Topic: [ANN][VRC] VeriCoin Proof of Stake-Time Currency | New Roadmap Released - page 163. (Read 1356140 times)

Either way Kevondo, AKA  (Eugene) .

The whole veri community still has to overcome this and still make the next hike to raise the next milestone of coins.

When is the new forum due?, it was or maybe seems like it was a while back since it was said "wont be long now", yes im just asking so no bashing !.

I would like to add that i'm currently tuned into Reavons discussion on the VRC Radio with Kev.

So thanks for putting it all on loop/replay? so the community have the option to catch up. Thanks.

Arsene, you still don't get it:  but "...this deal has been changed so many times by so many different ppl that it has been hard to keep track." is both misleading AND incorrect. This deal has only been changed by one person, James. Only by him. And yes, he has changed it a couple of times -every single one in favor of Vericoin's community, it is important to say- but I find that you looking for in formation from other sources, when you have posted here, from the horse's mouth (not only James but also the devs of Vericoin), the truth, seem quite absurd... or worse.

Again: You still have it wrong. Quite. James is no longer asking for any personal compensation to him... except anything the the Vericoin community deems he deserved and decides to give to him when and if the results exceed the thresholds already set. It will be entirely VOLUNTARY. You get that, don't you? But ask James for further clarification before reaching quite "fou" conclusions on your own.

The other thing where you are 100% WRONG -so I am correcting you, as requested- is in the matter of the 2.6 million VRC "given" to SuperNET... NOTHING will be "given" here. It is, currently, an initial requirement of the SuperNET to have the candidates to be part of its core, invest 10% of their total value in SuperNET which, in turn, will invest the same amount in the candidate. So instead of "given" it would be a "swap" of equal value. Quite a different proposition.

Now, as James has explained, these things change and adapt depending on the many variables and circumstances along the way, so nothing is either guaranteed nor written on stone. And EVERYTHING will depend on the free will of the Vericoin community when those milestones are reached.

Which, like in the case of your advice regarding future potential legislation, is I am afraid, quite premature.

As for 60% being "nothing in this world of crypto..." I get your meaning, clumsy and absurd as it is, but it is still 60%: People have 13 now where they had 8... which is MORE than 60% but still good for reference purposes.

Now you are quite funny indeed when you state that you didn't go running around shouting the gains in Vericoin after the launch were "the Lupin effect"... Really funny. You know what? They weren't "the lupin effect". The lupin effect is, in a very twisted way, laughable (because laugh is good, which is the opposite of what you, lupin, represent). I'm sorry for being a bit blunt but coming here completely uninformed, spreading all kind of misinformation and somehow pretending that having 1/2 million VRC gives you any kind of authority, makes me feel that I need to be way blunt-er. Like medieval blunter. So I exercise quite a bit of restrain to keep it civil.

I hope you appreciate it.

What are you saying, are you holding vericoin, selling it or buying? Are you still supporting the operation or moving out from the coin?

This whole legality issue is one that is those messy problems that I like to avoid
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_Bitcoin_by_country

Now it used to be encryption itself was illegal and regulated like military grade explosives in the USA. So, to make any sense of this seems a waste of my time. I cannot hope to understand all the intricacies of the laws of any single country, let alone globally.

With the coming devaluation of the USD, the various levels of govt there will take more and more extreme measures to obtain "revenues", which is of course a nice way of saying taxes and fines.

So, I will keep on making the low level tech and rely on others to make the GUI that allows for its easy use and legal compliance. If there is some need for tech to split things up to be smaller than a threshold amount, just let me know, this is not a hard thing. If there are requirements to make the reportings of accts with a transaction volume over a threshold, I can implement virtual accts that are formed from a set of smaller accts. Or you can just send in the entire blockchain as a nice printout

@ James

The main and so far ONLY purpose of the regulation coming in the US is the PROTECTION of the consumers and investors. Investors are ALREADY quite responsible for their dividends, in crypto or anything else, and they MUST pay taxes on those. Already.

Now, it is presumable that part of the regulation coming will include the obligation of a carrier of funds to notify the authorities when a transaction exceeding X amount, takes place in its network. This is part of the obligation of banks, currently. Could it be exported to crypto? It seems quite unlikely (for no matter how big the amount it could be sliced into many smaller transaction, therefore going under the radar), so the presumption that peer-to-peer transactions, anonymous or not, would be against the law after regulation is implemented, is just that, a baseless presumption; now, when that is carried out to make the coin itself responsible, legally, for what the users do with the technology it provides, it is simply, at this point, preposterous.

Monsieur Lupin  has simply gone fou on us here ...

I live in New York....  Ben Lawsky can go fuck himself just like I told him the day he announced it on reddit. Good luck proving anything and if you do good luck trying to get me as I never open my door to strangers and do not have a phone. Most New Yorkers are sick of this shit just as I am, every week there is a new law or regulation followed by the new summons or ticket. This system is designed to be one big cash register for the government, I do not use banks anymore and most of my wealth is in precious metals for long term

wont investors and business move away from them laws?, seems its all electronic can be instantly moved to other accepting countries?.

Monsieur Lupin, you express yourself very poorly and, consequently, it is very hard to understand what you say. Some of it.

I believe you are worried by the potential inclusion of Vericoin in the SuperNET being a possible non-compliance aspect of possible (as a matter of fact, sure) regulation coming up in the US... while we all must be thankful for your felt concern, we also should do everything we can to push the Vericoin project forward, you know. And while you give credit to James for having unified the community, you fail to give him credit for several other things that, presumably, he has also brought, chief among them the technological know-how to bring Vericoin to the forefront of the most advanced coins in the market. And, although you give that credit to the community, the increase in volume and price, sorry monsieur, all "Jame's effect". So, as they say, we will cross the bridge of regulation when we get there. And, hopefully, we will do it with enough tools and resources to even influence that regulation coming, something we would have never been in position to do sans the "James effect".

You use the word "market" in several different ways, all wrong, I'm afraid. You use it as a synonym of "price", which is quite incorrect and then you use it in a very ambiguous way that I am unable to discern when you say "... with the amount of market promised to him...", which is just too confusing to even address. So I would just say NO, YOU ARE 100% wrong. And leave it at that, since no amount of explanations would convince you of the evident truth.

But you are extremely confused in a lot of things, besides those too: Mintpal is an exchange and, as such, lacks any power whatsoever to "... maybe just maybe mintpal would do the right thing and put vrc back to the price we had gotten it to b4 they at mintpal dropped the ball...". What did you expects exactly, that you even dare to call "the right thing"? You SURELY don't mean that somehow manipulating the price would be "the right thing", do you? And how would you figure an exchange can manipulate the price? It seems to me monsieur that "the right thing" that you hoped for is indeed a very nasty, illegal, punishable by law and otherwise impossible to carry out "thing".

Those plans that "we" (you and your group) had to bring in "REAL money and Corporate support..." to Vericoin, were anywhere in the horizon? Because when the coin bottomed (not "around 10", but actually below 8 sat) we experienced a prolonged drought of any kind of support, Corporate, REAL money or otherwise, from anywhere, while people was jumping ship right and left and all the way around while Vericoin was discounted as just another dead project by most across cryptoland. You know? It is very nice to offer someone food when he's hungry but if you offer a potential nice dinner sometime down the road, lets say MONTHS down the line, how do you think the hungry man would feel about it?

Finally, Monsieur, your 1/2 million VRC is worth today, still, even at these weekend discount prices, 60% more than it was worth before James' involvement in VRC. This is a FACT that I dare to suggest you should take advantage of since the project, to you Monsieur, has veered away from the idea that brought you in. Personally, while I hate that you will leave, I admit that I'd love to see you go.

Let me understand this. The fact that I am calling the sending of assets to the holders of NXTventure assets a "dividend" is somehow making all of VRC illegal in the USA?

Even though NXTventure has no direct relationship to VRC

Maybe the fact that I am involved in some things that USA does not like makes everything I do tainted?

If this is truly the case, then since I am involved in a lot of crypto projects, maybe people in USA need to immediately stop all usage of crypto? It is not possible to follow every law in every country, especially if they are contradicting of each other. I am not able to solve two mutually exclusive things at the same time.

I am making the crypto solutions. I do not have the ability to solve 100+ fiat compliance things, but maybe this is VRC's role. To make a "fiat GUI". To put a layer around my dangerous raw crypto to make it legal for the USA.

I do not advocate illegal activities! Please do whatever is needed to follow all your laws, we do not need troubles from the lawmen.

VeriCoin, at the core of the coin, is the same it is today. And it will always be that way. With integrated optional features, it's up to the user to decide whether they want to use things that may conflict with various regulations. There's no obligation to even run a wallet with those elements enabled, and we will offer both options.

I'm not sure what you're talking about re: 1.3M coins but nobody gave James any, just the option to purchase at the price the coins were worth earlier. Not only that, but JL donated them back to the VRC community.

Now people are trying to use NYC regulations as some kind of weapon against the coin.  People who can barely write a sentence are attorneys all of a sudden.  Absurd.  

Hmm FUD all at once form new accounts. Let me see how much weight your words have. HMMM Look a feather out weighs them.

Nice little double-up after the switch to anonymous by VRC.

Bravo. This is now a p&d coin. Congrats.

The way PoS works is that every coin gets a vote. That's why you can have one person with 51% attack the chain. That's the only way to stop people from making a lot of 1 VRC accounts with a vote as strong as yours or mine. It's a form of blockchain voting, similar to the US House of Representatives-- proportional representation.

A strong community like vericoin needn't worry about trolls.  VeriUnited...
