Yes,I will be posting about it here soon.
You're weird, man. You've been saying you'll be posting details about the project soon for over a week, and you haven't posted anything yet. Is your project that secret?
If you're afraid of your ideas being stolen, you don't have to post all the details, but rather a general idea about the project so members can help you. This is the development section, where ideas that could enrich your project and give you new insights are discussed.


JavaScript, node.js. It doesn't really matter what language you know anymore if you know how to use AI.
So why don't you use AI to program the tasks you want? You can also use it in marketing; you don't need anyone else in that case. Wink

Actually the AI was working great at the beginning. After it got to be about 2 to 3 thousand lines of codes, the AIs started getting confused; Now we are around 20K lines. They are still good for well defined tasks like writing a specific function.

I have been around bitcoin since 2011 (see my profile for when I joined here). I am currently working on a project that has not been announced yet. I am looking for people who have been around crypto for a long time and willing to help out with dev, marketing, etc; you will receive coins. Please DM me you LinkedIn profile and I will share more info. Thanks.

Is your project Bitcoin related ? You mentioned - “you will receive coins”

It's kind of related, but I'm not giving out bitcoins :-) The project has a different coin with a cap of 210M.

You have to give us a glimpse, so people here will know if the coin has potential in the market, and if they are willing to receive your coins. 2011 is now very different; the landscape has changed dramatically. In the olden days, you just created a coin, and everyone would come.
You know how easy it is to create a coin or token; you can generate a token for a small fee without coding knowledge, so better tell us what new it will contribute to the community.

Yes, I will put out more info in the future. But if you are curious, DM me.

The cryptocurrency space is vast, so you need to explain the concept of the project you're working on. There are memes, DeFi, and AI, and it’s unclear why there’s a qualification for how long an applicant should have been in crypto.
Shouldn’t you look for credentials and skill sets as the primary qualifications?
You should be specific about what you’re looking for and the type of coins they will receive. They should be tradeable coins or tokens, because you are paying for their skill, unless you want them to be part of the team, not just freelance workers.

If you are interested DM me. I can provide all this info.

Why not you talk about your project a bit here if people would be interested of joining you if it has good concept. Then talking about the marketing I wouldn't mind referring you to little Mouse to handle the marketing side provided you are real and have good intentions for the community.
You can track all the project managed by Little mouse here and if you don't mind you can slide to his DM discuss more with him maybe who knows he may put you through in some areas you are lacking knowledge about marketing and promotions.

Yes,I will be posting about it here soon.

New project with fair tokenomis looking for contributors
by

on 27/11/2024, 19:40:20 UTC
Hey everyone,

I am working with a few people on an open source, decentralized and scalable messaging app. We are looking for some more talented people who can contribute to the project. It would be great if you are based in western timezone, since that's where most of our team is. Please DM me if you are interested.

The project has fair tokenomics and no one gets the token without working for it; not even the team. Everyone gets the tokens at the same tokens/hour rate based on number of hours worked. The project will never sell the token to private investors or ICO and only rewards contributors with the token. The limited supply token can only be earned. You will be able to earn the token for running validators, helping to test and develop the app and for providing liquidity on AMMs.

You will definitely hear about this project and use it once it is launched. This is a great time for talented devs and others to get involved. Please DM me for more info.

I don't post here often, but I've been a member of this community since 2011.

Wow, I never expected so many replies. I really appreciate everyone providing such thoughtful comments and staying on topic. Great to see this forum is still so active; reminds me of the early bitcoin days. I think I'll be posting more often here. I'll try to address some of the replies in this post:

@Casdinyard
> The question is "How do you define a currency's success?"

Something is successful as a currency if those who are selling goods and services prefer to accept it and hold it until they can also use it as payment. If many potential customers are holding it, a merchant will accept it. But the merchant will only hold it if the price is stable. Otherwise the merchant would risk not being able to pay suppliers. So when merchants accept bitcoin they immediately convert it to fiat. So by this definition my original post is asking when and if ever we will reach a point where merchants will not only accept bitcoin, but hold it knowing they can use it to pay their expenses and suppliers.

@Silberman
> Most of that volatility is created by incoming money. Once the market is mature enough and the incoming money is a tiny fraction of the money already present then we could begin to see bitcoin flourishing as  a currency.

Very well said. However, bitcoin is still an experiment and we have yet to see how people will perceive it when the incoming money dries up. Will price stabilize or will it implode. I don't think it will ever implode to zero since it has a production cost. It may stabilize, but still go up or down in value based on the population size holding bitcoin. If there are twice as many people as before, each can have 1/2 as much bitcoin as before and the cost of a hair cut would have to be 1/2 as much. But this would be a very gradual change when the population size holding bitcoin is everyone in the world.

@Mauser
> The demand for bitcoins is growing every year and we are seeing a higher number of institutional investors from around the world to switch into the crypto world. With all these new players the pressure on FIAT currencies will rise too.

That's actually a bit scary. Bitcoin may trigger the collapse of fiat currencies (as everyone rushes to convert fiat to bitcoin), while it has not yet matured to the point of being stable. So we could have a period of time when people are not sure what to use as yardstick for value.

Will bitcoin ever succeed as a currency
by

on 01/01/2021, 02:40:52 UTC
When I first discovered bitcoin back in 2011, I was very excited about it and was telling everyone to check it out.
     http://arimaa.com/arimaa/forum/cgi/YaBB.cgi?board=other;action=display;num=1305495730

At the time I had been studying money for a couple of years and was writing a paper called "Sound Money Without Commodities", so I really appreciated what bitcoin was doing. I even mentioned bitcoin in an early version of the paper.
    http://arimaa.com/money/SoundMoneyWCOrig.pdf

Although bitcoin has many good properties, I was more interested in a currency which would be very stable and could be used to price other goods and services. A currency that could be used for purchases on a daily basis. It seemed that the limited amount of bitcoin would cause it to behave much more like a digital commodity rather than a stable currency. It would not be accepted by many merchants unless they could convert it quickly to a fiat currency.

So far that has proven to be true. Major merchants that accept bitcoin use a processor that can convert it for them. We know that bitcoin is currently being used mostly as a store of value and hedge against national currencies; similar to gold, but with much better properties. That's an awesome use case and that alone can lead to valuations of trillions of dollars for bitcoin.

But will bitcoin ever succeed at being used as a stable currency? I've been told many times that when bitcoin matures to the point that everyone knows about bitcoin and owns some the price will stabilize and it can serve as a currency that is stable enough to be used for daily transactions; assuming that scaling to handle millions of transactions per second is not an issue. I still think that the price of bitcoin will be volatile even at this stage, purely due to speculation and the limited quantity. I also think that the world will need another currency that is stable by design. I've written this paper to capture some of the key features of such a currency. It would be based on UBI and demurrage and would be fair to everyone regardless of when they discover it.
    http://arimaa.com/money/GETCoin.pdf

Do you think there is room for another currency to provide the use case for daily transactions; or will bitcoin eventually succeed at this? If you think bitcoin will succeed, how long do you think it will take?

BTW, if you are interested to help with GETCoin, please PM me.

Actually the word 'dollar' is derived from the Dutch word 'daalder' which is derived from the German word 'thaler'.

Good to see that Coinbase is now allowing prices to be shown with just 2 decimals. They are calling the new unit "bits". A bit confusing, but I like it better than micro-bitcoin. Maybe people will start calling this unit the bit dollar and sathoshis would be bit cents.

This is wrong for one main reason; if we add additional decimal points, your "Bitcoin Dollar" is now ambiguous. Secondly, numbers would be too big, who wants to buy a beer for 3,500 units? If the point of this is psychological, the units go against that.

And you spelled satoshis wrong.

And that unit is already a UBTC.

Thanks, fixed the typo.

Is there really a plan to add more decimals?  Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the design of bitcoin allows that.

In some countries paying 3,500 units for a beer is normal :-)

The Bitcoin Dollar
by

on 26/11/2013, 22:16:28 UTC
Each bitcoin has 8 digits after the decimal point.

1.00000000

This was a great idea when bitcoin started and its value relative to fiat currencies was very low. But now with the price of bitcoin reaching close to $1000 USD, it's a good time to introduce a new convention: the Bitcoin Dollar (BTC$), where there is just two digits after the decimal point.

Thus, 1 bitcoin = 1,000,000 Bitcoin Dollars
that is: 1 Bitcoin Dollar = 100 Satoshi

Why? Because people are not used to currencies having 8 digits of resolution. As bitcoin goes mainstream changing it to 2 digits makes it easier for people to deal with it and helps them understand that when they buy 1 bitcoin they are really buying 1 million bitcoin dollars. So rather than looking expensive compared to country backed dollars, it looks inexpensive.

I know we could also call it a micro bitcoin, but using that terminology just makes it sound like you are getting something really small. Also it doesn't give you any idea about how many digits are after the decimal. People already know that a dollar has two digits after the decimal.

Bitcoin clients and sites should allow users the option to view amounts in Bitcoin Dollars. Sites can gauge what percent of users enable this option and if a majority start using it then it could be made the default and viewing amounts in bitcoins being optional.

I haven't been getting much time to work on this. I'm looking for someone to help me finish this up. I can pay you in BTC. Send me a PM if you are interested.

You will need to know HTML5, JavaScript and Python. Also you should have a deep understanding of how transactions are created by the original bitcoin program. If you have worked on the original bitcoin client or another client such as Electrum that would be a big plus.
