As I said before Saffroncoin needs a hook. With the amount of coins on the market most will be failures including many good coins. Having a good coin does not ensure success. Saffroncoin has a very good development team so far and a great wallet, but it will take more.

Many people who buy altcoins are looking for an investment. People are not going to spend their money on features unless they bring a return on investment. There is a differnce between gambling and investing.

Saffroncoin needs to take a leap of faith and go for broke with the intention to make the coin a DAC of some sort. This way the coin will be seen as an investment instrument. I think immediate emphasis should be on development sidechain assets that can be purchased and traded as shares and currencies. Each being convertable and divisible with Saffroncoin.

There are many coins and most will fail including some very good ones. I think that the natural evolution will be DAC's with the coin holders also being shareholders in something of value.

All this is being said not withstanding the roadmap which is good in my opinion. This in no way meant to slight talent of the dev team. This is business.




I don't think anyone including the devs will take what you said negative at all.  Sounds like you are offering some sound and thoughtful suggestions to help, not hurt.

Feel kinda ignorant asking this but can you explain more of what you mean in "making the coin a DAC of some sort"?  I am curious and just interested to better understand what you are suggesting.

I am suggesting that almost every coin will fail except those that become an investment instruments. There is always space for creative new companies to emerge. Just as there is Apple and Google there will be new inovated businesses in the future. A DAC is a Decentralized Autonimous Corpration. It will allow startups to have a global garage so to speak. Each participant will be able to share in a decentralized corporation. Saffroncoin has built features to help support this.

By building on a sidechain a DAC could offer shares of assests for sale. No one would have to be in charge. It would be trustless. Trustless because it is a rule based system and the rules cannot be volated. Shares would appreciate in value based on new assets being added and enhanced. Of course shareholders earn dividends.

For example say, SaffronShares sold shares of the DAC which was based on the new decentralized exchange. How many shares could be sold? How many SaffronShares could you buy with one Saffroncoin? This would provide a project that would continue develop for years. A DAC grows just like any other corporation except it is decentralized which makes it better. It can sell stock, aquire assets, create other startups, etc. Most importantly it would stand more independantly from Bitcoin over time. It would be a valuable asset in it's self.

Why because you have to mine it? Im not a miner, but mining gives coins some value. With your logic, I guess bitcoin is a waste of energy too, since it has to be mined.

Yup btc is eco disaster and it won't last long

ecological aspect have little impact on things, money involved into it have a bigger impact. With the money spent on asics for BTC, i don't think it will fail soon and if it fails i don't think it will be because it's not eco.

Do you consider switching Saffron to PoS?

why switching to PoS?
PoW is not good in long-term. It is just a waste of energy.

and PoS is a big hype for P&D coins right now. PoS bring nothing worth the hardfork.

Our new IRC channel is #sfrcoin. If you log in to the old #saffroncoin channel, you would get a message to shift to the new channel.

Thanks.

I know, I always cruise past my SFR holdings- never worried about the SFR market. But now that nearly ALL my coins are tanking, I had to look at Saffron this morning. All I can do is buy a bit more, and try not to think about the 3btc (profit)I passed up by not selling last week. I am very thankful for SFRPay- innovation within a wallet that is truly ground breaking- it's these things that the SFR Developers keep pushing out that helps a guy sleep at night.
Yes SFRPay is great to buy some SFR without the randomness of the market, you buy at a defined price at a T moment, and you have all the amount you want the next minute! Don't have to play with the market, just click "OK" and it's done Cheesy

I'm not worried. This coin will get bigger as more and more notice. Sometimes a lower price brings in more eyes. I bought with the intention of holding for a while anyway. And I have been mining. There's always going to be somebody who dumps. Eventually all the people who don't know what they're doing will have sold all their coins to people who do. I wouldn't be saying this on one of those XX hour POW/POS coins. Those are p&d. This dev has put a lot of work into this wallet and is still here and still active. Just keep holding!

I dont think its whales. The sell pressure exists from miners. It is summer. All markets are bleeding and Saffron although I think it is the best coin at the moment together with Shadowcoin, it is not a exception to the rule.

You have a point- electricity is at a premium right now- I didn't think of that. The whole market is tanking, even Bitcoin has gone down 7% in past 72 hours. Did this happen last summer?

Just checked out the statistics of SFRPay. It is a great success. Over 1 BTC worth of SFR bought in 2 days through the Saffron Wallet. We may consider adding Bitcoins too much later since some of you say that it takes 4 days for your BTC to reach you from coinbase.

If the exchange rate is good, I would use "SFRDirect for Bitcoin" !!

We will have a alpha version for you to test out in a couple of weeks time!

Fantastic, I'll gladly test it for you Smiley

Aren't there rules to apply for that kind of stuff?

anyways, cool achievements!
