Hey everyone, just to keep you all informed because I see it's now leaked into the AsiaCoin thread.... heh....
So I've received numerous requests from the AsiaCoin community for help and support from myself and the whitecoin foundation. Naturally, I told them I have my hands a bit full right now. However, throughout the conversation an idea did get floated:
Concept: WhiteCoin was saved and revived because of a community rallying that went outside its own community and into the world at large of crypto. In many ways, we owe a debt to our larger community. But we also owe existing debts to the individuals who helped us save WhiteCoin.
Proposed compromised: I suggested, that if a bounty were gathered by the AsiaCoin community and donated to the WhiteCoin Foundation (specifically to pay our team for work done to date), that it would then be something worth considering in WhiteCoin's best interest.
To make things clear: This is only a proposal. I'd like everyone's opinion on this.
And to be very specific, I would not be taking the lead of AsiaCoin. I would offer them my knowledge and instruction on how to organize as we have, in exchange for a donation to our community. This in the end would not take much of my time at all, because I'd be taking from existing material to help teach them:
- How to properly rally a community
- The different between begin a leader and a pr rep
- Instruction on how to operate a team with a democratic consensus based approach
- Instruction on how to independently verify the work of strangers you don't know over the internet
To make clear again, if we did this, I would not be taking on a leadership role in AsiaCoin.
I look forward to your thoughts, and thanks very much.

I say go for it. Its win-win if we help them survive. First of all if they donate to the WC fund, that's great you guys deserve much compensation for your work so far. And if you successfully save asiacoin I can guarantee whitecoin would see a boost of support from the AC community. They would invest in WC and they would be a part of our community just like we would be a part of theirs.
Strength in numbers. Its tough in the crypto world, you need all the allies you can get.
