Yeah this is excellent, Am not all that sure what that means yet, but al check it all out. And am sure i'll help in anyway i can.
I know am showing my ignorance now but what is this coinpayments you speak of?
Brob12321 Did i not read somewhere it was 100000 bitb, Although I am starting to think that i might be wrong and this is going to hurt. Just a wee bit lol
ahah its actually 5,100,000 Bitbean to get into the BeanCore. You need to prove you own at least 5,000,000 by signing a message from your address this amount is not a fee though, and then you need to make a donation to the beancore of at least 100,000 bitbean. http://www.bitbean.org/forum/new-core-development-group-announced-bitbean-core thats the page on their website that states the requirements. At the moment that is $200 lol. I do own some bitbeans but nowhere near enough 5,000,000. I could never ask you to send that much money to me unless of course you're a multimillionaire tech startup CEO or something along those lines lol
Real world Tech Startups will often require a minimum of a $25,000 investment (An example: https://angel.co/funds). With millions of dollars in seed money, those Startups can hire real professional staff full-time! Real world Tech Startups are properly capitalized and have the resources to execute their strategy on-time.
By the way, your estimate of $200 is low ($300 would be a bit more accurate in terms of USD in the current market). The 100,000 one-time BitBean donation represents less than $5. To put that in perspective, average maintenance costs for infrastructure of Bean Core is now averaging about $45/month. Bean Core is comprised of 8 members currently, that's about $40 in donations from membership joins...that doesn't even cover the costs for 1 month over the last year! But thank-you for reminding me what a ridiculously..crazy..low barrier to entry we have -- of less than $300 for what will become a long-term top-ten World-Wide Digital Currency!
If a person is so broke they can't afford to
invest a few hundred dollars today, to get a return of thousands in year or so, they should find better employment of their time and resources. Put a few hundred dollars in a bank and see how much you will have after 1 year!
Bean Core is building a solid operation of research and development, to enable delivery of a leading-edge digital currency with integrated enterprise-grade commerce solutions for merchants and consumers to use BitBeans in real-world transactions.Here's a constructive idea of how anyone that has a Twitter account can help BitBean at 0 cost (almost, requires about 30 seconds of your time!):
Like & re-tweet the Coin Payments announcement: https://twitter.com/BitBeanCoin It's 4am in the morning now. I'm so energized by your post... I'm going to be kind to myself now and get a few hours of sleep, so I can get up and finish implementing our new Development & Collaboration infrastructure -- for ALM based development (v2.x BitBean Core). We're deploying a hosted Jenkins/Hudson CI (Continuous Integration) build system for v2.X and Gitian for the v1.X trunk.
