Wholly crap are you Tom? I checked out your Github history and you have been active there for a long time. I am starting to love this project because of your background. Unfortunately I cant buy much every time I put a buy order against DOGE the price creeps up.
Anyway, I think a VOTE-OS could certainly be a hit by integrating the Crypto into the operating system's browser this is something no one has done before and who knows where it will take us. To get adoption by the community, the first release could be one that is used by the miners (similar to EthOS) that boots up and has all drivers etc ready to go. Then in turn the OS auto converts anything that has been mined by the system into VOTE coins using an API tied to an exchange.
The idea of paid AD removal to protect content creators as opposed to stealing with ADBlock, is actually from BAT, not me and their Brave browser (BAT: https://basicattentiontoken.org). Although I had for years thought of a similar solution, they are the ones who actually did it and when I saw it I thought someone had read my mind. The way it could work is that you can buy VOT coins that will go embedded inside the browser that also acts as your wallet, then you can chose to block off the ads by spending tiny amounts of VOT coins. The author of that website could signup with you to get a big cut of the VOT coins spent on his page. So we are talking about combining LINUX+Miner++Wallet+ADBlock+Chrome+"BAT ideas". Eventually the browser+wallet combo could spin off and be installed on Windows as a standalone product, while still be downloadable as a Crypto-Linux USB stick.
Future roadmaps:
The BTCZ.me technology could be embeded within the Browser or the OS.
Also some payment gateways need to get implemented INSIDE the browser such as this: https://btcz.in/#
Bitpay can be forked for Android wallet like BTCZ team has done.
