Is trading going to happen 3rd quarter as promised? or are we possibly looking at 4th q or further out?

We expect some exchanges to support Factoids as soon as a wallet is available, this should be when we release our beta in the next few weeks.
Various exchanges have expressed interest.

Will there be a simple .exe file for newbies when Factom Beta is released, or we need to install a bunch of softwares and there is only command line in wallet as Frontier of Ethereum, it's so terrible for non-programmers, and most investors of this project are not programmers.
I saw so many complaints of this thing when Frontier release in Ethereum, please take is seriously.

Not at the beginning, the beta will be a command line tool and will require installations of requirements.
There will be a GUI and a easier to use binaries in future releases.

You've got to be fucking kidding me...all of those funds and you can't release a simple GUI with the first release?

This will dump exactly like Ether did. If anyone wants to buy mine off me, let me know. This is nonsense.

We haven't received any funds yet, they are held in a multisig until we complete our milestones.
You will be able to get your Factoids out of Koinify, there won't be a GUI but there will be step by step instructions on how to create a Factoid address and import your Factoids from Koinify.
Work is in progress, and there will be a easy to use wallet as part of the second milestone.

If there is no issue according to your step-by-step instruction, that's good, but actually there will be various of issues which are very tricky for non-programmers just as Ethereum, they have lots of instructions too but there are still many guys who can't make their wallet working or mining. It's simple to you guys since you are very familiar with what you do but it's very very hard for newbies.

Second that, it would be appreciated to have a GUI Wallet as soon as possible, so we can get our Factoms off of Koinify and secure them. It might help Factom as a project, too, you would not want people to start dumping their coins on any exchange that offers a simple tool, like what's happening now for Ether/Kraken. If you offer a good Wallet, people will probably feel more secure and hold their Factoms longer.

I do agree that a good gui wallet is wallet a good idea. Im sure you guys could take 1 day to make it. Grin

But I keep believe in Factom!

What was the crowdsale price and how many Factoms would be in future

Token sale price varied from 2000 factoids to 1500 per BTC at different sale stages.
We can't eastimate exactly how many factoids there will be in the future but once the network goes live a percentage of initial factoids (about 8 million)
will be generated each year by the network to reward federated servers to help support the platform.

Interesting white paper.

I may have missed it, but how are you sending transactions to Bitcoin from Factom in order to record a hash of an activity?

Is Factom actually using Bitcoins as entry credits or something similar?

Federated servers will be hashing entries on the Bitcoin blockchain. To do that they will have to hold some BTC for the Tx fees.
Factoids get converted to entry credits which allow to hash entries through Factom but ultimately there is still need for BTC to anchor the entries to the blockchain.

This is third quarter, when will this show hit the road?

Shouldn't be much longer, we are releasing weekly updates on progress.
The Beta will be released once Release Candidate 2 is out and has been thoroughly tested.

Beta goes after RC? WAT? Shocked

Anyway, can't wait for a stable release.
