very nice. Now the marketing can really start !!!!!!

Indeed. You could do awesome things if you added Keyhotee to the mix. Using basic public-private key encryption you could create secure channels of communications between the server and user. Resistant to man in the middle attacks as you stated.To add to that I think it clear that the direct to consumer route for a DNS system will not work. Namecoin tried this and failed. Bitcoin users might be interested to install the software, but the other 99% percent of the consumer base won't care enough to install some plugins for some obscure domain name system. You can beat the network effect of the system the entire internet uses.
This would be my strategy if I was running Bitshares DNS:
1) Create Bitshares DNS to spec
2) Create a traditional company
3) Have that company create APIs that allow easy support with legacy DNS systems.
4) Make tons of money selling the APIs to backbone. You reduce the workload of backbone providers by 90%. You can save the hundreds of millions of dollars while getting Bitshares DNS out there. Blockchain based DNS system solved:
- Domain Squatting
- DNS Poisoning
- Long DNS Propagation Times
- No need for specialized hardware anymore. Just needs to be able to run the Bitshares Client.
- Eliminates downtime and censorship
5) Suddenly now everyone supports the system with no effort on the part of the users
You missed the secure protection against man in the middle attacks. (compromised SSL certs)
Then a 'crowd sourcing' campaign can be started to raise money from the shareholders who are willing to solve this case. Now at this point everyone can help solve this case depending on your specific skills and submit their tips to the system. All tips are being collected and are visibile to anyone. The shareholders can vote on which tip(s) have led
I agree me I can't make it this weekend at all
Sounds fine with me...but it all depends on what the other crew members are up for. I think we should try to stick to a few dates/times and those who can show up show up. It is rarely going to be possible to get all of us together...and the good thing about being able to record meetings is that we can send them to each other to listen to offline.
I came up with the perfect speaker, can you Guess Who?
Lives close (Salt Lake City, Utah) to Las Vegas, owns Bitcoins himself, CEO of a well-known company that accepts Bitcoin, and stated why his company at the moment doesn't hold onto Bitcoins for more than a day because "There aren't any derivative instruments out there yet to hedge that risk, but we anticipate they will be created in one way or another."
I would love to speak at the conference! My goal is to speak about the future of decentralised gaming applications and present my DAC to the community. I am still finalising draft proposals to submit to the shark tank.That's great. Really looking forward to your DAC proposal. Good luck !!
I will be in touch during the following weeks.
Quote2) All DAC development teams that can convince the community of their good ideas can raise all the money they require.Please explain : How they will raise the money ? Put an address and raise more money from the community ? If the idea is that good why they should go to all that trouble of raising money in this small community instead going on a much more bigger community in bitcointalk ? I mean both community know the crypto world why a DAC developer not go directly there ? In top of that they should give 20 % AGS/PTS
Clains post try to answer some of the questions : https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=3481.0 but besides the shark tank competition most of the point could be done by bitcointalk community too.
We need to have a very clear answer to those questions. Barwizi was a developer for some bounty of Invictus and a investor in AGS(I think) so he understood very well the vision of 3I but even himself did't see why honor 10/10 to AGS/PTS holder, when he created Noirshares.
Shark Tank competition may help but I think this is not the optimal solution for everybody. Should be a better way to attract developers. Why not brainstorm the forum ? we may find something.QuoteFor example, I have people come to me all the time asking me to give them large shares of the AGS funds to develop their DAC. They may be able to convince me they are trustworthy, but how can I know?
This is easy you don't pay them in advance. You pay them when they proof their work all along the development of the DAC so no need to trust them. They get money when they show you the advancement of their work.
I wrote some ideas here : https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=3491.0 . I guess it is in line with "The free market is Ultimate Decentralization" too.
I don't think this will remain a small community.
Once several BitShares-branded DACs have succeeded, the consensus will become increasingly strong.
The value of joining will grow.
Until then we will hand-negotiate those best-of-breed deals and work with those that do share the vision.
That will be plenty rewarding to keep things growing until we reach the necessary network effect critical mass:
