With the flyers? Yeah, me too. It will be interesting to see.

I look forward to details of how this 'on-da-street' crypto-coining fares, particularly whether a range of strategies can be amalgamated.

Your daughter has done a great job! Thank you so much. Now that I'm at home, I'm going to print a whole lot myself and put them around my uni campus.

"Our forum may be a little quiet . . . "

IMHO:

the 'main thread' is the showcase. If a visitor -- from within or without the crypto realm -- visits, and they find regular activity, a lack of conflict, and responsiveness to requests (particularly tech-support), they won't be much concerned by the volume of posts.

     A challenge thrown down by the Old Man? Only a measly 50 a day? Let's raise the bar a notch or two. I can't seem to out think you, so I will apply brute force. Your post spurred me to highlight DNotes to Smokeys Daylily Gardens newsletter subscribers. In our Monthly Newsletter, I plan on explaining, highlighting, and giving deep discounts to Digital Currency users. That means we will be sending an "educational tool" to over six thousand people!

Thanks RJF! Please let your daughter know how much we appreciate it!

Deal!!

Flyer update:

As of today, 20 flyers have been posted at University of Maryland and University College on public bulletin boards in student areas and financial aid offices. Pictures available on request. I'm going to print more and select a new target....

Our forum may be a little quiet but we are actively sharing our success story with the rest of the world. Like most worthy projects, it takes much hard work, time and dedication that can only survive with unbreakable tenacity and the will power to deliver what I truly believe is the greatest technology revolution in the history of mankind. We may never see another greater opportunity to help so many people around the world with so little. This will have significant world changing implications resulting in massive job and wealth creation. For once, this is an equal opportunity investment of time and money not exclusively limited to just the privileged few.

Below is a copy of my open letter, emailed to anyone who accepted my invitation to connect and share what we have started. You can do the same with modification tailored to more effectively communicate with different individuals or groups. Call and tell your family and friends about it, follow with your email. Respectfully, here is my challenge. If I can send out 50 a day, may be you can match me with 2. Fifty to two sounds like a fair game. 50 to 2 it is. Let's get it going. I am sure it will go a long way in contributing to the success of DNotes.


*************************

Thank you very much for accepting my invitation. I am deeply involved in digital currency with an aggressive growth path, in part, fueled by our own ecosystem. You may Google “DNotes Alan Yong” to learn more about my involvement.

Both DNotes and CryptoMoms were started over a year ago and have gained great respect and admiration from our industry. DNotes is the most stable digital currency among over 500 coins. CryptoMoms has a worthy mission to encourage and assist women to participate in the digital currency world dominated by men. DNotesVault is a secure and easy to use web wallet, with 100% deposit guarantee that is verifiable to be always in excess of the total amount on deposit, and stored in cold storage at different locations. Its family of CRISPs (Cryptocurrency Investment Savings Plan) is designed for everyone worldwide; from the unborn to the most senior, from the poor to the super rich to participate with the opportunity to benefit from potential high returns, albeit high risk.

Our strategic plans and execution can best be characterized as highly scalable building blocks, positioned for rapid global adoption at the most opportune time. Compared to the rest of the industry, DNotes is uniquely different, both in substance and in style. It is built for mass acceptance, with every attempt to progressively make it as frictionless and user friendly as fiat currency, while exploiting many superior capabilities that only digital currency and the Blockchain technology can deliver.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or like to participate in our efforts to promote mass acceptance of digital currency. For your convenience I have provided some links below.

Best Regards,

Alan Yong

Pretty interesting article on how Asia uses bitcoin.

How Asia uses Bitcoin in one color-coded map

https://www.techinasia.com/asia-bitcoin-colorcoded-map/

Pretty much all of my investments are in cryptocurrency lol.

5-10% does sound reasonable though.

I wasn't able to access the Wall Street Journal article, so I can't be sure what the intentions are.  The standard advice right now is 5 - 10% of your total portfolio should be in higher risk investments in order to have the returns needed to fund retirement or other long term goals.  That 5 - 10% should be diversified somewhat, so it is possible for a 1% recommendation for  EACH high risk investment, but not for the overall high risk allocation (as the article seems to imply).  Considering this is old school Wall Street advice, to many of the investors 1% of their portfolio may represent $20,000 and they can dip their toes in without worry.

You are right though on the opposite end of the investor scale, if all you have to invest is $100, and provided losing it isn't going to bring you to tears, I would chance a much higher % on something that has the possibility of a huge gain.  That $100 invested in the traditional way is going to amount to almost nothing in the future anyway.

I am also very comfortable recommending 10% in higher risk investments and believe in time the tables will turn.  Five years from now, DNotes will no longer be considered a high risk investment and it may be that people are wary of stocks and bonds being dumped because of the ageing baby boomers.

That is what really caught my attention as well. It should alleviate any fear of buying or selling as far as the US government is concerned, as long as you are abiding to the existing financial laws. 

The more people I started communicating with the more obvious it becomes that there is a huge knowledge deficit of Bitcoin and digital currency. Even among the people who. attempted to promote Bitcoin. have not been able to take it very far. So it does surprise me that the investment community is just beginning to take a closer look at it and most of those who are involved are extremely cautious.

Allocating $1 to be invested in digital currency for every $100 invested in a balanced portfolio come across with a big red sign that says, "Extreme Caution". To me that is another media bias for being way too conservative.

What if that $1 invested in digital currency is worth $3 at the end of 12 months, and the remaining $99 is worth $101 with a total worth of $103; how much it that going to help?  The $1 invested in digital currency, assuming that it was DNotes, this case gained 200%, and the balance went up 2%. So you made $3 for every $100 invested. Big deal! This could be another problem dragging an already confused industry down. Personally I am comfortable in recommending a 10% allocation invested in high risk portfolio situations. However, it should be done with good due diligent.

Let us use a point of reference. Each DNotes today cost about 1 penny, or about 100 DNotes per $1. DNotes is substantially better established today than Bitcoin was on 22nd May 2010 when it cost 10,000 Bitcoin for two pizza. At today's price 10,000 Bitcoin is worth $2.25 million.

We do not always learned from history. In my opinion. again, many will miss the boat. Read what you can but don't always believe in what you read.

Finally someone in the media is paying attention to the investment potential of cryptocurrency:

"ATTENTION INVESTORS IN SEARCH OF HIGHER RETURNS: CONSIDER BITCOIN"

With all the questions undermining stock and bond yields nowadays, it only makes sense for investors to take a serious look at bitcoin’s earnings potential. Look for the financial community to pay closer attention to bitcoin in the present investment environment.

Investors looking to diversify their portfolios should consider bitcoin and digital currency, according to this past weekend’s “Weekend Investor” report in The Wall Street Journal. The article, titled “In Search of Higher Returns” featured a shiny, logoed bitcoin rising as one hand gives a 100-dollar bill to another outstretched hand...

More write-up on CryptoMoms:



By Forexminute - Deepak Tiwari | Bitcoin | Apr 20, 2015 8:52AM BST

CryptoMoms, a Bitcoin forum for women, is celebrating its anniversary and continuing to encourage and assist women worldwide to participate in Bitcoin and digital currency. Moreover, as it is celebrating its first anniversary after officially launching one year ago on April 16, 2014, promises to bridge the gap between the women and the cryptocurrencies.

In a press release the Bitcoin forum for women, CryptoMoms says that in spite of the troubling gender gap being well recognized in the cryptocurrency and Bitcoin space, most industry efforts to help improve the situation have shown little result. It says that most reports indicated a slight improvement from over a year ago by about 2%.

Moreover, as CryptoMoms is becoming increasingly popular among parents and grandparents since it launched cryptocurrency investment savings plans for kids (CRISP) last December, it is trying to reach to people even more vigorously than ever. Also, DNotes, CryptoMoms and DNotesVault have added savings plans for retirement and for students worldwide.

At the occasion of the first anniversary CryptoMoms says that it has become quite apparent that moms care deeply about the financial future of their children and their financial means to get a good education. It says that digital currency, such as DNotes which are though at infancy, offer potential high returns and superior advantages as a form of payment.

Nonetheless, CryptoMoms is celebrating the first anniversary as a gateway for women into the world of digital money overwhelmingly dominated by men. It is challenging the dominance of men in the cryptocurrency ecosystem providing plenty of vital information and easy guides for women newcomers as well as a strong and helpful community.

CryptoMoms Introducing Women to Bitcoin Vigorously
The press release claims that the forum alone attracts up to 272 visitors daily, an impressive number considering that far less than 10% of the cryptocurrency community is women. This is quite astounding and successful given it is just one year when the forum was formed. CryptoMoms remains true to its mission with multiple projects to bring women on board.

CryptoMoms is inviting women to learn, or to help teach others, about cryptocurrency, investing, retirement, and the many opportunities evolving in this new industry. Nonetheless, with rich content on everything one needs to know to get started in the digital currency space; CryptoMoms continue to attract women to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency ecosystem.

This was an interesting article. 

"He further characterized the US government's sale of confiscated bitcoin at auction as "implicit sanction" and a sign of institutional acceptance."  They can't undo that sale - bitcoin is here to stay.

Would your merchants like to sell the Dnotes they take, even (particularly) large amounts, without 'slippage'?

We are facilitating this (with Our Coin at this point). At a kindergarten level. Fledgling. Nascent. Proof-of-Concept.

Bitcoin Forum For Women, CryptoMoms Celebrates First Anniversary Continuing To Encourage Womens Participation In Cryptocurrencies

CryptoMoms continues to encourage and assist women worldwide to participate in Bitcoin and digital currency, as it celebrates its first anniversary after officially launching one year ago on April 16, 2014.

Illinois, USA – April 19, 2015 /MM-BitcoinPR/ —

In spite of the troubling gender gap being well recognized in the cryptocurrency and Bitcoin space, most industry efforts to help improve the situation have shown little result. Most reports indicated a slight improvement from over a year ago by about 2%. The statistics came as no surprise for CryptoMoms which has strongly advocated a gentler and more inclusive approach with a friendly and helpful community environment.

As long time CryptoMoms Community Manager Rocky explains:

“CryptoMoms is the wave of the future to get women involved in the cryptocurrency world. Empowering women to get into the financial world has been a struggle. With Cryptomoms it is centered around women, designed for women to communicate and get involved in their own finances. Communication and understanding finances is very important with so many single women in the world. It is time women become involved at a higher level and manage with confidence their own finances.”

CryptoMoms celebrates its first anniversary as a gateway for women into the world of digital money overwhelmingly dominated by men. The site provides plenty of vital information and easy guides for newcomers as well as a strong and helpful community. The forum alone attracts up to 272 visitors daily, an impressive number considering that far less than 10% of the cryptocurrency community are women. As the one year mark passes CryptoMoms remains true to its mission with multiple projects aiming to bridge the gender imbalance.

Although CryptoMoms was created by, and is fully funded by the DNotes team, it has positioned itself as a currency neutral site giving free access to industry peers to promote their products and services. Dozens of coins have benefited from this free platform to introduce and promote their coins. Many have commented very favorably on CryptoMoms’ commitments to provide a culture of trust and mutual respect while fulfilling its genuine efforts to assist women and others to acquire the basic knowledge about digital currency. Supporters from other coins have often shared their knowledge and assisted many new participants.

Alan Yong Co-Founder of CryptoMoms, DNotes and DNotesVault has frequently pointed out that Bitcoin is the greatest technology revolution since the Internet with significant world changing implications resulting in a quantum shift. Unlike the Internet, Bitcoin and Blockchain technologies are much more complex and far reaching with even more massive job and wealth creation potential than the Internet. DNotes is also committed to working with CryptoMoms in assisting women small business owners and women organizations. This is truly a worthy cause that the most fortunate 1% can participate to make a world of difference.

CryptoMoms is becoming increasingly popular among parents and grandparents since it launched cryptocurrency investment savings plans for kids (CRISP) last December. Since then DNotes, CryptoMoms and DNotesVault have added savings plans for retirement and for students worldwide. It has become quite apparent that moms care deeply about the financial future of their children and their financial means to get a good education. Digital currency, such as DNotes being at its infancy offers potential high returns and superior advantages as a form of payment.

Chase, a devoted community member and the brain-child of CRISP pointed out that,

“With cryptocurrency, we have the opportunity to reach women from all walks of life and from every corner of the world. It has the power to help women by addressing poverty, providing economic inclusion, and allowing them to participate in the massive job and wealth creation of a new industry. Cryptocurrency has the potential to provide women with a secure financial future that otherwise may be unattainable. It also allows woman to start and operate a business in locations around the world that have no banking access.”

She concluded by inviting everyone to.

“join us at CryptoMoms to learn, or to help teach others, about cryptocurrency, investing, retirement, and the many opportunities evolving in this new industry.”

With rich content on everything one needs to know to get started in the digital currency space; CryptoMoms continue to be vital for the introduction of women to the unprecedented opportunities offered by Bitcoin, digital currency and cryptocurrencies more widely.
