Thanks for calling me one of "the best" and "trustworthy". Tongue

However I believe tasks should be allocated not roles. If somebody steps up to do a task then they can do it. Only one of the things you listed is a task, the coordinator position, as he keeps track of who is working on what tasks.

Chargin.

I think the likely challenge with that is no one being responsible for any 1 kind of task.

We can easily test that now by offering a couple of example (but real) tasks that need to be performed now and see who will volunteer. We then take the result and assume that the reality would be half that (as people know that it is an example to test their resolve).

Imagine how fast the gossip will spread when finally a grocery store is accepting "credit cards" payments (karma). people all over the world can send their loves one karma coin with in 3 minutes into their account. they don't have to do anything else then start using to buy food and clothes for themselves.



In principal I agree with you.

In reality I think there are presently 2 issues with Karma that, if not addressed, could make this adoption problematic...

1. Confirmation time... 200 confirmations required by Exchanges means the Payment Processor holds the risk for a long time.

2. Total Coin Supply & Value... Too many zeroes (imho) for day-to-day use.  Roughly USD $5 == PH 500p == 1 LTC == 1,000,000 Karma (@100 litosho)

Both these could be addressed by forking to a new wallet with supply of 920M (as suggested by someone earlier)

1, There is no need to involve exchange in such transactions

2. The price of Karma can be continually repriced for sake of these transactions, independent of exchanges. We would be letting an exchange that voluntarily decided to add Karma determine the value of Karma in these transactions. On their exchange, few-to-none of these new participants interact.

If, for example, these participants comprise 95% of all actual Karma usage it would not make sense to let an external marketplace (MintPal and it's KARM/*TC participants) determine the value that they receive for each Karma. The value should be determined much more by where the Karma is actually used, not traded.

Karma should therefore be priced independently of the exchanges with a "blue" market rate (an official black market), with a new limit to how many can be exchanged on this market each day (to mitigate the arbitrage problem).

If you have noticed this is the way we operate before:

Someone would say:

1. "Let us make a tipping drive to get more Karma users!"  Others would go: "Nah, it does not work...it's a waste of time, 'been there."
2. "Let us apply to the mobile tipping apps, so people can pay with karma!" Others: "Nah. Karma is too cheap...they would need millions to pay for an item."
3. "Let us make a gaming site where Karma can be used!" Others: "We may run into legal problems with that."
4. "Let us make an online market with Karma currency as payment. " argument number 2 "
5. "Let us make Karma a means to help the poor and remittance sender of the Philippines and Africa!" Others; "Preposterous, bitcoin has done that already, we cannot compete!"

Essentially making KARMA useless. So why don't we change the tune? Instead of contradicting each other's ideas, why don't we find solutions together to make them all feasible and profitable.

So much to do and no one to do them. Join us on Trello https://trello.com/easteagle13/recommend and together make our Karma dreams come true!

Let us give the community more options to use Karma.

STEP 1.   Register in casheer forum.

STEP 2.   Make a comment on this request. http://forum.casheer.net/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=171&p=1250#p1250

Is this hard to do? No. Will you need to pay to finish this task? No.

Yet, even this tiny, little effort, anyone can raise a good argument on why he would not do it. Like:" Karma is too cheap! We cannot make people to choose to pay with karma! "

Don't find obstacles for our efforts. Find solutions.


Go there. Make that supportive comment. When they add us, people can then decide if they want to use Karma or not. At least we are already done with that task!

Welcome Warfwarf and pdogg147 to trello!

Chargin, join the organization drive and improve matters from within. Join trello please.  https://trello.com/easteagle13/recommend

The same open invitation goes to everyone here. Let us be organized and brainstorm on what route should Karma and the community take within the next 3 months.

Or waste time talking here about POSSIBLE solutions, without an organization that will make it a reality.


We have seen that no matter how good a man can be, he cannot do this alone. So, no individual here can make Karma succeed. ONLY THE COMMUNITY EFFORT CAN.

THIS IS OUR CHOICE TO MAKE.


Stop dreaming wake up. Join the Karma brotherhood.

In principal I agree with you.

In reality I think there are presently 2 issues with Karma that, if not addressed, could make this adoption problematic...

1. Confirmation time... 200 confirmations required by Exchanges means the Payment Processor holds the risk for a long time.

2. Total Coin Supply & Value... Too many zeroes (imho) for day-to-day use.  Roughly USD $5 == PH 500p == 1 LTC == 1,000,000 Karma (@100 litosho)

Both these could be addressed by forking to a new wallet with supply of 920M (as suggested by someone earlier)

i always voiced my opinion on too many coin. ever since we were at 40 bill. Lunching a new coin at that time was not optional so i was requesting we stop the coin bleeding by x1000. at that time the community said that it would lower the nethashare and it would be a problem. here we are with low hashrate now anyways and with 20+ Billions more coin.

Yes. to making anything possible to reduce the numbers. i would prefer 92 million coins. karma will be cheap so the price wont prevent people to buy them at beginning. I really would like us to focus on this and find a solution

As far as exchanges having 200 confirmation this would be hard to remove. They have a saying in it. they do it to prevent double spending from coins that have low total network hashrates. Reddcoin had 1000 confirmation because of this.

By fixing the number of coins and creating a demand it will prompt miners to jump on our coin increasing the hashrates and helping remove the 200 confirmations

In case you missed the several times we have covered this, "while the manager essentially liquidated a large percent of his personal holdings on the open market"... is simply an unfounded and quite a bit of an ignorant (and offensive) statement.

Also, we did not raise funds. It's cryptocurrency.

And in case you've been asleep at the wheel, the IRS considers them in the same class as they do property aka stocks and bonds.

Even Bittrex has the explicit approval from FINCEN to operate as cryptocurrency exchange...

....Let us not miss this train. Lets not focus majority of our energy to try to be tipping coin. Every single coin that come out uses this analogy. Lets be something greater. Lets create a payment network for people who can not afford the huge fees of the Banks!

This makes the most sense of anything I've read here the last few days during all these huge quote boxes and
people old and new going in so many different directions its hard to keep up with them all.
Charity and tipping won't grow any coin.
A coin must be a means of a fast, smooth and clean transaction to be of any use in the world crypto or otherwise.
Easy to get, easy to keep and easy to spend.



Indeed!
