We should wait for a new video introducing main features of WildSpark.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP42ijvMSb0 I made a video about the new features Cheesy

OMG... Dor and his team wrote wonderful articles upon the attention economy and media flows on the Internet. AMPs would tokenize the cost of attention. But what we see is some old multilevel strategy to deceive people who think they can make money by AMPlifying and sharing links, hoping that other people will follow those steps. As soon as they realize it doesn't work and they lose money in average, they will only try to make content and AMPlify their own content for more AMPs, but probably there will not be many people AMPlifying that content, only themselves. I may be wrong, but I really don't see a point here...

??

Dude. AMPs can be used by curators with the purpose of earning money, but they are also a way to reward content creators directly. That means no longer will content creators have to rely on bullshit ad revenues, contracts with spotify, etc just to make a fucking living.

All you need is a popular channel on youtube, medium, or whatever and you can earn money from what used to be "thumbs up" on a video. No bullshit from corporate entities. Steemit has already shown that this tipping model is a viable way to incentivize content creators.

I would certainly tip youtube creators for creating content I like, even if I didn't expect a ROI on my 50 cent tip. Would you not?

I would prefer to invest in my children's education rather than regularly send money to youtubers, but it actually doesn't matter what I would or wouldn't do. This is the wrong question. What really matters is what most people would do. And they wouldn't tip.

Talking about Steemit... Do you see STEEM Dollars or even liquid STEEM flowing to good content authors? No! No tips! You only see upvotes. In Steemit, an upvote doesn't mean you are emptying your pockets on that decision. It is damn easy to upvote for free. I am not selling AMP now because I already sold at around 20k sats, but I think it is a good opportunity to sell once again, before the hype vanishes and the true reality arises.

Your assumption is wrong. Most people are paying spotify 9$/month for content. Everyone knows spotify fucks artists over... so I am betting that people would happily give that same 9$/month (or less!) directly to their favorite creators/curators if the switch is painless (and it will be with just a few more tweaks). And you can certainly still upvote... but now we have an a way to pay content creators easily, and directly. No middle man, no shitty waste of time ads. It's pretty great. I can't understand why you feel the need to FUD this, lmao. You have yet to put forward a valid criticism.

Also, you should probably invest more than 50 cents into your kids educations, man. That really isn't much.

I am not FUDing (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt). I am analyzing it. Every project is intrinsically uncertain. There will always be doubt, and that's where money comes from: a good analysis out of the doubt and uncertainty. Everyone has reasons to believe in something. I believe the design is not sustainable, because people will soon find out they make money (let's say...) around 20% of the time and lose about 80% of the time. So why would you care to spend time curating content if you are losing in the long term? I don't get the driver of value here. I could jump back in and buy twice the number of AMPs I previously had, since the price is currently half, but I don't see any comment showing the potential value here.

"I'm convinced because I'm convinced"

Okay congratulations. Go be convinced somewhere else and quit spreading FUD

Hello guys, i recently tried to withdraw some coins from omni web wallet as a test but i get the message that my bitcoin address doesn't have that much funds to cover transaction costs. I have 9 cents of bitcoin and 70k amp on the same address and the web wallet thinks of selecting bitcoin as option by default even when synereo is selected. I have attached screenshot. Please help

http://i.imgur.com/L8DkzdR.jpg

Ran into this same problem a while ago. Since AMP is an OMNI token, sending AMP from OMNI wallet requires enough BTC to pay the TX fee.

So just send some BTC to that address (3$ worth) and Bam you can move your AMP out of OMNI.

And, in case anyone is wondering, transactions in the beta don't require you to send BTC when you AMP something lol.

Get out as soon as possible. This project is a total disaster!

I still dont understand how ICNX is listing this stupid coin!

5 years of development right ?

Why do you think it is a disaster? Have you used the beta? It's actually pretty cool.  And it's been in development for like 2 years is, not 5.

Well nice shitcoin, drop like potatoes and now can not eat sell wall on 20btc it's sad.

Everything rebounce about 20-30% a Synero all the time dump dump dump ...  Cry Shocked

Maybe there is no beta and all this is a promise game?

Fuck it, I'm posting a screencap. The beta exists. The devs wanted a small, closed group to try it first so they could iron out any and all (there's very few) bugs.

Its not only AMP that is plunging..its almost the entire market.

This is when you buy idiots not panic sell unless you are in profit.



No no no. You're supposed to follow the crowd and sell at a loss so I can take your AMP

I've been watching this kebab guy spread FUD, and I've wondered why he's doing it... He's an LBC shill.
If you don't believe me, look at his recent posts. The first 19 recent are spreading FUD in this synereo thread but the last one is just a post supporting LBC in the library thread.

I know his posts aren't really relevant, but in case anyone was curious that's all that's happening.

Your'e wrong mr sherlock , its right i had LBC in the past but now i only hold BTC.

lol. I wouldn't hold LBC either, it's a shit coin compared to AMP.

But anyway, sorry you got cold feet and sold off after the AMP crowd sale crash. Interesting to me that you didn't have the guts to hang onto your LBC either. Spreading FUD won't help you build fortitude though, kebab, my friend.

guys this coin (although seems to be a good project still) has been manipulated to hell from the start lol, not necessarily 'devs' fault and all since whales have soooo many coins to play with.  the fucking coin count on this is way to high and many more should be burned (oh well, so much for that).  you have whales galore playing this coin like a fiddle and they basically have been pnd'ing the news releases on this thing.  look even that crowdsale where ppl bought (now since recouped) the thing dumped insannnnnnnnnnneee post "sale".  not sure if devs knew or were involved but who the fuck knows......since so many whales play this coin with bots, i doubt devs involved, but jesus this thing pnd enough to make ppl cry and baghold for months on end lol.

Its always manipulation.

The team has failed period, the hold around 11 million USD in bitcoin and al they did so far is a crappy browser extension no one has seen or tested, its a total joke.

I use it all the time. I can post a pic if you want. Stop spreading lies about the extension being fake.
