General Discussion / Re: Curiosumé + Bitshares = Intrinsic Coin
« on: September 09, 2015, 01:49:59 am »Hey all ... newbie here.
We need help on some ideas that we are working on at The Ingenesist Project. I've been on the Beyond Bitcoin Hangout for the last several months learning about this community. I believe that here is great potential here. Is this the right place to ask for interaction with this members of this group? Let me know and hopefully we can start a thread. Thank you very much.
Welcome!
I'll just come right out and say Curiosume puzzles me. Cross-posting from here: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,18214.msg232723.html#msg232723

All money is backed by the productivity of those who choose to use it; that's just how network effect works. The more people there are who consider the currency valuable and who are willing and able to provide a variety of goods and services in exchange for it, the greater the utility of that currency.
I could be misunderstanding, but my initial impression was that Curiosume is an attempt to create a currency based on these principles without recognizing that this is already a big part of how every other currency works.
Just being honest here with no intention of being mean-spirited or overly critical. I really don't understand how Curiosume is different from any other currency except that it's catering to engineers first as high value members of the global economy. Hopefully you can tell me what I'm missing.
