Hey team,

So I am thinking the next concept I will introduce via video to the bitcoin community is DAC's. Profitable Crypto's vs non-profitable crypto's.   Again this will not be a ram it down your throat btsx is awesome video.

It will be a bitcoin and blockchain are awesome because it allows DAC's.

What is a headline that would make a devout bitcoiner click on to learn about this topic?

Thanks for suggestions in advance.

While, I think you are far better than me in this kind of stuff.

here is what I will use:

"BTC is it profitable by itself?"
"BTC is actually a company... Should we make it profitable?"

"Making money with Bitcoin. Few novel ideas."
"Sitting DACs, aka BTC making money for you"

The second suggestion.

If NuShares placed their Shares as collateral against NuBits then you would have BitShares assuming NuShares were a freely traded crypto and the interest rate voted on by NuShare holders was the interest rate PAID by the shorts to the longs.   

What happens if the collateral loses value? This approach introduces a serious default risk. As it is, the viability of NuBits does not depend on maintaining the value of NuShares.

I appreciate you two duking it out publicly, but schedule a closed door session, both parties will benefit

From what I can tell they use voting to set interest rates...

They are also thinking of being closed source because they are worried we might copy them (due to my comments on this thread).

They can't be closed source and be successful

NuBits was never intended to be close sourced forever. It will become open source in time.

With current scheme they cannot be successful period. Make themselves rich? maybe.

Do you think you could post in detail why it will not work? It seems NBT sales are doing very well at the moment with very little exposure/coverage. It's been out for 6 hours and you're already 100% sure it's going to fail?

It is long explanation - in short they issue money based on a decision of the Nushare holders, and  enforce the peg on centralized exchanges. Support for the peg is also provided by giving interest. The decision if and how much interest is to be paid is done by vote of the NuShares holders. NuShares are distributed to 'trusted parties', read insider clique.

It is the same as you and me saying - here are some dollars (NuBits), we promise to find you people to always buy your NuBits at $1 a piece. If we happen to sell more NuBits than necessary, we will vote and give you some interest...
I collect outrageous ideas (and IPOs ideas) in crypto space. One day I will publish them as an entertaining reading - NuBit/Nushares will make one of the better chapters....

Anyone want to try with a real response? This type of response is incredibly unattractive to new people like myself. BTSX is highly unprofessional if this is an example of how their community thinks.

Liondani just highlighted an area of economic and protocol concern, others mentioned the centralization, which can be used to manipulate the system

Others might point to the faceless development team of nubits, yet others will doubt the system further due to the faceless investors and their undocumented portions of ownership, which has to lower confidence and trust- ability of the system, the root issue again being centralization

edit: words/grammar

Btsx does not have these issues
