Hey Guys!
Want to share some of my thoughts and ideas after betatesting for you to consider, develop or say it is dumb )))
1. There should be the possibility to drop a fraction of geo, at least min 0,1. If the price of GeoCoin is $20-50 (ATH of GEOCoin was 35USD by the way) the usage of GeoCoin will be automatically reduced (you won’t be able to drop a few USD of GeoCoin). Another solution is to make a split of current GeoCoins, say 1:10-1:100
2. GeoCoins you drop are not visible when zoom out, it doesn’t sum into the blue/yellow/pink summary-circles.
3. The map looks very dark, it would be nice to have a possibility to switch between different color schemes, at least dark/light, and also to have a satellite photo map like in Google Maps (not sure if the MapBox has such features)
4. Navigation, like in GPS-navigation apps when it makes a route to the selected point, to a GeoCoin in our case
5. NorthUp mode to the selected coin (the selected coin is always on the North)
6. Highlighting of a circle round the coin when you select it. The circle that indicates the area where you need to get in to collect it. It could be very useful during my betatesting when I was not sure if I could get a coin in the pound close to the shore but not enough close
7. The possibility to set up the radius of such circle when you drop a coin. Different variations of how close you need to get to the coin to collect it could bring up more interesting user cases.
8. Passworded coins. When you try to collect such a coin, it asks you for a password to be collected.
9. Coin with the timer. Coin automatically returns to the original owner after the pre-specified time ends (and nobody took his chance to collect it).
10. The pattern of coins. You can collect the 2`nd coin only after you collected the 1’st one, the 3’d coin only after you collected the 2’nd coin etc. There can be interesting user cases, some kind of stagy quests with a specified path to pass and places to visit. This option can be released using Passworded coins (if each coin has the geo coordinates and the password of the next coin).
P.S. The project is very promising and I’m very glad to see it develops and enjoy participating in the betatesting! I think the only real risk the project can face – another project with the same gist and possible usage, but with many developers and PR/Marketing team onboard. Such clone project can outdo GeoCoin and thus make GeoCoin obsolete.
Thanks for the feedback In-Sider! I replied within the #geo channel on the Ubiq Discord!
