Hi ORA developers and supporters!

I like the current ORA price!

I will like it even more when you give all us dumpers, the extra stake we truly deserve!

Then I will be able to re-buy my stake at 0.001 NXT or  less.
Cheers.

Hm I think you missed the part where we didn't have a vote yet on what to do with the leftover stakes. Too eager I guess. We don't judge you man it's free market.

Remember, deadline for submitting logo designs is 17 August 2014!

Your design might get 'Logo bombed' on television somewhere Smiley

edit: Here is my Logo top 10!

Legit entry : full stake. Justification : proof of work.

That's what I think! Reviewing the entries for 'legit status' will be a good community activity too, and probably a lot of fun Smiley

Official pre-announcement of an intention to post an announcement!

One of my suggested 'actions' that people could perform to 'earn' an ORA stake is submit an entry in the inaugural 'CryptFest: Crypto short film festival'. The community will need to decide if we end up 'paying' every person who submits an entry an ORA stake, but I can confirm that CryptFest will be proceeding in some form.

fragORA is currently working on the CryptFest site, and I must say I'm pretty pumped over what I've seen so far. I'm putting up the prize money, so even if the vote decides to distribute the left over stakes in another way that doesn't leave room for paying people to enter 'CryptFest', there'll still be the official first prize, the Palme d'ORA!

If anyone has any suggestions please feel free to make them now. I'm using the 'Tropfest' short film festival as inspiration for CryptFest (and blatantly copying their name ... imitation, greatest form of flattery and all that lol), but if anybody can help with the basic outline of the plan let me know. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropfest

My thinking is to make the definition of 'Short film' as broad as possible, so fiction, non-fiction, video of a monologue/dialogue etc is fine. Could be a song, poem, animation, multi-media etc ... anything really, as long as you can upload it to youtube.

I think to ensure we get good entries, and to extract the maximum marketing benefit possible, I'm thinking the closing date for entries should be at least 2 months from now. If the community decides to pay every entrant a stake, then we need to wait until after the vote to confirm that, but I think it's wise to announce the intention to announce so serious entrants have enough time. Depending on the reaction we get (which I'm hoping will extend across the wider crypto community) I could possibly make the prize a bit bigger too. If you want to catch a big fish, you need a big worm Smiley

Sponsored by: ORA

First Prize - the Palme d'ORA
- 2 bitcoins
- 5 Million ORA assets

Your mission should you choose to accept it
Submit a new short film or multimedia work on the theme of 'Cryptographic currencies'

To help ensure entries are unique & new you must include "Starfish" as a 'signature item' in your work.

Conditions
- Your submission must be a new original work
- You can submit as many entries as you want
- Your work must be less than 5 minutes
- You can work in teams, but you can only submit your own work
- You must consent to having your work displayed on ORA affiliated websites

- ORA may include your work on a 'festival' DVD (all DVD sales will be in ORA, and go into the ORA charity fund)
- Nothing racist, defamatory, derogatory
- Don't infringe anybodies copyright without permission


edit: Tropfest adds a new signature item every year to ensure they get 'new' work. It just means the signature item has to make a cameo in every entry somewhere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropfest#Signature_item


Nice!! I don't think you need to make the prize bigger. It's generous enough as it is to attract 'professionals' to the contest  Wink
Paying every entrant (with a few conditions to prevent abuse) a stake is a good idea and would definitely bring a lot more people to participate.

Thanks for the feedback! I hope we attract some professionals, (that's definitely the goal), so I want the prize to appear 'big'. In years to come the honour of winning the Palme d'ORA might be prestigious enough to attract talent without big $$, but for the inaugural event I think the 'honey pot' has to be extra sweet lol

The prize will be held in an escrow fund too. Still need to work out how the judging would work. I'm thinking a panel of three judges, try and get the biggest 'crypto' names we can. Crypto media people maybe. Ideas anyone?

edit: how much would be a reasonable payment for a legit entry? A full stake ...

In my 'stump speech' above to try and convince you all to vote to continue the distribution, I mentioned we can use the left over stakes to make a 'values statement' about ORA.

A couple of days ago a dear friend of mine finally succumbed to cancer, and even though I knew it was coming, it was still a shock when I got the news, and my heart has been heavy ever since with sadness. Then I opened my yahoo mail today and saw this 'advert'



When I looked at that little boys smile I felt great to be alive again. I don't know what he's holding, but it's obviously something special to him.

How can we give some ORA stakes to children like Jorge? It must be possible!

@ Kora,

Chaos514 and me are already working on this. I would like to ask Chaos514's permission to publish our communication here.

@Darkhorse, cool, that sounds great!! I'm looking forward to learning more Smiley
