I think the biggest thing that needs to be done is that we need to simply change the course of mooncoin. All other coins are based on speculation about the future of digital currencies. Mooncoin is in the wrong arena for that kind of work.
The next course with this kind of currency is the true democratization of funding. If mooncoin became one of the few strong coins to seriously embark on funding projects, namely space/science projects; you have a market for the coin that is no longer just about the coin, but the potential of the coin. Bitcoin has no point to it other than to show the potential of these different currencies. It in a way is like gold. Mooncoin along with other coins should be more like stock. You invest in this coin, you invest in future projects.
Some have put together small pools to donate to space camps and to help fund projects. But if we really push I bet these potential projects would not reject free money. It ties them to not only to a community and a cash supply, but also a cash supply that doesn't come with a set of rules to follow. This gives researchers the freedom to actually dig into their research.
All that's really needed is a system for which projects to fund. The democratization of funding comes back to mind
I like your thinking here. At the moment as this currency is very young, I think we need to however find a project people are willing to help with. Right now I doubt there are any chinese interested in funding a space related project that is going to be spent in any other country than China. So unless we can get huge parties involved that are particulary interested in science projects I think we are probably better off starting a project that everyone feels good with. Maybe at a later stage when we get some spaceagencies involved and more recognition (working on that) we might be able to support bigger projects and indeed function as a stock for spaceprojects etc. , but we have to start somewhere.
What you are mentioning about projects being subsidised without a set of rules to follow is indeed very interesting and we have to keep that one in mind.
On another note, if you do see scope in such thing working I would really like to hear how you would setup and why you think the cryptocommunity will jump on a spacerelated project at this stage.
My point is we need to see something good happen that is done by the mooncoin community showing our goodwill. This can be done by finalising a smaller project and showing the results of the outcome of being part of the mooncoin community. By helping people we could feel proud of our community and we can build from there. As a future prospect I like to see mooncoin grow as a coin that helps people to the moon and with that we could also support space projects along the way. Or vice versa.
It is just my view I am open for any suggestions and as a community we will slowly head towards a certain direction. Let me just say I already have a good vibe with this community
