General Discussion / Re: This one is worth paying for a transcript!

"I'm going to be doing talks like this and interviews like this - video blogs - to describe the philosophy and the potential for what this system can be. And that's going to be marketed and directed toward those user communities, everyone from Alex Jones to Lew Rockwell, to all the youtube videos about conspiracy theories and anti-banking."

I'm starting to put together lists of writers, websites, forums, blogs, podcasts and meetups on this exact topic on Nullstreet.

They will start working on this in a few weeks.

Thank you for the update.

Has anyone heard an update on their progress? If we can't offer additional development resources, maybe we can donate a little funding.

Peercoin/NuBits is already making progress.

I would love a guide as well. Preferably a video tutorial.

When the usd dollar collapses, the price of gold will inverse.
Obviously holding bitgold is better than holding physical gold for security from theft reasons.

A video tutorial would be excellent!

Totally agree.

A short video explanation for newbies would be helpful. Maybe a series on to include each bitasset.
Also, perhaps we should have a series of ? that when you hover the mouse over pops up a 1 sentence explanation of what you're about to click?

People are lazy, so the easier the better.

Thanks

As soon as something like that was developed, Nullstreet could be aggressive promoting within gold bug / precious metals type areas once the client is a bit more polished.

General Discussion / Re: Benefits of Becoming a BitShares Gateway
« on: December 06, 2014, 10:34:54 pm »
Sounds like they are interested in a proposal and if we get this right they will add in a gateway as soon as possible.

Probably not as soon as possible, I think they will want to know that demand is there first.

However it would be insanely big if we could just get official word from them that when there is enough demand they will become a gateway. That alone would be frontpage news on /r/bitcoin and do more to sell bitassets than anything else.

It's not just this gateway. This document is essential to opening up all major gateway opportunities.

There is also the possibility that he gets to know your operation behind the scene--the strengths and weaknesses and uses it to one-up bitshares....and gets paid for it.  Like toast said, there is a range of potential outcomes.

Toast already knows my secret motive: convincing BitShares to move aggressively on .p2p!

Back in September (long before I ever spoke with Toast 1:1) I wrote a forum post outlining why BitShares and other cryptos are not our enemies but our allies (cannot post links, check the Namecoin blog).  Namecoin developers are motivated solely by a desire to make the internet usable, censorship resistant, and secure.   I'm betting that BitShares will want a part of this revolution.

Bitcoin has already made the devastating 2011 banking blockade of Wikileaks an event that could not be repeated today.  When Tor integrates .bit directly, the Wikileaks Tor hidden service will be accessible at Wikileaks.bit to everyone running Firefox; removing DNS from the censors' toolkit!  Blockchain based identity will help secure communications for whistle-blowers like Snowden.  And proof-of-bandwidth will make Tor scalable.

Even if one of my proposals goes through I get to work on Namecoin full-time, I want to collaborate with BitShares.  I'm looking forward to "[getting] to know your operation behind the scene--the strengths and weaknesses" because complementary differences make our combined efforts more sustainable.   I spoke with Vitalik this week, and I can assure you that there are common areas of interest for all of the major cryptos.

That being said, even Linus had to work for Transmeta for six years before switching to kernel development full time. I think I have a lot to offer BitShares and I'm looking foward to working with the team.

Great to have you with us.

this would be really beneficial as lamassu is one of the main atms here in the usa. might also be good to reach out to zenbox and  bitxatm.

Exactly!  If we show progress with 1 ATM, the others shouldn't be a big deal.  It's now a question of finding a developer willing to step up.

General Discussion / Lamassu ATM

"Thanks for reaching out.

We'd be happy to have an integration for Bitshares on our system. We do not currently have the resources to devote to this project, but our software is all open source and should be easily modified to your protocol.

Here's the link to our repository: https://github.com/lamassu

Would be happy to point you in the right direction and look forward to having a module for Bitshares. "

Anyone want to grab this project? Maybe a development delegate for ATMs and similar services?

I may be attending.

I'm walking around in the environment right now.

"The Crypto Money Expo on December 5-6 at 11:00 AM EST works on roughly the same principle as live streaming an event except they use a virtual world to set it up. It’s been compared to a MMORPG and probably uses much of the same technology, but I think Second Life would be a better analogy because it doesn’t remind me much of World of Warcraft."

Robrigo will be manning the virtual booth, do we have others that are planning to attend? Great chance to network for BitShares.
