Part 2: http://newmoney.sollars.com/new-money-funding-series-part-2-reserve/
....... And there is a reason why our launch on BitcoinTalk has been an early success. Despite being part of Bitshares.
......... We will never be a mini-me to the Fiat system masquerading as a blockchain. This does not mean people cant gain value. Its actually the opposite. It is what will bring everyone value. ITS WHAT THE PEOPLE DEMAND.
The general public will not switch to a system in mass that looks like their old FED system. What's the point?
Wow man i don´t know were to start here, first you are in the bitshares forum in fact i buy some of your stuff not by your great personality, cause i dont even know you, but for the great support of some members of this forum, and you came here to say that your proyect is an early success despite being part of Bitshares lol no further comments on that.
Next thing is how you to express about Bitcoin and blockchain ( Fiat system masquerading), that tells me that you don´t understand what Bitcoin is all about, in fact is a shame, the vast mayority of us are here because indeed understand how the real world money system functions and the possible ways to change it.
The point is the people either change in mass just because you got nice sentiments about something or good intentions, the fact is that everyone go out every day and worked his fingers to the bone just to make a living, if something is not profiting or not convenient for them ya could be a fantastic idea nobody gives a shit, that's elementary economics, instead of claiming raising funds you may probably ask for donations, here is not ICO possible cause you are offering nothing for your investors meanwhile you are receiving my hard earned money.
First llildur I want to say thank you for believing in this project with whatever you have donated. I greatly appreciate it
I think you misunderstand my statement in speaking on Bitshares. It is not meant as a slight to you or any of the Bitshares community members. You have no idea how much I appreciate you all and it is why I proudly where my badge of Bitshares and powered by Bitshares.
This is DESPITE individuals telling me not too. I say you stick with those who stuck with you. Look at the comment on our Explainer video for empirical reference.
The statement on Bitshares is actually meant as a truth we all know in our hearts. We all know BitcoinTalk folks dont really like us. They dont. As a matter of fact I was encouraged by many as we came closer to launch
TO NOT launch a thread there that it was just a waste of time. And since I was involved with Bitshares that they would flame and FUD the project.
Because of how we approach our launch though (focusing on the things that no one else focuses on) we have seen the opposite reaction and its something I have argued for a long time. As a matter of fact I can remember back in 2014 Stan working tirelessly with paragraphs of clear and viable arguments against the trolls at BitcoinTalk who just would not give up. It was funny because I would read and really be intrigued by Stan's thoughts despite the futile efforts of those members to discredit it. It was laughable.
But he probably didn't know it. I wish I could have told him they really did not matter as their technology spoke for itself. Instead I actually came here... Anyways that is neither here nor there. I can tell you I do understand Bitcoin and its EXACTLY why I am part of Bitshares in the first place. And I don't have nice sentiments. Anyone who knows what we are doing knows the business mode. It is similar to PeerTracks/MUSE and has been expressed for ages on this thread and in the videos we have created.
We have a roadmap that starts in Hollywood and on KickStarter. We build from there. Latest video from channel. I know what I am doing and am an expert when it comes to my field and the demographic we are reaching:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-y9Lxa4CSwAgain thank you sir for your participation. I in no way meant disrespect to you and your hard earned cash, nor anyone else who genuinely believes this can work on some level. Nothing in life is guaranteed but we will work our hardest to bring this project to a mainstream audience.
May be we need a clear roadmap
Ebit thank you for your participation so far. I don't know that I can get any clearer than I've been so far in this thread. If you want a roadmap of exactly what is going to happen? For that only time will tell. I've done my best to lay out a pre-emptive roadmap of what is important to focus on as we are trying to reach a totally different audience.
This is not a typical crypto-currency project. What we are aiming to do in the short-term and what we even want to aim for in the long term has been laid out and expressed. But looking at Bitshares and Ethereum and as individuals who have been here since 2013 we should know roadmaps never stay the same.
Think of how much has changed since 2013 because of what we have learned. Look at the roadmap of Bitcoin. Seems it has gone off the road
Look at Bitshares and Ethereum roadmap. Just think of how much has changed despite our early goals. They have changed significantly. I say that to say trust that I am an expert in my field. I have thought this out long and hard and will get Bitshares technology adopted. Keep watching we are just getting started
Congratulations on launching your project Solomon and with your collaborations! Very very exciting! I don't have the funds to invest at this point but wish you the very best of luck.
Hey Ben! Thanks man! We've come a very long way.
And still much more to go. But at least this time its with friends and comrades. Don't worry about it. Your words of encouragement are good enough! Its tough for one to put their vision out there, but honestly I'm very grateful to the Bitshares community coming behind this project in the way that it has.
Our overall image to the rest of the crypto-community is changing. A lot of us can feel it. People are genuinely interested in what we are doing and being civil with this project. They are asking more and more about Bitshares. Makes me happy because it is proving my original thesis out. That sometimes its not about the tech but the entrepreneur or people behind it.
With that let's stay positive and show the wider crypto-community that THIS is how you reach a mainstream audience. Not with Blockchain but with $ense #PoweredByBitshares #OnlyAtBitshares #OriginalRockStarDelegate
Yeah, Bitshares, Bitcoin, Ethereum it's all technology untill we have products that people really care. That's why entrepreneurs are standing up to launch products and business people care about (Sollywood TV, Echo Apps, PeerTracks, M.A.S and more to come...). These projects will take bitshares in another level. Mainstream don't even care if it's powered by Bitshares, Bitcoin or Ethereum Blockchains.
You are absolutely right. The platform is the base but it's the entrepreneurs that are going drive the adoption.
