When you say we need to provide our NXT account IDs, is that the numerical ID or the "NXT-xxxx" ID?

It's the numeric ID.

LOL, are you really going to launch your coin once QORA source code gets released? GOOD LUCK! Another SCAM!
NOT SCAM!!! This is free!!!  Grin Translated to Portuguese.

Dont like distribuition:
Quote
50% - distributed equally to ~3000 webapp registration applicants
5% - goes to the registration webapp dev
5% - goes to the dev who clones Qora, and creates the Kora wallet applications
2% - Kora founder
8% - goes to node bot bounties
4% - website & marketing
1% - Qora dev
25% - POWER BOUNTIES

Because the founder has to stay with 2% free? An idea of ​​cloning is not worth anything.
Will become worse than the original Qora!

My recomendation is
5% goes to the registration webapp dev, goes to the dev who clones Qora and creates the Kora wallet applications, Kora founder, kora dev Distribuited equally between all.
25% - POWER BOUNTIES
5% - website & marketing
8% - goes to node bot bounties
56% - distributed equally to ~3000 webapp registration applicants

It will take a few Devs to develop it.
If it will be more evenly distributed, because they put high reward? You guys do not trust in the project itself?
PLZ let transparent to not be another SCAM.

Few hours left for launch , I am excited , but please do update about number of coins per stake and total coins.

The registration process can start & finish, and we can confirm coin supply details at a later date.

At this stage I favour a coin supply with a 1 at the front

1,000,000,000

or maybe

10,000,000,000



If it's 1 billion then:

If we achieve 3000 stakeholders from the registration process, each stake would be worth ~166,666.67 Kora coins

If coin supply is 10 billion then each stake would be ~1,666,666.67


1 billion Kora makes for a stake of ~167 thousand Kora coins
10 billion Kora makes for a stake of ~1.6 Million Kora coins

What gives the best psychology? Probably 10 billion as it makes everyone a Kora millionaire, and that 'feels' better than being a Kora 'thousandaire'

For a while I thought 50,000,000 Kora was best as a smaller supply has its own psychology, but somebody pointed out doing sums in your head is easier with a 1 followed by 0's.

We can have a vote.

My preference is probably 10 billion at this stage.

As always, express yourself. What do you think?

I would like be Kora millionaire than Kora thousandaire Grin , we can have vote from community once registration process completes.

I often confuse Kora and Kore.
The names are very similar!

i agreed. confused name.

Maybe this can help!

Quote
Kora (Tibetan: སྐོར་ར, THL: kor ra, Wylie: skor ra) is a transliteration of a Tibetan word that means "circumambulation" or "revolution". Kora is both a type of pilgrimage and a type of meditative practice in the Tibetan Buddhist or Bon (Tibetan: བོན, THL: Bön, Wylie: Bon) traditions. A Kora is performed by the practitioner making a circumambulation around a sacred site or object, typically as a constituent part of a pilgrimage, ceremony, celebration or ritual. However, in broader terms, it is a term that is often used to refer to the entire pilgrimage experience in the Tibetan Buddhist region.

Kora is a pilgrimage & a type of meditative practice!

Remember, Kora came first, and we're spiritual pilgrimes lol

Sounds like a good distribution model. Is it just a 1:1 clone of qora or are there any unique features / development planned ? Maybe in the future ?

I really hope we can attract a dev who will 'extend' Qora, but I'm not a dev myself, and so whether Kora becomes a 1:1 clone of Qora or not is yet to be decided. It wont be up to me, but I'll try as hard as I can to establish a good community around Kora, and if we succeed at that then you never know ... great active community will attract a better grade of dev, that's obvious. NEM experience gives me confidence!

I think 5% for webapp dev and clone creator each is too much. Why don't they just get a stake like everyone else and reserve some % for future development instead?

I respect your opinion! From my point of view the clone dev is THE critical dev for Kora, and remember, he/she will probably be the first to clone Qora, so I'd expect they will earn their 5%.

As for the webapp dev, his job is also critical, and Mac Red has provided a lot more input to Kora than just coding the registration webapp, so IMO he fully deserves his stake too. Given that I'm not a dev, and I'm a 'coinname= accountname' sockpuppet myself, Mac Red took a big risk with his time & effort in committing to join Kora, and in order to get a 'quality' applicant I needed to offer a more generous stake. I hope Mac Red sticks around (but he isn't obliged to), and his input has been critical in getting Kora on the launchpad & looking credible.

The first people to join something 'new' and untested have taken the biggest risk, and its fair they should get a higher reward.

I'm probably going to take 2% for myself, and I'll accept donations too. To date I've had expenses of 2 bitcoins (half still to pay), plus 1000 NXT asset listing fee, plus at least 3000 NXT in transaction fees to send out all the Kora stakes. I'll also offer a bounty to help code an automation script to send out the Kora stakes. As I'm just the Kora ring master, I think 2% to cover my expenses is fair.

I fully agree that these jobs are very important and that you guys should be paid for your work and to cover the expenses, but 12% of the whole currency suplply is way too much

Your point is valid. I do think that having a few large Kora holders on the dev team isn't a bad thing. Consider NXT. What would have happened after BCNext left NXT if Jean-Luc didn't have a ~5% stake in NXT? Nobody has to fund a bounty for the NXT core dev. He is fully funded from his 5% stake, and obviously motivated enough to contribute excellent work for all the stakeholders without needing to put out a 'begging bowl' for bounties. The fact that J-L Picard is self funded, and NXT has a core group of large stakeholders is a key factor in its success.

One criticism of NXT would be that some of the core dev team DO NOT have large stakes, and some key community members aren't large stakeholders either.

You make a valid point, but I think on balance it is justifiable to have some core people motivated with big stakes, and importantly, independent of the need to be funded out of personal bounties. The logic behind the 25% 'power bounties' is really to create merit based mini-whales.

A coin will die without motivated & compensated key people, especially POS coins.

Kora is an experiment, and part of the experiment is seeing what happens with this distribution.

50% - distributed equally to ~3000 webapp registration applicants
5% - goes to the registration webapp dev
5% - goes to the dev who clones Qora, and creates the Kora wallet applications
2% - Kora founder
8% - goes to node bot bounties
4% - website & marketing
1% - Qora dev
25% - POWER BOUNTIES

IMO if the webapp dev stake was too small I may never have attracted anyone, and if the clone dev stake is too small we might not attract a good candidate. My 2% is covering costs (and hopefully making a profit too), and the 1% to Qora dev is a thank you.

I do not under estimate the 'whale' factor with NXT. They get things done behind the scenes, and they have funds to donate for important work. 3000 equal stakeholders sounds nice, but IMO you need a few whales with commitment to make things happen.
