Full disclosure, not a dev here, so this is from a simple user perspective....

It seems like most coins are not being adopted for payments (if that's the primary use) by the masses because it's simply not easy enough to use. What I imagine would help is having a wallet users could install and send/receive to/from identifiable contacts (instead of wallet addresses). I know there's been decentralized dns attempted by other groups, but I was just curious if anything like that had been considered here at OkCash. Just trying to think of ways to make it easier for people to mass adopt, and that one came to mind. When someone figures out how to make it so simple for everyone, it will be a game changer IMO.

Well in your wallet you can have contacts, once you entered their address just like a phone book with phone numbers, and then you can label the address with the person's name or business name/company.

Also not a lot of people would want their name associated to 1 or more addresses directly on the network, if that's what you meant by contacts and decentralized DNS.

Yes, the contact thing in the wallet is great. It would just be nice to have something similar and super easy to use on our phones.

I totally understand people not wanting to be identified. For example, if anyone could view my PayPal balance by looking up my email address, I wouldn't like it either. But that's not exactly what I meant. I was thinking more of an optional thing, very similar to a decentralized contact list. If you were a business and wanted to accept OKCash, you could have a fixed alias or something.

Just throwing out ideas, that's all. I want OKCash to continue to succeed, so I was trying to think of problems (and solutions, no matter how half baked they sound coming from a non-dev) that most/all payments related coins still suffer from, like mass adoption. Most people still in this space (dev and non-dev alike) are curious tinkerers and want/like to figure things out, but whoever can come up with a way to bring usage to the masses holds a pretty big golden ticket I would think.

Does anyone remember GetGEMZ? Well, it fell flat on its face but I think they got one thing right. Their platform was primarily a mobile message app, but with crypto wallet integration. I think the right approach is the opposite, primarily a very user friendly mobile wallet, where the user can select one of their addresses as their public 'phonebook' address. Secondarily, the app identifies any of their contacts that also have the mobile wallet along with their public addresses, and allows messaging. Mobile first is going to be the strategy for mass adoption, and the app that gets people transacting with their friends, without inputting hex addresses is on to a winner.

Can anyone tell if if there is any interesting Okcash protocol developments in the pipeline?

I dont actualy know that, but if you look at github https://github.com/okcashpro the devs are activ Smiley

Edit: if you look at github you see that they are working on an electrum client, hopefully for android too.
There's an Android Core wallet up coming. No release date yet as the devs are busy with other things right now, but it's being worked on in parallel

An Android or IOS wallet would be the game changer for Okcash!

Hi, can someone verify my calculations please:

Over the course of the 1 month ICO, SONM aims to raise: ETH 283,399
Price of ETH at time of writing is USD 352.14, so ICO cap will be approx. 283,399 x 352.14 = USD 99,796,124

The exchange rate throughout the ICO will be 1 ETH = 606 SONM, so the price of 1 SONM at today's prices = 352.14/606 = USD 0.58

Max. no. of SONM tokens = 222,000,000
Estimated market cap based on today's ETH price and ICO exchange rate = 222,000,000 x 0.58 = USD 128,760,000

This certainly looks like a scam. I challenge anyone to disprove the following statements, and I'll apologise profusely if anyone can prove me wrong.

The Beth Team is listed here: https://beth.jp/

SEIJI YOSHIZAKI - Is NOT actually a a professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Kyushu, as claimed. He may not even exist.

HAYATO TAKANO - The image above this name is not the businessman of the same name.

KOYAMA HIDEYUKI - Is not a computer scientist of note, and has no published papers.

HIDEMASA KUWAE - Is not a known blockchain developer with any online presence.

If you can't disprove the above statements, then why would you invest?

To all people saying that the will be huge inflation with this infinite block size.
Well lets wait for 10 years and see how it will work in future.
But right now, if it so important for you to calculate the coin price based on total max supply well
right now its 78 000 000 MUSIC ever existing. And there is 90 000 000 ETH ever existing right now.

Price for MUSIC is 0.00000825 BTC. Price for ETH is 0.049 BTC.
So using your logic the price for MUSIC right now should be at least 0.055 BTC.

And i dont know what are you waiting for and not running buying cheap MUSIC before it will be too late.

The point of my message is Total Coin Supply worth shit in terms on avaluating real coin price. It is what it is.


You're comparing an established platform with backing from leading multinational corporations and a market cap of approx 4.7B to a fledgling crypto that may or may not gain traction and establish a user base, and you're saying that MUSICOIN is cheap on the basis of that comparison. Why didn't you compare it to bitcoin or Google shares instead? It's all like for like comparisons right?

I'm not saying that MUSICOIN can't be successful in 10 years time, anything's possible in crypto. What I'm saying is that it's important that investors understand that the supply of this coin will grow massively and rapidly, no one disputes that so far. An increase in supply has a inflationary effect, i.e. it devalues the currency. Many cryptos have a deflationary halving built into the protocol and this has the effect of rewarding early investors by limiting the future supply of the coin. Unlike Musicoin, Ethereum will never exceed around 110M Ether. Musicoin does not have any mechanism to protect early investors from the inflationary effect of the protocol, on the contrary early investors will be disadvantaged because the coin will be devalued over time as new coins are perpetually created at a rate of around 1.8M per day.

my calculation come out to be about 1.8 million coins per day, based on 15 seconds/block and each block is 314 coins.

is this correct?

Yes, we're on track to be around 1.8 million coins up from yesterday. So in 6 months there will be around 182 days*1.8M = 327.6M more coins in existence than today, or over 400% increase in supply.

Scarcity is really important. Unfortunately without any controls in the protocol to regulate the supply I can't see this going anywhere as investments will be rapidly devalued as the supply grows.

but why so much supply? with so much supply in circulation the price will fall to much i think, i cant believe that 1 coin is more wort than 1 cent in the future

Yes, you're absolutely correct, this level of inflation will of course devalue the currency massively.

Do not spread confusing information about coin supply as it has almost no impact on price. You can issue a few coins and they can be worth no penny and good project can have billions in circulation and they can be worth 0.01 and more. 

You heard it here first folks, coin supply has almost no impact on price, so no reason to be concerned about >400% inflation over the next 6 months alone. Thanks for clearing that up!  Cheesy

Thanks, it's great to get a simple, straight answer.
Total Supply when I checked a minute ago was 76,578,634
At roughly 1c per coin at the moment that gives a current market cap of approx. $765,786

Re: [ANN] AMP - The Currency That Powers Your Attention On Synereo
by

on 25/09/2016, 10:49:16 UTC
There is 949,291,063 AMPs in existence today.

According to coinmarketcap there is 62,585,264 AMP in circulation, so when will the remaining 886,705,799 AMP hit the market?

I know Synereo have stated that it will be phased and based on growth of the network. So does that mean there is no fixed schedule? If the network doesn't grow, then they won't have any more funding rounds? That seems unlikely doesn't it? You'd imagine they will need to raise more funds if the network doesn't grow as they expect.

So can anyone confirm? If there any fixed distribution schedule, or is it a case of wait and see....
No speculation please, just trying to get to the bottom of what the founders have committed to, or if they have made no commitments at all concerning the distribution of the remaining AMPs.

I believe almost no AMPs will come on to the market before RChain is fully launched in 1+ years. The distribution of AMPs will be slow and will take many many years. I think there will be less than 200 M on the market in the next 5 years.

Its well planned, and many more AMPs will be burnt.

Hi, you state "I think" and "I believe" before 2 of the 3 points you made. Is this speculation or do you have a source for:
1. *almost* no AMPs will come onto the market before RChain is fully launched (1+ years)
2. Less than 200M on the market in the next 5 years.

If you're correct on point 2, although I doubt there is a source, then this should be a major concern for investors today; within the next 5 years there could be 4 times as many AMPs in existence as there is today. That would dramatically devalue the AMPs that are in circulation today.

Ping ya back in 1 year and we can check out the price of AMPs together.

Thanks for your constructive input.

Max amount of AMPs in the foreseeable future is 62.5M + 44M = 106.5M.

Source? If you can actually back that up with a legitimate source confirming that there are no plans to distribute the rest of the AMPs in the future, then it would actually address the concerns of many potential investors.

Let me save you some time. You can't back it up because the AMPs wouldn't have been created if there wasn't plans to distribute them in the future. I'm not psychic but I can foresee the effect that will have on the price.



The last I heard, the next crowdsale is 1.5 years after this one is finished.  The first crowdsale had ~400M AMPs for sale.  This crowdsale only has a MAX of 44M AMPs for sale.  I doubt any future crowdsale will have more than 44M AMPs for sale, imo most likely less, and they're all going to be spaced at least 1.5 years apart from one another.  Founders AMPs are locked up, and I seriously doubt they sell any significant portion any time soon.  The rest of the AMPs are allocated to bounties, content creators, and user signups.  None of these are going to result in a large dillution or any one person holding a large sum of AMPs.  The crowdsales are going to be the major source of new AMPs coming to market, and as seen from the announcement, not many are up for grabs.  The crowdsale AMPs are the funding source of Synereo, and they're not going to burn through them.  The plan for Synereo is a long term one.  Listen to the hangout sessions.  In the last hangout session, Greg is talking about his vision for Synereo ten years into the future.  Long term projects require long term funding.  Do the math.

Exactly, no source to confirm that the supply will not exceed 106.5M in the future because your claim was baseless. You have instead confirmed that the first inflationary event is imminent and that there are additional inflationary events planned, in the foreseeable future. Each of these events will negatively impact the price and investor sentiment. You have made my point for me, thank you.

Not to forget private sales directly via website.
Anyway best news for amp would be detroying most of that supply, 1.6 billion is retarded. I never saw a coin with 5% of supply on market and 95% in dev wallets. Hell imagine that after that crowdsale, we're at 100 millions on market, even if dev had 200 millions in wallet it would twice market but they have 1.5 billion haha. Please rewrite your supply plan. Yes you would have less units for funding but those units would have far more value, especially for such an anticipated project, we're talking about ethereum magnitude here. So all in all, u don't lose.

Just sharing my thoughts.

They can't change it now, but I completely agree that they should. If they announced that they are going to destroy all, of most of their 1.6 billion premine at this stage, it would be an admission that they didn't think the distribution and funding model through very well. While many existing and potential investors would welcome the corrective action, they would also wonder what else has not been thought out very well. Flip-flopping on one important issue plants seeds of doubt concerning many other issues. This is how the house of cards starts to fall for many cryptos, and this is why comments such as this one must be labelled FUD by the founders. They must continue to project an image of confidence, professionalism and positivity, to avoid the real and justified FUD that a supply change would cause.

To reiterate, I think Synereo has real potential, but I will wait until the market has shown some adjustment for the progressive inflation that is inherent in AMPs. The founders don't have to listen to us, but they can't ignore the market, and it will explain the flaw in their model gradually, over the next couple of years.

Why could they not change it now? Isn't having too much better than having too little? Seems like a logical fix is there. Change the amount of coins coming out and make a strict rule.

The conference they just had was about governance. If this is governance then they must listen to the will of the community. The community is saying loud go ahead and raise more investment, but why are there 1.6 Billion coins? It seems like a simple fix to me. Just send most coins to an address to discard them. Use the rest for funding, and to run the network.

Maybe i didn't make my point as clearly as i thought. Technically they can change it now, but they won't for the reasons I explained in the comment.

This is not a governance issue. Governance is concerned with how decisions are made, not the outcome of the decision. A chance in governance could result in a change of distribution/funding model, but there's no guarantee because you are simply changing the process through which the decision is reached.

If facts & reasoning don't change your mind, nothing will.

Whether or not you agree that market cap applies for crypto assets in the same way as it does for stocks,


Market cap is simply a measurement of investor sentiment, nothing more or less, and it applies equally to any investment product. Any claim that the concept of investor sentiment doesn't apply to crypto, or more specifically Synereo, is utter waffle.
