« on: November 10, 2015, 09:13:29 am »I received the pm, and I claimed it. But there is/was some bug I think. I traied to claim it a second time yesterday and it told me that that tip was already claimed (by me, but it was no showing in my account).Fixed a bug that may have caused a user to receive a tip that wasn't there's (occurred while multiple tips were sent in the same post).
I claimed last tip from fuzzy, but never got in my account
The only tips it shows you have claimed are 100 newbie (from fav) and 100 brownies (from fuzzy).
Fav also later tipped you 100 NEWBIE in another post (this was never claimed), and
Fuzzy tipped you 150 BTS (this was never claimeD).
If you would like the link for these two unclaimed tips, I can PM them to you.
Now if a click again on the link that the bot sent me for the tip from fuzzy, it say "hey eagleeye" instead of "hey bhuz"...
Edit: still it says already claimed, but it is not showing I'm my balance
@kuro112 @Freebieservers maybe you should check

« on: November 09, 2015, 08:22:02 pm »Considering we cannot share the fee with the merchant as an incentive because that is economically equivalent to simply lowering the fee.Why you say that is equivalent to simply lowering the fee?
The fee for the "user to merchant" transaction is paid by the user, so from the merchant point of view, a cut from that fee is an income. (or I am missing something)
If the merchant uses that cut to lower the price of the product he is selling, then yes, is equivalent to lower that fee.
But the cut that the merchant would earn, could be used in a different way... just as a plus neat earn, or as a merchant fund for ads his business and attract new consumers --> more earning (ex: give huge discounts every month using the collected monthly fees)
So this gets to the real question, what is the value of a Life Time Membership to end users? The primary value must be Discounts offered by merchants. Merchants would offer every customer who is a LTM a discount on their products proportional to the savings the merchant is getting on fees.
Can we "force" the merchants to make discounts to LTM ?
Because the point was that we can not force the merchant to use a merchant account type, so we probably cannot neither force them to give discounts.
The point to add that fee income to merchant was just to make them willing to use a merchant account (since we cannot force them), because it will give them some advantage. (more earning or free fund for ads/discount, or anything else)

« on: November 09, 2015, 07:00:12 pm »If there was a merchant account it would be identified by the relative number of times it received funds compared to sending funds. It would be trivial to work around by creating new accounts frequently.
That is the problem with decentralized solutions, it becomes very hard to discriminate.
What about driving merchant to create and use merchant's accout type instead of normal one?
For "driving" I mean make the merchant account better than the normal one (from a merchant point of view ofc)
We should try to think and identify some particular features that almost all merchant would like to have, something that they need or that can be profitable for them also, and attach these features to the merchant account type.
I am sure we could find something like that...
As you already said, we could discriminate the new account type by
1. the number of allowed received transaction per hours/days or what fit best
or 2. relative number of received compared to sent
Edit: making a cap limit to the normal account, and unlimited to merchant
How prevent the problem of merchant using several normal account instead?
-thanks to the pros features they would get with the merchant type of account
For example the "high fee" for "user to merchant" transactions could be divided into 20%network - 60% referrer - 20% merchant (values only for example, idk what could be the best division)
The point is to redirect a small part of that fee to the merchant itself, making the merchant account type profitable.
The merchant at this point could even use that little earn to bring new costumers to him.
-He could deduct that fee from the price of the product he's selling
-or even collect the fees's monthly income to give huge discount on some products and attract new costumers
This could be a feature that merchant could be willing to have/use...we just need some others like this that make the merchant account very attractive for merchant!
Would love some thinking and discussion about all of this

« on: November 09, 2015, 04:51:11 pm »There are two businesses here:
1. Payments
2. Exchange
...
What about differentiate the Payments business in
A: user to user (lower fee nexto to 0, if not 0 at all)
B: user to merchant (higher fee)
There will be need of a new account type for merchant, with different setting on fees.
And maybe also some pros attached to this new type of account...
Would be this feasible ?!
