That may be true, but if you are asking for an economic investment pre-launch, those investors should be getting one hell of a reward if everything pans out like you say.  But with the current structure early investors will not see their BTC back for a while, if ever.

Also, i'm curious how you plan to making something that is illegal in most countries the new norm?

I think it's a good idea, but the IPO is ridiculous and should raise some greed flags.

Kickstarter recently hit $1 Billion raised on their platform after 5 years.  But let's use that as a number for a best case scenario, and say that Swarm will do $1 Billion in funding per year when launched.

Swarm charges 2% fees, but only 1% goes to the early investors so $10,000,000 of that $1 Billion will go to swarmcoin holders.

100,000,000 swarmcoins exist, so: The early investors make $0.1/swarmcoin, and at the current rate of 5250 Swarm/BTC, if you invest 1 BTC you will only recieve $525 if the entire platform does $1 Billion.

And who knows when/if that will happen...

I don't understand one thing about this.

This startup is intended to give "crowdfunders" equity in return for investing in their startup idea...

So shouldn't people who "crowdfund" your startup receive equity in your startup in return?  This is what you stand for, however, I don't see any reference to you actually practicing what you're preaching.

I apologize if a missed a point and this is what you are actually doing.

Hey everyone,

I'm selling a brand new in box XFX R9 280x.  I RMA'd my 7950 about a month ago and they sent me back a brand new 280x!  Decided to sell rather than keep, so if anyone is interested i'm asking $280 or the equivalent in BTC.  I can cover shipping costs.

Anyone mine anything with DigitalOcean?

How much money do you need in your account to use the 8 core droplets?

I used the one in the first page, it's weird though.. I have 3 droplets and used the same setup, it only synced on 1/3 of them.. others all have 0 connections.

Difficulty is 107, 0 balance so far lol -.-

Thank you!!! I'm mining whooooohooo, definitely going to send you some of my balance if i get anything :p

Question: How do you close the mining screen and get the command line back?

doesn't work :p

Rebrand to offend an even richer celebrity and get a 25x return??  If you think that will get this coin on an exchange you are retarded lol..

Hey everyone,

So I am fairly new to the bitcoin community and would like to give a shot at hosting a mining pool.  Mainly just for fun and to learn more about servers, mining, etc.  Are there any idiotproof guides out there?  What's a good place to start?

Happy Birthday Bro!

Could maybe get 2 7950's, cheap mobo, 650W-750W PSU, 4GB RAM, cheap cpu (sempron is good).  Should get you about 1200 KH/s.
