It is a good local solution that will become more and more popular, especially in developing countries, where the under-served and unbanked populations are at the highest.

It is important for us to keep in mind that technologies and systems to deploy them are always evolving for the better, and it is not essential for DNotes to build every component, everywhere, as part of the ecosystem to support DNotes.

The ecosystem can best be viewed as independent business opportunities. Once DNotes has the scale, entrepreneur around the world will realize that there are potentially attractive business opportunities, they will start helping themselves. I fully expect that many who are currently invested in the Bitcoin camp will eventually consider joining DNotes ecosystem. That is the beauty of the capitalistic system. They follow the opportunities where there is money to be made.

What I like the best about the prepaid bitcoin gift card is how much easier it would make buying DNotes for someone new!


"Coinplug to Roll Out World's Biggest Convenience Store Bitcoin Scheme"

"Coinplug's Richard Yun told CoinDesk that the cards make bitcoin easier for the average consumer to buy, potentially winning over newcomers who might find the experience of buying bitcoin through an online exchange or face-to-face daunting."

Interesting that almost every other coin in the CMC top 100 is up this morning with Bitcoin but FTC is still dropping.

I completely agree. I was mining Feathercoin long before DNotes launched, and I'm sure glad I sold them. In just over a year, FTC has gone from a high of $1.25, to a current value of under one cent.

Compare ours to feathercoin, which was pretty well established coin, long before DNotes.

I think we have more momentum.

I just noticed this as well, and that over 850,000 transactions have been completed. These numbers are very impressive!

Those charts are interesting. There are almost 400,000 known wallet addresses on the DNotes network. That impressed me.

The following blog post is worth reading. Brookings Institution is my one of favorite public policy nonprofit think-tanks. I wish regulators will be as gentle and hands-off as they had been with the internet for over two decades. Even just granting a "honey" period till 2020 will be enormously helpful. I am concerned that it will not likely to be the case because too many investors have been hurt by a relatively small number of bad actors.

 ‘Innovations in the Blockchain Will Outpace Policy, Let’s Not Slow it Down’

Tuesday, the Brookings Institution slipped in a blog post that compared Bitcoin to the Internet.
Mohit Kaushal, partner at Aberdare Ventures, and entrepreneur Sheel Tyle explained what the blockchain is and why it could important in a post for the TechTank blog. We've seen plenty of experts describing why the protocol underpinning the Bitcoin network could have many uses, but this one makes some interesting claims.

The conclusion is arguably the most interesting section of the post—especially considering the Brookings Institution is one of the oldest and among the most-respected public policy nonprofit think-tanks based on Embassy Row in Washington D.C. It reads:

“And much like the Internet in the late 1990s, we don’t know exactly how the Blockchain will evolve, but evolve it will.”

The institute warns against regulating the blockchain like a financial instrument. Belaboring the Internet comparison, they note that the backbone of the Internet, TCP/IP, was never regulated, even though it allowed for new financial instruments. The post continues:

“Had we over-regulated the Internet early on, we would have missed out on many innovations that we can’t imagine living without today. The same is true for the Blockchain. Disruptive technologies rarely fit neatly into existing regulatory considerations, but rigid regulatory frameworks have repeatedly stifled innovation. It’s likely that innovations in the Blockchain will outpace policy, let’s not slow it down.”

The Brookings Institution is a nonpartisan, American-centric think tank that focuses on economic issues. The nonprofit broadcasts a range of opinions, although it has often been deemed as liberal-leaning

Thanks you toshis.guru, I will add the links to our OP.

There has never been a better time to get in and buy some cheap bitcoin to then buy DNotes with.

When bitcoin went up to 900 - 1000 everybody was saying "Oh I wish it would come down a bit so I could buy some"...

Well, it just did!

Not too sure about that. Perhaps it takes a lot more than just a few "drunk" Bitcoin owners.  The sell volume has gone up significantly, around $100 million over the last 24 hours. Testing $150 would surprise me. I believe that there will be a lot of buyers at $160.

My Facebook news page has been going crazy with friends accusing Bitcoin of being "drunk" on a Wednesday night. Many holders seem to think the low was going to be around $150, a level that bitcoin has been testing.

Looking very forward to reading this independent press release.

We are happy for you that you finally have a chance to spend time with your son after 7 years. Keep those DNotes for the long term. It could end up to be a meaningful part of his retirement savings.

We are looking forward to a very good year. It will be nice, if one day, we earned the honor of other cryptocurrencies peg to DNotes for stability sake. That will be the day when we can truly be proud that we have done our job. In the mean time, it is unfortunate that every time when Bitcoin takes a tumble, many ended up with bruises.

Thanks, elrugrim. Hopefully, DNotes will help bring back a ray of sunshine when the article reached the news media over the next few days.

It is a rough day for our industry. This should re-enforce why DNotes has been doing things so differently.

Thank you qiwoman, glad to hear you have a chance to spend some time with your son, I'm sure you are very excited.

Sorry I have been busy this week with my Son who I did not see for 7 years but looking at this great news I am excited about what is to come.  I also showed him the DNOTES Vault with his little nest egg.. Keep up the wonderful work and next week I will be back to promoting DNOTES to Friends and Family..

Will keep an eye open.

Bitcoin Alternative DNotes Celebrates World's First Long Term Cryptocurrency Savings Plans And Several Innovative Initiatives

Long term cryptocurrency DNotes continues to celebrate progress made in 2014 with scheduled roll-outs of many more Cryptocurrency Investment Savings Plans (CR.I.S.P) using newly launched  DNotesVault.........

Welcome to the DNotes community HYPster! Thank you for the great question, as others have mentioned we love the idea, but it needs to be done right and that could take some time and resources.

I assume that TeeGee is using certain assumptions on behalf of our CR.I.S.P. for Kids generation. If we project that far in the future, those assumptions may not be that far out. Global commerce is conducted in a very large scale. Digital currency and the blockchain technologies will lead to a global system in more ways than one. Just being one of the major players in twenty years from now will make TeeGee’s number quite conservative. If his assumptions come anywhere close, RJF and I will be labeled as the conservative “old guys” by our children and grand children. But then we will have a lot of happy CR.I.S.P. owners. So that may not be so bad.
