I've integrated audio and video into the wallet - at least with alpha version.

Part of the project roadmap involves post/message encryption. I'm thinking Open Whisper Systems Signal is the best choice.

Anyone with any views on this?

Thanks.

You're absolutey right! But, I think long term, the main driver will be price. No middlemen to take a cut and no advertising costs.

the problem with this is the customers that will utilise your platform. they need to grasp first how to apply your services in their everyday lives. yes you are right, we are in the era of having a decentralised ecosystem everywhere but we are still in the stage of mass adoption. that's one thing that you need to address first. how to entice your customers for your niche

Excuse the redirection as Bitcointalk won't allow a direct link.

Thanks for the reply. Yep, a screencast detailing the features is a must.

Money sending/receiving is standard; same as Bitcoin.
Article updating/removing is not possible because of blockchain immutability - it cannot be changed. Likewise with forums.
I need translations in all popular languages. Yandex is far from perfect.

The point of the screenshots is to demonstrate the enormous potential of embedding content in the blockchain with a simple user-interface.

Imagine, Fiverr without the middleman, ebay without the fees, censorship-free publishing, censorship-free forums, etc, etc.

What about embedding audio and video in the blockchain too? I'm experimenting with it, and it's not difficult to do.

kev18489, no offence, but it's very hard to understand what your application can do just by looking at screenshots. What is possible to see in the screenshots is a QT-application with some embedded HTML-pages.

I understand that you are focused on writing code now, but maybe you will have time for a screencast YouTube video (maybe even with some technial explanations)? But don't rush, you still need to be focused on development.

What I think would be good to see in a video:
  • money sending/receiving
  • article creation, reading, and, if it's possible, updating and removing
  • forum creation/removing, forum threads and posts CRUD
  • several words on how much graphical design freedom a user will have creating his own article/forum

Thanks! Also, if you need a Ukrainian translation of your app, maybe I can help then. As I understand, you don't need a Russian translation, because you're using Yandex API key in your app, am I right?

Take a look at this screen-shot:

https://ibb.co/iCFFh7

It's a copy of an ad from fiverr.com: https://www.fiverr.com/email_templet/design-or-code-a-best-quality-responsive-html-email-template?context=adv.cat_10.subcat_140&context_type=rating&pckg_id=1&pos=1&ref_ctx_id=a002715b-d943-44f5-b272-d760776e6bdb&source=gallery-listing&funnel=7066e4f3-4431-42be-a473-5f94436edf34 (copyright respected)

As I mentioned yesterday, advertisements can be embedded in the blockchain very easily. As there is no censorship, I will look into options to eliminate ads for illegal goods/services.

It's ultimately a Litecoin derivative written in standard c++ with Qt.

Once it's officially launched, all code will be on Git.

Hello, kev18489! The project's idea sounds wonderful!

Can you tell me which programming language the project is being written in?

Also, when approximately are you going to release the code on GitHub?

Take a look a this fiverr.com ad: https://www.fiverr.com/mborgelt/be-your-seo-expert?context=adv.cat_2.subcat_65&context_type=rating&is_pro=true&pckg_id=1&pos=1&ref_ctx_id=546144b5-c606-4928-82ff-508fea759893&seller_online=true&funnel=7efde319-3b2f-4d08-8c01-a6917beac0be

Fiverr.com take a very big cut of all transactions!

But, with NextWeb Coin, there is no middleman and freelancers keep all their earnings.

Not too difficult to create a similar ad on NextWeb Coin.

With some experimentation, I think you can actually integrate blogs as well. But it requires a lot of coding... something for the long-term roadmap.

Looks something different in terms of project. What about Blogs?

Can some embed the images below into this thread, as I don't have the privileges yet.

@bitChipper:

Thanks for your reply.

I've added an up/down voting system to the wallet. Once an article receives feedback below zero, by default, it won't be visible to users. So, users, including myself, will down-vote offensive/illegal content so it's not visible. But quality articles get up-voted.

The wallet also supports an anonymous marketplace. For example: fiverr.com allows members to offer their digital services  - SEO, logo/graphics/web design, video production, etc - to other members. However, fiverr.com take a significant portion of each transaction. With NextWeb Coin is there is no middle-man to take a cut.

But, there is one issue: illegal content.

Recently, child pornography links were found in the BTC blockchain, which caused some backlash.

How does a new censorship-free publishing platform deal with illegal content? I’m interested in your opinions.

Thanks.

LBC Lbry credits deals with a similar issue but they have a naming system involved with their chain...that would be coin to look into for more information.

Otherwise i'm not sure there is really much you could do?

As mentioned, the wallet supports a marketplace as well as publishing. Think of fiverr.com without the middleman, likewise with ebay!!!

I'll upload a screen-shot later.

The wallet also supports language translation.

https://ibb.co/n431n7  (all major languages covered)

So, articles in any language can be translated to another language instantly.

@bitChipper: no, it hasn't been launched yet. I've been testing it for a while.

Github code and tx timestamps will demonstrate no premine. I will reset the blockchain prior to launch.
