I have a 5 bedroom home in the united states. The entire upstairs used to be rented out since is has a bathroom, kitchen and 2 bedrooms. I would be interested in renting it out and would like a breakdown on how that would take place.

Nice!

For the moment if your interested in the project you can hang out in our discord and monitor progress. I'm hoping to have the main app up and running with a crop of initial locations by next summer so I can go on what I call the MegaTOUR. I'm hoping to circumnavigate the whole world going from TOURIVA location to location all on camera to put on youtube. The operators of those locations are going to get handsome amounts of TOUR and exposure for their location.

When things are ready the experience of listing will be similar to AirBnB, you just put the details of the location your offering on the app and hopefully start recieving guests. You can then either hoard the TOUR and build masternodes or you can exchange it for fiat and cash out, that's your choice.

Hopefully the age of the chain will support our claim to being a geniune project and not some scam! Certainly if this was a scam it would have to be some sort of record holder for the longest slowest scam in history.

Another thing to consider if your going to join us is that as a low-cap coin, which has already been running for a significant time there is very little  inflation running now and any coins you obtain are not going to be swamped out by a high ROI peak 2 minutes after you buy them.

For me, the age of the chain does the exact opposite. It makes it look LIKE a scam, because who has all those coins if you just announced it? You have a mil coins yourself now? Do you have 371 mn? Nobody else is posting here, etc.

I'm interested in pow, but I didn't mine this because it's already nearly a year old and not on any exchanges, with today being the first announcement. Looks sketchy to me. Not looking for another coin to waste my time mining for it to just be dumped by the devs.

Tell me, what's the difference between a premine and announcing the coin after you mined it for a year? Like you said, it's a low cap coin. So, a million coins being in circulation for a low-cap coin that was just announced. Of course, I'm going to assume that you have them all. lol. If you don't, who does? Why aren't any of these other people posting in here? (inb4 a bunch of copper and below noobs start posting random support)

Your ann also has no links to anything but your website. No wallet, no block explorer, etc. No mention of pools. Very little content. Your website is basically the same, but at least has a block explorer and wallet link. It's almost like you don't even want miners to mine it.

You also talk so much about not being a scam that it's fishy. lol.

Most crypto scams don't make sense, so your "slowest scam in history" point is moot. "Touriva is entirely funded by donation" and "I don't take any money for this project" don't work well together. If I donate to the project, you take the money, right? It goes to your pocket, right? Sure you might invest it into the network, but you're benefitting from that too. Ultimately using someone else's money for your (and hopefully our) gain. Is that not taking money and profit?

Don't get me wrong, not saying you are definitely scamming people, or not, just explaining what I feel when I read over this thread, why I am not mining it, etc. Once I ran the wallet and seen 46 weeks, it was a wrap. lol

Hi BlockBob thanks for your question!

If your just looking to earn a bit of quick fiat currency there are many options online right now for you to do so, you can just list your accomodation option on AirBnB or Booking.com. Either option is safe, simple and .... boring.

TOURIVA is like a worldsized game of Monopoly where the goal is to build your very own TOURIVA hotel using the deflationary effect of crypto to your advantage such that hospitality services you offer early gain you far more tokens than you're likely to get later in the game for the same amount of effort.

Do you remember the 10,000 BTC pizza?

Offering a bed to sleep on the TOURIVA network is the equivalent of connecting an ASIC. Why would you spend hundreds of dollars buying ASIC hardware when you can just put those dollars in a bank or buy some stocks with them? The answer is because you expect to make a much larger return on your investment than you can on other options.

Later on in the development of the system I hope to obtain a tourism licence here in Dubai, and armed with that I will be able to send paying customers from here to stay in accomodation options around the world. If all goes to plan ( and it may not ) at that point these accomodation options will be like franchises, decorated and furnished with the TOURIVA brand, so that from an end users perspective it's like TOURIVA is hotel chain they can use and expect a uniform quality of service anywhere there is a TOURIVA location in the world.

The people who own and run these locations are going to be the ones who get the concept early and find ways to collaborate to make it happen. A determined group of people can achieve anything in this world.

As I've said in a previous comment, at this early stage I recognise that I need to earn your trust. There are many scams out there, but this is not one of them. I am quite open about the fact that this might not work at all, but if it does fail it will not be for lack of trying or because I was not on the level.

If the guest is paying in Fiat, why would i as a accommodation provider risk to be paid in your tokens?
What are the benefits of receiving payment in this form?

Yup, it's been running a fair old time. Originally this project was called TourCoin but there was another group who took the name and announced right before we were about to. It seemed at the time like they had just copied the idea and made a high ROI scam out of it. An argument ensued and the anonymous dev called me a theif of their idea! ( If you search TourCoin it might amuse you to read the threads ) The other TourCoin died not long after and I gave a bunch of their users a free swap out.

Anyway after that event it was decided to take a step back, rebrand the project and develop it quietly until it was in a much more advanced state and ready to start being open again.

TOURIVA is that new branding, the concept has been developed and refined for many months now.

If your thinking of obtaining some, you can do so on the exchange, I will not sell any TOURIVA directly and I've never taken a single penny to my pocket whilst running this. I won't be rewarded until I succeed in bringing this concept to market, I don't need to take anything I have a good job anyway.

We could do with any help in the form of donations, TOURIVA is 100% funded by donations and I personally spend $200 / month supporting the web servers for the ecosystem.

Like Simon said the current favorite 3rd party exchange is Crex24 but this is subject to change as our Donators ultimately decide what exchange we are going to list on. as for other sites we are planning to get listed on we are already on ihostmn and masternode-world for shared and hosted masternodes and we are looking at sites to add to this list.
We are also planning to get listed on all the major tracking sites ones we get listed on a 3rd party exchagne. so for example Coingecko, Blockfolio, Delta and obviously coinmarketcap.

Hi, thanks for your interest in Touriva!

We are not currently listed on any exchanges, trading is possible through our internal exchange which is in beta testing now. The internal exchange is key to how the TOURIVA system will work in the future because it will exchange tourists payments using creditcards to tokens. To understand that further consider the scenario when the main app is up and running and being promoted like any other tourist club and an end user who has no knowledge of crypto wishes to make a booking for a stay in a given location. From their perspective the App will work like any booking system, accepting their credit card details and notifying the host of the booking. Under the hood the system will use the funds from the credit card payment to purchase the lowest priced TOURIVA tokens from the TOUR / USD section of the exchange, and it will send those to the host as payment for the stay. This way the flow of end users taking vacations will provide a constant upwards pressure on the TOUR / USD market, and given that some of the hosts will prefer to hoard in order to build masternodes rather than immediately dump, it seems likely that somewhat less than 100% of the TOUR will re-enter the market, creating a deflationary pressure which increases as more tourists use the app and more hosts use their ASIC like income from their bed-mining activity to build up their Masternode holdings.

We do recognise that at this early stage trust in our systems is something we need to earn, and because of that we are also saving up in our donations pot towards getting listed on a 3rd party trusted exchange. I believe the current favourite choice is crex24, but that could change depending on future donations and/or the market value of BTC at the time the donator panel decides to spend from the donations pot to get listings or advertise the system.

TOURIVA The World is yours!

Homepage : https://touriva.info
Discord : https://discordapp.com/invite/wnteRpR

Introduction

We believe that crypto-currency is more than just a new type of payments system; it's a revolution which is going to fundamentally change
the way we do business both online and in the real world. We believe that in the future there will be millions of blockchains running
concurrently providing the basis for real world distributed business collaboration providing all manner of goods and services. Furthermore
we believe that the very notion of employer and employee will give way to a new paradigm of leaders and collaborators. Leaders will be anyone
who has a vision of how to use a blockchain to implement a real world business plan and collaborators will be anyone who participates or invests
in the plan to bring it to market. In the future deploying a new blockchain will be an action as uncontentious as setting up a webserver is today,
and the technology which powers the blockchain will be as unremarkable as the developers choice between using NGINX or APACHE.

TOURIVA is an attempt to model that future paradigm and bring it into the market in the here and now, by providing a platform through which
a globally distributed group of collaborators can provide services aimed at the travel and tourism industry. We seek collaborators worldwide
to provide TOURIVA branded services in exchange for TOURIVA tokens. Collaborators will not be employees, but rather independent service
providers who follow a set of guidelines in order for end users to enjoy a uniform experience when using the TOURIVA system to enjoy travelling.


Ways to Collaborate

Mining : TOURIVA offers 25% block reward for network hashpower support.
MasterNode : TOURIVA offers 75% block reward for Masternode holders with a 500 TOURIVA collateral.
Bed-mining : In TOURIVA, offering accomodation services is the real world equivalent of connecting to the network with an ASIC,
and due to the low coin cap, the quickest way to obtain TOURIVA will always be to provide the end user service of a place to
sleep in a desirable location.
Donation : The TOURIVA network is entirely funded by donation, and donators recieve access to a private channel on our discord.


Project Roadmap

Phase 1 (Complete) : Genesis block, wallets for Windows/MAC/Linux, establishment of discord channel
Phase 2 (Ongoing) : Development of web based ecosystem and infrastructure to facilitate trading and growth of the network.
Phase 3 : Bedspaces for Backpackers

It has been determined that the easiest way to bootstrap the TOURIVA global tourism network
will be in promoting the lowest cost types of accomodation first. From a simple airbed to a bunkbed dormitory,
the focus will be on providing simple cheap accomodation to thrifty backpacker travellers on a budget.

The Touriva travel app will work in a similar manner to AirBnB and will for the most part hide the fact that TOURIVA
uses crypto-currency so that end users will not need to know or care about crypto in order to make bookings. This is
crucial in many ways, and it also allows for the system to be marketed on Facebook to backpackers and other tourists.

We are not planning on having fees or commissions for listings on TOURIVA, however if the situation calls for it in
the future we reserve the right to do so, for instance to cover marketing or other costs, and we pledge that TOURIVA
fees will always be very small.

Phase 4 : Dedicated Rooms for Couples / Families

Granted success in phase 3, many early accomodation providers will likely become large holders of TOURIVA, and given that
TOURIVA is a Masternode based network with a low coin cap, it seems likely that the value of an individual TOURIVA token
will rise with demand generated in phase 3. This will enable collaborators to begin providing larger scale accomodation options
such as renting a whole apartment to rent out the rooms to tourists who want a double or kingsize bed.

Phase 5 : Small hotels

In many parts of the world it's possible to rent small dedicated hotel units and furnish them under the TOURIVA branding. We hope
that success in the earlier phases will enable the biggest collaborators to begin offering this level of service under the TOURIVA
branding. It is also possible that at this point collaborators will be able to negotiate with small hotel owners to bring their
hotels into the TOURIVA system.

Phase 6 : Large Hotels / Resorts

We believe it's possible and we hope it will happen, that the most profitable ventures in TOURIVA will eventually be able to afford
to purchase or even construct dedicated large hotels and resorts around the world. This represents the ultimate end game for TOURIVA,
the bootstrapping of a true global competitor in the hospitality market, one which can perform to the same standard as any existing
luxury accomodation experience provider.
