Thanks! I've tested it on a few different PC's and on some it doesn't display?

Anyway, spread the word!!! Smiley

Are we going to open a new thread for the registration?

Probably, Kora will decide if we'll open a new one or just continue discussion on this.


I probably prefer to keep this thread going to keep everything together. I have absolutely no problem if another person wants to start another thread though Smiley


Can someone confirm they can see the clock timer below?

The 'power bounties' can be a merit based equivalent of those "whole bitcoin sender stakes" in NXT. That is my hope anyway. I don't think 1/3000th share of Kora will motivate people to make Kora a top 10 coin, but 2-5% "power bounties" can, especially for people who could not even imagine paying ~600 USD for 1 bitcoin to invest in an IPO like NXT or Qora.


That's so true, without incentive all that is left is pump & dump. Nobody risk holding and wasting their time unless they get paid for their effort (either increase in a paid stake OR a bounty).

Looking forward to this coin launch - KORA!

so when will registration for this be open?

Registrations will open soon! Mac Red is doing a fantastic job with the registration system. Once everything is ready I will give 24-48 hours warning of the launch. 3000 spots is a lot, but you never know ... they might go fast. Once the launch date is announced feel free to promote Kora as much as you can.

Remember, I'm just one guy, and not that smart (that's why I need smart guys like Mac Red to help me). If Kora is to succeed it WILL need the support of lots of people. Later after the launch the community will have the 'power bounties' to distribute, but right now during the registration phase we'll be relying on each other to spread the word.

I'll pay Mac Red for his work on the registration system, and then I'll distribute the Kora tokens on the NXT AE. After that I'm hoping people with time & skills & passion will step up and start 'doing things' to make Kora a success. Kora is decentralised from NOW. I'm just the guy flicking the switch, I'm not the leader Smiley

I think the 'power bounties' will be crucial. My big criticism of IPO's like NXT and Qora  is they favour people with bitcoins who could invest. That cuts out a lot of people though - people from countries with low exchange rates, students, younger people ... poor people!

Kora is an experiment (like all crypto), and I want to see if we can bootstrap a coin that attracts talented passionate people, even though nobody will have paid anything to get their original stake. Many die-hard bitcoin people would say this is impossible, and that one of the functions of POW is to infuse bitcoins with 'value', as the miners have expended resources to get them (hardware, electricity).

Many think that coins given away for free are not valued enough, and people will dump asap for a quick profit. I think there is some evidence to show this *can* be true after 200+ bitcoin clones, but Kora will be the first Qora clone, and Qora is obviously a wonderful piece of software, and crucially, I think the power bounties can do for Kora what the 8 "whole bitcoin senders" did for NXT.

Undoubtedly the 8 people who sent ~1 bitcoin into NXT (and received ~5% stake) are hugely responsible for making NXT what it is. They were/are obviously motivated to do what it takes to see their 5% stake in NXT increase in value, and what they do behind the scenes is obviously working. NXT is by far the most developed coin after bitcoin, and it's all been 100% decentralised!

The 'power bounties' can be a merit based equivalent of those "whole bitcoin sender stakes" in NXT. That is my hope anyway. I don't think 1/3000th share of Kora will motivate people to make Kora a top 10 coin, but 2-5% "power bounties" can, especially for people who could not even imagine paying ~600 USD for 1 bitcoin to invest in an IPO like NXT or Qora.

I believe Kora can succeed if those that do the most to support Kora are paid the 'power bounties', and it will be the community who decide who gets them, not me, I'll be gone by then. That is my hope anyway!

We're getting close, so remember this is a brain storming thread, and I'm always open to ideas Smiley

To give you guys some status on the reg app, I gave Kora full access to source code and database. This was my idea, a gesture to garuantee there will be no manipulation from the app developer.

Before I did this, he accepted my proposal to split up the initial payment (out of his own pocket) in two parts, one now (received) and the other after we got 3000 names.

So hopefully we'll have some kind of opening date for everyone soon. Cool

Will registration for the distribution take place after qora releases it's source code, or before?

No, we don't need to wait for the Qora source code to be released before launching Kora.

The registration period will open soon, and once we have the list of stakeholder names & NXT addresses, we will issue Kora tokens on the NXT AE.

Kora will be launched, and traded, well before the Qora source code is released.

I've seen the progress Mac Red has made on the registration webapp, and I'm happy to report it is excellent!!

Stay tuned for more news soon!
good news.
hope I can get some coins.

So, is there any way that we can work towards the Distributed Automated Corporations?
What would it entail?
Practical steps are.... ?

I would like to understand it better, since a lot of people are concerned about their privacy, yet we are daily recorded on video, you can not cross a border without biometrics and the savvy stores know if your daughter is pregnant before you know it, based upon the shopping behaviors.

PS:
I started a thread just to give the Proof of Person concept a little more publicity:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7284313

I think we're at very early stages with DAC development, but IMO progress will be made over the next 3-5 years.

Some good information here: http://coinwiki.info/en/Decentralized_autonomous_corporation

The penny dropped for me after I read this post from Adam B Levine on the bitshares site.
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=1854.0

http://newswax.com/2014/01/implications-crypto-assets-part-3-distributed-autonomous-corporations/

Many second generation crypto platforms like NXT & Etherium & Bitshares & Noirshares (and others) are working on DAC's right now. Their potential to disrupt many industries (and the internet generally) in enormous, BUT, we will need to wait a little longer before we see them in action.
