Obviously feel free to offer them to visit Quebeco.in, even thought I'm worried members of a "francophonie" group will shoot them selves after reading 1 or 2 of my terrible post filled with bad grammar and structure lol.
I wouldn't worry, since many of them make plenty of grammatical errors. It's a mixed bag, some of them are French language professionals, while others are simply content with being themselves. Many of them just barely have the computer literacy needed to get on the internet and follow that facebook group. So it would be wishful thinking that you could sell to that particular type the idea that they could figure out and manage cryptocurrency wallets. Although perhaps their children or grandchildren.
I too have an address specifically for the Quebeco.in community, but I'm not sure if I should advertise it. And I'm still not sure how I will proceed to share the QBC it contains, but I have a few ideas and I am waiting to see how things develops. We've got a few years a head of us
I was looking back at what we were doing just after the Québecoin IPO. There were free Québecoins given away to those people who retweeted a message about Québecoin. I think the problem with that approach is that down the line there is still no vision about how those people would be able to use those coins for any sort of practical purpose. Also, it excludes all but those who had the technical chops to navigate how to set up a crypto wallet and then go through all the steps involved with receiving and sending coins. In my opinion we should also try to include a certain number of people who have no clue how to do any of this, and put the whole gamut of our crypto resources at their disposal.
Initially, the uses for Québecoin are very limited. I am thinking that the very first use could be as tipping feature on a website that has uniquely Québecois content. The owner of the webpage could add something at the bottom such as: "if you found this information useful, feel free to make a tip...I accept Québecoins". Even though at first the only people who will be able to tip their page would be us. It would communicate the concept to other visitors who could then click on a link that would explain what Québecoin is, and how they can participate in it's development.
Once a certain amount of Québecoin tips have been accumulated, one of us could exchange it for bitcoin on bittrex.com and use it to order something for the website owner (who perhaps doesn't know how to do any of that sort of thing). It would probably only be something modest like a box of pens or a memory stick, since we don't have a lot of bitcoin weight yet.
