Ok now for some news, I've talked with a member of this forum from Montréal to prepare a process to secure the premine for Québec. I think it's a great idea, especially since we have long term targets for airdrops. So I'll be collaborating with him and keeping everyone updated on the process too. This way the premine will need at least 2 people to be accessed and will be put on a variety of cold storage.
The member is 'Brunic'
With his collaboration we'll be able to bring QBC to a another level of trust which will benefit the coin itself and everyone who believes in it.
I confirm this.
I'm not participating in the IPO, I'm a miner, so I'm interested in having a good mining environment. The threat of having the dev dumping the pre-mined coins on the market doesn't create a good mining environment. I want the trust in the dev to be irrelevant for the pre-mined coins. At the same time, I'm curious about the concept of a "nation-coin" and would love to see this experience go farther than what we've seen until now from other coins.
The process to secure the coins is not completely defined yet, but I can give some basic elements of it.
- The process for securing the pre-mined coins will start AFTER the launch. It's to give us time to do this correctly and let JPGagnon do a successful launch of his coin. Note that for a certain period of time (couple of weeks maximum), the pre-mined QBC will be in the hands of the dev.
During that period of time, I cannot vouch for the security of any of the pre-mined coins. - The pre-mined coins will be moved to a different wallet when we start securing them. This wallet will be in cold storage in a bank vault with multiple back-ups. I was thinking of putting a copy on a CD, an USB key and an hard drive at the minimum. That way, in a case of degradation, (we fail and drop poutine with maple syrup on them!), it doesn't destroy every media in the same way.
- To access those pre-mined coins, we will need at least 2 person. The access will also be controlled by the bank. I would love to have something where the bank vault can't be physically accessed until the airdrop and the bank refuse the access before the date.
I'll keep the process transparent and will keep you informed.
Hi guys,
First of all, congratulations on the launch, it seems to be going well. I hope it continues this way.
I see some worries about this coin being a scamcoin because of the premine. All I can say for now is that we are building a process to secure the coins, like described in the post above. JP is going to be busy for a few days with the launch, because, at this point, it's more important having a successful launch than securing the pre-mine.
I'll keep you independently informed of how it's going.
