I thought I would post this here as well
Hi Ian
there was a recent episode on let's talk bitcoin discussing the death of DAO, I mentioned your AT projects to Adam B. Levine in the comment section, but being code-ignorant, I couldn't take the discussion any further. I provided him with links to your website and to the burstcoin forum but he seems to be under the impression that the project is not active anymore.
This was his reply to one of my comments:
"I looked at the CIYAM website and forums, they seem basically inactive since last year. How do I actually learn about this project without being a developer myself? I'm always looking for advantageous technologies to use with Tokenly and we're definitely interested in smart contracts, just skeptical about complexity and scaling"
https://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/lets-talk-bitcoin-297-the-death-of-thedao-part-oneCould you get in touch with them to perhaps explain the technical side of things of your AT?
Thank you
I am asking all the technical guys in here to help spread the word about AT/smart contracts. I have some sort of understanding of their potential utility but my technical know how is non-existent. I understand that you guys are busy but this kind of opportunities don't come very often.
Many forums/news sites are wrongly claiming that smart contracts are doomed/rekt/dead because of the DAO's hack, and the vast majority of them are not aware of ciyams work so let's do our part as a community to help spread the word.
This is what our new PR campaign will be about.
What we are planning, is to issue a Smart Contract, and then challenge the world to hack it, we're hoping to have over 120 million BURST sitting in the AT awaiting said hack for a week.
We are 150% confident in our system withstanding anything anyone can throw at it.
We will be pushing a small update to BURST beforehand, so we must wait for that to happen, then give the people a chance to update to the new wallet. Once this has happened, we will be issuing this challenge as publicly as possible, on all possible Bitcoin news sites, etc.
a headline such of... "Cryptocurrency BURST issues a CHALLENGE TO HACKERS" in which we will put up this Smart Contract, and leave it running for a week with the funds there awaiting their hack, when it is proven impossible, all funds will be returned to the investors (automatically with the CFAT), and we will have then proven ATs viable.
This will happen as soon as possible, there's a minor bugfix (Unrelated entirely to the nature of AT security) that we will push first, then this will happen.
We have already tested for months the viability of the Crowdfund Smart Contract or (CFAT) and we're extremely confident that the contract can ONLY do what it is told. This will solidify the Smart Contracts in the eyes of the general public, as something not only viable, but completely awesome. This is our goal.
Be on the lookout for a new wallet version release in the very near future. Thanks!
