Screenshots look great and it seems like a very reasonable cost.
Feel free to answer these questions in the other thread if you would prefer to keep content there.
If your fundraising falls short perhaps you could create a worker proposal for a portion of the funding, with BTS receiving a share of the profits relative to the % it funds. Given the project may add overall value to BTS for a low cost it may be supported from that perspective too.
What is the route a merchant would take to convert BTS related tokens to fiat in their bank account.
(Cost, steps involved.)
You state 50% of profits not revenue, what are the expected monthly running costs of the business for year one?
The hard part is convincing merchants to adopt a payment option like BTS which currently has few users..
Will you be involved in/Do you have any marketing plan to promote this to Odoo businesses?
Possible ideas:
- Perhaps a brochure aimed at merchants
- Referral programme integration. Maybe a link a merchant can give a customer so that when the customer downloads the app, they become the primary referrer.
Thank you
@Empirical1.2 The fundraising won't fall short. No Worker needed right now.
As for profits and such,
@Chris4210X would have to cover that as he does all the financial stuff with ccedk.
As for converting BTS for their bank account. This is where CCEDK will come in with their new OPEN.EUR, OPEN.USD etc tokens and their bridge. Once Openledger is running that new bridge then I will get with Ronny again and see how much of it we can implement with the mobile wallets, what is entailed etc and then I can figure out what it will cost. I would not expect more than a few thousand bucks to add it tho. We have the bulk of the wallets done already just need to pretty it up now and have the top Devs beat the hell out of it with us, see if we can break it etc before I upload it to apple app store, google play, etc.
The 50% question, that is one for
@Chris4210X Convincing merchants as I said in the mumble will take time. We have to bullet the points for them. Business owners have no time for bullshit so if we have a 5min "pitch" and just show them how fast and cheap and secure our system is and the many ways in which is can help them to expand and draw in new customers then we have a real winner here and can finally look at mass adoption of Smartcoins.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZw950LCifY I am not a marketer IMO, I Make. Chris and members of this community (especially OPENPOS Hodlers) are the best marketers of these wallets and pos abilities as they understand it better than anyone and can just show business owners and others via Meetup (
http://bitshares.meetup.com) and online why BitShares is the best and why they can start using our wallets and POS immediately.
Multi-lingual flyers and business cards are done, I did those months ago:
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,15840.0.html Referral button is already in the app as you will see, it is on the contacts screen, top right corner. This way if you get a friend to sign up?r=your_account then you get the referral. Please spread the word about the OPENPOS token, we are about 20% of the way there now. Will be in mumble again next friday as well!
