I don't understand one thing about this.

This startup is intended to give "crowdfunders" equity in return for investing in their startup idea...

So shouldn't people who "crowdfund" your startup receive equity in your startup in return?  This is what you stand for, however, I don't see any reference to you actually practicing what you're preaching.

I apologize if a missed a point and this is what you are actually doing.

Correct me if I'm wrong but my understanding is that

1. The swarm platform is for startups to "crowdfund" their ideas

2. People who "crowdfund" into the swarm startup, receive dividends/equity from all startups that use the swarm platform

Also, are there plans for an audit somewhere down the line? Cheers


Hmmm well I think it goes more like this...


1. Take 4,200 BTC, about $2.7 Million USD, from crypto users for "Round 1" funding.

2. Take another 17,500 BTC, about $11.2 Million USD, from crypto users for "Round 2" funding.


Just needed to point out they want almost $14 MILLION USD to make a kickstarter clone that uses one form of crypto rather than cash...

Facebook only received $500,000 in it's first round of funding by the way. The "Rounds" were at least a year apart not a month...


ok now we can continue...
 


3. Give said users a 100% pre-mined coin.

4. Try to make a Kickstarter website that only uses this new SWARM coin and hope the crypto community uses it, because no one else will.

5. If someone happens to use the site to get funded then give a very small percent of the funding money raised to people that hold the coin. This will just be more SWARM coin by the way.

6. The funded user gets the majority of the SWARM coin but that's all.

7. The funded user DUMPS all of their SWARM on the first exchange they can find to fund the project, crippling the SWARM price on the market.

8. Devs DUMP all the rest of the pre-mine they have since their shares are quickly becoming worth 1 Satoshi a piece.

9. All users that bought into this "investment" cry on the forums that they were scammed.

10. All others user point out that they told you so by linking to old posts.


There you go the 10 phases of this coin, if it even reaches phase 5. If not it will skip to phase 8 and continue.

How long does it typically take for Swarm to arrive?

All XCP Swarm purchases have been processed and should be in your wallet within an hour of this message.


Whats the XCP rate ? how much swarm per xcp ?

The rate of exchange on the last XCP transaction processed was 1 XCP : 16.81614 SWARM

Though remember that this changes as the sale progresses (the same as BTC purchases). 

This equates to an XCP price of approx 0.0033 BTC


My Swarm have arrived in my counterwallet. Thank you.

[I think you should study something, that you are somehow "redoing" and should be able to explain a difference

DACs are about new ways to use a blockchain.

I think Swarm is about crowdfunding any project, for example something you might sell in a store. (Occulus Rift)

This is correct. As mentioned in the first post, Swarm is building a crowdfunding platform similar to Kickstarter with a decentralized due dilligence model. Nothing I've seen from Bitshares indicates that they are doing anything close to this.

can you explain the difference to bitshares?

To be perfectly honest I have no idea what bitshares is doing. There are so many different types of shares (X, XT, XTS, AGS, PTS, Protoshares, etc.) and it confuses the hell out of me.

They're also changing their idea constantly. They want to create 8-9 different blockchains, and a system called DPOS where people VOTE on blocks (sort of like mining by hand? or something). Im fairly sure nobody really understands BitShares.


they are doing, what you are doing.
pts = protoshares = bitshares is the cryptocurrency compared to yours
AGS is something similar but not tradeable
all others are already implemented "crowdfundings" (as you call it) and don't belong to the main idea

I tried to get Swarm by sending XCP from my counterwallet to

1GZETJd1wy9u4qGzCVPmhpUTpRJjbp5eZc

How long does it typically take for Swarm to arrive?

I have +14 confirmations for the transaction in BTC block chain but no Swarm.....

Our vending machine for XCP <-> Swarm is not really working and best case scenario we will have it working on Thursday. In the mean time transactions will be processed manually. Sorry for delays.

I still don't have my Swarm Sad. I do not like having my money on a non-viewable account on the amorphous blob of internets.

How long should I expect the manual transaction process to take?

Thanks,

paws

@fractastical did you avoid my question on purpose ?

Its a simple question, whats the XCP value for buying swarm ?

A team member was supposed to have a spreadsheet to share with these details. I am bugging him to get it to me. Will come soon.

About these GOLDTICKETS. I have a few, but I have no intention of travelling. Will they have any use other than event access? If not will there be sufficient time after their purpose is announced for me to sell mine?

Purpose should be announced within the next 48 hrs. You will have enough time to sell.

What exactly is innovative here? What is the swarm team producing expect for a thin layer on top of counterparty? Seems like a marketing team trying to get paid for developers work.

You could argue that Kickstarter is a thin layer for marketing projects on top of MySQL. But that is a valuable layer worth over a billion dollars. Same thing for the NASDAQ. What makes it so valuable isn't the database layer, it's the services on top of it. This includes marketing but it's not only marketing.

Is there a commitment to transparency regarding salaries and "agents and miscellaneous" (genuine Q, I haven't seen it)?  Regular reports, published BTC addresses, that sort of thing?


We've committed to holding a monthly meeting with our advisors (at the moment Vitalik Buterin, David Johnston and xnova of Counterparty), after which we release the minutes and a monthly progress report including expenditures.

The agenda suggested was:

Kudos for the idea, the brand, the momentum.  Good luck!

Thanks!
