I should quit my job and become full time admin on this forum...

and do some day trading in the rare occasions I have nothing to delete...
Lack of arbitrage is the problem, isn't it. And this 'should' solves it.

I see that few people joined using my link. Thank you!

Please let me know if you have any questions.

I see that you have 7 posts on the topic of LTB coin, and 99 posts on the topic of MMC coin.

My question is: Do you have any interest in bitshares?

I was heavily involved in MMC DAC as you've noticed, and also in BitShares PTS. I did not post as much about PTS because I was doing mining instead of marketing.

My main problem with Bitshares is that I can't mine it. That's why I'm not involved as much as I was with MMC or PTS. This problem is what this whole topic is about. But I'm really interested in BitShares and I will be heavily involved once BitUSD and other derivatives are ready.

There is a an article on Let's Talk Bitcoin about how eBay, Microsoft and others build Proof of Participation platforms similar to LTBcoin http://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/ebay-and-microsoft-eye-user-created-value-platforms-similar-to-ltb

That's cool.  Didn't think about the advertising side.  Does that mean the podcast will get bombarded with spam ads, and is any ad accepted?  Because if you start denying people ad space they want to pay for, I could see the price slowly tanking.

Adam has some simple rules what qualifies for an ad and what doesn't. The only noticable rule that I remember is that gambling ads are not allowed, but most normal things are ok.

What can you use LTBcoin for? I mean, if you buy it, what can you do with it? Is it the same as most other clone coins, you buy and pray it goes up. Or does it have a real use besides giving it away to people with clever comments (like reddit gold).

I can explain that. LTBcoin is the only way to buy advertising on #1 bitcoin podcast in the world Let's Talk Bitcoin. The more people join the platform the higher the value of advertising is, so theoretically the higher the value of LTBcoin.

But I guess most people here just need Bitshares, there is nothing wrong in selling LTBcoins and getting Bitshares.

It's a community access token of sorts.
This is really something for Adam to explain.

You are right about one thing, I must acknowledge, you and I have the same right to have wrong opinions.
My bad! Apologies!

Adam B Levin is the genious behind LTBcoin and Proof of Participation. You should really talk to him. This is his big experiment. Also, you can just try to sign up and see how well what Adam created works. I'm really impressed, but I myself didn't create it.

Luckybit, I feel like you're thinking in the right direction. But I don't think I can contribute much, I'm just a miner. I see profit and I run to it. At the moment I see a lot of profit in LTBcoin and Proof of Participation that's why I'm doing it. That's why I would like to share with the other people so they can get some of the profits too. But I'm not the guy who could create something as genious as LTBcoin.

I know Adam but he's focused on LTB and I'm focused on Bitshares at least while I'm on the Bitshares forum. He's a shareholder and posts here often so we all know him. I also own some LTB coin.

Keep your eyes on http://www.minebitshares.com/ if you're interested in profit from mining Bitshares.

@belltown, you are one of my heroes! I have dedicated a whole thread for people just like you! Go check it out:

@luckybit - You had a good run of 10 good, well thought post. Why did you have to do this?

I'm not doing anything I haven't always done. Just because I think we should attract miners to Bitshares it doesn't mean I'm in favor of Proof of Work the security model. The purpose of mining for Bitshares is that is the only way to market to people like the poster above who chase profits through mining. It's an equal exchange because our community benefits as the hashing power they would ordinarily waste is used to buy Bitshares and increase our market cap.

http://www.minebitshares.com/


I like how minebitshares.com says: Mine the unminable.

Basically this and my guide are trying to solve the same problem: how to mine the unminable. The difference is that LTBcoin mining is much more profitable at the moment. I'm mining both PoW and LTBcoin right now and profits I'm getting are not even close. LTBcoin is like 10-100x better.

Contact me in private, we can discuss it further. I've been trying to solve these problems for the past 6 months if not more.

The gist of it is that we want maximum community participation, contribution, but we also need people to get paid so that they become stakeholders in the DACs they work for. I've refined this idea even further so that certain kinds of DACs reward attention itself.

I think LTB is implementing something like that with magic words or something similar. The idea is that attention is a scarce resource and a DAC can pay participants for attention in the same way that ads use this model to power the world wide web.

Step one is to make Bitshares mineable. That will do a lot to attract different demographics to Bitshares. Then later on we can try more advanced stuff (first you have to prove that DACs actually exist in reality before you can go further).

Bitshares X is the flagship DAC. It's success is critical to the success of everything that comes after it. The Bitshares toolkit will allow us to create our own DACs with delegates (I like to call them operators), and if we have a way to vote then I could see how you could do proof of participation, contribution, or whatever else.

The reasoning behind it is that some people don't have a computer to mine with such as people who access the community through a library computer. These individuals might have a lot of time and anyone can write stories for example. People who cannot write stories can take surveys relevant to the community and get paid for that. This would allow the DAC to do market research on it's users.
