In the latest episode of Let's Talk Bitcoin (E. 72 "Powerful Perspectives"), Fred Wilson, a respected investor and managing partner of Union Squares Ventures, spoke on how decentralized networks are inevitably going to replace the hierarchical structure in place presently. 

He said that the first major step toward this power shift (or essentially, power alleviation) would be the creation of decentralized networks for verifying identity, taking away free access to valuable information from entities like Google, Facebook, and even the NSA.

He mentioned that he did not know of an existing "bitcoin-like entity" that would facilitate this type of network.  He is a major investor - if he knew of Keyhotee's existence, perhaps he would be interested in investing in this revolutionary technology!

I will ask Adam to introduce us.

Out of curiosity, will either you or Stan be speaking at the Texas Bitcoin Conference in March?

General Discussion / Re: Goliath spotted David / JPMorgan Chase Building Bitcoin-Killer

Yeah, prior art would come into play heavily against JP Morgan's patent.  Also, the Supreme Court could be reconsidering its stance on allowing software patents...

It really sucks we're all subject to the whimsical, sociopathic opinions of a small group of people, but to stop allowing software patents would be a step (albeit a small one) in the right direction.

BitShares PTS / Public Exposure
« on: December 03, 2013, 11:40:23 pm »
In order for Protoshares, DACs, Bitshares, etc. to take off, there needs to be more public exposure.  I think a fine place to start would be to get Daniel or Stan on The Keiser Report.  Max is a huge advocate of bitcoin, and has guest after guest on calling for the decentralization of everything. 

Invictus' ideas are revolutionary only if you guys are the first ones there.  I rarely use it, but I have a Twitter account, and Max always looks for tweets for new ideas re: guests, questions, etc.  I tweeted that he should interview you guys, and anyone else that has an account really should too. 

Is this a good idea?

Thanks for clearing that up for me!  I think I was a bit unclear about what exactly is Protoshares purpose, but now I understand.  Really excited about the future!

Sorry Bytemaster and Stan, just read your replies.  Makes a lot more sense now - thanks a ton!

So if Invictus is invested in a new DAC, they wouldn't necessarily have an incentive to "sabotage" them by selling shares at a super low price?  I guess so long as it is a new DAC unrelated to the services that Invictus provides...

Say the new DAC is a competing service that Invictus already offers... would there even be incentive for someone to compete with Invictus since Invictus could just change its protocol to the upgraded competing service's protocol and sell off the shares of a competitor at a hyper-undervalued price?

But you will only own the PTS mined so far, right?

So it's taking a snapshot at release - or will future pts get credited too?

Just a snapshot of PTS ownership distribution at first release, when the genesis block of a new DAC is laid down.  After that, your PTS are still good for ownership in other developing DACs that honor the ProtoShares Social Contract.

I'm finding it hard to understand why competing DACs would honor Protoshares.  What incentives are there?  Wouldn't Invictus and Invictus' DACs also be making money off competitors?

I've also seen an explanation that referred to the competing DACs wanting an already present customer foundation via Protoshare holders. Does that mean competitors would be inheriting your customer base away from you guys?

BitShares PTS / Re: [ANN] ptsweb.beeeeer.org - Protoshares mining sub-pool (up to 501% faster)
« on: November 16, 2013, 04:06:37 pm »
Really?  I started mining last night, and have had no payouts.  I checked the root access and it looks fine.  I wonder if I did something wrong...

I'm not seeing payouts into my wallet, and I can't access the user stats page.  I'm not worried, just want to make sure all will work out when everything is fixed.
