I haven't quite figured it out yet, but the energy of this community is unique.

And . . . I am deeply impressed, Benefactor, that you hyphenated the compound adjective!

The Blue Crypto Award  Official Nominees









*** Voting has now ended ***

Voting has ended early, on October 9th, instead of the listed October 16th, as there hasn't been any new votes for 9 days, and this will allow much more time to contact the winning nominee and put together an award presentation for UNO's birthday on the 18th.

[edit:  strikethrough has been added to voting addresses, as they should no longer be used, since voting has ended.  Anyone can still use the voting addresses on an UNO explorer to see the votes for themselves!]



...And here are your nominees for The 2014 Blue Crypto Award!...

The Blue Crypto Award  How to Vote


For patrons unfamiliar with using cryptocurrencies please refer to the Beginners Guide, below.  For those experienced with cryptos, just send 0.1 UNO to the corresponding voting addresses of your favorite nominees.  Please only vote once per person per each nominee, but you are welcome to vote for multiple nominees.  

To alternatively vote with DOGEcoins, read this post. (link)


*** VOTING HAS NOW ENDED, October 9th ***




BEGINNER'S GUIDE


Firstly, WELCOME to the exciting world of cryptocurrencies!  In this brief guide, we will only aim to get you up to speed so that you can participate in The Blue Crypto Award event by voting with your own cryptocurrency. UNO is not Bitcoin, but is a different, more scarce cryptocurrency, and it is UNO that you will need to vote with for The Blue Crypto Award.

On Unobtanium's (UNO) official website, http://unobtanium.uno/, you can find 6 exchanges that sell UNO under the heading, "Find Unobtanium".  This is the simplest way to get your own UNO and use it to vote in The Blue Crypto Award.  Even better, though, you can secure your own wallet on your own device using the wallet downloads on the same website found under the heading, "Store Unobtanium", and best secure your UNO, however you've purchased it.

Thank you for joining the expanding Unobtanium Community!!!  Best wishes.

+Nominees should have their invention(s), discover(ies), and innovation made within this decade.

+The invention/innovation made by the person has to be beneficial to humanity.

+There should be a broad consensus about the beneficial nature of the nominees’ innovation. Please avoid controversial candidates.

+The innovation of the nominee has to be one that is beneficial for the ecosystem or to better the life of people.

+Scientific advancements are preferred, but even artistic work may be considered for approval as nominee accomplishments, if it has successfully improved the broader reach of Humanity.

+Include links to online articles, photos, and other support for your recommended nominee in this thread.

+We will award only individuals or possibly very small teams of private people. We will not award institutions, companies, universities or people who have already reached notoriety as the super famous/rich; individual inventors and innovators already within the field of cryptocurrencies are largely exempted and may be accepted as official nominees, providing their contribution(s) to Humanity are significant.
