capital to repurchase the tokens and utilize a portion of the
cash and cash equivalent. Upon the buyback, there will be fewer tokens available in circulation, which
enables easier transactions with the PPT in the platform as there will be lesser congestion in the
network.

Illustration of the buyback mechanism
The buyback mechanism is illustrated with the following simplified example:
Imagine there is 10,000 PPT in circulation where you own 100, each valued at 1$, giving market cap of
$10,000. Assume that every 100 PPT lets you generate $10 per year for investing in invoices and every
year from Y2 onwards, 1000 PPT is bought back and destroyed.

When the platform becomes open source, this is when larger exchanges will become available to PPT.

Hi everyone, Just letting you that we making good progress on the beta.

Phew, can I take over for the Populous outreach? LOL I'm an architect but can switch fields b/c PPT clearly needs better communication with the public and a more commanding use of the English language.  You can pay me 1k PPT a week and I can start right now.



You have to be quicker than that:

PPT is added to Hitbtc already. Next Bittrex in line in my opinion seeing the work. It seems that Bittrex will be ready to add new tokens in very near future and till then PPT platform will be in beta already. I mean to say PPT will see huge appreciation in that case.
I need the link.can you provide me the link of hitbtc where i can trade my PPT coin? actually is not so big exchange i think.we need more big exchange platform. we need huge volume for this great coi[Suspicious link removed]ice already decreased a lot. Sad Sad hope it will increase soon.

I hope the populous team read here. I would like to be a part of a community that cheers them on to complete their work and also to help them achieve what they want in whatever ways we can. People have been sharing useful suggestions and honest opinion on how to make the PP succeed so I hope it is given some thought.

Personally I am a holder of PPT and plan to keep holding and try buying invoices on their platform. It is my excitement and wanting to share this opportunity with my friends and family that started the extra curiousity. Of course, if I had more information and confidence, I would likely try to buy more PPT.

Where are the channels and forums, apart from this one, that has a community of Populous Platform Token hodlers?
I want to join.

I used to root for Populous but since I  sold all my PPT I realize how 'meh' this project is so far. SALT has barely been on the market for any time and has already gathered more attention than this. The 1 billion dollar company shit is BS aswell, sure they may have sealed that deal but I don't see any proof of that and also why include that they have a revenue of 1 billion? As if that 1 billion will be traded in populous, at best you might see one invoice on the market from this company for a year aha

Team = meh
Website = meh
Marketing = meh
Communication = meh meh meh

It's all average. There's so many better projects out there at the minute to invest in and make money. Wheres the new website? Wheres the listing on other exchanges??


I have been trying my best to suss out this company for the last couple of weeks. Let me know if you agree or if you have conflicting views.

1. [RE: Team = meh] It looks like Steve Nico Williams has a bit of bat rep. There are a couple of sites that say he is not an honest business man and may be a scammer. I don't believe this but hey.. I don't know how to disprove this either. I think the team on the website is not true and that they must have hired a company with NDA to do development and coding for the platform. Would really like confirmation. The excuse or reason for the non-transparency is because of fear that competition will try to rip off their concept and business. It would be nice to know if they have contracted another company for dev. I want to know the number of staff working on the various arms of the Populous Platform business, and milestone updates, even if details are hidden since it isn't an open source project.

2. [RE: Website = meh] It is in the middle of an update but still could use a revamp in terms of visual design and investment into UI/UX is always worth it, as seen by iPhone's success.

3. [RE: Marketing = meh] They apparently contracted with a marketing company. I would like to know the scope of this engagement and what the marketing company's job will be and what we could expect from them.

4. [RE: Communication = meh] Could be better. I would like for a communication manager to be added to the team to constantly engage with and grow a community.

I still think that this company will have a working product quite soon and there is potential of something really good and profitable. It is similar to Bitconnect, but they have a transparent revenue stream unlike the mysterious trading bot for Bitconnect. However, I have so many "hopes" for Populous. I hope the website and UI will improve. I hope they become transparent with staff members. I hope their marketing team is worth the money. I hope they keep adding invoice sellers. I hope communication improves to grow a community. I hope it isn't a scam. I hope the large exchanges list PPT. I am personally feeling about 75% confident in PPT.


Yeah I agree with most of what you are saying.The lack of transparency reasoning, nah I don't agree with that - two other companies are now on the market and are doing the same thing. Nico even said in an interview that he was not going to patent this idea so there isn't much to keep secret about what they're doing and 2) they don't seem to care if others do the  same. Before they took down the website you could see the team - nothing amazing to be honest. They have one developer who also works in another company doing some programming. I would like for a new startup company who don't even having a product yet to have a dedicated development team and not just one guy who works on Populous while he's not working his normal 9-5 job - that is amateur. Nico himself has a degree in Philosophy so that doesn't add very much credibility. Once the website is up once again you will see for yourself that the team is like a normal bunch of guys and some advisers who don't reference populous on their linkedin pages at all.

The website is also amateurish, look at all the good projects out nowadays and they have state of the art websites, the populous website and alpha were something I could have literally developed myself after 3 months into my computer science degree - they could have easily hired a professional to do this website from the get go like everybody else.

Don't care about the marketing company, we will have to see where that goes and as for the communication - it needs to be improved so much. The last we heard from populous was "1 billion dollar company" and hitBTC and boom gone for weeks.

Populous idea is good, but not sure I would invest any money again in hopes it will be successful.

The hate may also start to poor in with the usual crap i.e You're a newbie account, nothing you say is true, FUD - you want to push the price down to buy no (no thanks), you're mad because you didn't get in in the ICO etc etc but whatever haha.

Once the beta is released and I see active invoices and I see quality of this project improve thus improving investor confidence I would buy back into populous but right now uncertainty is a no go. And when investors see "FUD" on here they like to shout and scream but why do they act like that? Say for instance  the "FUD" deters potential buyers, why would investors in PPT who are so certain about this companies success care about criticism in the long run? Wouldn't that just allow them to buy more PPT and potentially be wealthier in the future  Wink Grin

The website was adequate for the sold out pre ico, I am confused you said "Populous idea is good, but not sure I would invest any money again in hopes it will be successful." then you said "Once the beta is released and I see active invoices and I see quality of this project improve thus improving investor confidence I would buy back into populous" which is it you do or don't want PPT?

People get upset at false information, because it has an effect upon their holdings, what is hard to understand about that?

Well, at least more exchange volume is guaranteed.
We usually purchase ours on MERCATOX, we have too many things stuck on ED as that it is not working properly for some reasons and we cannot take all our tokens out from there. I have never had a problem wiht Mercatox. I think COINEXPAY is not bad either and we need something even more decent like Cryptopia. I hope the POPULOUS Team can put some funds together so we go to some good big exchanges.

We clearly have funds, we have made applications and are awaiting replies, funds are not the issue at present, waiting for replies is.

I would like to purchase more PPT on a weekly basis while the price is still suppressed. I see the long term future for POPULOUS and as I would eventually like to retire from my job as I am now 60 years of age, POPULOUS might be able to supplement my future income in a passive manner. I doubt I will be purchasing a Lamborgini, but by purchasing POPULOUS tokens now I might be able to buy some quality time with my Family.  Grin

Sir that is a commendable action, this is what Populous is about and will achieve, a system that everyone benefits from.

There is no doubt that the concept of Populous business model is very viable and promising.
But the value materialization still depends on how much effort and dedication the team is putting in to realize it.

And the only way you can see that effort; is by the release of the Populous Platform to the public  Smiley

LOL is this a joke? If the team is successful in their vision PPT tokens will have more use than bitcoin. Don't be so dumb, bitcoin is just a store of value, PPT will have a purpose

LOL is this a joke? Newbie shilling for an altcoin has no credibility here. You can't compare Bitcoin to a unsuccessful Ether based token. You can't even compare Ethereum with Bitcoin. Populous token have no purpose. It's just used for pump and dump. If you want to shill from newbie accounts at least make some effort and come with some ideas.

Lol redhat, yh I said redchat, wants in he is a FUDDER, he works by trying to get price low with FUD then buys low, the crybaby is upset that he didn't get in at Presale price, lol what a crybaby! Get out of here you clown
