Sounds rather genius to me!

What do you thing about developing a payment system for Vericoin (and SuperNet) with NFC-Cards and mobiles?

It should be quite simple on the hardware side:  A raspberry pi with connected USB-NFC Reader and a simple touchscreen connectet to the SPI-Bus and some button of course.    Hardware cost approx. 60€.

Then NFC-payments could be inegrated into the Andorid and iOS wallet and some kind of VeriCardNFC or SuperNetCard

I had the same error when i compiled the wallet, the reason was that the objectfile was corrupted, because I accidently switched my PI off during the compilation.

Try to remove the file.

cd build
sudo rm bitcoinrpc.o
cd ..
sudo make (it should just compile the file you just removed and then link)

hey guys,

still trying to compile my own vericoin raspberry wallet 

i have received following error:

build/bitcoinrpc.o: file not recognized: File truncated
collect2: ld returned l exit status
make: *** vericoin-qt Error l

then it exits

I know there is a binary available but i want to compile it myself. What might be the problem?

My message has always been quite clear all along... including being the first one in this forum in favor of "your plan" when first proposed and no one knew who you were. Vericoin needed someone like you to bring the tech know-how that, unfortunately, our devs don't have. Now there's a possibility, a strong one, of going forward for real and at a good pace... if we are able to set egos and arrogance aside before personal conflict -inevitably- arises.

Back to business: Very few people has, so far, participated in "donating" (thank you, by the way, for giving back to the community the option). Like I have stated before, there are a number of things, quite positive all of them, that can and must be done with those funds -- especially if we get anywhere near 2 million coins -2.7 is completely absurd since at least 7-8 million coins are in exchanges-. Staking, to begin with, is the natural and profitable option; to create an "stabilizing fund", like Nautilus, is another worth considering for we must strive to reach a level of non-volatility that the merchants as well as non-initiated customers, will demand before adoption. And simply funding for projects that require investment. But, like I said, only a very few have gotten involved -albeit quite generously- so far. Much more is needed so it will be the bulk of the community pushing forward and pushing hard.

Hey, if having their stakes doubling in price only because of you don't bring the generosity (which in this case is only technically generosity). I don't know what will. But what we shouldn't do is to call "the community" some 50-odd (at best) people so far carrying the big burden.

Edited to add:

And this is a BIG problem going forward... for which we may have already found the solution: The vision of James with Vericoin as the entrance door from the FIAT world -a vision that coincides exactly with that of Pat, Doug and Dave, as well as the vast majority if not all in the community. We have discussed one of the main obstacles Vericoin -and everyone else- has: The be able to convert FIAT directly to Vericoin, in the US, requires paying a pretty hefty price... anywhere around $150k. Cryptsy paid it. Mintpal -I'm quite sure- will eventually pay it. It is cost-effective, to them. Will it be for Vericoin? IF we are really to go after some kind of "mass" market, definitely. Now, to raise $150k, up until now, has been chimeric and, definitely, within the circumstances, not advisable... but now, circumstances have changed. Drastically. To foresee a very significant increase in price in the more or less close future is not chimeric at all so, where $150k was a huge figure a week ago, unrealistic to be ever assimilated by this project, has become now something (potentially) quite accessible. I am not as optimistic as to believe that we will get to 0.001 BTC within 6 months (I hope I am wrong, of course), but half that seems not too difficult (only a triple from here), so lets assume we can get to something in between, something like 0.0007. Let's also assume that the donations reach 2 million VRC. Those 2 million would be worth $700,000. Even after returning to the "donors" the 10k sat, the community would still have $600k (not even counting the staking in between... or any appreciation of BTC from here to there). Definitely in that circumstance, $150k doesn't look unreachable at all, does it?

The other "problem" that we need to provide solutions for, in advance, is the upcoming, inevitable, regulation. It is not IF, it is when. Vericoin should still welcome it. How the potential integration in the SuperNET could affect compliance depends on what the regulation will demand. But this, in any case, is premature... except that Vericoin must be prepared -with tools, disposition AND RESOURCES- to be the first crypto currency welcoming regulation and be in full compliance and, if possible, with the resources to influence that the compliance is not too strict. Some level of privacy can and must be requested from legislators. Accountability will not be a problem IF the resources are there to cover the risks... yet another reason to make of this pot one as big as we can possibly muster.

So, for those still on the sidelines: Come on: You have doubled your money in just a few days, can't you really afford to give 10% for such purposeful endeavor?

Once again, I encourage the idea of creating an honor roll, if for nothing else, to be thankful to those generous enough to, along with James, having made this actually possible. It is something to be proud of -and thankful for. And it should inspire those with less generous inclinations in the community. It is indeed for a great set of causes.

Couldn't agree more. It's simply amazing how 1 weekend can completely change the outlooks on everything. I understand the dev team has been working hard night/day regardless of James showing up and great things were in the future regardless but this is just awesome! The ability to completely remove all FUD/trolls from an online chat forum is nothing less than a miracle.

Excellent plan.  Thank you for your response.

WOW!!! James has taken the phrase "Can't we all just get along" and taken it to a different dimension!!! Love it!!!

Thank you!

It means more to me that you are now part of VRC than whatever small effect I have had on price so far.

I now know that you meant well all this time, but circumstances just created a "brownian motion" where the conflict just made things go in circles. Now VRC will benefit from your intellect.

With everybody in harmony, the brownian motion is transformed to a laser beam!

James

P.S. Yes, I realize brownian motion are gas molecules and lasers are for photons, plz forgive the scientific inaccuracy. When people join together, anything is possible

I can't believe it... Barabbas making sense and contributing... Love it!  We are onto something GOOD here!  Cheers Barabbas!

My point exactly... with the added bonus that it will be a significant amount of coins staking and therefore reinforcing the blockchain and protecting the coins from attacks. Especially if the pot can get anywhere near 2 million coins. I already suggested a public honor roll, at least a voluntary one, with the devs listing their contributions to the fund. This could act as an incentive... direly needed for while the "donors" have been quite generous for the most part so far, I feel a very small part of the community has actually donated... in spite of the fact that we have practically doubled the price already exclusively on the "James effect".

No sense in not staking, just make sure to track the deposit amounts
I think that drkman's idea is pretty good. No sense in converting to BTC.

How about this.

1 year after funding is closed or when the price is above .001, there is a return of VRC. In the latter case, 100% of the donated value comes back. It will be a bit less than 10% of the coins you put in, but getting back all the value is the same as the scenario of the option being used.

Now if the price is .0005 to .001 after one year, then it will be more coins coming back than 10%, up to 20%, but again the outcome is similar to the option being exercised.

The unlikely case is that it is less than .0005, and I think in this case, it is just all returned, unless the donor chooses to keep it in.

If there are some external factors that make sense to change the 1 year cutoff, then it would require a stake weighted vote. Now with a united community and all the things that were already in progress, these unlikely scenarios of
Getting to .001 is a long term of working to improve the value and using the best ideas of the community and already I see a transformation into a can-do attitude. The solution to get the staking and the return of VRC, this is from VRC community, not me. I am just the crazy guy who made some impossible demands, that the VRC community achieved.

So, the power is strong within VRC. Know this. The "impossible" is just an excuse for the people who cant get things done.

The VRC devs are really contributing bigtime with the SuperNET project and shaping it to be much better than I can by myself. I am just one guy and need the help of everyone to make crypto all that it can be and this help from VRC community is making more time for me to do the tech. You should know I am the one to help my friends do as well as they can.

I am doing my best to prevent a huge price pump in the VRC and so please do not go all crazy from the optimism. The VRC is still some months away and it does have me as a friend, so be patient, support the devs, accumulate the VRC at the current prices. Dont chase the price, the weakhands (WH) will give you some favors. The WH are favorites of the BTCD community.

A wealthy community is a happy community. I will be a bit busy as I finish the Teleport and SuperNET tech, but I will try to monitor this thread. If there is anything I can do to help, just ask, but there are so many talents here, it is I that is asking for help!

James

P.S. If there are any expenditures that the VRC donors are all agreeing is making sense, then just have a vote that has 2/3'rds weight. Make sure not to spend more than half the fund! The community fund is for VRC community, it is not for me to decide such things.

Yeah I agree we don't need a BTC address, that was the original intent for simplicity.  Also drkman if you would be willing to build up the spreadsheet (which would help tremendously) then I would be happy to bring the coins online periodically to earn the interest accrued via coinage.  This is also another incentive to make the pot bigger as the community would be getting some significant interest payments over time.

veri true

+1

thanx!

I think we should not stake until we've raised what James considers to be a suitable amount. As this was originally intended to be a fundraising activity until we reach 2.7 million VRC, I think he can call the shots as to when we have enough in the escrow. When that happens, we will audit the donations and get both corresponding VRC and BTC addresses for each donor. That way we can split the share evenly, with precision, and know how to refund the coins. Right now, we just have a VRC address. Ultimately we will need a BTC address to pay the 10k satoshi/VRC payment. But if we start staking, the blockchain gets confusing and we really need it to be as simple as possible to track.

thanx buddy! really appreciate your work and drive for a successful future in crypto!

Some final details for SuperNET
Need to form a 7 member committee for authorizing expenditures as described in: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8748412

if you are interested in volunteering, please post in https://nxtforum.org/index.php?topic=5264.0

The SuperNET has at least 4 standard levels of integration and a couple non standard ones. So there is no in/out binary switch, think of it more like a quantum wave function, even with different orbital energy states. I hope this makes it easier to understand.

http://abyss.uoregon.edu/~js/cosmo/lectures/lec08.html is decent explanation.

James

Thanks EvilDave...Welcome to the Vericoin Community!
