Topic: [ANN][GEMZ] GetGems - Social Messaging App That Pays - Live on Android, iOS, Web - page 167. (Read 597188 times)

My last four attempts in the last two days to withdraw gems from polienex ended with an COMPLETE: ERROR status.....  Anybody else have the same problem?

Despite what some people say in this thread, allowing short gifs (or similar formats) in an unobtrusive manner is a HUGE selling point for a chat application and something that WhatsApp and several others don't think is worth the time of day.

I got my dads friend into Getgems, he was pretty much sold when he saw the gif feature : p, a good gateway to bitcoin network.

^ and bitcoin reminds me to failed earlier digital currencies with a similar model, bitcoin must be a scam! Luckily Getgems will be used outside of bitcointalk trolls and everything about it just makes sense and has a purpose for people to use so nobody cares what u say.

Not trying to fud anyone.

We are building an app that is very similar to WhatsApp that everyone knows and is used to but with 3 main advantages:
(1) the users own the network - you get rewarded for inviting more people to use the app and also get paid for accepting unsolicited messages and sharing more information.
(2) you can be as anonymous as you desire.
(3) the app is going to function also as an easy to use wallet - the username is an alias to the gems address, making sending & receiving gems and bitcoins between users as easy as possible.  Sending gems/bitcoins will be as simple as sending an SMS to your friend.

We think that these 3 points will make it a lot easier for new non techie people to join the cryptocurrency revolution.

In our opinion the main attraction to the currency will be driven by 1) user growth and 2) text usage.

Unlike most coin Gems are backed up by real value which is the users thus advertiser will be the main reason to the drive the value of gems higher. Advertiser need to buy gems in the exchanges in order to send unsolicited messages to the network - so there will always be a demand to buy gems in the market.

If users accept to receive unsolicited messages they will be reward with gems. if users give more information about themselves they will be reward with gems. but if you want to stay anonymous and not receive any “spam” you can do that also.

We think this model is a good solution to the "spam problem" every social network has - would love some feedback/suggestion about the "Gems Pay For Social Reach" model?

The Obama admin has given Gems yet another gift. If Gems doesn't have our info then I guess they can't share it.

Marketing marketing marketing ......

-Looks better than whatsapp
-100% free (whatsapp costs like 0,8 euro a year)
-lightning fast and easy payment methods in btc and gems
-secure .. nobody can read your stuff etc

I missed something? hehe So where on the internet can people see the advantages of gems etc? I could only persuade 3-4 friends to install the gems messenger. They dont care about security and one of them said .... quote: wtf is cryptocurrencies?

Basically we need whatsapp to get hacked... very very hard... sooo hard that people cant use the app for dayzzzz... If something like this occurs in the future and gems isnt exploiting this happening then i don't think you are ruthless enough to be the best.

Making new tech is nice, but if you dont crave to be the best and be ruthless .... then lesser tech will beat you

Although none of these apps make it able to do money transactions instantly with zero fees and rewarding users like gems plans to do. This alone is revolutionary. This app needs to go mainstream before one of these messengers start to copy its model.

I think every legit feature the community wants to see can and will eventually get implemented, updating the code is something that is always happening. Even apps that are out for years are still improving. I think there are some suggestions by the community regarding features, something for Danial maybe in the next Q&A.

I hope the app doesn't become too cluttered.

Saying that I live in Korea and would love it if Gemz developed later into something like Kaotalk. I don't know much about messenger apps but there seems a lot of room for expansion once you get users onboard. I think Kaotalk has separate apps though. I wonder if the Gems team have a product they want to emulate or have a separate vision? Will the app ever get a calling option?
