Dyna, this material has been a primary focus of mine since oil crossed the $100-per-barrel mark in January, 2008. It's why I got into cryptos.

By nature, I make a strong effort to be positive with a high preference to effect a productive and positive out come. There are many indicators around the world that are beginning to look quite troubling.
I am not against the rich. In fact I envy those who are successful in business. However, I am seriously concerned that the working class is being squeezed to the breaking point in many parts of the world. Many who are currently considered "working middle class" could be forced down to be the new "poor". Relatively speaking, being poor was not so bad when I was growing up as a kid. We hardly had any bills to pay. That is no longer the case today. Collectively, we are paying hundreds of billion of dollars in credit card interest alone. And, of course, there are many other monthly bills to pay. It is heartbreaking to see the Greek citizens in such financial struggle. It would be nice to be of some help.

I liked 26 from the first batch. I couldn't figure out what font it was, but it has a legal and professional look to it.

Thanks, cojack. Interesting concept. We may not want the "executive brief case" look so dominating.

Hi Mark, you have certainly picked the right subject matter. There will be a lot of headline news on these. There are a lot on uncertainties around the world. Our article on Greece's financial crises should start showing up in various news outlet worldwide. I am watching anxiously.

We are developing a response to Greece financial crises scheduled for immediate release first thing Monday AM. Here is a portion of our draft copy subject to change and further editing:
Grexit Digital Currency Long Term Solution? Co-Founder of DNotes, Alan Yong Shares His Vision.
Summary: With Greece's Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras suggesting the Greek government could issue their own digital currency – is this a viable solution? Alan Yong of DNotes explores how an established, ethical digital currency may be the most sustainable long term solution for Greece, and why digital currency enables anyone to access their money whenever they need it.
“This is a very sad and tragic situation. The rich may end up losing a vacation home in a foreign country but many of the less fortunate are at risk of losing their entire life savings, while being too old to rebuild their nest egg. It is even more depressing when no viable political solutions exist to give Greece’s citizens any hope of rebuilding their financial future”, - Alan Yong, tech Entrepreneur and Co-Founder of DNotes.

I can confirm that this has been scheduled for release first thing (AM) on Monday July 6, 2015.
Very excited DYNA. This is, I believe, DNotes first Press Release that focuses on current challenges and world events. There are some very interesting conversations happening on my Facebook instigated by academics that I have been reading, and digital currency has not entered the discourse due to their lack of experience on the topic. Looking very forward to this PR turning up in the media so I may link it (and then probably educate / defend sceptical critique from them).
*On a separate note, the guys who want to do filming for the first video wish to meet me to get a feel of what I specifically want to do on July 13th (which, annoyingly enough is the day I return to uni - but we will make do). I'd hope to have a final product finished as soon as possible - do filming, then put out one video to begin for community critique, and we can decide from there what level we want to aim for due to cost constraints. A simple interview is relatively cheap to produce with some overlaid shots of say: someone at a computer using crypto, somebody doing some study, people buying things at a market etc. The more 'basic' the videos produced though, would also increase the chances they would be 'redone' in the future as DNotes rises in prominence - another consideration.
I'm all for ideas / input. Currently, I'm considering an interview style *similar* to this one (a friend from my gym) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxW1rH6yi-c. The interview is quite basic, with some overlaid shots of him doing stuff in the gym and walking round etc to create additional interest, albeit the camera isn't in focus!! Imagine a similar video made, but for DNotes and being more scripted. I'm interested in seeing any youtube interviews people have seen to use as a template. What do you all think?
Excellent press release. I am very anxious too.
It is easiest to use a news interview format for our first batch of Youtube videos. I just sent you an email with further details.

"This should be interesting..." Politicians are good at coming to a compromise at the last minute. So any number of things can happen. Unfortunately, political solutions will not be sufficient. So .. let's wait and see ...

A couple more concepts for #20.

I was reading the economic section of this forum on how one gentleman got a hair cut in Cyprus and was thinking of turning to bitcoin to pay his employees so i directed him to this thread so I hope that he might join the CRISP FOR EMPLOYER'S program.. 
Excellent idea. I am sure that our community will come together and adopt one small town if there is local interest. We will reach out and hold every hand if we have to. Yes, we will do everything we can.
“Suicides are up 36 percent since 2008,” according Arianna Huffington(1). Financial disaster is a serious human suffering. The feeling of helplessness and desperation with nothing left to hope for is a leading cause of suicidal thoughts. I have very strong empathy for those small business owners who have worked hard all their life and lost everything. I have been down that route once. When IBM decided to write-off $40 million and dumped thousands of Dauphin DTRs, due lower demand for the products than projected, in the close-out markets, I lost everything ($ millions) overnight. It was a very depressing experience.

Here is a good exercise for our community. What are the different industry problems DNotes has identified and the solutions it has introduced? You can name one or all. As a group I am certain that we can complete the exercise.
Just to name a few:
-Volatility
-Long term saving incentive
-Negative forum behavior
-Gender gap
-Ease of use
-Too many conflicting interests
-Attempting to reach out to everyday people
Excellent first pass. Keep adding and refining the list with DNotes solutions. May be Wiser can write up the final version to be a DCEBrief.
A few industry problems that DNotes has addressed (whether intentionally or unintentionally):
- Lack of trust and integrity
- Lack of leadership both within the industry and at the currency level
- Lack of real world experience - I think this has been the downfall of many currencies
These are the most important ones to me, in order of importance. Some of these are similar to the ones already mentioned.
Problem - CryptoCurrency investors and newcomers have been getting 'taken to the cleaners' over and over again, creating a negative experience for users, due to rampant greed
Solution - By protecting the price, DNotes has created a positive investing environment and positive first experience for many I'm sure
Problem - The learning curve for safe entry into cryptocurrency is very steep, and a deterrent for most people.
Solution - DNotesVault
Problem - Fear of losing your coins using an online storage services.
Solution - DNotesVault by design and backup guarantee fund. 100% offline storage, rather than using a hot wallet, accessible online, is one of those stupid simple yet brilliant ideas.
Problem - Rampant industry communities full of boys behaving badly.
Solution - Professional community management and issue mitigation.
Problem - The vast majority of people have underfunded or no retirement account at all
Solution - CRISP for Retirement program, with bonus interest on top of DNotes appreciation. My first funded retirement account!
Great list guys, keep them coming. Started a new thread for this on CryptoMoms as well.
