Hey thanks man! I appreciate your support and the compliment!
We all know another Ethereum is coming. People can feel it. I'm just happy we are now in a real position to make a real change for regular people. And its because of people like you supporting this project
Most of your wonderful questions can be answered by many of the content posted to our
YouTube channel. Or the general
FAQs page on the OP.1. what will motivate people to pledge for the kickstarter and what will be advertised as the campaigns aim?
2. what will be sollars unique features making them more suitable to compensate content creators than already established coins?Consider checking out the project overview video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-c8KHgH-tIAnd the newest video in terms of suitability in comparison to already established coins. There is a reason why already "established" coins are established only in programmers' heads and not in mainstream American's heads. It takes much more than Code for a currency to succeed. And in marketing circles they call that a Holistic approach:

Help us Build the Ultimate Replacement to Cable If we market that KickStarter ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ correctly to the American consumer. This project and our currency WILL BLOW UP. Consider checking out our KickStarter vids:
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 We go into depth about how we plan to pull this off.
How will it be possible to control the price of one sollar to be exactly one usd? As mentioned earlier there are already plenty of stability mechanisms that exist on the market currently including our own at Bitshares with the BitUSD mechanism. This is not to talk of the newest mechanism that will launch soon from the eMunie team by the other
mad genius programmer named Dan (They all seem to be named Dan... or Vitalik)
Our project long term will look to find a happy medium between Dan and Dan's mechanism. One is used as insurance against the system for mainstream consumers (BitUSD). The other is used for autonomous and stable creation against the Dollar (eMunie). One has been open sourced for a while. The other will be shortly after launch.
But remember that is all long term. Short term we need to focus on Hollywood and building real utility for mainstream consumers there. All the code to do that is already built, not just in my community Bitshares but also all the other wonderful currency communities building these sorts of open source technologies. Blockchain is really a commodity now. So what really matters (which no one is unfortunately talking about) is message, marketing and execution. That is what we are bringing that is different. We've done the hard work with technology now its time for a better focus on marketing, messaging and execution.
Consider checking out
Part 2 and
3 of the SoLCert video series:
What happened with the "held off forbes article" you mentioned in an earlier post?Still coming. Patience. All in due timing promise.
Do you have other devs on board? Yes I am part of the Bitshares community and two of our community firms will be contracted out to gear the MUSE blockchain technology towards our end goals. The firms are MUSE and Cryptonomex the original programmers of Bitshares. You can check out their pages on the Original Thread post. They will also be featured in our KickStarter video.
You said you were in contact with centralized exchanges, is there a centralized exchange interested in offering a btc/solcerts pair or are you talking about a btc/sollar pair in the far future? That is what we are currently figuring out now. The pair will be BTC/SOLCERT not Sollars. That will not be a pair for a while and will be marketed strictly towards mainstream consumers. We've divided the demographics we are appealing both assets too. Obviously this is strategic. Hope this info helps and thank you for your support.
